Reese seconded. that the committee recom mend the board amend the variance Order to change the limit to 5’ side setbacks and eliminate the mention of the boat and dock width. DISCUSSION: Babcock said he could not support the motion because any action to overturn an Order should be initiated by the Board. Reese said he does not remember any discussion of a 7’ boat width at the Public Hearing. He believes there is an error in the Findings and the District has created a hardship for the Stocks. Reese said the District should not design docks or specify boat sizes* VOTE: Foster and Reese voted aye. Babcock and Markus voted nay. Motion failed. Babcock asked that the item be placed on the Board agenda at the request of the Stocks. Markus mentioned the possibility of the Board reconsidering the variance request and the variance being denied. Babcock said he will entertain a motion from the Board at the ne.xt Board meeting, to consider amending the Order. It is his belief that will require a 2/3 vote from the Board.
