Mr. Bona stated that it seems odd that he would have to reconstruct the entire alley. Mr. Hickok stated that but for this project the alley would not need to be improved or hard surfaced. The improvement cost does need to be born by this developer as part of this project. Ms. Savage asked if this could be brought up at City Council. Mr. Hickok stated that it could. 4. PUBLIC HEARING: CONSIDERATION OF VACATION SAV #99-04, BY MICHAEL AND CLAUDIA GEIS TO VACATE A PORTION OF CHERYL STREET BETWEEN LOTS 1-9 BLOCK L. AND LOTS 25-32 BLOCK M RIVERVIEW HEIGHTS ADDITION ANOKA COUNTY MN GENERALLY LOCATED AT 520 DOVER STREET: Ms. Savage asked if they could combine public hearing number four and public hearing number five. Mr. Hickok stated that would be acceptable. 5. PUBLIC HEARING: APPROVE A PRELIMINARY PLAT PS #99-04, BY MICHAEL AND CLAUDIA GEIS FOR A SUBDIVISION TO REPLAT PROPERTY INTO TWO SEPARATE PROPERTIES GENERALLY LOCATED AT 520 DOVER STREET: MOTION by Mr. Sielaff, seconded by Mr. Kondrick to waive the reading of the notice and open the public hearing. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON SAVAGE DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED AND THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS OPENED AT 9:01 P.M. Mr. Bolin stated that the petitioner was seeking to vacate a portion of Cheryl Street and to replat the vacated street and 22 individual lots into two single-family lots. One of the lots does contain the existing home and the other one would hold a new home. The petitioners own Lots 1-9, 28, 29, Block L, and Lots 1-3 and 25-32, Block M, Riverview Heights. The property is zoned R-1, as are all of the surrounding properties. The southern and eastern borders of the property are bordered by Springbrook Creek. The Geis' own all of the property that abuts the portion of Cheryl Street. If the street vacation is granted and the lots are replatted as Lots 1 and 2, Block 1, both of the lots would meet all of the City code requirements as far as size,and setbacks for the existing home and for the proposed building as well. The lot was platted in 1922, prior to 1949 when the City started issuing building permits the existing home was built. In 1958, a garage was built. In 1965 and 1979, alterations were made to the home. In 1981, the garage was demolished and replaced with a new garage. In 1985, a shed was built. Mr. Bolin stated that due to the fact that the petitioners own all the property abutting the portion of Cheryl to be vacated, and due to the fact that the slopes and creek are on the southern side, it is impossible to build on Cheryl Street; also it does not line up with Liberty Street, staff recommends approval with stipulations. Mr. Bolin stated that staff has determined that it would be in the City's best interest to vacate the rest of Cheryl Lane from the Geis property down to Broad Avenue. There are three other properties that abut this portion of Cheryl Street and staff will be coming forward with requests to vacate that portion at the October 6, 1999, meeting. This will avoid the possibility in the future of someone wanting to come in and establish Cheryl Street as an actual street and requiring a cul-de-sac at the end of it. The assessor has estimated that by giving those three property owners would have a five dollar per year increase in property taxes. Mr. Bolin stated that staff recommends approval for the subdivision request, P.S. #99- 04, with stipulations. Mr. Sielaff asked what would happen if the petitioner sold the lot to someone else. Mr. Bolin stated that the special use permit, with all stipulations, gets recorded against the property, and any new owner would have to follow the stipulations as well. Mr. Michael Geis, 520 Dover, stated that he has moved some of the trees back. He wants to hide the house and landscape it, and he does not want to disturb the trees much at all. He has no problems with the stipulations. The neighbor's only concern is the increase in taxes. He wants to clean the other part of his land up because there is a big hole there and a dead tree. He wants to fill that in and plant more trees and evergreens. He has two driveways right next to each other with a fence on one side. He stated that he grew up on this property. MOTION by Mr. Kondrick, seconded by Mr. Oquist, to close the public hearing. 4 UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON SAVAGE DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED AND THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED AT 8:40 P.M. Ms. Savage stated that she did not think there would be any problem with granting these requests. Mr. Kondrick stated he was in concurrence with Ms. Savage, and it was going to be really nice when it is done. MOTION by Mr. Sielaff, seconded by Mr. Oquist, to approve Vacation, SAV #99-04, by Mr. and Mrs. Geis, with the modification of stipulations #5 with stipulations reading as follows: 1. Grading and drainage plan shall be approved by City's engineering staff prior to the issuance of any building permits, in order to minimize impact to the steep slope and Springbrook Creek. 2. The Petitioner shall grant a drainage and utility easement across all land south and east of the 840 foot elevation line. 3. The new home shall not be built on slopes exceeding a 12 percent (12%) grade change. 4. During construction of new home, silt fencing shall be used where applicable. 5. The petitioner shall pay $750 for the new lot only prior to issuance of building permits. 6. The petitioner shall pay all water and sewer connection fees. 7. The petitioner shall agree to preserve mature trees to the extent possible. All trees required to be removed for the new homes shall be marked and approved by City staff prior to issuance of building permits. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON SAVAGE DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
