Lake Elmo Agenda Section: Planning, Land Use and Zoning No. 9A City Council November 21, 2006 Agenda Item: Minor Subdivision - Bergmann Background Information for November 21.2006: On September 25 the Planning Commission unanimously adopted a recommendation to approve this application to detach 1.33 acres from an existing parcel of 30+ acres, and consolidate the 1.33 acres with an adjacent 5 acre parcel. This action is a condition of a variance approved by the City Council on September 5 that allows the barn structure on the 1.33 acres to co -locate with an existing accessory structure on the homestead 5 acre parcel that would then be 6.33 acres in area. An issue addressed briefly by the Council during the variance preceding, and again in detail by Staff in the September 21 Planning Staff Report was clarified subsequent to the preparation that Staff Report. On September 22 the Eileen Bergmann delivered a copy of an August 2005 Contract for Deed that conveys the 5 acre homestead parcel from Richard & Eileen Bergmann to Chad & Colleen Bergmann. Since Richard & Eileen Bergmann are the owners of the adjacent 30+ acre parcel, there are no contiguous ownership issues as the Staff Report details. Since the Contract for Deed has not been recorded with Washington County, and therefore not reflected by the GIS records that staff uses to establish ownership. The Minor Subdivision that is recommended by the Commission for approval therefore exactly replicates the physical circumstances addressed by the prior variance action by the Council. No easement requirement is included since the necessary easement has been secured by the City across other property.
