Mounds View City Council February 12, 2007 <br />Regular Meeting Page 4 <br />Council Member Mueller indicated that it appears on the Survey that Parcel B would be 90.5 feet • <br />wide by 177 feet deep and asked if that is consistent with other lots in the City. <br />Director Ericson indicated that there are a wide variety of lot sizes in the City. He then said that <br />this would be larger than some of the lots in the City, and this block has some of the larger lots. <br />Randy Heltzer said that if this zoning for the Church goes through, he would expect to come to <br />the City for a rezoning as well. <br />Mayor Marty indicated that his concern would be that Parcel A would not be compliant with 10 <br />feet of frontage on Eastwood Road, and it almost seems to him that this should be handled under <br />the major subdivision requirements. <br />Council Member Flaherty clarified that the issue with the power lines needs to be handled, and <br />then he said that he agreed that this is a major subdivision as it is being merged into a six plus <br />acre lot. <br />MOTION/SECOND: Stigney/Mueller. To Waive the Reading and Approve Resolution 7013, a <br />Resolution Denying a Minor Subdivision of 8184 Eastwood Road. <br />Council Member Stigney said that the argument to save the trees is needed, but does not hold <br />weight with him as he does not think that someone would buy the house and cut the trees down. • <br />He then said that he does not think it is necessary for the Church to keep the trees to sell this <br />property. <br />Director Ericson suggested rather than denying the Resolution that a separate Resolution of <br />denial that has been prepared be considered. <br />Council Member Mueller indicated that she would be hesitant to approve something where there <br />are outstanding issues with the adjacent residents. <br />Mayor Marty said that he does not think that it is reasonable to suggest that someone would cut <br />down the trees as their view would become the parking lot. He then said that he has received <br />calls and letters concerning the future development of the area and that concerns him. <br />Council Member Flaherty indicated that the reason there are Codes is to keep things uniform for <br />all residents and he does not support going against the Code to allow this. <br />Council Member Stigney agreed to use the substitute Resolution to deny. <br />Council Member Mueller asked what happens if the Church wants to come back for a <br />subdivision moving the line right down the middle. <br />• <br />
