LAKE MAO CITY COUNCIL MEETING, OCTOBER 169 1979 -4- LANES DEMONTBEVILLE CONTINUEDs Mayor Armstrong explained the City is proposing to leave the properties as they are, only those areas indicated would not be vacated, The City is not proposing improving the streets that remain, The Administrator recommended that no further building permits be issued to lots in this area unless they are on improved publio streets. It is questionable whether emergency vehicles could get in and out now. Also, the oul-de-saes will have to be dedicated, Allen Siedel - asked the mewing of dedicating a cul-de-sac, The City would take title and the cul-de-sac would become part of the street, an easement to the public for street purposes.' The cul-de-sac right- of-way proposed will have a 50 ft. radius, Mr. Wood - He is opposed to the Bennett cif. -de -sac. He is afraid of getting more water across his property and the cul-de-sac would take part of his yard. Allen Siedel - asked about the cut -deg -sac on Dempsey. The Administrator stated that there is another lot at the end of Dempsey and the City should consider impxovemnt of this road before another permit is granted. This is the only area in the City where building permits (two within the last year) were granted on an unimproved street or without any private driveway agreement. This allows 4 or 5 houses on Dempsey and no improved public street. a The residents are satisified with the street as it is and do not want the street improved. The property owner of the end lot on Dempsey stated they intend to apply for a building permit, but do not want the street impmoved. The have a letter from the previous owner Mark Lamott, given by the Village stating this is a buildable lot. .Allen Siedel asked what the City has in mind relating to the statement in the memo saying the City would like a petition for street improvements on the remaining roads when the vacating procedure is complete. The lot owner on Dempsey asked what would be necessary for them to build? Mayor Armstrong said a variance would be necessary. This would require bringing the 'driveway' up to the standards for emer- gency vehicle use and provide the property owner maintain it winter and summer for emergency vehicles. If the cul-de-sacs on Bennett and Dempsey cannot be obtained, then Bennett will remain as it is, all of Mack would be vacated, and Argyle would be vacated from Bennett to Dempsey. Argyle will remain open to Hill Trail. Mayor Armstrong closed the public hearing at 9 p.m. Armstrong moved, seconded by Morgan, to table this discussion until November 60 1979. At that time, -the Council will consider vacating everything but Bennett, Argyle to Bennett, Dempsey, and from Dempsey up Arryle to Hill 'grail. If an agreement of property owners can be reached to deed an easement for a cul-de-sac at the end of Dempsey, then Argyle to Hill Trail can be vacated. A public hearing will be held November 6, 19799 at 7:45 p.m, for Lanes Demontreville Country Club street vacations. Motion carried 4-Oo
