-i • L ■ <br />P-MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OF JANUARY 18, 1982 Page 7 <br />W <br />-H <br />Speeter stated that the lagoon area has filled xn from <br />the erosion problems of his lakeside banks. He felt <br />that the Hanson letter spoke mainly of the problems of <br />dredging wetland areas. <br />Planning Commission advised Speeter that his lagoon area <br />was originally a wetlands. <br />Mayor stated that his lagoon was always a wetland and has <br />been returning to a wetland for the past few years. <br />McDonald noted that if it was dredged it would disturb <br />the wetland vegetation. <br />iSv <br />•Rovegno stated that he thought a building and grading <br />permit was all that was needed for the retaining wall. <br />Mabusth noted that a conditional use permit application <br />was required by Ordinance. <br />McDonald read the zoning code section 31.700 dealing with <br />the requirements of the conditional use permit application <br />for the construction of a retaining wall. <br />Rovegno felt that the lakeshore banks erosion hadn’t been <br />solved by the ''flume" structure, because that seemed to <br />^ have.centered the erosion into the middle of the lagoon. <br />Habusth stated that the retaining wall could have channeled <br />the drainage away from the lagoon banks. <br />Speeter gave the following reasons for requesting dredging <br />in his lagoon area: <br />1 - Navigation - He stated that it was dredged in 1967, <br />r When he bought his property he could have bought <br />three other lots but chose this one because of the <br />navigational rights. He noted that this was a <br />very long walk from his residence to the long dock. <br />2 - He felt this was maintenance dredging because of the <br />DNR permit in 1967. If he didn’t dredge the <br />lagoon area it would become very swampy aesthetically. <br />Mabusth noted that the MCWD would not act on the dredging <br />application unless sedimentation or erosion problems were <br />solved first. <br />Rovegno questioned the changes in the lagoon area created <br />by erosion. He wanted to know where the actual dredging <br />would be done. <br />% <br />Mabusth asked for verification of the area to be dredged as <br />the permit suggests dredging in the Henninger portions of the <br />lagoon. <br />(SPEETER CONT..) <br />• i • . . .• <br />1 <br />''B <br />liii <br />Jkrn <br />'• • jf- : .'i,Jf <br />■' <br />; 4 <br />4 i
