Karth, Gourley, Nadeau, Hill. Members absent: Shearen and Reinert. Mr. McLean, Council liaison was also present. Mr. Gourley explained to the audience that the name plates on the desk did not apply to the people presently seated. Mr. Kelling moved to approve the minutes of September 15, 1976. Mr. Karth seconded the motion. Mr. Nadeau noted that the police report on page 4 paragraph 3 was not complete. The paragraph should include; "the police report stated that Chief Myhre had observed the properties of Joe LaCasse, Jr., L. & B. Tree Service, Vincent Knopik, and Henry Miersand noted the time observed and his findings. The Board did not take any further action." Mr. Kelling amended the motion to include the above paragraph. Motion carried. Mr. Gourley presented the September 29, 1976 special meeting minutes. He noted the changes on page I, paragraph 8 to include "District map for area I & 2" and paragraph 11, page I changing the word control to guide. Mr. Nadeau stated that a paragraph should be added noting; "Mr. Nadeau had stated that he felt the spec- ial meetings were called for the purpose of discussing the business relating to the Metropolitan Council demands and he reprimanded Mr. Gourley for inviting private citizens to appear for reasons other than the planned agenda.' Mr. Nadeau moved to accept the minutes as amended. Mr. Karth seconded the motion. Motion carried. Mr. Gourley presented the October 13, 1976 special meeting minutes. The last para- graph on page I was discussed. It was suggested that the paragraph should read, "This acreage is not as likely to be developed in the immediate future.' Mr. Kelling noted that Green Acres is documented proof of usage. After further discussion the Board decided that it would not do any good to change the minutes. Mr. Karth moved to approve the minutes as written. Mr. Hill seconded the motion. Motion carried. Ronald Van Kleek Mr. Van Kleek presented a request for a variance to builda new home on a lot of less than 21 acres and without the required 150' frontage. Mr. Van Kleek's lot has front- age of 69' on a 33' roadway easement. Mr. Hill asked who owned the triangle shape lot fronting on Peltier Drive. Mr. Kell- ing and Mrs. Anderson checked the assessors records and could not definitely deter- mine who owned this lot. The Board suggested to Mr. Van Kleek that the simplest thing to do is to buy the frontage property and then a variance would not be required. Mr. Hill asked if the driveway easement is on the lot line and also is it on the frontage property making a total of 66' easement. This was not determined. Mr. McLean suggested that Mr. Locher could clear up this matter. It was also suggested to Mr. Van Kleek that he and the lot owner to the north obtain ank dditional 33' and construct a 66' wide City approved road across both lots. Then a variance could be granted for a building permit. Mr. Baber Mr. Baber presented a map showing six lots of more than 22 acres and 4 lots with 150' frontage or more. Mr. Nadeau noted the two lots with existing homes. Mr. M. Lean noted that 2 lots have less than 150' frontage. Mr. Baber explained that the easement is a private easement for the use of the two adjoining property owners.
