MINUTES PLANNING COMMISSION AUGUST 14, 1997 AMENDING SUBDIVISION ORDINANCE RELATING TO PROPERTY COMBINATIONS Motion seconded by Barraclough. Motion carried 4 — 1. Schletty voted against. Schletty stated that he had concern with the operation of businesses and allowing larger vehicles in residential neighborhoods. Schletty acknowledged, however, the improved condition of the property since the Wahlberg's purchased it. The City Planner reviewed an amendment to the Subdivision Ordinance which requires Council approval of property combinations where there are principle buildings on each lot. The Planner pointed out that the Subdivision Ordinance is silent about lot combinations, and this ordinance clarifies the City's position. The Planner pointed out that the combination of two lots each having a principle building would create a non- conforming situation. In the R & S Automotive proposal the property owner intends to combine the two buildings into one. The Planner felt the amendment clarifies the City's position on the combination of two lots each of which has a principle building. This ordinance amendment will ensure that the County does not process a such a property combination without the City's first reviewing the situation. Montour recommended approval of the ordinance amending Section 1001.060 of the Little Canada city code, known as the subdivision ordinance, by providing for the combination of certain lots of record by administrative permit. Motion seconded by Schletty. Motion carried 5 — 0.
