Planning and Zoning Board June 17, 1981 Page Three • Mr. Flannery asked that the landscaping plan be in detail with a time frame for completion. The motion was seconded by Mr. Swistoski. Mr. Doocy was concerned with the drainage problem, he felt this problem had been before the Council some time ago and he thought this matter had been tanken care of at that time. Motion carried unanimously. FEASIBILITY PRESENTATIONS - TWILIGHT III $ IV Mr. Blackbird presented the proposal for the platting of these two parcels of land for Planning and Zoning information and suggestions. This is not a preliminary - he is asking if it is feasible to plat in the manner that is proposed. There was discussion on the topography of the land, the existing streets, the reasons why the lots are laid out in the manner they are, and some problems that should be considered. The general consensus of the Planning and Zoning Board was that there needs to be more work done on these designs per the suggestions made at this meeting. • VARIANCE - KLIMEK This is for a long driveway of approximately 500 feet. Mr. Bathke pointed out that the maintenance of the driveway for emergency vehicles is the responsibility of the property owner. Mr. Flannery reported that he has walked this land and the only building- site is on the rear of the lot thus necessitating the long driveway. Mr. Flannery said the proposed location of the driveway will need to be raised due to the fact of the low lands in the front of the lot. Mr. Schumacher questioned the use of the 30' easement as a private driveway. Could the owner, sometime in the future, come to the City and demand that the City maintain this since it is on City Property? There was some discussion of this point. Mr. Schumacher will consult with the City Attorney on this matter. Mr. Doocy moved to recommend approval of this driveway as presented, with the stipulations that the owner be responsible for the maintenance of the driveway and that it be kept free and clear for emergency vehicles, and that the fill dirt be brought in. Seconded by Mr. Swistoski. Motion carried with Mr. Flannery abstaining. VARIANCE - GEORGE TAYLOR • Mr. Taylor had originally applied for a soecial use permit for a car lot.

The Council had approved this
