. Page 9 Planning and Zoning Commission, May 16, 1979 the south and then put in a base material turn -around. He wanted to know if he would have to pave the whole thing and then tear it up later. Mr. Dobie also presented an item concerned with feasibility on lot A. A lot with a 33 -foot right-of-way on the south end of Main Street yeilds 3.5 acres which includes the Wood Duck Trail right-of-way; if the county wanted 75 feet instead of 33 feet, that would leave lot A with 3.1 acres. He was thinking in terms of residential and wanted to know about putting in a duplex or double bungalow. The Aragon is right across the street. He is planning on putting a buffer of trees in there. Mr. Gourley said a duplex or double bungalow is multifamily housing (R-2) and would require rezoning. Mr. Bodie said he prefered residential to a corridor of commercial property. Mr. McLean indicated there was a request from the Council which did not appear on the agenda to review Shenandoah Third Addition in its original form as it was platted back in 1977. Mr. Rehbein's representative had approached the Council on the idea of resubmitting this. It appeared before the P&Z in March, April and May of 1977, and was before the Council and a public hearing was held July it 25, 1977. There was a 90 -day period after the hearing that a final plat had to,2 be made; that never happened, so the matter has co o.p--a-ga'im -They_are asking' for the same layout asked for before with the 11,2square footage lot size; therefore, all planner's recommendations and so on are still valid. It was approved by the Council, but that approval becomes null and void because it expired. The variance to allow the 10,000 square footage lot size is a moot point. The planner's and engineer's reports were read by Mrs. Anderson, and the planner's letters of February 11, 1977 and April 20, 1977 were also read. The Council minutes pertaining to this were also consulted. Mr. Rehbein is not going to pursue the Rice Creek Watershed and DNR items until after the public hearing. Mr. Reinert wanted to know if any planning had been done with the adjacent property. The owner had apparently promised to sell the property and a variance had been granted, but the owner decided not to sell after all. The situation is not resolved as of yet. Mr. Gourley said that everything was in order with the exception of the items mentioned in Mr. Zelinka's motion from the Council minutes. Mr. Shearen moved to recommend approval to the Council of this plat as per the approval of July 25, 1977. Vi Schwankl seconded the motion. All were in favor. The motion was declared passed. Mr. Reinert felt that in the future items should not be added to the agenda at the last moment (as in this case). The matter of Richard Klenck's special use permit for the parking of vehicles, which had been recommended by the P&Z on January 17, 1979 was considered. There had been a breakdown in communications when it got to the Council; the Council had granted him a special use permit to construct a pole storage building (pole barn). There has been some trouble since then with the Core of Engineers, who had stopped all his work. There was some question on whether the Commission wanted to consider this at this time. Mr. Gotwald had said he could have the information for the next meeting. Mr. Klenck is currently parking trucks without the special use permit. There was a question of proper zoning for this operation. This will be put on the agenda for the next regular meeting. Mr. Johnson was scheduled to present a report at this time on minimum house sizes and lot sizes. Mr. Johnson indicated he had tried to call a meeting of the sub- committee, but was unsuccessful; however, he had copies of a report he had pre- pared to present to the Commission. Population densities were also included in the report. He pointed out that some areas recognize a split level and a split
