c <br />3 <br />MINUTES OF A REGULAR MEETING HELD AUGUST 20, 1973 Page 2 <br />Hr. Goodacre felt tliat this particular <br />project would be less objectionable than <br />some residential development because there <br />would be no children under 18 allowed and a <br />great deal of the property would be left in <br />its natural state. <br />Commissioner Elliott entered the Council <br />Chambers at 8:15 P.M. <br />The major concern expressed by the residents <br />in the area of the proposed development is <br />the location of the access. Because so many <br />children use Ferndale Green for bikes, etc. <br />and becuase the Ferndale Green and Ferndale <br />Road intersection is dangerous, the residents <br />feel that access to the project should be <br />sought elsewhere. <br />Searles suggested that since there is concern <br />regarding access to the proposed site, and <br />because the Country Club is claiming that <br />access is impossible from the west, stakes <br />saould be placed to indicate their present <br />property line. If the property line were <br />clearly indicated, all interested parties <br />would then better understand the potential <br />costs of moving a golf green, golf tee, and <br />cutting into a hill for a road. <br />Gasch suggested that the Village Engineer <br />review the possibility of providing access <br />from the west for the potential building <br />site and also advise the Planning Commission <br />of any traffic hazard at the Ferndale Green <br />and Ferndale Road intersection. <br />Kullberg moved, Ryerse seconded, that the <br />Wayzata Country Club "PRD" request for a <br />rezoning and a variance be tabled until Mr, <br />Mills has had the opportunity to respond <br />to Gasch*s questions. Motion, Ayes (8) • <br />Nays (0). <br />HAYZATA COUNTRY CLUB <br />(Continued) <br />WAYZATA COUNTRY CLUB <br />Mr. Duncan's request for a variance of 79* <br />from his side property line was tabled at the <br />July Planning Commission meeting to allow <br />the Commission members an opportunity to <br />inspect the property. Since the July meeting, <br />tne Village Engineer submitted a written report <br />stating that other sites were available to Mr. <br />Duncan that would require little or no variance. <br />VARIANCE <br />4760 West Branch Road <br />Mr. Dean Gommer, the property owner to the <br />east of the Duncans, has also submitted a <br />letter to the Village objecting to the <br />variance of 79* <br />(Continued)
