T. Torseth, to recommend that a variance be granted to make a
simple subdivision of Lots 27 and 28 into two parcels split north
and south (rather than the present east/west dividing line) in
order to have both parcels access on 39th. Each lot is presently
over one acre and the proposed subdivision would allow equal lot
sizes being over one acre. This recommendation is subject to the
stipulation that no access road or entrance be granted on Ideal
Avenue and that a drainage easement along the southerly line of
existing Lot 27 be granted to the Village if the Village Engineer
deems it necessary. It is further recommended that Mr. Anderson
