Procedurally <br /> if the Commission wants to accept a recommendation from the City Advisory Committee we <br /> will need a motion, a second, and if you want to put in timelines for him and the City <br /> Manager to act upon it, please do.

We had also made a point that <br /> if the public has to subject themselves to a variance or some type of issue he thinks the City <br /> should go through the same rigor when they are creating the same burden on an adjacent <br /> property owner. However, City Attorney Ottinot did further research and we are within our <br /> Code. Vice Mayor Aelion said the clarification of the height will be on a per case basis, and <br /> it is to be kept open, and City Attorney Ottinot said yes unless the Commission directs staff <br /> to, but this is a rare situation. Vice Mayor Aelion said a cap should be placed on it and he <br /> suggested a cap of up to eight (8) feet, and City Attorney Ottinot said he would amend the <br /> Ordinance for second reading. <br /> 4 <br />
