ROAD VACATION - Larry Brokke Mrs. Barb Brokke appeared before the Board as a prospective buyer of a parcel of property east of 35E presently owned by Al Augustine. The Brokkes would like to build a home on the property and feel that the best building site is where the future road easement lies. The Board reviewed the situation recalling that this road easement was proposed and accepted about a year ago when the P & Z Board and Council approved a subdivision of the property. At that time they accepted this alignment for a future road. In reviewing the site on which the Brokkes wish to build, it was determined that there would be insufficient frontage on which to build a home. This problem was explained to Mrs. Brokke and alternatives were suggested. MOTION: Mr. McLean moved to table application No. 87 -10 by Al Augustine /B. J. Brokke pending resubmission after review of lot size requirements with the Building Official. Mr. Prokop seconded the motion which carried unanimously. Mr. Stahlberg noted that in his opinion, from an engineering standpoint, a realignment of the proposed road may be in the best interest of the City due to the fact that the present alignment runs through a low area which would create construction j,noblems in building the road. He recommended that the P & Z Board take this opportunity to change thealignment of the proposed road. Mr. Cody stated that even if the applicant does not return requesting a realignment, the alignment issue should be addressed - initiated by the P & Z Board. MINOR SUBDIVISION - Glenn Rehbein Mr. Knutson represented Glenn Rehbein in this request for a minor subdivision which would divide a portion of an existing lot and • combine it with the neighboring existing lot. The parcels in question are located in the Shenandoah addition located south of Birch Street and east of Ware Road. Mr. Kluegel and Mr. Knutson explained that the reason for this request is that a drainage swale exists on the lot to be divided. This swale would then become the boundary between the two lots.
