LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES JULY 19, 1988 PAGE 3 Bruce Folz presented the F.J.Crombie 2nd Addition third revision of the Preliminary Plat which he advised now meets the 1% calculations and was designed with this criteria. Karen Chandler, of Barr Engineering (VBWD Engineer) has advised that the second revised plat had not been received from the applicant and their report on the drainage and erosion control, of this plat would not be before the VBWD Board until July 28th. City Attorney Knaak stated, in regard to the 24' width of their road, the Council has to consider if this is unique enough to grant the variance in order to decide other requests that come in the future. Folz also asked the Council to consider adding "No Parking" on the cul-de-sac roads in the development. The consensus of the council was that the plat, as distributed at this meeting, was revised significantly to table for review by the City Engineer and VBWD. Actions requested were: 1.) Original signature of Veronica Crombie (as owner at the time of submission on the platting application); 2.) Copy of the Contract for Deed (for sale of the property to Brian Crombie), and County certification of filing of the Contract for Deed; (3.) ownership report on property from the applicant or his attorney. 4.) Review of the revised Plat by the City Engineer and review for drainage and erosion control requirement by the VBWD. M/S/P Graves/Armstrong - to table action on the Preliminary Plat; F.J.
