Chuck Johnson, 14146 182nd Avenue NW, indicated the City Council approved a variance that would allow construction of a net on his property, but he has not constructed the net because he feels the net will reduce his property value. Mr. Johnson feels it would be more appropriate to construct nets at the tee boxes of problem holes, but Mr. Krause was not willing to do so. Mr. Johnson it would be his last alternative to put a net on his property. There being no further public comment, Chair Anderson closed the public hearing.
