Vicky Crowe, 8145 Long Lake Road, the applicant,
stated she had had a list signed by her surrounding
neighbors, stating they had nothing against this
proposal.
Acting Clerk/Administrator Minetor explained the
Council has the right to waive a public hearing,
but cautioned they have never done so before.
Mayor Hankner stated she was concerned with being as
strict as possible to make sure there was a true
public review and opportunity for input.
Attorney Karney advised an agreement could be drawn
up approving the placement of the footings at this
time, with the stipulation they be removed if the
permit is not granted. However, there could be
problems in trying to enforce that later on, if the
permit isn't granted, and it could be very expensive
for the City to have to take civil action.
Ms. Crowe stated she has lived there 17 years and
enjoys the wetland, and the addition they are planning
is to put up a screened porch to further enjoy the
• wetlands.
Councilmember Blanchard stated she was concerned as
many people have said the city is weakening the
ordinance by giving so many permits. She stated she
agrees this is a legitimate problem, but the Council
must uphold the ordinance, which calls for a hearing.
Councilmember Quick stated there were two options
available, to enter into an agreement or waive the
public hearing.
Mr. Minetor noted that if they allow construction
to begin and then deny it during the public hearing
process, they would still have to go through another
public hearing to have it taken out.
Councilmember Wuori noted in planning issues, cost
factors are not an acceptable hardship and cannot be
considered.
Motion: Quick to waive the permit requirements and
issue a building permit.
The motion failed for lack of a second.
• Motion/Second: Blanchard/Quick to set a public
hearing for Ronald Crowe for a wetland alteration
permit to construct a porch/deck in a wetland buffer
area, 8145 Long Lake Road, for November 12, 1990 at
