<br />City Council Minutes <br />June 21, 1999 <br /> <br />Page 4 <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Steve Stoffers 14902 Victoria Lane - indicated that he did not believe it was the <br />council's intention to approve the driveway for Mr. Martin. Councilmember Dietz <br />indicated that the idea of a driveway onto Meadowvale Road was thought to be <br />a solution prior to the adoption of the ordinance, which restricted trailers in <br />residential areas. Councilmember Dietz indicated that he is in full support of Mr. <br />Grimmer's driveway. <br /> <br />Councilmember Thompson indicated he believes that Mr. Martin misrepresented <br />both himself and the council (to the county) in an attempt to get the driveway <br />permit. He questioned whether this would be grounds for the council to withdraw <br />the permit. <br /> <br />Council member Farber indicated he was in support of revoking the permit and <br />that he supports Mr. Grimmer's request for a permit to upgrade his driveway. He <br />requested staff to review the permit to determine if Mr. Martin is in violation of the <br />city code. <br /> <br />Tom Mesich, planning commission representative, stated that the current driveway <br />is a dirt driveway and larger than allowed by ordinance. He suggested that the <br />council ensure that the new driveway meets code. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />The council directed staff to review the matter and to send a letter to Mr. Martin <br />indicating that Mr. Martin must follow the permitting procedure and the <br />requirements of the city to ensure the driveway has a dust-free surface and that <br />the size also meets city code requirements. <br /> <br />Councilmember Thompson indicated that he is not in favor of allowing a trailer to <br />be parked on the driveway. <br /> <br />COUNCILMEMBER DIETZ MOVED TO AUTHORIZE THE ENGINEER TO SEND A LETTER TO <br />THE COUNTY IN SUPPORT OF MR. GRIMMER'S APPLICATION FOR A DRIVEWAY PERMIT <br />TO UPGRADE HIS DRIVEWAY. COUNCILMEMBER THOMPSON SECONDED THE MOTION. <br /> <br />Councilmember Motin indicated that he would like more information regarding <br />whether Mr. Grimmer should be allowed a driveway permit onto Meadowvale <br />Road. <br /> <br />COUNCILMEMBER MOTIN MOVED TO TABLE THIS MOTION. MAYOR KLINZING <br />SECONDED THE MOTION. THE MOTION TO TABLE FAILED 2-3. Council members <br />Thompson, Farber and Dietz opposed. <br /> <br />Councilmember Thompson stated that he is in support of the motion because Mr. <br />Grimmer has an existing driveway onto Meadowvale Road. <br /> <br />THE MOTION CARRIED 4-0-1. Councilmember Motin abstained. <br /> <br />e <br />
