continued-- Planking Commission Minutes of March 22, 1971.
To clarify the question which arose regarding dedication of streets for public
use in plats, we refer to "subdivision regulations" Section R Item (C) Number 11
and Section B, Item (P) Number 1. These regulations clearly state that in a plat
all streets shall be dedicated for public use and all lots shall abut b-: their
full frontage on a publicly dedicated street. We also refer to East Oakdale Townsrip
Ordinance No. 19 which states that building permits may be issued to property that
has access to a minimum of 66 foot wide public street. Building permits may be
issued by special permission of the Village Council for property abutting a minimum
of 66 foot private road easement.
Motion by Bruce Folz: It is the opinion of this commission that the subdivision
regulations regarding public streets be strictly adhered to, with no exceptions.
Furthermore, the issuance of building permits on unplatted property without
direct access to a public road must be by "special use permit" as stated in section
4,04, paragraph "C" of the Model Zoning Code and should be a very rare exception
rather than the rule.
Second by Jack Evert -- 5 aye 0 no.

report to Council. A discussion took place, but no action was requested
or taken.
