MINUTES OP THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MAY 15, 1989 ZONING PILE #1410-PRINEAS CONTINUED across their property as well. Ms. Carol Laquey, the applicants* real estate agent, provided a brief history regarding the easement. She said that once Heritage Drive was put through, there was no longer a need for the easement. She said that the applicants' parcel was designed to access off of County Road 15. She said that if the easement were used, the access would be over 450' in length. Planning Commissioner Bellows said that she would prefer to see the access occur somewhere other than County Road 15. Ms. Laquey asked if the City would be willing to maintain Railroad Avenue. Bellows replied that this would be no different than any ether subdivision and that an outlot designation would be required. Kelley pointed out that the applicants were not subdividing. Bellows commented that in any event, accessing off of County Road 15 was a bad idea. Gaffron said that accessing in another location may interfere with the septic sites. Planning Commissioner Brown questioned whether it would be possible to share a driveway with the Stearns? The Stiernas indicated that they would be in favor of such a proposal. It was moved by Chairman Kelley, seconded by Planning Commissioner Cohen, to recommend approval of this application provided that there be no additional access off of County Road 15. Mr. Nelson disagreed with such a proposal saying that it made the application contingent upon the neighbors' approval. Motion, Ayes=5, Nays=0, Hanson abstained. (Planning Commissi ner Hanson departed at this time). REVIEW OF REVISED WORDING - ZONING CODE AMENDMENTS Planning Commissioner Cohen questioned the wording of sections of these amendments for the sake of clarity. In Section 1(c)(2), the heading should be revised to read "Oversized accessory structures are regulated by the following table:" (Planning Commissioner Bellows departed at this time.) Section 1(c)(3)(c) should clarify that the covenants and agreement be "in writing". Also, sentence structure with no change in meaning was changed in Section 1(c)(3)(c)i and ill. Section 1(c)(4) was revised to refer to any required yard as defined for each zoning district, to clarify the intent and meaning. Section 2 was revised by changing the sentence structure and adding the words "tota1 area", "combined footprint", and "all principal and accessory structures", to clarify the intents and meanings of these phrases. It was moved by Chairman Kelley, seconded by Planning
