Discussion.
The Board of Adjustment posed two questions to the applicant: 1) Do the applicant's have the
right to build the proposed dry-land access on the existing easement if it reduces the rights of the
other easement holders to access the river including the slough of the St. Croix River? 2) Do the
applicants wish to submit an amended application proposing a much smaller, shorter house? This
would require additional time, public notice, and new hearing.
