Gaffron said this would have to be discussed with the Corp of Engineers. Filips said he was informed that the issue needed to be resolved with the City first before review by the otheragency.Filips said he would need two growing seasons before removal of the fence. Lindquist <br />noted there were fir trees on the property. Filips said he would need more screening than <br />those trees provide. <br />There were no public comments. <br />Lindquist said he would not want to see fencing placed on other lots and asked that the <br />fence be removed within three years. Schroeder agreed that the fence should not have <br />been constructed but noted the unique headlight problem. Filips also noted that there are <br />numerous tree stumps on the lot indicating trees have been removed. He said other <br />properties in the area have more vegetation. <br />Schroeder moved, Lindquist seconded, to approve Application #2322 for an afler-the-fact <br />variance for the 6’ temporary fence to be removed in a time period not to exceed 2-1/2 <br />years from this date to allow the vegetation plan to replace the fencing due to the problem <br />with headlight glare. <br />McMillan questioned whether there was room to plant trees in front of the fence. <br />Lindquist said the vegetation plan could allow trees to be placed on either side of the <br />fence. <br />Vote: Ayes 5, Nays 0. <br />(#11) #2325 LAKE COUNTRY BUILDERS ON BEHALF OF JOHN AND CINDY <br />OLSON, 950 NORTH ARM DRIVE - Variance for bluff setback to add a porch and <br />replace an existing deck to an existing residence - 9:00-9:19 p.ni. <br />The Certificate of Mailing and .Affidavit of Publication were noted. <br />A representative of Lake Country Builders v. ?s present.
