MINUTES City Council October• 28, 1987 Nauth Mr•. Blesener• indicated that he was in favor• of a fr•ont yar•d setback Pr•oper•ty var•i ance of a few feet, but was not i n favor• of a 20 foot var•i ance Division as being r•equested by Mr~. Hauth. & Variance (Cont.) The City Planner• noted that the str•eet r•ight-of-way for• Sylvan thr•ough to Demont has not been vacated, and asked if ther•e was the potential for• the str•eet to be extended in the futur•e. If not, the Planner• suggested that the r~ight-of-way be vacated and houses be allowed to build ar~ound the cul-de-sac as is nor•mally done on cul-de-sacs. The Ci ty Engi neer~ agr•eed that the str•eet r~i ght-of-way for• Syl van thr•ough to Demont should be vacated, however, it will be necessar•y to r•etain a utility easement. Scalze did not feel that the City should gr~ant a var•iance unless ther•e is a specific r~equest for~ a var~iance. Blesener~ suggested that the lot split could be acted upon at this time, and the issue of the fr•ont yar•d setback var~iance could be consider•ed at the time ther•e is a r•equest for~ a building per•mit on the lot. Blesener• stated that he was not pr~epar•ed to vote on a var•iance until he knows the size of the var~iance. Ther•e was no one el se pr•esent wi shi ng to comment on the Nauth pr•oper•ty division r~equest. Mr~. Blesener• intr•oduced the following r•esolution and moved its adoption: RESOLUTION N0. 87-10-508 - CLOSING THE PUBLIC HEARING ON THE HAUTN PROPERTY DIVISION AND VARIANCE REQUEST The for~egoing r•esolution was duly seconded by P9r~.

Scalze noted that without the easement ar•ea, the Hauth lot will be under• the City's 10,000 squar~e foot ar•ea r•equir~ement. The Planner~ agr•eed, but noted that easement ar•ea is not subtr•acted fr~om the ar~ea of a lot. The City Attor~ney noted that when this mattev~ was fir~st addr•essed, the Council indicated that in r~etur•n for• r•oad easement for• the Sylvan Str•eet cul-de-sac, the City would gr•ant whatever~ variance necessar•y for• the lots ar~ound the cul-de-sac.
