PL SUBCOM 05/01/1969 - 31040� lr.� �. PLATS & SUBDIVISIONS- STR�`I'S & UTILITIES SUBCOMMITTEE MEETING MAY 1, 1969 PAGE 1 The meeting was called to order by Chairman Jensen at 8:30 P.M. �tOLL CALL : MIIKBERS PRESENT: Crowder, Batterson, Jensen, Myh�a, Zeglen OTHERS PRESENT : Engineering Assistant Clark 1. LOT SPLIT REQUEST: L.S. #69-�2, NORBEftT J. LIESEN: Lots 27, 28 and 29, Block 4, Oak Grove Addition. Mr. Liesen was pres.�nt. It was explained that the lots in the original plat were all 40 feEt. Lot 30, which is vacant and lies north of Mr. Liesen's property, is a corn.er lot. Mr. Liesen said he tried to buy this lot but was unable to agree on a price with the owner. There is a home on Lot 29, but Mr. Liesen wished to split the three lots so that he would have two 60 foot lots. If in the future, he could purchase Lot 30, he would not object to a 100 foot corner lot. A new street has just been put in with sewer and water. This would probably amount to about $3,000 in assessments and Mr. Liesen felt he would have a bett�r chance to se7:1 a 60 foot lot rather than a 40 foot one. MOTION by Myhra, seconded b.y Batterson, that the Plats & Subdivisions- Streets & Utilities Subcommittee recommend to the Planning Commission approval of the Lot Split #60-12, Norbert J. Liesen, of Lots 27, 28 and 29, Block 4, Oak Grove Addition. Upon a voice vote, all voting a,ye, except Crowder voting nay, the motion carried. Mr. Crowder said the onl,y reason he voted against the request was to call attention to the fact that a problem does exist with regard to the 40 foot corner lot and serious consideration should be given to what would �appen on �� that corner lot. 2. CONTINUID REZONING RE UEST: ZOA 6-02 GEORGE M. NELSON: Road �attern Study. Referred by Council to Planning Commission. Mr. Geo�ge Nelson and Mr. Howard Moore were present. The Engineering Assistant explained that Mr. Nelson has a request pending before the Council for rezoning the North half of Lots 30 and 31, Auditor's Subdivision #129. The Planning Commission denied this request because of probable increase of traffic and street pattern. Mr. Nelson has reduced the size of his request so that there would be a strip of R-1 lots along Onondaga, and the balance would be a future plan for multiples. The Pla.nning Commission thought the whole block should be looked at before they would make a recommendation. From this Body, what they wan.t to lff�.ow is�if this plan is adopted, what would be the recommendation as far as atreets are concerned. In 1962 a street plan was made, but at that time, the whole block was R-1. If the whole block was rezoned, the guess is that it would develop from 73rd Avenue to the north line of the zoning group. In that case, the proposed � � �' Page 2 Plats & Subs Streets & Utilities minutes May 1, 1969__ streets in the suggested pattern, would not be necessary. The streets which have already been dedicated, could be vacated. MOTION b,y Crowd�r that the Plats & Subdivisions-Streets & Utilities Sub- committee recommend to the Planning Commission approval of ZOA #69-�2 and that further recommendation as to road easements as shown on Lots 4, 5.and 6, Auditor's Subdivision #108, upon adoption of the rezoning of these streets be vacated, and if this zoning plan is adopted, no interior streets are necessary. In the discussion which followed, it was decided that it was inappropriate to vote on the rezoning, as the request was for an opinion of the street pattern. Mr. Crowder withdrew his motion. MOTION b.y Myhra, seconded by Crowder, that the Plats and Subdivisions- Streets & Utilities Subcommittee bring the informatian forward to the Planning Commission that if the rezoning would take place as shown on the map dat�d April 25, 1969 for the rezoning study, that it is the conclusion. of the Subcommittee that the interior streets are not needed in that area and that the streets previously dedicated on Lots 4, 5 and 6, Auditor's Subdivision #108 be vacated. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, the motion carried unanimousl.y. 3. CONTINUID LOT SPLIT REQ,UEST: L.S. #69-11, EI,MER FLOWER.S: Lots 6& 7, Block 2, Gunderson Terrace.
