ORAL PRESENTATIONS
88205 - Jerry Puls, 2516 W. 9th Street, reported that he has been unable to obtain a
building permit for the construction of a garage in the rear portion of his yard.
A drainage easement located along the rear of his yard for Dry Run Creek overflow
has prevented him from the construction. He asked that the Council take the
appropriate action to allow him to construct the building prior to inclement
weather.
Bob Stevenson, City Planner, explained that the adoption of the flood plain
management ordinance by the Council in June, 1985, does not allow for construction
of accessory buildings in the flood plain. The 50' easement located within the Dry
Run Creek area was obtained in 1968; however, over the years several garages have
been permitted to be constructed over the easement. He asked that staff be given
additional time to review the needs for an easement in this particular area.
