Carl has asked the City to consider vacatinq a portion of a lakeshore access easement o.f 33' . The access is used basicallv in the winter months by snowmobilers and fishermen seekinq lake access to their fish houses. The anplicant asks that the portion that is unused and which he maintains be vacated. "_'he propert_y o�aner on the southern edge of the access, Dr. Sullwold, approves of the vacation. There were no comments fror.i the audience except for Dr. Sullwold' s apnroval at the public hearing. Unfortunately, the enclosed survey was not seen b_y the PlanniMg Commission when they made their recom- r.tendation on September 10 , 1979. The�� were under the impression that 40' remained o.f a 55' easement.
