MINUTES <br />PLANNING COMMISSION <br />MARCH 13, 2003 <br />ADJOURN <br />Duray felt the Gervais Park was a great asset to the community and the <br />project will be a great improvement. Duray asked how much of the <br />pathway fell into the 25 -foot setback area. Holmberg replied that <br />approximately 200 feet fell into the required setback. <br />Weihe asked about tree loss. Holmberg reported that no trees would be <br />lost in the hill area, but there were approximately three threes that will be <br />removed for the new building and one tree removed near the beach. <br />Duray asked if the County has experienced problems with fishing piers in <br />other parks. Holmberg reported that the piers have not been a problem, <br />and they are typically used by youth and older retired people. The piers <br />are also handicapped accessible, and will likely be used by handicapped <br />people who would have difficulty using a boat for fishing. <br />Knudsen recommended approval of the Variance allowing a setback <br />encroachment into the shoreline setback requirement for a path at Lake <br />Gervais County Park as requested given that a hardship exists due to <br />grading impacts on the park if the path were to be moved further west into <br />the hill area, and given the fact that this pathway provides for handicapped <br />access to park amenities, in this case a fishing pier. <br />Motion seconded by Barraclough. <br />Motion carried 6 — 0. <br />Keis recommended that the meeting be adjourned. <br />Motion seconded by Weihe. <br />Motion carried 6 — 0. <br />There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 7:56 p.m. <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />Kathy Glanzd <br />Deputy Clerk <br />- 3 - <br />
