Dick Lecy, owner of Lot 1, asked if property owners or other road had paid for the entire project. He also stated that the complete construction option should be considered. Thomas Anderson stated that on thorofares the city contributes one third of the cost but because this is a local street the policy has been that property owners should be respon- sible for the entire cost. Although in this instance the city would be doing the tiling. Rick Broderson, owner of Lot 3, stated that drainage should run onto the street not between Lots 2 and 3.

Richard Schieffer stated that some items listed in the Attorneys memo could be construed as allowing the facility. He advised that Council decide whether or not the application fits under one of the categories of the ordinance. JoEllen Hurr stated that a Conditional Use Permit would allow for more control than a rezoning and because the ordinance requires schools to be in a UR district and because the property will have sewer and water the Conditional Use Permit process should be used.

Reasons for the variance are the fact that the deck will be constructed over existing hardcover; structure will not be any closer to the lake than existing cement slab nor adjacent houses and because of the size of the lot.
