MINUTES PLANNING COMMISSION August 9, 1990 of issuance of building permits. Bendel stated that the issue of whether the necessary right -of -way to Allen Avenue exists is a significant one. Bendel suggested that action on the plat be tabled until the Commission has more information. DeLonais pointed out that the final plat will come back to the Planning Commission for review, therefore, he did not believe it necessary to table action on the preliminary plat. Bendel felt there were too many issues up in the air to make a decision on the preliminary plat. DeBace pointed out that even if the preliminary plat were approved, it could not go any further until it is determined if the right -of -way is available. If the right -of -way is not available, another proposal will have to be made. Bendel felt the matter was too vague. The City Planner pointed out that the Planning Commission could require that it review any revised plat lay -out. The Planner suggested that the Commission could approve the preliminary plat subject to the developer's ability to acquire the right -of -way. If the right -of -way cannot be acquired, the developer would have to come back with a new proposal. Pedersen agreed with the Planner's suggestion pointing out that he would not want to pre- approve an alternative without thoroughly reviewing it. The Commission again discussed the issue of cross streets, with Drabik feeling that there should not only be access to the park, but other adjacent streets. Drabik felt this would make for a better neighborhood. DeBace did not feel there would be a problem providing a walkway easement to DeSoto, however, he did not want to see cross streets required. Bendel again indicated his feeling that the preliminary plat should be tabled for lack of information. Bendel pointed out that DeLonais has been a leader in objecting to the lack of information on submittals in the past. DeLonais took objection to this comment. Page 7
