Mr. Cain explained he had just been in a discussion with representatives of the Public Works Department and they had suggested a continuation of the request until they could consult with the City Attorney's office. Mr. Palin asked if Public Works was concerned with a "Hold Harmless Agreement" from the property owner and Mr. Cain confirmed this query. Mr. Cain further explained the property owner would remove the light aluminum roof and side panels if it became necessary for City personnel to work within the easement area. Messrs. Palin and Cain held an -extensive discussion regarding locations of the existing wall, the pool, and proposed structure in relation to the setbacks and existing easement. The Zoning Administrator further stipulated that any "Hold Harmless Agreement" signed by the property owner would have to be recorded with the County so it would show on any title search in the event the property was sold. Upon questioning by Mr. Palin, Staff stated the Final Map did show the easement. The Zoning Administrator expressed concern over weight bearing on the underground pipes but Mr. Cain stated the pipes were buried quite deep. The applicant's representative presented additional sketches to Staff and stated he would have copies made for the file. After a discussion relative to the length of time required for consultation with the City Attorney's office, Mr. Cain requested a two (2) week continuance with the understanding that the Public Works Department would follow through on this request. There was no one else present wishing to speak for or against the request but the Public Hearing was left open to the indicated meeting date.
