PLANNING REPORT TO: Mayor and City Council /Planning Commission FROM: Ken Roberts /Stephen Grittman DATE: 5 February 1988 RE: Little Canada - Leibel Development Proposal FILE NO: 758.09 - 88.03 BACKGROUND Mr. Jim Leibel and Mr. Robert Leibel have submitted an application for a sub- division request to facilitate the development of land located behind the tier of lots fronting on Twin Lake Boulevard and Twin Lake Road. Exhibit A of this report shows the proposed lot and block development. PAST ACTIONS AFFECTING THIS PROPERTY The Little Canada City Council approved a variance request to permit the con- struction of a dwelling on a lot with less than 75 feet abutting a public street for this area on May 27, 1987 with a number of conditions. The applicant agreed to the imposed conditions and now is presenting a plan subject to those. On the same date, the City Council granted the applicant's request for a three - year variance approval through May of 1990 upon the filing by the applicant a written request for extension of the variance. This was to allow the applicant enough time to resolve the access issues with the proposal. PRESENT REQUEST The applicant's proposed subdivision plan for the area is in conformance with the previous conditions stipulated by the City Council and would appear to re- solve and conclude the concerns relative to the area's development. Mr. Leibel's proposal would create 3 lots of 29,584.1, 29,696.9 and 52,431.1 square feet re- spectively. While these parcels are greatly oversized, the plan finalizes how this site will be utilized.
