WEST Mr. Garley presented a survey of the lot in question and plot plans. Mr. LARPENTEUR Forrest Asher, the Manager of the apartment buildings in question was also present. Garley advised that previous to his purchase of the buildin SUBDIVISION RE S g, UE T Q which was in November, 1985, there had been parking allowed along the drive- way as well as parking diagonally in the middle of the parking lot. Since, the Falcon Heights Fire Department has disallowed parking in these areas. This has caused parking problems for his tenants as there are 42 parking stalls for 34 units. There are 17 units in each building with six units having a single bedroom and 11 units having two bedrooms. The units are rented to University students on the whole. Due to tenants getting tickets during the winter months and during the state fair, Garley requested the subdivision to add sixteen additional stalls to his parking lot. He would have to remove two existing garage stalls to provide an entrance to the additional parking lot. There is no parking on Fairview with two hour parking allowed on Larpenteur Avenue between the hours of 8:00 A.M. to 4:30 P.M. Also snow emergencies cause problems for tenants. Garley also proposed four parking stalls along Fairview.

Tenants have six months leases SULLIVAN and after six months the lease runs on a monthly basis. Trent-Sullivan asked if there was any visitor parking to which Garley replied that there was no visitor parking and tenants are not assigned stalls as they are on a first come first serve basis.
