Motion was seconded by Councilman Cheney and carried unanimously by roll call vote. Councilman Proft moved, seconded by Councilman Cheney, to grant the request for building site approval, LANDS OF KNUDSON, File #BSA6092-77, subjectto conditions as recommended by the Variance & Permit Commission and as amended by Council (above). Motion carried unanimously by roll call vote. 3. Request for Conditional Use Permit for Secondary Dwelling, LANDS OF Siudzinski, File #CU8013-76 (Renewal): Mr. Josef Siudzinski, applicant, addressed Council relative to Condition #3 as recommended by the Planning Commission, requesting that implementation of the condition be delayed until the couple who lived in the home were able to find adequate housing somewhere else. He expressed reluctance to evict the people by the deadline recommended by the Commission, August 15th, since they had lived in the house for seventeen years and because of the difficulty in finding low-cost housing. Council discussion ensued with Staff and Planning Commission Representative Michael Stewart regarding options which might be considered, such as changing 4W the date and the posting of a bond to insure compliance.

After discussion, Councilman Cheney stated that he did not feel that it was his prerogative to allow such a non -conforming use regardless of his personal feelings.

Councilman Cheney moved, seconded by Councilwoman Hillestad, to approve the Conditional Use Permit, LANDS OF SIUDZINSKI, File #CU8013-77 subject to the conditions as recommended by the Planning Commission.
