Commissioner Threinen questioned whether the original Registered. Land Survey included'
the dedicated right-of-way for 30th Place. If not, he asked if the City would be
required to proceed with formal vacation procedures for the roadway. Staff, indicated
that it appeared as though the right-of-way for the street had been deeded to the. City
at one time and that i`t would, indeed, be necessary to have the right-of-way vacated'.
Commissioner Threinen questioned if the soils of Lot 1, Block 2 would allow the lot to
be built upon. It was pointed out that soil tests had not been taken on the property
as yet.
Commissioner Threinen. asked. if it would be possible, via the development contract,
to insure that the topography of Block l would be unaltered to the greatest extent
possible. Staff indicated that the grading plan of the final plat stage would be
used as a measure of this in tide future and that it could be reaffirmed via the
development contract, Commissi'aner Thrienen suggested that perhaps the contract
could ind;cate that no. fill be taken from the north portion of the property to be
used on the south portion. of the properky.

oT L Lane and the manner in which it may affect his driveway access to Larch Lane.

class of street intended to, carry only residential traffic whereas the future
County Road. 15 aligned along the southerly edge of this properly, would become a
collector status thoroughfare at some point its time,
i
Commissioner Schneider asked if it was the intent of the petitioner to place the
building on top ,of the sewer line and, if so, why.
George Klein, architect for petitioner, indicated that the building was located overtKe`ve-
werr'[
ne and that it had been intentional. He ,Mated that the firm had
considered the matter carefully and felt that the best altemiative for their needs
was to place the building over the easement. Mr. Klein added that it was difficult
to place the .building elsewhere on the site due to the easements required for other
uses (drainage and utilities) and the roadways, as well as their desire to retain
as much of the site as possible in a natural state at this time.
Commissioner Erickson questioned what protective measures werebeing employed for
this alternative of placing the building over the pipe. Leif Erickson, representing
petitioner, indicated the protective measures planned for that -purpose..

when they would begin the County, Road 15 re-routing project, nor did the City have the
project scheduled with.in their five-year Capital Improvements Program. As to the
impact on the residential area, Staff indicated that it had always been the intent
that the "old" County Road 15 would be a residential :routing wtii'le "new" County Road
15 -would be a collector status thoroughfare, designed to carry a greater amount of
traffic.

in such a manner as to have so many parcels accessing the lake. He noted that the
park property that would be open to the public was adjacent to the lots that Would
be odd -,shaped by this action and that he felt there was notadequate reason for adding
arms" to the lots in order to have private access to thelake.

would be interested in ,purchasing only half of a duplex, not renting out the other
portion, Mr. Grant Indicated that they had "common wall agreements" which altowed for
this type -of —arrangement between two property owners.
