140 PLANNING AND ZONING October 9, 1985 Page Two Also approved was Roselyn Van Elsberg's preliminary plat and variance to lot size. This item was considered at the P & Z's 8/14/85 meeting. Mr. Kluegel also mentioned that at the Park Board's invitation, Mr. Prokop joined the Park Board on their tour last month of the City, in search of potential park property on the east side of the City. Mr. Prokop gave a report on the tour under Old Business later in the meeting. Mr. Kluegel stated that he felt that because of a lack of complete information on the request, the application by Lino Ventures (which appears on this evening's agenda) should be tabled until complete information is available. Mr. Harvey Karth was in the audience and later in the evening did appear before the Board to discuss what information was available with regard to the Lino Ventures applica- tion. PLATTING ORDINANCE - ZACK JOHNSON At the P & Z's 8/14/85 and again at their 9/11/85 meetings, the Board, in agreement with the City Council, asked that the City Planner and the City Attorney review the platting ordinance as it relates to the platting and recording of conveyances, and submit a proposed ordinance which would not place undue economic hardship of a formal plat on all applicants. Recently, a few conveyances have been approved via the Council waiving the requirement for a formal plat. The P & Z Board and Council felt that the ordinance should address separately the procedure for appli- cations requiring plats and those not requiring plats. Mr. Johnson referred to his 9/10/85 memo regarding this issue. At- tached was a rough draft of the revision he proposes for the platting ordinance. He stated that this revision should address all the con- cerns of the P & Z and Council. The Board reviewed the proposed ordinance and felt that the language was still unclear and made suggestions for clarification purposes. MOTION: Mr. Prokop moved to have Mr. Johnson and the City Attorney again revise the platting ordinance and submit a final draft including the suggestions made for clarification. Mr. Cody seconded the motion which carried unanimously. Mr. Johnson said he felt confident that he understood what the Board will be looking for as a final draft. UNDERGROUND ROAD POLICY At the 8/14/85 P & Z meeting, Mr. Goldade presented a policy which has been adopted by Dakota County regarding underground road work. Mr. Goldade presented this policy to the City Council asking that Lino Lakes also adopt it. The City Engineer has commented by memo twice on the present policy for underground road work.
