The oath of office was administered to Brian Olson who was appointed to the Planning Commission by the City Council to serve a four year term to expire December 31, 1995. He will also be serving at the November and December meetings of 1991. At the request of Mr. Gerald Papenheim of 2472 Taylor Ave., White Bear Lake, Minnesota, the Planning Commission has agreed to table this request until January 22, 1992. Commissioner Mezzano reviewed this request with the Planning Commission. Mr. Mezzano stated that Arnie and Elvira Gruett of 12433 Ingersoll Ave. No., have made application to the City of Hugo for a minor subdivision and waiver of the formal platting requirements. The property in question is described as, that part of Gov't Lot 3, Section 5, T31N, R21W, Washington County, Minnesota, lying northerly of the center line of County State Aid Highway No. 7. The property consists of 12.89 acres and is currently zoned RR2. It is Mr. Gruett's intent to subdivide the parcel into two lots, one consisting of approximately 7.89 acres and one of 5 acres. The required permit from Rice Creek Watershed District has been secured and a copy was provided. The soil tests submitted have been reviewed by the Washington County Public Health Dept. and they have indicated that the site is suitable for the installation of an individual sewage treatment system, pursuant to city code. If the planning commission feels that this request is consistent with the comprehensive plan and other development in the area adjacent to the property in question, we would recommend subdivision approval subject to special conditions. Mr. Gruett was present and stated that the driveway would be located on Irish Ave. After a brief discussion the Planning Commission concurred that this request was consistent with the comprehensive plan and the surrounding area. Motion made by Mezzano, seconded by Davis to recommend approval of the request of Arnie and Elvira Gruett to subdivide 12.89 acres (93035-0405 & 0500) into two parcels as described above and waive the formal platting requirements subject to the following special conditions.
