Ciry Council Minutes Page 5 <br /> November 2,2015 <br /> ----------------------------- <br /> Attorney James Neilson representing Mr. Dargis, the adjacent homeowner—Stated <br /> this issue has been before Council several times and he would like staff to look back <br /> at old minutes. He stated the application for this homeowner,back in 2007,was <br /> improperly denied. He stated this is not public ground but an easement and the <br /> adjoining properties have fee title and have the absolute right to use the property <br /> unless the city is using it. Mr. Neilson referred to city resolutions from 1975 and <br /> 1976 which prohibits the launching of boats. <br /> Attorney Beck suggested Mr. Neilson present his information with the homeowner's <br /> vacation application so it can be analyzed. He stated the fact that the city hasn't been <br /> using the right-of-way doesn't mean it can't use it and noted an earlier decision by <br /> the Council can be reversed. <br /> Mayor Dietz stated discussion on this item would cease until the vacation application <br /> is considered in January. <br /> 10.3 2016-2020 Capital Improvement Plan <br /> Mr. Simon presented the staff report.
