The administrator explained <br />that the Planning Commission has reviewed this and recommended <br />approval. The staff recommends approval according to the <br />recommendations of the Planning Commission which included <br />a 5 -foot utility easement. Anything that has to be deeded <br />is required of the subdivider. <br />MSP (Hodges - Pickar) to follow the recommendations of the <br />Planning Commission and approve the minor subdivision of <br />George Herda generally located at 8345 and 8335 Fairchild Ave. <br />4 ayes <br />PROPOSED REVISION OF SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS ORDINANCE. The <br />administrator stated that this was tabled at the last meeting. <br />The Council has now received proposed revisions of the original <br />draft, where in a minor subdivision a subdivider is now required <br />to have a surveyor's certificate with all of the information <br />that is on the preliminary plat. This change in the ordinance <br />still allows the Council the option anytime it deems appropriate <br />to acquire a subdivision to be platted. The staff feels <br />that this would expedite the subdivision process in those not <br />creating more than one additional lot or covering more <br />than two acres. They attorney has recommended that variances <br />to the ordinance be allowed. <br />MSP (Baumgartner- Hodges) that we approve the subdivision regulations <br />as presented with amendments in the memo from the administrator <br />to the Council of May 4, 1976. <br />Councilman Baumgartner stated that he felt that we should add <br />some variance stipulation. <br />Motion was amended to add a new subdivision to 42.15, that <br />subdivision to read: <br />Subdivision 2. Variance. The Council may grant a <br />variance of these subdivision regulations in any <br />particular case where the subdivider can show that <br />by reason of exceptional topography or other physical <br />conditions the strict compliance with these regu- <br />lations could cause an exceptional and undue <br />hardship on the enjoyment of a substantial property <br />right, provided such relief may be granted without <br />detriment to the public welfare and without impairing <br />the intent and purpose of this Chapter. <br />Subdivision 2 in the draft should be renumbered to Subdivision <br />3. In paragraph 1, the word "variance" should be added prior <br />to the word "exception ". Paragraph 3 should be amended to <br />include the word "variance ". <br />Amendment carried - 4 ayes <br />A vote on the main motion was requested. 4 ayes <br />
