VERN PELOQUIN - MINOR SUBDIVISION
Mr. Atkinson had previously obtained a Site Plan for construction in
the Peloquin Industrial Park. However, a Minor Subdivision had never
been obtained. Peloquin stated that an updated subdivision for the park
is being worked on.

MARDON HOMES - SUBDIVISION
Mr. Tramm presented the Commission with his new concept for the preliminary
plan. The red markings indicate the new plan made by their surveyor, and
the green markings were supplied by Howard Kuusisto. McAllister stated
that the driveways were essentially the same as the previously submitted
plans. McAllister asked if a drainage plan has been submitted, and Tramm
answeredno, and that he was just looking for approval of the concept. Mr.
Tramm is to provide the Commission with copies of perc tests that are not
on file. McAllister said that the new concept had new lot lines and will
change the location of the septic system, but each lot will still have an
acceptable site. Ehret stated that the Council had requested the possibi-
lity of reviewing a different access to the land. Tramm stated that this
had not been done. Peloquin said that the only alternative was a road
west of the Van Beek house, and would be an unsafe location.

Mardon Homes - Sub (cont.)
McAllister suggested that the Commission obtain the septic system stan-
dards from Rice Creek seeing as they have to approve each site. Gillen
thought that the Commission should send them more specifics on each lot
along with a contour map. Greger inquired what was going to be done with
Outlot A. He felt that it should be attached with another lot or provi-
sions made for its sale. Koehler recommended that Outlot A be divided
between lots 4 & 5, or combined with one of the other lots. McAllister
restated that the roads would have to be blacktopped, and Mr. Tramm stated
that he was aware of it. McAllister felt that the new plan submitted
was actually a sketch plan and not a preliminary plan, and all the newly
added data should be transcribed onto a more clearly described plan.
MOTION: McAllister made motion, seconded by Greger, to recommend
approval of the preliminary plan for Mardon Homes, to
accept the location of the new road location on the preli-
minary plan (green lines) and the lot lines as changed.
The road is approved subject to any recommendations of the
City Engineer.
Koehler stated that there was no pere test on Lot 3, Block 1, and no soils
review from the Building Inspector. McAllister stated that there are now
10 lots instead of 9. Let the record show that Lot 3, Block 1, in the
newly submitted preliminary plan does not have a pert test nor soil boring.
VOTING FOR: Peloquin, Peliter, Gillen, Greger, McAllister and Ehret
Motion Carried.
Let the record show that the Planning Commission would like to see a
satisfactory disposal of Outlot A in the form of attachment to some other
property prior to any plan approval.
NEIL EGGEN - SPECIAL USE PERMIT
Cancelled
GERALD DABS - SUBDIVISION
Mr. Dabe submitted his new application for a Major Subdivision along with
fee of $20.00. The $40.00 applied to his application for a Minor Subdivi-
sion was credited to the new application. Mr. Charles Weber, adjoining
property owner, was present, and stated that at the time he purchased his
land, he was not aware of a public road, and it was constructed without
his permission. Mr. Dabe stated that Mrs. Perreault had given him a 60'
easement for the construction of a road to his property, and this was
included on his warranty deed. Mr. Weber said that he is puchasing dairy
cattle, and his land is now divided by a road. Ehret said that the ease-
ment was a matter of public record, and he should have been aware of such.
MOTION: McAllister made motion, seconded by Peltier, to set a
public hearing for January 10, 1979, at 7:30 PM, to consider
the request of Gerald Dabe to divide 40 acres into one 20
acre parcel and 2 - 10 acre parcels.
All aye. Motion Carried.

Motion made by McAllister, seconded by Peltier, to add Mr. Bob Olsen to
the agenda.
All aye. Motion Carried
Mr. Olson has purchased land previously owned by Joe Massa and Mr. Gallon.
Mr. Massa had requested permission to sell this same piece of property
from the city. He was instructed to obtain a new certificate of survey
and present a pert test. This information was never submitted by Massa.
Mr. Olsen's intention was to construct a home on Gallon's property and
a home on Massa's land. Peloquin said that he would have to say no to
two houses, and Greger would like to see the two lots combined with one
house. Ehret thought that Mr. Olsen should incorporate the Gallon and
Massa lots into one deed. Mr. Olsen was instructed to fill out an appli-
cation for a variance for a substandard lot and for setback requirements.
Mr. Olsen will be placed on the agenda for December 27, 1978, and at that
time submit a site plan indicating the size of lot, the size of house
and placement on the land, and the setbacks, Greger will notify the
neighbors of the apppplication for variance.
