C.) Items Held In Committee:

1.) A Fence Variance request for 3309 Snider Drive (held 03/29/18 pending recommendation from Public Services Committee) – Public Services has recommended this. There is an easement on the North property line that has a water main. They will stay out of this easement. There is a very wide easement across the rear of the property. Thirty-two foot is encumbered by an easement. There is also a sanitary sewer line across the back as well as an overland flow path for storm water drainage. They would be staying 10 feet off the back property line. Motion to approve (Morrison), seconded (Krause) and voted all ayes to forward to Council.

2.) Discussion of Mural Relocation from 400 N. Main Street - Committee is looking at the cost of moving and transporting the mural to a new location. There is currently a digital file of the image. They are looking at the worst case and best case scenarios for moving it. The cost is the biggest concern. Alderman Krause suggested looking into fundraising. They have suggested looking into moving just sections of it and have it created as smaller pieces of public art if it can't all be gotten in one move. From an HPC standpoint, they are in support of this. The timeline for demolition and development of the property will be the 1st quarter of 2019. Alderman Krause suggested HPC do a fundraising effort for this.
