He noted that this had formerly been the Merrill property and when they had received a building permit one of the conditions of approval was the granting of a pathway easement to the Town. However, final permits had been given by the County to the Merrills without getting a signed easement. The new owners,the Kennedys,had now received approval for a secondary unit and a pool house with kitchen facilities. Mr. Hubbard noted that several of the neighbors objected on the basis that these structures were not in compliance with the Town's ordinances. He was asking Council to file an appeal of these County decisions. This was urgent in that there was a fifteen-day appeal period. Casey stated that she could not support this request. In the first place the Merrills had asked to be annexed to the Town and the Town had decided not to annex this property. She believed the Town had had their opportunity for control of such decisions and had not taken it. Furthermore, this was an off-road path which she did not support. Dauber pointed out that this was not a new path the Council was asking for but rather one which had been approved and required of the Merrill property for its building permit. • September 2, 1999 Regular City Council Meeting 4
