MINUTES PLANNING COMMISSION DECEMBER 9, 1999 that no sanitary sewer improvement is pending in the foreseeable future, and extending that deadline to February 29, 2000 should Mr. Costanzo petition the City for sanitary sewer improvement, and further subject to compliance with the remaining requirements of the Zoning Administrator as outlined in her report dated November 5, 1999, Motion seconded by Duray. Motion carried 6 — 1. Knudsen voted against. FINAL PLAT Mr. Dick Kimmes appeared before the Commission requesting & VARIANCE Final Plat approval for Gilanderi Addition. Kimmes noted that GILANDERI the plat consists of four single- family lots. It was originally ADDITION proposed with five lots, but was reduced down to four. Kimmes noted that filling is occurring on Lot 1 of the plat and ponding for the project has been moved to the southwest corner of Lot 4. Kimmes described the width of the existing street, and noted that the plat will result in the widening of Gilanderi Lane adjacent to Lots 3 and 4. He further noted that right -of -way is being dedicated for a cul -de -sac at the end of Gilanderi Lane. This right -of -way is being dedicated in the event that Highway 36 is widened and the loop street through the neighborhood is eliminated. Kimmes indicated that it appears unlikely, however, that the loop street will be eliminated. However, should that happen, additional right -of- way will be needed for the cul -de -sac from the property owner on the east. It would be the Highway Department's responsibility to obtain that right -of -way should it be needed. Kimmes further reported that he is requesting a five -foot front yard setback variance for Lot 4. He noted that the setback is from the cul -de -sac right -of -way, and it is unlikely that the cul -de -sac will ever be improved. He also pointed out that he is trying to save as many trees in the area as possible since these trees provide a noise barrier from Highway 36. David Farley, property owner directly across the street from this plat, reported that he had no concern with the variance. Mr. Farley indicated that Mr. Kimmes has been required to drop the level of the street at the south end. He requested that this be minimized since the street level provides for some additional buffering. Page 5
