MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD APRIL 21, 1986 <br />#999 NELINE/BBLDON continued <br />Applicants noted that they are submitting a smaller <br />scale proposal than what was previously presented. <br />Bellows stated that she felt strongly that this lot was <br />not a buildable lot. She noted that there is so much <br />water on the lot now, the applicants would be "buying <br />problems" if they were to build. <br />Applicants noted that based on the variances granted to <br />the Pembertons and Fegers lots, their request was not <br />that far out of line. <br />Taylor stated that the "moveable shoreline" has a more <br />harmful effect on applicants property than the two <br />properties to the east. He stated that because <br />applicants are requesting a lot area variance of <br />appi oximate l y 8 0 % in a half acre zone, he felt that <br />unless the applicants acquire the additional property <br />from Hennepin County and come up with a suitable design <br />to protect from the spring melt, he would have to deny <br />the application. <br />Callahan and McDonald both felt that even with <br />acquisition of the additional property, it would not be <br />a buildable lot. <br />Applicants noted they felt there was in some terms a <br />"grandfather right" because of the recently removed <br />structure that existed and that they, in good faith, <br />have done everything possible to comply with the City's <br />directives. <br />McDonald noted that the existing structure was removed <br />because the City condemned it as a hazardous building, <br />applicants did not remove it toappease the Planning <br />Commission. <br />Because of the Planning Commission's negative comments, <br />applicant requested the proposal be tabled 5o they can <br />come up with an alternative. <br />In light of the Planning Commission's comments, it was <br />moved by Callahan, seconded by Bellows, to recommend <br />denial of this application. Motion, Ayes 4, Nays 2. <br />Taylor and Rovegno voted nay. <br />#1011 EXCELSIOR BAY YACHT CLUB <br />DEERING ISLAND <br />CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT i '.'ARIANCE <br />SECOND REVIEW <br />Douglas <br />K 1 <br />int <br />of the Excelsior Bay Yacht Club was <br />present <br />for <br />this <br />matter. <br />Cl <br />
