PESirawriAL DEVELOFT^rr
Gloria HcDiMiald, I^ad Van Nest, George Ilosfield, Diane Dunlap,
Hregg Hannah and Zoning Administrator, Henry Mtiiich.
Chainnan Pesek called to order the Public Hearing on the
application of the Kelly Avenue Holding Company for a sub
division and Planned Residential Development for property
located at 2500 Kelly Avenue. The Zoning Administrator ''
read the Notice of Public Hearing and presented the Affi
davit of Pi^licaticn. Darrel Ludwauf, representing the
Kelly A'?f?nue Holding Company, explained his plan to build
three condominium duplexes on Lot 1 of the plan and remove**
the present existing apartment building at the site. The
plan is to build two of the isiits and then remove the old
building before the third duplex is constnicted. Basi
cally, Lots 2, 3 and 4 were cue acre single-family lots and
on Lot 2 was an existing cabin. Mr. Ludwauf stated that the
conpany's plans are to move the cabin, but noted that this
must be done in winter across the ice, otherwise it would
necessitate the removal of a large number of trees. The
cabin, in its present low location, could not be code ::o
r^'cted to sewer or water without the aid of a lift station,
applicants planned to leave the existing garage on Lot
W^ecause it was in good condition and could be utilized
oy a purchaser. An easement would be given to Lots 2 and 4
through a driveway on Lot 3. Van Nest noted that Lot 1
contained 160,000 sq. ft, of dry buildable area and that the
20» x 500* comnercial strip contained only 10,000 sq. ft.
which would leave sufficient acreage, even wi^out the
rezoning proposal, to utilize tlie plan. The Conmission
agreed that the sketch plan submitted by the applicant did
not give sufficient information for them to approve the PRD
portion of the application. Mr. Everett Schrbeder of 2565
Kelly Avenue objected to the proposal and felt it was a
mistake to put duplexes on a lakeshore ccxnplex. He stated
that lx)t 1 on the entire west end gets wet quickly and that
the east end was full of water now. Tlie applicant pointed
Lhat the tract was next to a parking lot across from a
bowling alley and would not have the privacy requirements
for single-family dwellings and called attention to the
unsi^tly steep bank tliat would be viewed from the tract.
He felt the duplex tenants were more tolerant of such a
situation, fhr. Schroeder stated that the present blacktop
of the bowling alley extended into Lot 1 of the applicants
pr^rty. The Commission requested the applicant' clarify
uiis situation throu^ new surveys showing the location of
the blacktop in relation to the lot line. Mr. Ludwauf
stated he plsuied to subdivide so that each unit would
^ve a property line a foot or two beyond the building
Vhd that the rest of the land be jointly held in a coopera-
-ive agreement. Several menhers of the Commission advised
against this because of the perpetual maintenance problem
and enforcement by the City if a public nuisance situation

^|hould arise. The Gornnission felt that an owner>tisnailt situa
tion would tend to promote better niaintenance attd d personal
Gon&dm iii relation to the prdpoifty. Tro applicant disagreed,
noting that some of the partners in the coni^y wbiild live in
the area and would have the personal interest maintaining
a high qi^ity of appearance. After all the piblic were given
opportunity to be heard, the hearing was closed*
The Chairman called to order the regular P4eeting of the Plan
ning Comnission at 8:10 P.M.
Hannah moved, Dunlap seconded, tiiat the Minutes of the
Planning Conmission I^leeting held April 5, 1976 be approved.
Motion, Ayes (6) - Nays (0).
The Commission proceeded to discuss the rezoning application
of the KeJ.ly Avenue Holding Company to down zone the 20* x
500* strip of commercial B-3 area within their residentially
zoned tract. Van Nest felt that the City would receive no
benefit by leavmg it commercial and Pesek agreed, feeling
that if it remained commercial it could be made into a park
ing lot or similar use at a fiiture time. ftr. Everett
Schroeder objected, stating that the present Keaveny Dnig
paxking lot blacktop was extending into the residential area
^md the rezoning would only give a benefit tio tiiem and not
wie City. The members felt that this was not the situation
but requested staff to verify the matter. Mr.
of the Kelly Avenue Holding Conpany stated to ^fF7^'afoeder
that it was more of a benefit to them to leave the conmercial
area s^tus quo in order for them to have better position
regarding the zoning provision requiring duplexes to be within
200 ft. of the comnercial area. However, their purpose for
the rezoning was to provide a better buffer area from the
business (^strict. Van Nest moved, Hosfield seconded, that
the rezoning application of the Kelly Avenue Holding Company
be tabled until their next regular meeting in order that
exact infoimation regarding encumbrances on the property be
clarified. Motion, Ayes (6) - Nays (0).
Van Nest moved, Pesek seconded, that the Planning Commission
recommend to the Council conceptual approval of the siib-
division request of the Kelly Avenue Holding Con^)any, but
that Lot ** not be considered buildable until the cottage
is removed, ^fotion, Ayes (5) - Nays (0) - Abstain (1)
Dunlap.
Hannah moved. Van Nest seconded, that the Planning Conmission
recommend to the Council that the City vacate a four foot
STRIP OF Hill Street lying adjacent to the entire extension
^of the A. T. Esco property because it would be unrealistic
) believe that Hill Street could serve as access to any
other property except Lot 7, . and the renain-
ing ^6 ft. of the street would provide amole access to Lot 7
and the Coimission strongly advises that ho consideration
ever be given to extend Hill Street for future use due to

easements for access to all parcels. Motion, Ayes (6) -
Nays (0).
Ihe Conmission gave consideration to the request of Kenneth
Oien for a subdivision of his property at 2980 C^co Point
Road. After review, the Zoning Administrator inerted that
the City Attoiney had advised concerning the road and ri^t-
of-way situation and stated that the Ci^ c^ only deduct
the street area presently used by the City in the consider
ation of the total build^le area at the side. Pe^ek
moved, Dunlap seconded, that the Planning Conmissibn recom
ment to the Coincil that the subdivision application of
Keimeth Oien be approved as sibmitted but subject to pay
ment of the Park Dedication Fee. Motion, Ayes (6) - Nays (0).
Van Nest moved, Dunlap seconded, that the Planning Com
mission recomnend to the Council approval of kenneth Oiea's
:o fill and grade with the stipulatiohs
allowed to fill around his house arid di^iveway atea in an
equal fiot more than ^00 cubic yards ih any one
place and not oaoper than 5 ^t. or within 1^0 ft. from the
amouiit to
lakaahore bacause the itdd is elevated 20 ft. above the
of the lot and the lot is at lake level so that the
Siduse was constructed without a basement and the fill would
compensate for fill normally taken out of a basement exca
vation and used for normal grading; also, that the work be
approved by the City Engineer; that sewer and water assess
ments be determined by the City Engineer and that no retain
ing walls be built except with the approval of the Zoning
Administrator. The underground drain tile and any change
in drainage would be the owner's responsibility subject to
approval of John Gerhardson, Road Su^rintendent. Motion,

tion easements and payment of the Park Dedication Fee.
Motion, Ayes (6) - Nays (0).
