142 PLANNING AND ZONING October 9, 1985 Page Four would have to ask the City Planer if this formula addresses Mr. Joyer's situation. The City Planner said that he did not feel that it did address the situation and Mr. Joyer would be back at square one. It was also noted that at the time the other homes facing Birch Street were built, the setback requirements were less. Also, since these homes were built, Birch Street was widened. MOTION: Mr. Cody moved to recommend to Council that the request for a variance to setback requirements by El Rehbein 8 Son, Inc., 7989 Lake Drive, dated 8/27/85 be denied due to the fact that the plight of the landowner is caused by economic reasons rather than a hardship of the land; approval of the request is not recommended by the City Planner; approval would not be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the ordinance. Motion seconded by Mrs.Klaus. Mr. Goldade voted no. The motion carried. Mr. Joyer was reminded that he may still appear before the City Council for final approval /disapproval and that the recommendations of the P & Z Board will be forwarded to the Council. LINO VENTURES - ADDITION TO STORAGE BUILDING - HARVEY KARTH Mr. Karth asked that the Board hear the information he has avail- able before tabling this item. Included in the packet of informa- tion for this site and building plan review was a memo from the City Engineer listing concerns. Mr. Johnson also handed out his memo listing concerns. Mr. Karth noted that several of the items of concern are either taken care of already or not applicable to this situation. The two items which need to be taken care of are the permit from Rice Creek Watershed and the topography map. MOTION: Mr. Prokop moved to table consideration of this request for a site and building plan review from Lino Ventures, 7317 -7319 Lake Drive, dated 9/30/85 until the applicant can submit, in written form, info on concerns expressed by the City Engineer and the City Planner as well as a permit from Rice Creek Watershed and a topo- graphy map. Mr. Cody seconded the motion, which carried unanimously. OLD BUSINESS Park Tour - Mr. Prokop reported that he attended the Park Board's tour in September, which was taken as a means of getting ideas for park property on the east side of the City. Several pieces of land were looked at from the northeast corner to the southeast corner of the City. Mr. Prokop felt that the P 8 Z should be aware that the Park Board has a positive feeling toward acquiring land for park purposes on the east side, but that attaining this land may prove to create some difficulties. No decisions have yet been made; the Park Board will continue to move forward with this endeavor.
