It was discovered that the <br />retaining wall at the top of the bank leading to the lake was in a near state of coU^se and <br />measures needed to be taken immediately to safeguard bank before spring thaw and rains. <br />The contractor failed to call for inspections during the reconstruction of walls, although, <br />contractor did work with the City Engineer on the project. Since inspections would not <br />confirm that the wall had been installed as required, the Engineer asked that a letter be <br />submitted for the record. <br />There were no public comments. <br />Rowlette felt there should be no after-the-fact penalty due to the circumstances. <br />Rowlette, moved, Nolan seconded, to approve Application #1986 for an after-the-fart <br />conditional use permit and setback variance for retaining wall with the recommendation <br />that no penalty be assessed. Ayes 7, Nays 0. <br />(#5) #1987 LARRY PH.LAR, 2705 ETHEL AVENUE - VARIANCE - PUBLIC <br />HEARING - 8:30-8:40 P.M. <br />The Affidavit of Publication and Certificate of Mailing were noted.
