The subdivision ordinance supports this by prohibiting the <br />creation of flag lots. <br />Staff indicated access to the new lot would be from Main Street. As long as this was the <br />access intended by both the City and the applicant, it was reasonable to make the access a <br />public right of way that accomplishes a number of public purposes. In addition, it <br />provided continued access to the adjacent property. <br />Staff stated approval of the application as submitted was to forego an opportunity for <br />implementation of the City's long -range plan. <br />Staff recommended that the minor subdivision be approved only if a road easement was <br />dedicated to the City that included the one -acre piece and the eastern 66 feet of the larger <br />11 -acre portion. <br />Staff stated the two conditions of approval would be a roa as. 1 be dedicated <br />to the City that includes the one -acre piece and the east 6 eet e larger 11 -acre <br />portion, and the park dedication was $1,665.00. <br />Staff recommended approving the minor subd' 'on kith t conditions as listed. <br />Mr. Corson inquired about the wetland b <br />wetland.
