Mr. Payne stated that the extension of Knollwood is not pertinent to his subdivision. Mayor Pickar stated that the Council does not normally create a landlocked lot. Mr. Payne stated that Lot 1 in the plat would extend all the way to Knollwood and the other lots could extend in the same way. Mr. Payne then reviewed the proposed plat for the Council. Councilmember Baumgartner stated the City would probably run into the problem where they will be pressured into splitting the lots later. Mr. Payne stated that the Council had created landlocked lots before and that is why the roads started going in. Admin. Achen stated that the Council did not want to be in the position of putting in roads when the property owners do not want them. He also stated that the Planning Commission suggested that Mr. Payne combine with Mr. Sohm's property to make three lots. This allows three 80 foot lots instead of one 100 foot and two 70 foot lots. Councilmember Shelquist stated that this matter would probably not have to go back to the Planning Commission since they did take action at their September 22nd meeting. Admin. Achen reviewed these minutes in which they recommend approval of the preliminary plat with the stipulation that the Sohm property be included and a 30 foot easement be given from the Payne property. Councilmember Baumgartner suggested the Council give approval of the preliminary plat with these conditions and make three longer lots rather than five lots. Councilmember Rowley stated she would suggest the three longer lots but the report on the Knollwood extension suggested the road be moved 10 feet to the east, so they would now need to give a 40 foot easement. Councilmembers Shelquist and Hodges agreed. At 9:50 p.m. Mayor Pickar closed the public hearing and called to order the regular council meeting.

There will also be a 40 foot easement on the west edge of the Sohm and Payne property. Mrs. Garnet Nelson, 8310 Long Lake Road, stated she would like her final plat approved. Admin.
