wetland setback is a city imposed restriction on building and grading activity and <br /> is intended to preserve the buffer by establishing a minimum separation between <br /> buildings and hard cover and the buffer. <br /> Discussion regarding the differences between the wetland buffer and wetland <br /> setback followed. <br /> Barnhart mentioned that there had previously been discussion about decreasing <br /> the setback. Barnhart stated that the Planning Commission did not recommend <br /> any changes to the ordinance. Barnhart mentioned that they are trying to create a <br /> ' balance for the buffer-setback by being somewhat open since wetlands often <br /> change with the climate. Barnhart recommended not looking into removing the <br /> additional setback,but possibly looking into reducing it. Barnhart mentioned by <br /> reducing the setback you are allowing homeowners the ability to fully use their <br /> property. There was further discussion regarding the possibilities of various <br /> options to regulate the setback. No action was taken but later discussion may <br /> follow in future meetings. <br /> Meeting End Time: 6:45p.m. <br /> ATTEST: <br /> . <br /> Anna Carlson, City Clerk Dennis Walsh, Mayor <br />
