4. LOT SPL RE EST: L.--S� X85-04 BY J. A. MENKVELD b ASSOC. INC.: Split
Lot 7, Blockroo v ew Znd Add1t10n(except the SoutH 100 ft. thereof
into three lots, 2 - 70 foot lots and 1 - 75 foot lot to be used for single
family residences, the same being 1040-1050-1060 67th Avenue N.E.
Mr. Robinson stated this property was located south of 67th Ave. and west of
Brookview Drive. At the last Planning Commission meeting, this was part of
an overall concept for a townhouse development, but that request was withdrawn.
Mr. Menkveld was asking that this property now be split into single family
lots which was consistent with the R-1 zoning in that neighborhood.
Mr. Robinson stated the parcel in question was split prior to this. The old
lot line which was approved by the City Council ran down the approximate
center of the property; however, this split was never recorded at the County.
At this time, Mr. Menkveld was desiring to split the parcel into one 75 ft.
lot on the corner of Brookview and 67th and two 70 ft. lots to the west. The
total square footage of each of the lots was greater than required (9,000
sq. ft.). The easterly lot was 10,103 sq. ft., and the two westerly lots
were each 9,380 sq. ft. Variances associated with the lot split involved
the two westerly lots --from a lot width of 75 ft. to 70 ft. These variances
would be heard at the next Appeals Commission meeting so there was the oppor-
tunity for a public hearing.
Mr. Robinson stated that at this time, they would like to make the petitioner
aware that he would be assessed for any street or utility improvements. The
City was requesting two park fees since three lots are being created from what
is now one lot.
The petitioner, Mr. Menkveld, stated he felt this proposal would appease some
of the problems presented by the neighbors at the last public hearing on the
townhouse development. He felt the lot split was very appropriate to all the
city regulations. He had no problem with this going to the Appeals Commission
for a public hearing.
Mr. Ferguson, 6811 Oakley St., stated he appreciated what Mr. Menkveld was
doing by building single family homes, and they were very satisfied with the
proposal.

Mr. Flora, Public Works Director, stated plans and specifications have been
prepared for the improvement of Mississippi Street and University Avenue
intersection. He stated the Oounty is planning the improvement be done in
1986 and the City would be doing the nor thw est side of the intersection
improvement at this time.
Mr. Flora stated the HRA is working with the owners of Holly Shopping Center
and a plan has been adopted to improve this intersection area. He stated
the improvements require advertising for bids for the necessary landscaping,
irrigation, and street lighting along the boulevard areas and to the
entrance of the parking lot.
Mr. Flora stated the assessments for these improvements would be paid for in
an amount not to exceed $127,000 by the owners of Holly Shopping Center and
the balance paid by the HRA.
Councilman Schneider asked if the tenants in Holly Shopping Center were
aware of this agreement. He stated the owners of the shopping center are
apparently attempting to collect some fees f rom the tenants f or the
improvements, particulary the signs. He stated some of the arguments he has
heard is the landlord is getting the improvements paid for by the HRA and
yet is trying to charge the tenants for it. He felt it may make sense to
spell out specifically the HRA and the shopping center owner's involvement
so the tenants will know exactly what is happening.
Mr. Qureshi, Qty Manager, stated there is an agreement between the HRA and
the owners of the Holly Shopping Center and it is a public document. He
stated the owners of the center have advised the City they have informed
