114 <br />COUNCIL MEETING <br />September 23, 1985 <br />Page Twelve <br />Mr. Kluegel explained that the rational for granting the variance <br />was due to the large amount of easements on the property. How- <br />ever each lot does meet the ten (10) acre requirement before <br />easements and two of the three lots meet the frontage requirements. <br />Mrs. Houle asked where is the drainage proposed to go. Mayor Ben- <br />son explained this plat is not for small lot development. At the <br />most only two dwellings can be constructed, one of each of the two <br />vacant lots. <br />Mrs. Anderson read the letter from Mr. and Mrs. Orrin Clover who <br />request that this area remain strictly rural and also request the <br />former owner be contacted as well as Mr. Pete Nadeau who is rent- <br />ing the farm land. <br />Mr. Nadeau said he is not concerned about the platting of this prop- <br />erty. He felt confident that he would be able to get his crop off <br />of the land. He asked about the frontage variance and Mr. Kluegel <br />said the variance was for one lot only of 238 feet. <br />Mr. Kulaszewicz moved to close the Public Hearing at 8:25 P.M. Mr. <br />Bohjanen seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. <br />Mayor Benson asked about park dedication and Mr. Kluegel told him <br />the park dedication is due prior to signatures on the plat. <br />Mr. Kulaszewicz moved to approve the Planning and Zoning Boards <br />recommendation for preliminary plat approval and a variance to lot <br />size and width. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Motion carried <br />unanimously. <br />STATUS OF CENTENNIAL FIRE COMMISSION CHAIRMAN BUDGET - NEAL BENJAMIN <br />Mr. Benjamin explained that at the present time the Fire Department <br />is within budget overall. However some line items are over budget <br />such as vehicle maintenance, insurances and accounting services. <br />Through July the total number of calls by the Centennial Fire De- <br />partment has been 107 fire calls and 119 medical calls of which 65% <br />of the fire calls were in Lino Lakes and 61% of the medical calls <br />were in Lino Lakes. The Commission is concerned about limiting <br />the number of medical calls. Part of the problem is the dispatching <br />system. <br />Mr. Benjamin explained that the proposed 1986 budget has increased <br />substantially. There are two fire marshalls and one secretary bud - <br />getedthis year. He explained the situation regarding the fire mar - <br />shalls and the need for them. They are budgeted at $7,600. <br />1 <br />
