MINUTES OF A PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD JANUARY 16, 1978 - PAGE 5 <br />Chairwoman McDonald reviewed the Jxine 28, 1976 <br />Council minutes which approved the final mylars <br />gubject to payment of the park dedication tee. <br />The Zoning Administrator stated the park dedication <br />fee was not paid before the six months deadline <br />expired and the mylars were not signed or certified. <br />Mr. Singer referred the Commission to the March <br />1975 Council minutes and asked what else was a <br />condition for the approval of the sxibdivisicn. <br />The Zoning Administrator replied the payment of <br />the park dedication fee and a drainage plan <br />approved by the City Engineer. Mr. Singer stated <br />he was not aware of the requirement for drainage <br />plans until now. <br />jbr. Plowman stated he was not aware of the six <br />month period within which he had to pay the park <br />dedication fee, adding that when he went to pay <br />the park dedication fee in August of 1976 he found <br />out it was too late to pay it. <br />Conmissloner Frahm referred to the letters written <br />by the two neighbors and expressed his concern <br />about their objections to the subdivision. <br />Coiranissioner Hurr felt that since Mr. Plowman had <br />put out a great deal of money in buying this <br />property and a great deal of time planning to <br />divide the property, that a hardship was demonstrated. <br />She also coninented that this subdivision did qualify <br />under the old requirements. Mayor Van Nest <br />explained that a hardship is a natural problem <br />with the land or topography of the property which <br />causes a hardship, not necessarily a financial <br />problem. <br />Commissioner Hassel stated the approval of this <br />subdivision is a matter of principle and inter­ <br />pretation of the ordinance versus the policy. <br />He continued that to divide this property causes <br />riparian lot rights, which is a policy problem. <br />There being no further discussion. Commissioner <br />Hassel moved. Commissioner Wilson seconded, a <br />motion to recommend denial of the request by <br />Joe Braun for preliminary approval of the <br />subdivision because the lots do not meet tP^ 100 rc. <br />minimum lakeshore lot width requirement. The <br />Commission also recommended that the Council <br />should keep in mind that this subdivision has <br />been in process for a very long time. <br />JOE BRAUN <br />#002 <br />(con't)
