He stated there was discussion at the Planning Commission that, if the lot split is approved, i REGULAR MEETING OF APRIL 23, 1979 R,�GC 4 it would create the need for a variance of the front yard setback for the existing house. The Plann�ng Commission's recommendation, therefore, was for approval of the lot split contingent upon whether or not a variance is needed. Mr Sob�ech stated the City Attorney has stated the variance had to be a separate procedure since, with the lot split, only the property owner is invited to the hearing, but with the variance, the surrounding property owners would be notified Pir. Sob�ech stated the variance process allows the Board of Appeals to make the decision regard�ng the set6ack �n a restdential area.

Mr. Herrick felt ilie lot split could be approved contingent on orderin9 the hearing on the variance, before taking final action on the lot split. He felt this would be reasonable because, if the variance is not approved, he didn't think P�r. Fehn would want to split the lot. Councilman Schneider stated his basic concern was the al�gnment, and wanted to make sure the variance did come before the Council. MOTION by Councilman Schneider to conditionally approve the lot split contingent upon granting the variance and final review by the Council. Seconded by Council- man Fitzpatrick Mr Sobiech stated as soon as Mr. Fehn takes out a building permit for the garage, the variance process would begtn since he would be adding on the a non-conforming use.

Counc�lman Fitzpatrtck felt the Council d�dn't get many requests of this nature from the Commissions and, if tt is something they need and isn't that costly or diff�cult to provide, he felt their request should be honored or give some reason for not honoring it.

Mr. Boardman stated in Minneapolis the Ctty took control of the property and then tried to get development, which wouldn't to the case in Fridley.
