• • • Planning and Zoning Board October 10, 1984 Page -4- The Board was not in favor of lots of only 45 foot frontage. They were also not in favor of the twinhomes (which they felt would have to be zoned R -2) being sprinkled around the plat rather than in one specific area. The Board felt that approving R -1 in some spots and R -2 in other spots would definitely be considered spot zoning which is not allowed. Mr. McLean noted that Mr. Ulmer's application was for a rezone to R -1 and a conditional use permit for twinhome lots. The Board felt that this was an improper application, because twinhomes within an R -1 area are not allowed even as a conditional use. Mr. Kluegel said he had helped Mr. Ulmer put together the application per recom- mendations by Mr. Bill Short in 1981 (when this issue first arose). Mr. McLean stated that those recommendations were useless due to the fact that the ordinance regarding this type of situation has since changed. Mr. Doocy asked Mr. Kulaszewicz if the Council had given the P & Z Board any direction as to how to proceed with Mr. Ulmer's request since they had been involved in the sewer issue as it related to Mr. Ulmer's proposed 4th addition. Mr. Kulaszewicz said that the Council had only discussed the developers agreements and had given fio direction. The Board felt that if Mr. Ulmer could present a good reason for his request including the twinhomes, they would consider it. Mr. Ulmer said his reason was that the inclusion of the twinhomes creates a higher density, thus lowering the sewer costs of the individual lots. The Board felt that this was not the type of reason they could accept. A good reason might be zoning a particular border as R -2 to be used as a buffer from adjacent areas. However, this is not the case. Mr. Ulmer became continually more frustrated with the Board, because of the fact that he felt that the Council was aware of his plans for over two years and now he has come across this stumbling block. He felt the Board was not cooperating and finally, angrily left the meeting. Mr. Kluegel said he was not aware of the twinhome concept that Mr. Ulmer had in mind. Mr. Prokop moved to table this item pending receipt of more complete information as to what is in the plat. Motion seconded by Mr. Cody. Mr. Prokop made editorial change to his motion to also include re- ceipt of a proper application. DOG KENNEL ORDINANCE The Board considered and changed the dog kennel ordinance line -by- line. The new proposed draft is attached.
