Gaffron stated he would suggest that the application go through the entire process but that in his view there is an argument to be made that the previous variance could be revised and that he would like to get the opinion of the City Attorney on the matter.

Turner stated the application, if need be, could be heard at the June Planning Commission meeting and be back before the City Council in July. 5. #08 -3355 TIM HAUSER ON BEHALF OF CLEMENT KROLL, 60 STUBBS BAY ROAD SOUTH — PRELIMINARY PLAT Clement and Winnifred Kroll, Applicants, were present. Turner stated the applicants are requesting approval of a preliminary plat to divide the property into four lots. This was ghost platted at the time the lots on the south side of Christine Drive were divided. One change from the ghost platting was a revision to the lot line due to the location of the septic sites. The Planning Commission recommended approval of the application subject to the applicants completing a number of items, including submittal of the drainage area map. The City Engineer has not received that map due to the applicants' engineer being on vacation. Murphy asked whether Items 1 through 8 listed in the Planner's Report have been resolved. Turner indicated the majority of the items cannot be resolved until the time of final plat and that the • applicants have not yet filed a drainage area map with the City because their engineer has been on vacation, which is delaying the application.. .
