Amended Concept Plan for Large -Lot Subdivision Will Stenzel/George Krueger Administrator Morrison explained Will Stenzel had changed his previous proposal of three lots with variances because he met objection by the Planning Commission. Morrison added, Mr. Stenzel came into the office and requested his proposal for two lots be reheard by the PZ and a hearing be set for a two -Lot, Large Lot Subdivision. The same variances are required as were required for the 3-lot, Large Lot Subdivision. George Krueger was in the audience and indicated he had. not heard from Mr. Stenzel since the last PZ meeting. Steve DeLapp pointed out the staff indicated in the coversheet they had learned the applicant proposed to store his equipment from a construction business in a pole building on the lot on which he builds his home. Under Accessory Uses in Rural Residential Zoning, unless a construction company is an allowed use, a storage building for construction materials would be subordinate and incidential to allowed uses and structures. Dick Johnson did not believe the Commission should be granting multiple lots on a single driveway which creates more problems for the City and encourages the applicant to seek putting in a city street which would be a cul-de-sac which would be too long. Dick didn't feel an auxiliary building created a problem as long as the building is of the square footage allowed for accessory buildings. Just because the equipment is part of this business, Dick indicated, there is nothing stating you cannot bring your ' tools of your trade home with you and put them in a storage building. The Public Hearing is scheduled for October 9, 1989 before the Planning Commission.
