Noting that the proposed lots, if approved, would still leave the two tracts substandard. Van Nest expressed his feelings that the area of the two lots would suggest one building site rather than two building sites md felt the City’s Zoning Code, when two adjoining substandard lots ar§%3ld in single, separate ownership, was to ^i^oisider them as a single bldg site. As an exanple, a homestead Cjmer having a substandard lot adjoining his home tract could not sell it as a building site. Mr. Lantto reviewed the tax benefits of the proposal and felt that the proposal would be compatible to the present density of the neighboihood. The neig^ibors in atten­ dance disagreed with this statement. Hake stated that his con­ cern since the beginning was about vacating the alley, especially QUENTIN JOHNSON, ETAL 353; IVY PLACE ALLEY VACATION § SUBDIVISION ^- - - -j MINUTES OF A PLANNING 0»tHSSI0N I^ING HELD MARCH 1, 1976 - PA® 2. to enlarp someone »s lot for building purposes. He felt the precedent woula be haimful in future situations. Van Nest stated that a vacation must be in the public interest r- u ^ j , , Woolley still felt that changingfive substandard lots into three would be beneficial. The Com mss ion directed their concern to the remaining property owned by Mr. Johnson because presently two living units are situated there and as a part of the consideration ot the presei. \ --- ^ I--------- \JA, Uiro pflTCSCllt^ &PplX* ^tion It was the Gonmission^s duty to be sure that all lot lines would be in mitable ccnfoTmity. The Commission felt that under present conditions they would recommend denial of the ap­ plication becau^ the plan siismitted was not brdad enou^ in should include consideration of Lots 161, 162, 163, 172, 173, 174, 175, 176 and 177 and include a line ii- vide the rental unit from the Johnson house in a repldt. iC 162 could someday be sold as a building site and could lead to forcing the City to open Maple Lane. Hannah moved, Woolley seconded, that the request of Quentin Johnson, Allen Doihldee and Ken Lantto be tabled until ^ alternative proposal is presented. Motion, Ayes (5) - Nays Hannah moved, Woolley seconded, that the Planning Commission recommend to the Council that the Final Plat of the Registered Land Survey of Dale McCurd^r be approved as submitted but sub- ject to the Paric Dedication Fee being paid.

Because the Gomnission had heard rumors cmcerning the management of the Cafe, Police Chief Mel Kilbo Lm been asked to appear and report concerning any problems at u® Qiief stated that eleven complaints were made to the Police last year and were in the nature of sale of 3.2 beer to minors. Two of the complaints were heard in court and char­ ges would be dismissed after the lapse of proscribed time set th© courts. Chief Kilbo felt this was an excessive amount of complaints for this establishment and called attention to Resolution No. 617, issued in conjunction with their 1975 Li- quor License, m which tne owner stated he would construct a partition to divide the liquor serving area from the recrea- tional area O"^ the building or to quit allowing minors in the establishment. He noted Aat tliis had not been done. Chief Kilbo stated that the Police Department had no concern or com­ plaint concerning the soup and sandwich part of the operation. It was suggested that perhaps the Liquor License and Condi­ tional Use Pennit should run concurrently so that all matters ^^uld be considered as a vhole. Mr. Bothe agreed that the should be considered together iSu-fficulties * under a lease situation to Mr. Burak. Woolley moved, McDonald seconded, that the Planning Conmission rec^imend to the Council the ext^icn of the present Conditional Use Permit of the Stubbs Bay Marina until the expiration of the LS'quor License on QUENTIN JOHNSON, ETAL Cont. ‘1’ DAUB McCURDY 4041 NORTH SHORE DRIVE FINAL PLAT STUBBS BAY MARINA CAFE CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 3445 BAYSIDE ROAD 1 i] : j i . 1 I MINUreS OF A PLANNING O0^♦!ISSIC»^ MEETING HELD MARCH 1, 1976 - PACE 3. on Jine 30, 1976, and that reneiiral of the Liquor License and Petadt to setvs sdi;^ and sahdkidies be consi&red together.

Oieh for 2980 Casco Point Road. Motion, Ayes (5) - Nays (0). Although not scheduled as part of the meeting, a new variance application by David J. Kniskc^f was reviewed. Consideration was given to a special problem occuring because of a non-con­ forming situation vdiere the neighboring property had a house encroa^ing the property line to such an extent that it does not even meet mininun State setback requirements. The pro­ blem oc^rred before the City required surveys to be submitted with Building Peimit applications. The Commission felt that botii properties would benefit by adjustments of the lot lines. Van Nest moved, Hannah seconded, that the Planning Conmission direct the Zoning Administrator tc contact Mr. Kruskopf and state that the Plaming Coamission would look favorably to a varian^ if by private negotiations he try to realign the lot line with his neighbor in order to alleviate the one foot side setback problem. Motion, Ayes (5) - Nays (0). The Zoning Administrator presented the rezoning application of Daniel T. Lindsay for 2505 Kelly Avenue.

After co^ideration, the Gonmission agreed that the ?imicipal Parking . Lot would be tte best choice idiere^ possible, a nice bus stop TOlter could be built for the convenience of those waiting for bus service. It would mean that the bus would have to re­ route sligjitly but if the City would continue to maintain the area by idowing it, the MIC may find it a beneficr:! feature and approve the proposal. The Zoning Administrator was directed to convey the Comnission's view point to the Council. '«L' .-i -s V ' S? mm, mmMm f m !4 ' i- , > o V MIC BUSING NAVARRE AREA " Anjw.aw®fr mm- mm mmmfm
