Murphy stated he <br />would not be in favor of the monuments and that he would like to see the deck reduced to 180 square <br />feet. <br /> <br />Marzan inquired whether they would be able to put something at the top of the stairs to prevent the <br />children from accessing the stairway. <br /> <br />McMillan suggested it be something that could be removed in perhaps five years or so once the children <br />are older. <br /> <br />Rahn moved, Murphy seconded, to approve the vegetation removal variance, the conditional use <br />permit, and hardcover variance to allow for reconstruction of the stairs, subject to the condition <br />that the hardcover not exceed the existing 180 square feet, subject to the monuments being <br />removed, and with the applicant being allowed to construct some type of structure at the top of <br />the stairs to prevent children from accessing the stairway.
