MINUTES PLANNING COMMISSION JANUARY 13, 2000 Barraclough recommended approval of the Variance from the rear yard setback requirements as requested by R. J. Marco Construction for the Rice Street redevelopment site based on the finding that a hardship exists given the shallowness of the lot as well as the requirement by the State and County for the dedication of 17 feet of additional right-of--way for Rice Street. Motion seconded by Knudsen. Motion carried 6 - 0. The Planner reported the need for approval of a property division by metes and bounds description. The developer would like to proceed with the financing of the property and the sale of a portion of the site that lies to the east toward Park Street. Given the lengthy process for finalization and recording of a plat, division of the portion to be sold by metes and bounds description would speed up the process for the developer. The Planner noted that the Commission also needs to act on the Preliminary Plat for the site.
