O © PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES OF FEBRUARY 2, 1981 The Planning Commission met on the above date. The following members were present: Chairman Hammerel, Adcims, Goetten, Jabbour, McDonald and Rovegno. Mabusth represented the City staff. Muehlburg and Arnott were present. There was no one in the audience to address chis application. Richard Hassel, developer of Lafayette Ridge, cal­ led for information on the proposal and stated that the project had many merits. He realized the tri­ plex application could not possibly meet ordinance requirements but felt the City must deal with the existing structure and lot. The applicants noted again for the record that the single, abutting property owner would not sell the additional land required to meet the area require­ ment. Rovegno questioned the location of the fuel tanks. Staff advised that the refueling station nas been there for years. The Company leases the site. Revegno was concerned with the nearness, some 20 feet, to residential structure. He questioned what other uses could be made of the existing structure. Staff advised that Council through a deed restriction filed against the property would permit only a residential use. Adcuns asked why the property could not be developed within the standards of the existing ordinance? Arnott stated that a single or duplex would not ut- lize potential of building and that the costs related to initial sale and reconstruction costs require at minimum 3 units to make project pay. Jabbour feels a 3 unit PRD too cunbitious for a .25 acre lot aiid noted that the applicant's claim of financial hardship is not acceptable. He reviewed the many variances required to approve the proposal. 1- area and setback variances 2- hardcover variance 3- driving setback 4- setback for offstreet parking Rovegno moved to deny the conditional use permit ap­ plication of John Muehlberg and John Arnotr for the ATTENDANCE 7:30 P.M.
