• • COUNCIL MINUTES MARCH 24, 1997 ultimate building size of 14,613 square feet. The site is zoned LB, Limited Business which lists medical clinics as permitted use. Mr. Brixius stated the Planning and Zoning Board recommended approval of the site plan review at their March 12, 1997 meeting with the conditions outlined in the staff report. Mr. Wessel explained that two (2) variances will be needed for this improvement. He said the philosophy on these two (2) variances is to take away the emphasis on Lake Drive. He stated this will provide access to the rest of the area and therefore the Tagg property will be more valuable in the future. Council Member Lyden stated he did not feel clapboard siding or cedar shakes are long-term building materials. Mr. Wessel stated this building will not have either of these materials. Council Member Kuether clarified the variance changes. Mr. Wessel stated this Town Center will ultimately be a special zoning district. Therefore, these variances are being asked for because they fit into what ultimately will be the guidelines for this area. Council Member Bergeson moved to approve the site plan review, minor subdivision and two (2) variances for Fairview Clinic with the conditions stated in the Staff Report. Council Member Lyden seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Consideration of Minor Subdivision, John Barry, 7058 Sunrise Avenue/Greenbriar - Ms. Wyland informed the Council that Mr. and Mrs. Barry would like to split a 105 x 159 strip of property from their existing 313 x 159 parcel at 7058 Sunrise Drive. The property is Zoned R-1 Single Family and indicated as such on the City's land use map. The utilities are available to serve the new lot and were stubbed to the property line at the time utilities were installed several years ago. The existing lot was connected to sewer and water in 1996. Ms. Wyland reviewed the required City's ordinance for width, depth and area and indicated that this would meet all the requirements of the ordinance. Ms. Wyland explained the Barry's have adequate area to create three separate building sites, however, at this time there is a detached garage that would be located on the middle lot. The City's Zoning Ordinance prohibits the erection of an accessory building prior to the principle building, therefore, staff has recommended the applicant wait until a later date to split the middle lot or remove the accessory building. The Barry's have opted to wait to split off the middle portion of the site. Ms. Wyland indicated the Planning and Zoning Board recommended approval of the minor subdivision with the conditions outlined in the Staff Report dated March 12, 1997. Council Member Kuether moved to approve the minor subdivision for John Barry, 7058 Sunrise Avenue/Greenbriar, with the conditions outlined in the March 12, 1997 Staff Report. Council Member Bergeson seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. PAGE 16
