Ms. Eckhardt <br />explained the process of notification regarding this <br />hearing noting that approximately 30 people were in <br />attendance. <br />Chairman Kelley read in the record a letter from Kent <br />Carlson, 3498 North Shore Drive, voicing opposition to <br />disturbance to his property during this project. <br />There were no other comments from the public and the <br />public hearing was closed. <br />It was moved by Johnson, seconded by Bellows, to <br />recommend approval of the conditional use permit and <br />variance application of the MWCC, finding that all <br />standards have been satisfied and such approval to <br />include any amendment to any of the plans for each <br />specific lift station , subject to staff reviewing the <br />erosion control plans prior to Council review.
