MINUTES OP THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 3, 1988 <br />ZONING FILE 1990-FERRELL CONTINUED <br />1,04 and the .85 lots would meet the City's septic requirements. <br />Gaffron stated that in a rural area a 2-acre minimum would be <br />required. Howeverr from a septic point of view, each of the lots <br />could meet the requirements for primary and alternate septic <br />sites, but there would only be room to build a modest residence <br />and none of the amenities (pools, tennis courts, etc.). <br />It was moved by Planning Commission member Hanson, seconded <br />by Moos, to recommend combining the^.1.04 and .85 acreage for a <br />total of 1.89, and grant a variance to build on that lot. Kelley <br />asked why Hanson favored that proposal rather than splitting a <br />lot between the two lots. Hanson replied that he wanted to keep <br />any new building sites as close to the 2-acre minimum as <br />possible. Cohen reiterated his desire to uphold the 2-acre <br />minimum standard. He did not want to open pandora's box. Hanson <br />stated that were it not for the fact that applicant had no <br />acquirable land, he would not be in favor of such a proposal <br />either. Kelley added that there is also history to take into <br />consideration. Assistant Planning and Zoning Administrator <br />Gaffron explained that the City has allowed variances for much <br />less than 2 acre parcels in the past, but only in single, <br />separate ownership situations. This case is unique in that the <br />property in question is substandard and is owned by an adjacent <br />property owner. City Ordinances prohibited a property owner <br />under such conditions to sell off the property and obtain a <br />building permit. Motion, Ayes*3, Johnson and Cohen Nay, Brown <br />abstained. Zoning Administrator questioned Brown's abstention. <br />Planning Commission member Brown stated his reason to be that he <br />did not get the full benefit of the discussion due to a late <br />arrival. Gaffron apprised Brown of the gist of the application <br />and a recall vote was taken. Motion, Ayes=*4, Johnson and Cohen, <br />Nay, Motion passed. <br />#1310 HOWARD BISINGER <br />3245 WAYZATA BOULEVARD <br />RENEWAL CONDITIONAL USB PERMIT <br />SECOND REVIEW <br />The applicant was present for this matter, as was Mr. John <br />Gannon of Park Construction. <br />Zoning Administrator Mabusth stated that this matter involved <br />the renewal of a conditional use permit for 100,000 cubic yards <br />of fill to be obtained from the "394" project and placed on Mr. <br />Eisinger's property. Mabusth stated that the City Engineer had <br />addressed the issue of time involved with grading and seeding. <br />The City Engineer had determined which months would be best for <br />seeding. It will be staff's responsibility to call when the <br />seeding and grading should take place. Mr. Gannon had also <br />written a letter in response to the concerns involved with the <br />amount of trucks and time it would take to haul 100,000 cubic <br />yards of fill.
