* Containers (e.g., 8’ x 8’ x 40’ cargo containers and similar). Committee members met with City representatives. The City is looking for input from the Commmunity, leading to potential planning commission and council actions. After some discussion, the Committee agreed on the following points:

• (a) grandfathering existing containers
• (b) 100% screening
• (c) we don't want more containers in the community
• (d) anchoring may not be necessary
• (e) they are to be considered temporary structures, and should each have a date by which they will be removed. Casey Porter will continue to act as the Community’s liaison on this matter with the City.

* 6 Sweetbay. Received 2 separate requests from the owner:

• A request was submitted regarding a coral. This was approved..
• A request was submitted regarding perimeter fencing. Guidance on height (limited to 42”), materials for the portion facing the road (stone or 3-rail wood), and set-back (25’ from edge of the road easement) was provided. The owner has asked for additional guidance; the Committee appointed Bob Haldeman to work with the owner.
