COUNCIL MINUTES MAY 27, 1997 recorded the original subdivision with the County. Mr. Severson would now like to redraw the property lines and provide for two parcels of property, one 12.6 acres and the other four acres. The four acre site would contain the existing homestead and outbuildings. Ms. Wyland explained the original subdivision approved by P & Z and the Council created two parcels, one ten acres in size containing the barn and the other six acres in size containing the existing homestead and two outbuildings. The property is zoned Rural and indicated as such in the City Comprehensive Plan. It was noted Ordinance No. 93 - 18 allows a property constructed prior to July of 1992 to reduce the homesite to a minimum of one acre provided the balance of the site is ten acres or more. Ms. Wyland advised staff has reviewed this request and recommends approval of the rearrangement of the lot lines to create one 4.09 acre parcel containing the homesite and one 12.06 acre parcel with the condition that a $500 park dedication fee be required for the newly created parcel. This fee shall be collected prior to recording the subdivision with the County. The Planning & Zoning Board unanimously approved this minor subdivision, however, they did express concern that the original subdivision may be recorded rather than this revision. Therefore, staff would suggest that Council add a condition that the original subdivision, approved in June of 1996 be considered null and void. Council Member Kuether moved to approve the minor subdivision, Craig Severson (Alan Donat Property), 8134 West Rondeau Lake Drive, to provide for two parcels of property, one 12.6 acres and the other 4 acres (with existing homestead and outbuildings) subject to the condition that a $500 park dedication fee be required for the newly created parcel and paid prior to recording the subdivision with the County, and that the original subdivision approved in June of 1996 be considered null and void. Council Member Bergeson seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously.
