March 23, 1981 274 The Planning and Zoning Board actions were next on the Agenda. SCHILLING - LIGHT INDUSTRIAL ZONING Mr. Schumacher pointed out the portion of this area that will be considered in this rezoning. A portion of the land abutting Lilac has LI zoning at the present time. This would include the reaminder of the lands. The Planning and Zoning Board had recommended approval and a public hearing be set. Mr. McLean moved to set a public hearing for Lino Industrial Park for April 13, 1981 at 8:00 P.M. Seconded by Mrs. Elsenpeter. Motion carried unanimously. REHBEIN - LOT SPLIT This is concerned with Lots 28 4 29 in Equity Estates and each contain 5 acres. Mr. Schumacher pointed out the manner in which these lots would be split. The Planning and Zoning had reviewed this and found no hardship in the land and had recommended denial of this lot split. Mr. Karth said there is no hardship to the land - just that the smaller parcels would make this land available to more persons. The cost of a five acre parcel of land is prohibitive to most people. Mr. Karth said at the time this land was split (3 years ago) the general concept of the market was that people wanted 21/2 to 5 acres, now this marketing trend has reversed - people are looking for smaller parcels of land. Mr. Jaworski questioned the off balance split of one of the lots and Mr. Karth explained that the one lot has a low area and this allows for a one acre building site. Mayor Gourley felt the consideration of whether a hardship of this land exists is not the primary factor here - the major concern should be the moratorium on the splitting of these lots in an area where the Comprehensive Plan designates one unit per ten acres. This is to ensure that City services are not needed in that area ahead of the plan. Mr. Kulaszewicz moved to deny this variance, in that it does not conform to the Comprehensive Plan and there is no hardship of the land. Seconded by Mr. McLean. Motion carried unanimously. FRANK MINAR - VARIANCE Mr. Schumacher reported this is a five acre split from 20 acres, which is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan in that there would be two dwellings on 20 acres. The Planning and Zoning Board had recommended approval of this variance with money in leiu of land. Mayor Gourley - on smaller parcel or the larger? Mr. Schumacher said in order to stay consistent, it would have to be on the smaller parcel. Mr. Minar objected to this procedure and asked why it was necessary for him to pay to split a parcel of land to give to his daughter. Mr. Minar understood that he could give land and Mayor Gourley ex- plained that the recommendation had been for money in leiu of land. In this case the amount would be $750.00, and would be payable before the building permit is issued.
