Informational Memo for 6-4-85 City Council Meeting Page 2 <br />8. Wish to acknowledge that the City is in the process of having a <br />dead dutch elm tree removed from city property near the water tower. <br />This tree is dangering some telephone lines. The removal of this tree <br />should make an area resident, Mrs. Earl, very happy as she has <br />complained about this tree a number of times. The tree is <br />approximately thirty inches in diameter and will be removed by an area <br />resident who has expertise in this area, Mr. Eldon Smith. The cost to <br />the city will be approximately $130. <br />9. At a previous city council meeting there was discussion about the <br />limitations for the number of commercial buildings on one lot. At <br />that point in time we felt that the septic system requirements were <br />the only limiting factors in determining the number of buildings on a <br />lot. The staff and council both felt that it was quite unusual that <br />it was not specifically spelled out in the code that only one <br />principal building should be allowed per lot. After further research, <br />we have found a section of the city code (not in the General Business <br />Zone area of the city code) that specifically states "There shall be <br />no more than one principal building on any one (1) parcel of land". <br />This is a requirement in all zones and clearly states that we cannot <br />allow more than one commercial building per lot. I have notified Mr. <br />Stouvenel of this code requirement so that any future efforts he has <br />to construct a second facility on a site that has an existing building. <br />will not proceed any farther in the future. <br />
