The neighbors stated that <br />the construction has lasted too long and that the project has grown larger <br />than what they could support. The neighbors felt that they have been <br />deceived and misled by the applicant on the overall construction. The <br />neighbor asked City to require the Smiths to post a construction bond to <br />secure the completion of the project. The Zoning Administrator stated the <br />staff will provide the answer after consulting with the City Attorney's <br />Office. <br />The Zoning Administrator explained and clarified the design review and <br />building permit process. The Zoning Administrator encouraged the <br />applicant and neighbors to communicate and the applicant to address the <br />neighbors' concerns, and requested that the applicant prepare the following <br />and continue the hearing: <br />o A construction schedule; <br />o A complete set of drawings that reflect the existing construction; <br />and, <br />PAP-108 (Appeal of PADR-1698) Planning Commission <br />Page - 6 - <br />
