Mr. Locher stated that he had examined the abstract and had a certified copy of the deed with him. He had found no easement to the road; therefore the parcel is landlocked. Mr. Schmitz stated that he had paid $15 for an easement. However, this is not on record. Mr. Locher stated that at best he was using en 8' easement to the next lot. He mentioned that the Courts had upheld the Council's denial of a request for a building permit on a 20' easement. Mr. Schmitz stated he had tried to get a building permit and could not. Mr. Schmitz did not apply for a temporary permit for the trailer and has been there since Sept. 1. Mr. Cardinal asked him if he wasn't told at the Council meeting to get a temporary permit but Mr. Schmitz stated he didn't know anything about this. Mr. Rehbein asked him what reason he had for parking his trailer there. Mr. ScbbzniiiL stated that he had bought his trailer in Wisconsin so that he could park it any- where and then found no room in any of the courts. He has a well and septic tank. Mr. Rehbein moved that the P&Z recommend to the Council that they deny the request of Mr. Joseph Schmitz for a special use permit for his trailer because there was no hardship caa;the parcel was landlocked. Seconded by Mr. Kelling. The motion carried unanimously. Mr. Rehbein moved that since Mr. Schmitz had brought in the trailer without looking into the ordinances, the P&Z recommend to the Council that Mr. Schmitz be given a 30 -day notice to move his trailer out.

Mr. Locher stated that he did not have it with him and also stated that the new amendment was not in effect since any amendment to Ord. 6 requires two weeks published notice before adoption. The notice will be published on the 26th and Jan. 2nd; the Council could consider the matter on the 12th. Mr. McLean stated that Naegele had not brought in any application forms for the Jandric signs (Chamonix); but that the matter was still pending. If they granted the special use permits then Naegele could come in later for the permits. After discussion Mr. Kelling moved that the P&Z recommend to the Council that they grant a special use permit for Naegele to put up 3 signs for Chamonix at the fol- lowing locations: on Birch across from 7th Ave.; on Hwy 49 at Birch St., and on Hwy 49 at Old Hwy 8 near the Apple Inn, subject to the new fee schedule. Seconded by Mr. Jester. Motion carried unanimously. Mr, James Bratland, representing Brede, Inc. came forward to change his request for All signs. Since the two signs he had requested were lesathan 1200' apart, he wished to enlarge the size of the sign and advertize both on the same one and withdraw one application. The request was for a sign on the Midland-Videen property on the end Oak Lane. Mr. Bratland showed the location on a map and produced the lease agree- ment. He was asked to bring a copy of the lease agreement to the Council meeting. The lease was for 3 years and included a clause that in case of land improvement the sign would be removed within 3Q days.
