change to 33 and 5 acres, respectively. Because the site is zoned RR, and one of the resulting parcels is <br />proposed to be less than 10 acres in area, the applicant utilized the Cluster Platting provision of the Zoning <br />District. <br />A significant condition of the Planning Commission recommendation is that County records regarding the <br />resulting 33-acre parcel reflect the fact that the Cluster Zoning provisions were applied. Because of that <br />process, only 1 additional division may be made of the 33-acre parcel to maintain the 4-units/40 acre ratio <br />required across the entire 38-acre site. The Council discussed what the best way this condition for only one <br />division could be preserved. Councilor DeLapp offered the following motion: <br />M/S/F DeLapp/Dunn — to add a mechanism allowing not more than two lots through use of a third party, <br />(use language as in our cluster ordinance). (Motion failed 2-3:11unt, Siedow, Armstrong). <br />The Council also discussed the proposed width of Kelvin Avenue to be scaled down and the style of cul-de- <br />sac. Maintenance Foreman Olinger preferred extending Kelvin Avenue the same width that the road is now <br />and had a concern on the radius of the cul-de-sac for ease in snowplowing. A dead end or other styles of <br />cul-de-sacs could be considered. Since there is no Homeowners Association for this development, Olinger <br />asked who would be responsible for maintaining the Center Island within the cul-de-sac? <br />M/S/P Dunn/Siedow — that Kelvin Avenue not be constructed any wider than existing, that the cul-de-sac <br />be constructed in a teardrop style as suggested by Tom Prew in letter dated January 4, 1999, and if an <br />island is located within it, which it could, the City does not consider it their responsibility to maintain. <br />(Motion passed 5-0). <br />Administrator Kueffner pointed out that there should be no commercial operation such as boarding of <br />horses or a horse stable and arena on the property without the City's permission. Tim Freeman, <br />representing the applicant, stated his client is very aware of this regulation and there is no commercial <br />operation on the property. <br />M/S/P Dunn/DeLapp — to adopt Resolution No. 99-7, (as amended: deleting Condition No. 2), A <br />Resolution approving the Preliminary Plat for the Abbott/Friederichs property, Collopy Hills. (Motion <br />passed 5-0). <br />C. Livable Communities Act <br />At its January 5, 1999 meeting, the City Council tabled consideration of a resolution that would continue <br />the participation of Lake Elmo in the State Livable Communities Act for calendar 1999. The Council <br />directed staff to determine if the Village Planning Grant received by the City, but work under which is not <br />yet completed, would be jeopardized if the City decided not to continue its participation in Livable <br />Communities. In his letter of January 14, the City Attorney advised the City that neither the Grant <br />Agreement nor the State Enabling Legislation for Livable Communities would appear to require <br />participation by the City to retain the funding under the Grant. <br />M/S/P DeLapp/Siedow — to adopt Resolution No. 99-8, A Resolution electing to continue participating in <br />the local housing incentives account program under the Metropolitan Livable Communities Act with the <br />knowledge that the City can withdraw participation anytime during the year. (Motion passed 3-2:Dmm, <br />Armstrong: Has a problem with the Met Council offering money to influence the City, The Met Council is <br />holding something over our head that we don't need. Mayor Hunt stated he voted for the motion because <br />the current development pattern is progressing toward our goals). <br />9.
