NEW BUSINESS
– There was no new business.
OLD BUSINESS
Lake Margaret Overlay District
– Chairman North asked if any of the members had any concerns with the revised
ordinance. Most members felt the changes made were sufficient.
Tim Moore questioned the term vegetation removal-open cutting as a conditional
use. It was the consensus of the group to delete the term.
Dave Baldwin questioned several items within the ordinance and felt these items
may meet quite a bit of resistance from the public. The first item was the
restoration of vegetation along the shoreline for an unrelated permit. Other
items included the elimination of culverts, ice ridge removal, and enforcement
issues. The Commission discussed these items along with the benefits of having
them in the ordinance. The group agreed to move the public hearing date from
July 14th to a special meeting on Monday August 4, 2008, 6:00 PM,
Lake Shore City Hall in order to allow the second Stakeholders meeting with
Wenck.
