uriom Of fBi ftjuniivs cQMiissioH imtiiie Ao^si ai, i§«i- lOnHG PILB tl430HK»SB BOMBS COBTIliOBD Mr. Charles HoMaeyer, 4125 Oak Street, said that he objectedi to the height of the gazebo because the roof would interfere with his lake view. Planning Comisissioner Cohen asked for clarification. He asked Mr. Hommeyer if he were sitting in houser looking toward' the lake, if the gazebo roof would obstruct his view. Nr. Honuneyer replied that his view would be obstructed. Planning Commissioner Bellows questioned how that would be possible? Planning Commissioner Hanson said that he had looked at the site with the sight issue in mind and in his opinion, the Hommeyers would see the roof of the gazebo, but it would not interfere with their lake view. With the use of a sketch, Mabusth showed that the Hososeyers would be looking away from the lake if they were viewing Mr. Morse's gazebo. Ms. Byrne Peter, a neighbor to the north, also expressed concern about the gazebo obstructing her view of the lake. She said that IS' was an excessive height for the gazebo. Ns. Peter, using a straight edge and a sketch, showed that the gazebo in fact would not interfere with her view of the lake. Mrs. Hommeyer said that she was not sure that a future buyer of this home would like the improvements being made at the lakeshore. She said she would be more in favor of these improvements if Mr. Morse intended to live in the hone he was building. There were no further comments from the public regarding this matter and the public hearing was closed. Planning Commissioner Bellows opined that the proposed gazebo could be precedent setting. She said that Mr. Morse's gazebo had more structure than she would associate with a typical gazebo. Bellows observed that the proposed gazebo resembeled a SBiall cabin or bunkhouse. She note^ that she was not opposed to a gazebo being located where Mr. Mcm^e was proposing, but she did object to the structure itself. It was moved by Chairman Kelley, seconded by Planning Commissioner Cohen, to recommend approval of the construction within 7S' of the lake and the hardcover necessary for construct.on of the tram, as well as grade level decking. Kelley said that he would not approve the gazebo design presented. Planning Commissioner Johnson questioned whether the design of the gazebo was an issue for the Planning Commission to determine. He said that the proposed design resembled a gazebo. Motion, Ayes»3, Hanson, Johnson, Nay, Motion passed.
