MINUTES CITY COUNCIL JULY 23, 2003 Planner further noted that the City Engineer's preference is for the first plat proposal submitted. Fahey indicated that the Council relies on its professional staff in these matters, and it appears that the developer has done nothing to address the recommendations of the City Planner and the City Engineer to bring the plat into conformance with the Subdivision Ordinance. Fahey noted that there is no hardship present to warrant varying from the Ordinance, and recommended that the developer redraw the plat to bring it into conformity. Blesener asked if the cul-de-sac should be straight in from the intersection or offset. The Planner replied that it was acceptable to offset the cul-de- sac. The Planner suggested another possibility for addressing the issues may be to enlarge the cul-de-sac. Carlson asked for an explanation of the front yard setback that would be required as it relates to R-1 zoning as well as the Shoreland Ordinance. Fahey pointed out the explanation that was given to Mr. Carlson at the Planning Commission meeting that the property is zoned R-1 and the Shoreland Ordinance also applies. When two standards are applicable, it is the more restrictive of the two standards that is enforced. The City Planner explained that that was con~ect. Fahey stated that it appeared to him that the developer has done nothing since the Planning Commission meeting to bring the plat into conformance with the Subdivision Ordinance and suggested that the developer do so. He noted that the City is up against the 60-day requirement. Therefore, if action is tabled until the August 13`x' meeting, the developer will have to waive the 60-day requirement. Carlson requested action be tabled until August 13°i so that they can redrawn the plat and indicated that he would waive the 60-day requirement.
