Lee Zierath, 6628 Canal Ln., would like to see the pipe and ditch cleaned along Marcinkowski’s since the concept plan was to reditch Canal Ln. Schilling stated that he does not want anything to do with Canal Ln. and that they were collecting 100% of the water as it was to improve the situation.

Motion carried.
8. Conceptual Plans/CSM-Baranowski, 28513 E. River Bay Rd.- Dubis stated he had looked into the documents and the property is in a trust, not a will, so the division will be subject to the land division ordinance and a CSM will be required.

Commission would like to see both parcels deed restricted to no further land divisions.
