Motion, Ayes*6, Nays^O, Motion passed. #1373 DAVE BISS 1635 CONCORDIA STREET CONTITIOHAL USB PERMIT PUBLIC HEARING 7:51 P.M. - 7:57 P.M. The Affidavit of Publication and Certificate of Mailing were duly noted. The applicant was present for this matter. Zoning Administrator Mabusth informed the Planning Commission that Mr. Eiss was seeking a conditional use permit and variance for land alterations in the 0-75* setback area. Mr. Eiss's new residence is located within a pre-existing retention area which serves the 1.44 acre watershed, Mr. Bozonie, a neighbor to the south of Mr. Eiss, communicated to the City his understanding of the drainage pattern for the area. Public Works Director Gerhardson has recommended the use of the drainage swale or underground tile because a private drainage system to the south would have a significant impact upon the Trainor property. Gerhardson has confirmed that the existing drainage ditch within the Trainor property is not a public drainage way. Chairman Kelley questioned the number of trees that would need to be removed if a 40* wide swale were installed. Mabusth estimated that many trees would need to be removed. She was unable to specify the exact number. She further added that the City was not in favor of this option, but would prefer the underground drainage tile based on the degree of impact within the lakeshore protected area. Chairman Kelley expressed his preference for option 3 and suggested tabling this item until further information could be reviewed. Because of the urgency in resolving the runoff problem oefore the Spring thaw, it was suggested that this matter be brought directly from the March 20 Planning Commission Meeting to the March 27 Council Meeting. There were no comments from the public regarding this matter and the public hearing was closed. It was moved by Chairman Kelley, seconded by Planning Commissioner Moos, to table this item until more hydraulic information could be gathered by the applicant and Mr. Zuckman. Mabusth indicated to Mr. Eiss that she would provide him with the criteria needed by the City before the March 20th Planning Commission Meeting. Motion, Ayes«6, Nays»0, Motion passed.
