Community Development Director Gladhill reviewed the staff report. Councilmember Riley commented that these types of structures should not be allowed in the zoning ordinance. Councilmember Musgrove stated that she could support the size of the hoop tent and the size of the lot being linked, using an example of the larger the lot the larger size of hoop tent that could be allowed. She noted that she would not support these on smaller lots but could support them on larger lots. Councilmember Heinrich stated that she would not support these types of structures on city lots. She stated that she would be willing to be flexible with residents that already have these structures and receive a complaint, which would then start the clock on a set timeline in which the structure must be removed. Community Development Director Gladhill asked for clarification on the statement stating that his understanding of Councilmember Heinrich's comment would be not to allow new structures but to provide an extended timeline for existing structures to be removed, such as one year. He stated that staff has historical aerial photographs that can be used to verify when the structures were installed. Mayor LeTourneau confirmed Councilmember Heinrich's comment to be that the ordinance will remain as it stands, there will not be proactive prosecution and staff will remain reactive on a complaint basis but can provide an extended timeline for residents to come into compliance after a complaint is received. Councilmember Kuzma stated that he could support this type of structure on larger lots but would not support these on smaller lots. He stated that he would be opposed to this type of structure being ripped or in disrepair. Mayor LeTourneau stated that he would not support this type of structure and would agree with the comments of Councilmembers Riley and Heinrich. Community Development Director Gladhill confirmed the consensus of the Council to leave the ordinance as written and continue to operate on a complaint basis. 2.03: Receive Update on Public Works Water Supply and Manganese Levels Public Works Superintendent Riemer reviewed the staff report.
