. Planning and Zoning Board • April 16, 1980 •Pae Five • Lot 5 is to be included in this also making the numbers lots 5 through 11. The general feeling of this Board was that they would prefer to hold this number of lots to 15% of the overall plat. Mr. Tramm presented a design of the proposed duplexes which are two floor but side by side duplexes. Mr. Bathke moved that Block 2, Lots 5 through 11 be recommneded for rezoning to R2. Mr. Prokop added that one copy of the developer's sketch be included in this proposal for Council consideration. Seconded by Mr. Johnson. Motion delcared passed. The lot split for Mrs. McClean was considered. The representative said he had called a surveyor and it had been suggested, that in order to save money, they felt that an indication of whether this lot split would be allowed would be advisable before the actual work is done. This lot is a corner lot facing Sunrise Avenue with the side street being Fairmont. This lot contains approximately one acre and has one house on the lot at this time. This type of split has been allowed in this area in the past. The general consensus of the Board was that this would be allowed. The representative was advised to proceed with the variances for this split. The next item to be considered was a request from Mr. & Mrs. Illg for the placement of a trailer on private property located along Pine Street. Mr. Illg owns 5 acres of land at that location, Mr. Schumacher presented the Council's request that this be submitted as a special use permit. The fee has been paid, pictures of the trailer are attached. Mr. Schumacher reminded the Board that Ordinance 6Q allows Moble homes in a mobile home park only. The legality of this was discussed.. It was felt that if this is allowed it would almostVimpossible to disallow the next request for the same thing. Mr. Johnson felt this was creating an ongoing problem. Mrs. Illg was asking for permission to keep the mobile home on that property for at least five years. Mr. Johnson felt this would open the door for many more requests of this same nature and this Board would find it hard to deny these requests. Mr. Barthke felt this Board was being asked to make a concession due to the economy and he flet this is something all persons are facing the same problem/ This City's Ordinance states that mobile homes must.'be placed in a mobile home park. He felt this family was not being placed in a position any different than many other mobile home owners. Mr. 0 Johnson felt this could lead to a city of temporary homes. Mr. Bathke moved to recommeded to the Council that this special use permit application be denied. Seconded by Mrs Johnson. The motion declared passed.
