“Okay, sorry, just so we're clear on that. Okay, any other questions for Austin?”

“Are there other vacant lots, whatever, direct south or west or anything that would, if they stopped and did a private connection that would affect future development in the neighborhood? Or does everything else seem to already have a tie-in?”

“You know, we look at some of these plats and, you know, people want to develop lots, but then they've got to run a sewer two blocks or anything like that. We just want to make sure that we're not hindering other future development. Thank you.”

“Okay. If we have no more questions for Austin, we'll open up public comment.”

“Okay. Any questions for Russell? Actually, Russell, on that, like when it's a private... Maine, is there money, like does the city require the citizen to put away additional money in case there is an issue? Because, I mean, heaven forbid it collapses and the private citizen doesn't have money for repair or anything like that. Just out of curiosity.”

“for that kind of stuff so but the city doesn't require any kind of thing for that so yes okay perfect thank you thank you any other okay we'll go ahead and close public comment and open up for discussion or emotion In my opinion, I feel like as long as, again, especially if it's new construction, we're not looking at any, hopefully, any needed repairs anytime soon. But, I mean, if the city staff and the owner can come up with an agreeable term on having that be private, I don't see that being an issue. Okay. As long as it's not cutting off any future development, again, it looks like that…”

“And now, based on what Russell had asked, that if by chance city engineering cannot come up with, you know, everyone's on the same page as having that private, do we need to make an exception to have those easements removed from the plat, or do we have to do anything with that? I'm just making sure that, again... Having forbid, we don't have an issue for that.”
Planning Commission · Sep 21, 2026

“I'm just looking at, I think it's lot B, 6B maybe, the one in the middle. If there were those easements... And it ended up being more in the cities right away or whatever. It just would make the buildability very tight for the applicant. So I just want to make sure that if by chance they can't do what they propose, that they're not stuck within those easements, that we can remove them or whatever they need to do.”

“No, that's a good question. I think some of the Santa Rita homes have an individual. Okay. Perfect. Okay. Any other questions or thoughts? I know, Liz, you're kind of looking at it. Do you have anything to add? Okay. Sorry, killing you out there. Okay, so does anyone want to make a motion or any recommendations?”

“Okay. Nicholas, I've got a, and this might be a silly question, but they pass their safety inspection. But if the carport wasn't permitted or inspected, I'm assuming the safety inspection is just making sure that all windows operate, that there's smoke detectors, fire equipment.”

“Okay. Because I know that was a topic of discussion if it was, because somebody had mentioned, and I can't recall who, but that it was a different owner and there had been all these people there. So we just want to make sure that we're... I thought so too.”

“Local operator. Okay. Any other questions for Nicholas? Okay. All right. And do we have public comment?”

“Again, it's so hard to see some of these photos. Or are they, I'm assuming they're having to do a public drop-in.”

“And so have they been parking the Sea-Doos that have been zipping around on that boat dock?”

“All right. Thanks, Stormy. Well, I think, you know, again, last month we decided to table it and hoping that you would come as an applicant and answer just some of the questions that”

“Okay. So it hasn't been operating as an STR. It's been more friends and family.”

“You know, one thing I always recommend, you know, the lake is probably the most controversial place. is for SDRs. I was aware whenever I... Just based on lot lines, proximity of homes, lack of fencing, those kind of things, just respecting other people's areas when you're in more of a public setting like that. So we always recommend talking to the neighbors, letting them know the plan, giving them contact info.”

“Okay. Perfect. Any other questions for Stormy?”
Planning Commission · Sep 21, 2026
- Play at 39:58
“Okay, perfect. Thank you, Stormy. Any other questions for Stormy? Okay, thank you. Thank you. Any other, okay, we will go ahead and close public comment and open up for discussion or motion. Again, as I said, the lake is always very, very controversial. A few years back, we had one on Beatty, which I can't remember if it was Beatty Drive or Beatty Circle, but it was very similar, very, very narrow, one way in, one way out. But, you know, we've got to also think that Airbnbs do bring in tax revenue to the city. It brings in, you know, friends and families and, you know, people get to enjoy our…”

“Okay, well, and we're going to close public comment. And again, thank you so much, Shannon, for your comments on that. It does, in my opinion, sound like the situation has changed for the applicant versus what it sounded like was occurring prior to the applicant. owning the property herself. So with that, any other discussion?”
