LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES 1-8-85 <br />PAGE 4 <br />What Mr. Grabski essentially did was to make three nonconforming lots <br />out of one non -conforming lot; and also sold the only acceptable site <br />for a drainfield (Lots 610 and 611) that had been planned for Lots 612 <br />thru 615 and Lots 5211 thru 527 where a house now exists and is to be <br />included in the 201 Program. What this means is that our 201 Program <br />will probably have to buy back Lots 610 and 611 to get enough land to <br />solve the septic system problem. <br />The County Recorder's office used to be aware that whenever they got a <br />property transfer to record, and it was less than the City's required <br />acreage, they would notify the City and we would tell them whether or <br />not they could accept it. Somehow that practice has been <br />discontinued. <br />Bohrer suggested that we get together with the Recorder's office and <br />find out how we can get back to working together. They are not <br />responsible for enforcing our ordinances, but generally they should be <br />aware of it so we are working together. <br />The City Attorney has recommended that the City file suit to have this <br />land sale recinded. The owner can then come back and go though the <br />simple lot subdivision process, which should have been done, to see if <br />any subdivision is appropriate. <br />M/S/P Mazzara/Morgan - To commence legal action to have this land <br />sale recinded. (Motion carried 5-0) <br />6. City Council Reports (None) <br />7. Annual Organizational Meeting <br />A. Election of Acting Mayor <br />M/S/P Armstrong/Christ - To appoint Council member Bruce Dunn as <br />Acting Mayor during the absence of Mayor Morgan. (Motion carried <br />4-0-1 <Dunn>) <br />B.
