He further stated that he and Dennis were at fault for not checking with the City. They <br /> do get the lake association's newsletter. They did get permission from the City to <br /> contact the sawyer to remove the trees that have been cut so they don't rot. The sawyer <br /> is on another job. Mr. Reschke's translation is that the sawyer will wait until they can <br /> come in and finish the job. He further stated if the recommendation tonight is for <br /> approval, it will go to the City Council on July 6th,then come back to the Planning <br /> Commission July 20 for the Forest Management Plan. The forester was going to pay for <br /> the logs that they can use, minus whatever to create the driveway and clearing, so maybe <br /> a couple thousand dollars; they weren't expecting a lot of money from the logging. <br /> Planning Commission Member Hallan stated the total stumpage on that property is less <br /> than $5,000. <br /> Chair Engels closed public comment. <br /> Mr. Burslie read 4 letters into the record;the letters or emails had been received from <br /> Nancy Adams, Dave and Carmen Morris, Robert Ritter and John and Barb Lynskey and <br /> are made a part of this record. <br /> Mr. Burslie explained the five times after-the-fact penalty fee that could be included <br /> with the recommendation to the City Council. <br /> A motion was made by Planning Commission Member Hallan, seconded by <br /> Planning Commission Member Mortenson,to recommend the City Council <br /> rezone this parcel from Shoreline Residential to Rural Residential,based <br /> on the following 14 Findings of Fact: <br /> 1.
