Mike Hilbelink was present on behalf of Ted Wolf. Van Zomeren stated the Planning Commission reviewed this application at its August 17, 1998 • meeting to allow the Applicant time to submit revised plans. The revised plan proposes to move the lot line to allow a 50' setback for the existing barn from the proposed lot line, which means the barn would meet the setback requirement from the rear lot line on a front lot. The newly created Lot 1 would be comprised of 3.04 acres and the newly created Lot 2 would be comprised of 8.07 acres. Staff recommends approval of the application.
