Planning Commission Recommendations
Conditional Use Permit -David 8. Arnoldy:
Land & Resource Director, Bill Kalar, noted that the Planning Commission recommended denial of

recommend approval to fill an area outside of the wetland that is approximately 40' by 45'.
Applicant, David Arnoldy, requested more cubic yards of fill for the 40' by 45' area than the figure
given by the Planning Commission as he calculated that it would take 67 cubic yards to fill this
area. Additionally, he requested moving the initial walkway area rather than using the wooden
walkway suggested by the Planning Commission. Mr. Kalar responded that a change in the
original request requires a new CUP application.
Motion by Nelson, second by Lindquist, and unanimously carried to deny the proposed access
path request as recommended by the Planning Commission and to approve a CUP to fill the Q
requested 40' by 45' area and to allow fill necessary for this area not to exceed 1 foot in height
