Dennis Sharp, applicant -Stated he didn't feel they could ever eliminate outdoor storage. He further stated he would like to include additional electric or barbed wire fencing to prevent people from jumping over the fence. Councilmember Westgaard questioned why the applicant needed five doors. Mr. Sharp stated the number and size of the doors may not be final. He stated it will depend on the boat sizes.
