Brian Casey represented the applicant and presented the plan. Michael said in our vista pruning guidelines we generally like to have the path included in the vista corridor., rather than separate where the path is a vista corridor itself. It the corridor is shifted over to the path, it would still give a vier of the dock. The history of the property was that dere was an illegal cutting, then a mitigation planting,, then the mitigation trees were cut. We made it prem clear that we would not entertain a vista pruning until there was evidence that the oaks --either those planted or those allowed to re-grow—would actually be to a point of replacing some of the substanbal alterations. Mr. Casey said he is only asking for 20 ft. and he thinks he"s allowed 30 ft. –he thinks the frontage is 130 ft: Michael agreed that the corridor is conservative and could have been expanded. in vier of the history of the property, Jack.recommended that Mike visit the site before we rake a decision. Motion made, seconded and unanimously carried to grant a continuance to September 2 at 7:45 p.m., with the agreement of the applicant.
