Gaffron stated if those walls are <br />now gone, the applicants’ intent is to replace them with something different, and what is before the <br />Planning Commission is what is being proposed. <br /> <br />Ciliberto stated all of the walls were removed during the beginning stages of demolition.

Leskinen stated she was surprised when she visited the site <br />yesterday that the other walls were gone, but that there is silt fencing up and it appears to be holding the <br />ground in place. Leskinen stated it is a reasonable request. <br /> <br />Thiesse stated he would like a condition of approval to be that a plan be presented regarding the steel. <br />Thiesse stated a steel sheet wall has a maritime look, which would be okay, but that it does not appear the <br />applicants have a good idea of what type of wall it will be specifically. <br /> <br />Schoenzeit moved, Thiesse seconded, to recommend approval of Application No. 14-3664 , David <br />Schmid and Angela Ciliberto, 3309 Crystal Bay Road, granting of a variance and a conditional use <br />permit, subject to Staff’s recommendation and subject to submittal of a plan depicting how the steel <br />is to be used prior to appearing before the City Council.
