June 28, 1976 Page 5 <br />Councilman Hodges stated that he looked at the property twice and the <br />only thing is the precedent set by the Johnson property. Looking <br />at this he feels there is a hardship, and grant the split at 195 feet. <br />Mayor Johnson asked who owns Outlot A and Mr. Anderson replied that it <br />is owned by Mrs. Nelson, the excess porftion is owned by her son. <br />She will deed that parcel to her son to create equal lots. They will <br />be willing to consent that this would be shown on the final plat. <br />Mayor Johnson stated that what you are talking about is that if we <br />approve the preliminary plat with the modification that that would also <br />be platted, is acceptable to you. He replied that that is right. <br />Ms. Haake explained some of the thought the Commission had when they <br />divided the Johnson property. Mr. Johnson's property is the 3rd <br />largest parcel and he does have a curve to consider. When he came in <br />in May of 1975 it was before we established the policy of equal lot <br />splits. He had a garage back there and we knew we could not ask him <br />to take that out. He asked for a lot split behind the garage so that <br />he could save it. He came back and asked for a major subdivision. <br />Mr. Moscow came in and asked for a lot split, the Planning Commission <br />was adherring to their ruling then, and he accepted it. Then we have <br />Mrs. Nelson wanting to save the shed and the garden, when she has <br />another shed and a garage. It could happen here as it has in <br />Minneapolis; it is going to be difficult to adhere to equal lot <br />splits with the rest of the community if this is granted. <br />Mr. Anderson stated that the Herman property is what is immediately <br />adjacent to the Johnson property, not the Moscow. Secondly, the <br />reasons why Mr. Johnson was given 195 feet may explain why the exception <br />to general policy was made in his case, but does not provide a basis <br />for rejecting this request. The structure that Mrs. Nelson will lose <br />is on a photograph (this was passed to everyone). Since the Johnson <br />request was allowed the other two should be allowed, also. The jogs <br />will defy the very policy that the Planning Commission sought to <br />enforce. Mr. Moscow has already advised Mrs. Nelson and Mr. Herman <br />of his intention to move. He would not have done it but for the fact <br />that he is moving and he did not want to get into the fight. <br />In summary, if they are not granted the subdivision request they will <br />lose an additional 40 feet of their property. Mrs. Nelson wants to <br />retain her garden and her shed, Mr. Herman wants to retain his garden <br />and tool shed, both of them do not want to give up that large additional <br />piece of property. They are forced to subdivide because of the <br />assessments from Greenwood Drive, their choice was dictated by the 195 ft <br />request of the Johnson property. <br />MS (Johnson - Baumgartner) to amend the motion: that the preliminary <br />plat be approved subject to including the exception for the Outlot A <br />which is described on Exhibit A dated April 6, 1976, and also that <br />the exception for Outlot A be incorporated as Lot 6 in the final <br />plat for Greenwood Terrace and current Lot 6 will be Lot 7, and that <br />the new Lot 6 lot lines will line up with Lots 2 & 3 and with new <br />Lots 6 & 7 and that-the utility easement for proposed Lot 6 be <br />stipulated at 30 feet, and that the other easements will be as described <br />on the preliminary plat and the 10 foot utility drainage easement <br />will be abandoned at cross Lots 1 -4. <br />
