MINUTES CITY COUNCIL JULY 25, 1990 RECESS CONCEPT OF PRELIMINARY PLAT - COSTA ESTATES Blesener asked if the driveway could have a T-configuration rather than allowing two curb cuts. The City Planner pointed out that there is not adequate room for a T-driveway. There was no one from the general public present wishing to comment on this matter. Upon motion by Fahey, seconded by LaValle, the public hearing was closed. Mr. Blesener introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLUTION NO. 90-7-347 - APPROVING A VARIANCE TO ALLOW A HORSESHOE DRIVEWAY WITH TWO CURB CUTS AT 626 EAST COUNTY ROAD B-2 AS REQUESTED BY CHARLES AND MARY ANN VERMEERSCH SUBJECT TO THE RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE CITY PLANNER AS CONTAINED IN HIS REPORT DATED JULY 10, 1990 The foregoing resolution was duly seconded by LaValle. Ayes (5) Blesener, LaValle, Scalze, Collova, Fahey. Nays (o). Resolution declared adopted. At this point in the meeting, 9:16 P.M., Council took a short recess. The meeting was reconvened at 9:26 P.M. Mr. Bob DeBace appeared before the Commission requesting concept approval of a preliminary plat for Costa Estates. Scalze asked why the Council would consider the concept without input from the surrounding property owners. The City Planner reported that a full public hearing will be held on the preliminary plat. Iiowever, due to the need for construction of DeSoto Street, and the assessment issues that would be involved, he suggested that the concept be presented to the Council. Scalze pointed out that the property is already platted, and the proposal decreases the size of the existing lots. DeBace replied that this is correct. Currently the property is platted in 100 foot wide lots, and the new proposal calls for lot widths of 84.6 feet by 127 feet deep. PAGE 17
