STREETS & UTILITIES SUBCOMMITTEE MEETING 7:00 P.M. JANUARY 20, 1971 PAGE 1
The meeting was called to order at 7:05 P.M. by Chairman Schmedeke.
ROLL CALL:
Members Present: Schmedeke, Crowder, Engdahl, Pierce, Meissner
Members Absent: None
Others Present: Darrel Clark, Engineering Assistant
1. LOT SPLIT REQUEST: L.S. ##71-02, THOMAS R. SWANSON: Lots 3, 4 and 5, Block
5, City View Addition. To make two 60 foot lots out of three 40 foot lots.
Mr. Swanson was present.
Chairman Schmedeke explained that there are quite a few platted areas in
Fridley with- lots- only- 40 feet wide, and this is one of them. The new Ordinance
requires 75 foot lots But provisions were made to accept 60 foot lots. By com-
bining three 40 foot lots and splitting them in half, the petitioner gets two
60 foot building sites. This procedure has been done frequently. Across the
street from these lots are a number of nice homes although they are not real
expensive ones.
Mr. Swanson stated he will be the builder of the homes.
The Engineering Assistant said there were homes on either side of these
three lots so that there is no more land available. He continued that normal
lots in Hamilton's Addition to Mechanicsville and Hyde Park Addition are 40
foot lots. Mr. Swanson is putting in garages for both houses, and this is a
requirement of the Ordinance now. The exit will be on 57th Place.
In answer to the question of legal description for the new split, the
Engineering Assistant said it would be Lots 3 and 4, except the East Half of
Lot 4, Block 5, City View Addition. The other lot would be East Half of Lot 4
and all of Lot 5, Block 5, City View.
MOTION by Crowder, seconded by Meissner, that the Plats & Subdivisions-
Streets & Utilities Subcommittee recommend approval to the Planning Commission
of the Lot Split Request, L.S. ##71-02, by Thomas R. Swanson for Lots 3, 4 and
5, Block 5, City View Addition. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, the motion
carried unanimously.
2. LOT SPLIT REQUEST: L.S. #71-01, CHARLES R. LA BEAUX: To split off the
S11 of Ell of Lot 34, Auditor's Subdivision #92.
Mr. La. Beaux was present and said that the lot he owned was essentially
twice as deep as necessary. He had been transferred and expects to come back
and build on the South half of the lot trusting that access to that area
would, some day, be possible. Since they like the location, they would like
to hold that piece of ground.

2. LOT SPLIT REQUEST: L.S. ##71-01, CHARLES R. LA BEAUX: To split off the
Sl� of the E;� of Lot 34, Auditor's Subdivision #92.
Mr. La Beaux was present.
Mr. Schmedeke explained that this request was before the Plats & Subdivisions
Streets & Utilities Subcommittee earlier in the evening. Mr. La Beaux is attempt-
ing to sell the house on the front part of the lot. The lots to the South,
Lots 40, 41, 42, 45, 46, 47, 48, 50, 51 and 52 have been acquired by the City
for park purposes and the possibility is that the City will want a street access
at the northern edge of the proposed park. Mr. La Beaux has agreed to give a
30 foot easement on the South end of his property which will also line up with
a similar easement on Lot 35. The City would be asked to put a red tag on the
South Half of the lot until such date that street, sewer and water are put in
before Mr. La Beaux can build. The recommendation to the Planning Commission
was approval.
The Engineering Assistant added that some people worry about this sort of
property going tax forfeit. In this case, with a park adjacent, if this property
or adjacent property were to go tax forfeit, the City would take the property
to extend the park boundary on the North. If it should go tax forfeit, it
would not be a piece of ground lying unused.
ACTION by Zeglen, seconded by Schmedeke, that the Planning Commission recom-
mend approval of Lot Split #i71-01, by Charles R. La Beaux to split off the South
Half of the East Half of Lot 34, Auditor's Subdivision ##92 with the stipulation
of the dedication of the Southerly 30 feet of Lot 34 for street purposes, and
that no building permit be granted until the lot can be serviced by sewer,
water and street. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, the motion carried
unanimously.
3. LOT SPLIT REQUEST: L.S. #71-02, THOMAS R. SWANSON: Lots 3, 4 and 5,
Block 5, City View Addition. To make two 60 foot lots from three 40 foot
lots.
Mr. Swanson was present.
Mr. Schmedeke explained that this item was also presented to the Plats &
Subdivisions-Streets & Utilities Subcommittee earlier this evening. This is
one of the normal things that seems to be happening in Fridley -- taking three
forty foot lots and making two 60 foot lots. The Subcommittee approved this
type of request a number of times in the past and they approved this one, too.
He was certain the homes Mr. Swanson would build would be compatible in this
area and probably more so. The homes will be facing 57th Place and will be
seen from the front and back as the backyard would abut 57th Avenue.
Mr. Swanson said the houses would be ramblers and he would use Masonite.
Darrel Clark added that there were homes on either side of these lots,
so that there is no more land available.
