The City’s concern is with where the property boundary will end up. The actual area Manley owns within the east 0-75 ’ lakeshore yard was at that time unknown. Regarding the concrete stairs alongside the garage. GafTron stated that they extended into the road right-of-way, but the City had never received a complaint about them. He stated he would defer to publie works coneeming any issue with the stairs. Murphy stated that if staff felt the stairs were a problem, then Manley should correct them. Sanseverc suggested Gappa look at the steps and determine if they would be a problem for the plows. Concerning the deck on the west side of the house, constructed without zoning approval, Gaffron staled that there had been a deck there that was tom off and replaced with a new- one.

He stated that they had reduced the deck size and amount of hardcover. Majror Peterson stated that the grade of the walkout level and undereutting of the lakeshore bank issues would be tabled, along with the proposed boulder wall landscaping plans. Murphy asked if tabling it would keep the applicant and his neighbors from installing the riprap. Gaffron stated that if they received a Watershed District permit, and it wouldn’t affect the rest of the property, then Manley could proceed w ith the riprap. Murphy asked if there was an advantage to doing it with the lake frozen over. Manley stated it would probably be a spring project, done with a backhoe. Barrett suggested they direct the applicant back to the Planning Commission with no motion needed. Gaffron stated they had the ability to extend the deadline to March 12,2003. If Manley submits the new variance applications by December 18.2002, he could be finished in March of 2003. l^lurphy moved, and Sansevere seconded, to remand the appikation for conditional use permit and variance for land alteration and hardcover within 75’ of the shoreline back to the Planning Commission.
