MINi7TES CITY COUNCIL MARCH 9, 1994 Scalze pointed out that the City's Shoreline Ordinance is very specific as to removal of vegetation. Scalze also pointed out that the City has been very pro-active in adopting a Tree Replacement Ordinance ensuring that trees on a development site cannot just be leveled. Scalze felt that the City has been a good steward of the environment, and that there is no reason why restrictive covenants cannot be placed on a single- family home development. Scalze stated that the City would be glad to work with the developer, and wanted to make sure that the development is the best plan for Little Canada. Sommer indicated that a string of 75 foot wide lots could not be developed along the lake without considering other factors. Sommer stated that lot size must be considered and indicated that a minimum of 20,000 square feet would be required. Sommer felt that the Planner's indication that 38 to 42 lots could be developed on the Mitchell property lying in Little Canada was bad information, and that the Council and the Planning Commission should have received better information. Sommer also pointed out that the high water mark must be considered in determining the setback for a structure from the lake.
