Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Prokop questioned the receipt of two ordinancetwith the same number of 74. (Clerk's Note: They are two separate ordinances with the same number - one was prepared by Mr. Locher and one prepared in the offices) Mr. Prokop also questioned the ordinance stating that chairman and vice - chairman will be appointed by the Mayor and Council - he asked Mr. Schumacher if this is common practice and Mr. Schumacher said he did not know. Mr. Prokop was concerned in that the advisory boards are volunteer persons and felt the Council should expect to get poeple who are interested in the community and who would approach problems with an open mind. He just wondered if this was common practice. Mr. Schumacher reported on the actions of the Council in relationship to recommendations from the P &Z Board. The only actions was the passing of the Ordinance declaring a moratorium on the splitting of land by metes and bounds in lands containig 5 acres or more. This is to ensure good planning. minutes on the meeting after the special hearing on Jan. 7, 1981 are not ailable. Mr. Prokop asked what the Council actions were on the special use permit application for the construction of the quads. Mr. Schumacher reported that the Council had approved the special use permit by a 3 to 2 vote. Mr. Prokop asked the status of that action and Mr. Schumacher said teh home owner's attorney had said it would be taken to Court but the City has not received any further notice to date. The first item on the agenda was a varaince request by Glenn Rehbein for) the splitting of the vacated park land in Shenandoah I. They proposed to split this parcel into three lots. There was discussion on the actions taken in the vacation of this ark property and Mr. Karth explained that a parcel in Shenandoah II had ill dedicated to the City to replace this parcel of land plus $4500.00 in cash. There was discussion on the size of the lots, the drainage ditch and the fact that the square footage does not meet current City Ordinances. Mr. Karth referred to the Comprehensive Plan where the possibiiity of allowing some lots of 10,000 square footage was proposed. Mr. Heath arrived at this point in the meeting. Mr. Bathke felt these lots should be considered as a part of the original plat and he could consider this smaller size appropriate. The figures on the proposal are incorrect and must be corrected before any action can be Open. Mr. Heath moved to/able the variance request by Glenn Rehhein pending re- submission as a 2 lot split of the parcel in question. Seconded by Mr. Boocy. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Roger Acton's request for a rezone was considered.
