Vice -Chairman Shearen called the meeting to order. Members present; Hill, L'Allier. Absent; Karth, Kelling, Nadeau, Rothbauer. Mr. Marier was also present. Due to a lack of a quorum, the minutes of the April meeting could not be approved or corrected. This was tabled until June 19, 1974. The people who were in attendance were informed that their questions could be answered but no decisions could be made at this meeting. Mr. Prokop, who owns lots in Otter Lake Hills and wishes to build on these lots was here to ask what was necessary to bring that street up to City codes in order for him to obtain a building permit. These lots are located on Lakeview Avenue. At the present time the street only exists on the plat. There has been some excavating done in the area of the street, but this was done by a man hauling the soil out for fill in another area. It was suggested that he contact the adjoining property owners and ask that the share the cost of surfacing the street. This could be done either by the property owners paying the cost of having the street surfaced or it could be done by special assessments against the abutting lots. Mr. Prokop will contact the Clerk's office for the Ordinance dealing with street installation. He will also contact the other property owners for their thoughts on how this can be done. He thanked the Board for the information. Mr. Bill Meyer of Suburban 7.ngineering, presented the Board with the plans for a driveway to the townhouse units in Country Lakes. There was discussion on the fact that this is a private driveway. The Board felt that they woul`rather see a permanent street installed. Mr. Meyer that if a permanent street is installed the utility services should be installed before the surface is installed. If the services aren't put in first this would this would mean tearing up the surface and doing the street again thus doubling the cost. The Board suggested that he look at some alternate plans and return to the next Planning and Zoning Board meeting. iir. Meyer said he would do this and asked the Clerk to put him on the agenda for the June 19th meeting. Mr. Kenneth Rehbein and Mr. Jerry Blackbird were here for information dealing with the Pine Haven plat. Mr. Rehbein said that the recommenda- tions of both the Engineer and the Pianner was that they only build on every lot. The streets in the area will cost $32,000.00 and if they can only build on every other lot, they cannot afford to complete this
