B. Mr. Marohn pointed out the correspondence and explained the history of the two letters. C. Potential Violations/Enforcement Actions: 1. Roger Langenbau: Mr. Marohn pointed out the existing structures and uses. Mr. Langenbau has permits for the buildings, but not the uses. Non- conforming uses could be grandfathered.

Further investigation is to be done into the erosion into the wetland. 2.
