MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING APRIL 17, 1989 ZONING Fli^ #1367 HARRJS-CONTINnED or dry. Kelley asked Hr. Harris what he would do if the draintile were not disturbed and all the water ran out. Mr. Harris said that if the pond reached its maximum capacity, all of the water would r in out the draintile. If the pond dried out, that would not be a problem. Planning Commissioner Brown asked Mr. Harris if his main objective was to have a decorative pond or a dry area. Mr. Harris replied that achieving a dry area was his main priority. He questioned whether cleaning the draintile would allow it to function. Kelley said that would probably help, but no one knew where the draintile was located. Kelley said that in light of the knowledge of draintile existing, that the City would definitely want to request a drainage easement. Chairman Kelley said that the Planning Commission must address the issue of whetJier or not the current water flowage from this property will be disturbed when a pond is put in place. Johnson said that the applicant should be required to maintain the draintile if he encounters it while putting in the pond. Mrs. Betty Butterfield said that Mr. Harris's pond would come within 50' of their property line. She said that what would be an attractive addition for Mr. Harris but would be an unattractive nuisance for her. There were no further comments from the public regarding this matter and the public hearing was closed. It was moved by Planning Commissioner Johnson, seconded by Planning Commissioner Cohen, to recommend approval of item #1367 for Conditional Use Permit to construct a pond subject to conservation and flowage over the pond. It is further recommended that if the applicant encounters the draintile, he should maintain the existing drainage that runs through it. Kelley suggested that the flowage and conservation easement be taken as far as the draintile runs on the applicants property if that can be determined. Johnson amended his motion to include that condition, Cohen seconded. Motion, Ayes*6, Nays*0, Motion passed. #1375 DAVID PRICE 2914 CASCO POINT ROAD VARIANCE CONTINUATION OF PUBLIC BEARING 8:26 P.M.

Assistant Planning and Zoning Administrator Gaffron said that the applicants were originally seeking an average lakeshore setback variance as well as a variance to slightly increase hardcover.
