Planning & Zoning Commission <br />Meeting Minutes <br />December 6, 2005 <br />City Administrator Larson explained that the language is meant to govern middle of the <br />block or rear yard pedestrian pathways not front yard sidewalks. <br /> <br />Commissioner Wright pointed out a typographical error on Page 13. <br /> <br />Commissioner Wright asked for clarification of a cross reference on Page 55. <br /> <br />City Administrator Larson indicated it was an error due to the combining and rearranging <br />of the language in the Ordinance and Staff will insert the correct reference. <br /> <br />City Administrator Larson indicated he was approached by a resident who asked that the <br />City consider amending the language concerning shoreland vegetative clearing to allow <br />clearing of existing vegetation and replanting of new vegetation. He then read some <br />suggested language to add to the Ordinance. <br /> <br />Chair Hanson asked whether there were any species that should be protected and not just <br />allow blanket removal. <br /> <br />City Administrator Larson indicated that the City could ask for an inventory of existing <br />species to be removed when the permit is requested. <br /> <br />Chair Hanson indicated that he did not have an issue with adding the language suggested <br />by Staff. <br /> <br />Commissioner Hanzal suggested requiring residents to replant 50% of what is removed. <br /> <br />Commissioner Wood indicated he would like to have 60% or more. <br /> <br />Commissioner Hanzal said that he could agree to 60% and the resident would need to <br />strategically landscape to allow them a screened view of the lake from the home. <br /> <br />The Commission agreed to the language with the 60% requirement. <br /> <br />Motion by Commissioner Hanzal, seconded by Commissioner Pangell to close the <br />public hearing. All in favor. Motion carried unanimously. <br /> <br />Chair Hanson closed the public hearing at 6:58 p.m. <br /> <br />Motion by Commissioner Klennert Hunt, seconded by Commissioner Wood, to <br />recommend approval of Chapters 153, 154 and 155 with the noted changes. All in <br />favor. Motion carried unanimously. <br /> <br />2.
