<br />MR. KATH: Right from here. Right here from here to here <br />is the piece that I have. The water runs up so close to this <br />I can't build a home on to it. I don't feel that I'm really <br />not over-joyous about paying for sewer or road because I can't <br />use it for any benefit so you can understand I'm not really <br />standing here jumping for joy. And I'm sure that a lot of <br />you people on the Council can understand the hardship I have <br />already gone through on this piece of property. <br /> <br />MAYOR DEMOS: You're also saying the DNR won't let you <br />fill. <br /> <br />MR. KATH: What good is it? I got to get an answer. If <br />I could try to capture some of my bucks back out of this I <br />wouldn't feel bad about it, but I do feel I'm not going to get <br />any money out of it, and money, I guess, is the name of the <br />game, and it really has put a tremendous hardship on me now. <br />Let me try to point out - I did have this thing sold at one <br />time. It didn't go through and I won't go through that, but <br />I have been paying taxes on this piece of property for five <br />years. I have a $90,000 lawsuit pending on it besides that. <br /> <br />MAYOR DEMOS: We're not responsible for that. <br /> <br />MR. KATH: I think partially because somebody refused to <br />put their name on the DNR (ina11dible) on this, but regardless <br />of thatf I rose above this and it was a hardship, but I have <br />also been putting the taxes on to it, and if you can show me <br />how I can capture my dollars out of this I will go along <br />because I'm 100% for streets and curbs and gutters and the <br />whole works. <br /> <br />MR. HONCHELL: How much depth of lot do you feel you'd <br />need? <br /> <br />rm. KATH: I don't know, but I forgot who it was that was <br />all in to it, but Steve North was in it and we come back in <br />and I was really excited about this because, yes, maybe we <br />could - you can go back into a lake and own as much of a lake <br />as you want, but you can only build so much, and when I got <br />out there and I thought, gee, I'm gonna get some of my tax <br />bucks back, and the guy said, I don't want them. I couldn't <br />even choke down my supper that night. <br /> <br />MR. HONCHELL: Looking at the area, it looks like you <br />have 90 feet by 90 feet. <br /> <br />MR. KATIl: They come out 92 foot frontage for four lots, <br />but there isn't enough after they went back in to step it out - <br />he s aid I'd be ashamed .to go to the Ci ty Counci 1 and ask for <br />a permit because we will have to infringe on the water, and <br />I said, leave me out of it. <br /> <br />8 <br />
