Regular City Council Meeting Monday, October 6, 2014 Page 7 that the structure could be modified. Councilmember McGehee stated that she was not in favor of reducing this easement. At the request of Councilmember Willmus, Mr. Culver clarified the easement area provided on the west end via the church property; and confirmed that staff could find no historical information on why the City had initially retained the full width of the easement area or obtained it. At the request of Councilmember Etten, Mr. Culver addressed the impervious sur- face requirement for this development. Councilmember Etten expressed concern in losing the natural amenities (e.g. trees)in this area. Mayor Roe noted that the property would be required to meet the lakeshore buffer requirements for impervious surface as well as those dictated by the particular use of the property. McGehee moved, Etten seconded, to TABLE action to a date not specific; direct- ing staff to work with the developer to address concerns raised tonight, for the parcel at 197 County Road B-2. Mayor Roe clarified with City Attorney Mark Gaughan that this motion to table was appropriate without requiring another Public Hearing at the Planning Com- mission level; but did not preclude hearing additional public comment when the issue came before the City Council in the future. City Attorney Gaughan also noted that the 60-day review timeframe did not apply as this request had been ini- tiated by staff rather than the developer. Roll Call Ayes: Willmus, Laliberte, Etten, McGehee, and Roe. Nays: None. Approve a Resolution Approving the Vacation of Drainage and Utility Easements Located along Lots 18—21,Block 1, O'Neil's Addition At the request of Mayor Roe, City Manager Trudgeon briefly reviewed the re- quest as detailed in the RCA dated October 6, 2014. Councilmember McGehee sought clarification that this request was for the pur- pose of cleaning up the utility easement, currently extending 32.9' in a swath where the utility easement now lies, and now expanding the utility and drainage easement 32.9' from where it was now. City Manager Trudgeon concurred, and Mayor Roe clarified that that was the di- mension on the westerly edge.
