SCHUMACHER's REPORT ON COUNCIL ACTION Due to having only three members present at the last Council meeting, no action could be taken on the rezone request. The variance request for Mr. Krube was approved. Mr. Schumacher reported there had been discussion on the Comprehensive Plan and on the need to hold another public hearing on the Plan. He will keep the Board aware of the actions of the Council on this matter. VARIANCE - MR. ZADUTKE 41) Mr. Zadutke had been present but was not present at this time. This matter was laid aside for the present. VARIANCE - OLSON Mr. Olson has a lot on West Shadow Lake Drive and is seeking a variance to construct a home on that lot. Mr. Doocy reported that a lot in an unsewered area must contain one acre and this lot contains only 1/3 acre. Under Ordinance #56, a!lot must contain at least 600 of the requirement, otherwise, a variance is requried. Mr. Prokop pointed out this is a low lot and also is on the Lake side and this area will be carefully monitored. Mr. Schumacher pointed out that old lots of record are the lots that must contain 60% of the current requirements in order to be developed. If the lots do not contain this 60%, then a variance is necessary. This lot is in a plat that was filer before the Ordinance was passed. The lots were platted as lots to be sewered but the sewer was never installed. Now, in order to develop those lots, it must be proven that a septic system can be installed without causing pollution to the Lake. Mr. Prokop noted the area to the South that had been considered for platting just recently. He said he would like to see a contour plan of this area and 41) a plot plan showing where the house, septic system and drain fields are to be located. Also, the location of the well. Mr. Johnson felt the City is almost in colusion with the sellers of this property in that this buyer was unaware of the requirements for development of the lots.
