suggested duties relative to the issuance of fireworks display permits. Discussion continued. Motion by

Citizen Concern
Citizen, Dwight Miller, appeared to express concern regarding the Shoreland Management Ordinance
language which allows only one dwelling per lot. Mr. Miller had been recently cited for leaving his camper
(2nd dwelling) on a lot on Silver Lake. Land & Resource Administrator, Bill Kalar, stated that the citation
was a result of a complaint, which alledged more than one dwelling unit on-site, received by his office. The
County Attorney stated that in the old ordinance, language existed regarding the determination of
temporary campers/tents being 22 days or less without water, sewer etc. Mr. Kalar responded that
temporary camper language does exist in the new ordinance, however, there can be only one dwelling
(including temporary dwellings) on a lot. The County Attorney stated that the concern would be considered
for possible language change of the Shoreland Management Ordinance when the ordinance is reviewed in
the future.
