Vice Chairperson Van Scoy asked if a title search was done on the property and if Mr. Reed <br /> received a copy of the conditional use permit at the time of closing. <br /> Mr. Reed stated he assumed it was done, as he purchased title insurance and he received a stack <br /> of papers but does not believe he received a copy of the conditional use permit. <br /> Commissioner Brauer asked if the house was for sale on Craigslist. <br /> Mr. Reed stated he is going in a different direction to clean up the neighborhood and is not <br /> selling the house at this time. <br /> Commissioner Field asked if the accessory dwelling was currently rented. <br /> Mr. Reed stated no, his uncle and aunt are currently living there. <br /> Motion by Commissioner Bauer, seconded by Commissioner Field, to close the public hearing. <br /> Motion Carried.
