Gaffron, Assistant Planning & Zoning Administrator <br />August 24, 1995 <br />Subject: Neighborhood Request for Vacation of Scotch Pine Lane <br />List of Attachments <br />A - Letter and Sketch from Property Owners <br />B - Moratorium Ordinance <br />Staff has received a request from the three homeowners serv'ed by Scotch Pine Lane for a <br />vacation of Scotch Pine Lane. <br />Concurrently, they propose a replat which would leave two lots on a shared driveway at the <br />existing Scotch Pine/County Road 51 intersection, with the third lot having a new dnveway onto <br />Countv Road 51. Hennepin County DOT s initial reaction to this was positive. <br />While staff feels this proposal is not specifically subject to the current moratorium. Council may <br />conclude otherwise (moratorium document attached). The proposal certainly raises questions <br />which the City intends to be addressing as pan of the moratorium. <br />John Gerhardson and I have reviewed the proposal, and while it seems to make a lot ot sense <br />for this neichborhood, it may not be in tune with Citv ’ policy regarding public roads/private <br />roads/driveways. <br />We anticipate the neighborhood will shortly file a joint formal application for the vacation and <br />replat. If Council feels such an application is inappropriate, please advise staff.
