Mounds View City Council September 26, 2005 Regular Meeting Page 10 • A es-5 Na s-0 Motion carried. Y Y Fire Chief Zikmund thanked the Council for this action and advised that this matter will go to the Spring Lake Park Council next week and Blaine City Council on October 6. He invited all to attend the ceremonial ground breaking on October 11 at 5 p.m. Fire Chief Zikmund reported that the Blaine City Council did approve the bid for the purchase of two fire engines and awarded the contract to General Safety Equipment. Staff will probably take both engines since they will include some additional features if both are ordered. On the EMAC request, Fire Chief Zikmund advised that staff continues to be in stand down mode and no further action has been requested. Mayor Marty asked the Fire Chief to pass on the City's appreciation to the Fire Department for their work after the storm. Fire Chief Zikmund reported the Fire Department had responded to 70 calls during that 14 hour period or 15% of their total volume. The only serious call was a structure collapse but the state patrol officer who lived in that area had already rescued the lady. D. Consideration of Resolution 6636, a Resolution Approving a Minor • Subdivision of 7851 Spring Lake Road Community Development Director Ericson explained that Donald Olson has requested approval to subdivide his lot located at 7851 Spring Lake Road. As proposed, the subdivision would split off the rear 255 feet of 7851 Spring Lake Road, creating aland-locked lot. Mr. Olson resides at 2933 Oakwood Drive, directly south of the proposed new lot, and would like the new lot added to his Oakwood Drive parcel to provide more backyard space. Director Ericson noted the proposed subdivision is in the form of a Registered Land Survey. In this case, there are four tracts of land created by the subdivision. Tract A runs the length of 7851 Spring Lake Road and ranges in width from 7 feet to 16 feet. It would be deeded to the owner to the north at 7865 Spring Lake Road. That will correct a 16 foot discrepancy between the plated lines of the subdivision and where the monuments are located. Tract B is an eight foot wide strip along the front of 7851 Spring Lake Road. This would be deeded to the City as Spring Lake Road right-of--way. Tract C is the improved remainder of that lot while Tract D would be the back of the lot, to be added to 2933 Oakwood Drive where Mr. Olson has his home. Director Ericson advised this property was reviewed by the Planning Commission and it found the remaining lot satisfies all regulations. Tract D would satisfy all requirements if fronting right-of--way but it does not front full right-of--way so the City is requesting a deed restriction be added that would indicate "Tract D does not constitute an independent buildable lot and shall not • be developed for any purpose other than typical accessory uses implied or expressly permitted by the Mounds View Zoning Code." He advised that the City Attorney's office has reviewed this
