2. Board of Adjustment Regular Meeting Minutes dated June 28, 1990. Motion carried. Voting Yes: Chairman Hendriksen, Commissioners Zimmerman, Bawden, Terry, Deemer and Thomd. Voting No: None. Absent: Commissioner LaDue. BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT BUSINESS Case #1: Rcql~¢St for ~ Variance from Street Frontage Requirements; Case of Mr. Daryl Pgterson. Mr. Daryl Peterson was present requesting a variance to frontage on a public street requirements in order to sell P.I.N. 10-32-25-44-0021 as a buildable lot. P.I.N. 10-32-25-44-0021 is a land- locked parcel and on June 26, 1990, City Council agreed to grant an easement across city owned P.I.N. 10-32-25-44-0009 to allow access onto a public street from 10-32-25-44-0021. The City Council selected this course of action versus selling P.I.N. 10-32-25-44-0009 to Mr. Daryl Peterson for consolidation with 10-32-25-44-0021 to insure retaining road right-of-way in the event 10-32-25-44-0021 is ever re-subdivided and developed. Mr. Daryl Peterson confirmed that 10-32-25-44-0021 was a land-locked parcel at the time he purchased it. Commissioner Deemer expressed concern that if the City retains ownership of 10-32-25-44-0009, the City would be obligated to upgrade that parcel to City standards to the benefit of that developer that might someday re-subdivide 10-32-25-44-0021. Chairman Hendriksen inquired as to why Mr. Peterson is not petitioning to upgrade 10-32-25-44- 0009 as a city street and construct a cul-de-sac to access the 10 acre parcel. Mr. Daryl Peterson replied that it would not economically feasible to construct a $12,000.00 street and cul-de-sac to access a parcel that can only service one buildable unit under current 4 in 40 density zoning. In addition, Mr. Peterson stated that he was prepared to purchase P.I.N. 10-32-25-44-0009 to consolidate with P.I.N. 10-32-25-44-0021. However, the City chose to retain ownership of it to provide for future right-of-way in the event 10-32-25-44-0021 is re-subdivided and developed at some point in the future. Commissioner Zimmerman noted that the City allowed continuous metes and bounds subdivisions in this area that resulted in the subject parcel being land-locked and he has no objection to granting a variance to street frontage requirements at this time. The Board proceeded to review the City Council meeting minutes dated June 26, 1990 in which the decision was made to not sell 10-32-25-44-0009 but rather grant an easement across it to access 10- 32-25-44-0021. Commissioner Deemer stated that the City should sell P.I.N. 10-32-25-44-0009 to Mr. Peterson in order for him to proceed with a minor subdivision to combine the two parcels. The benefits then are that the City is no longer responsible for providing road right-of-way in the future, the City would no longer hold liability on the property, and the City would also be entitled to gain some park dedication from the minor subdivision. Commissioner Deemer stated that under such a procedure, he would be in favor of granting a variance to street frontage requirements. The Board proceeded to review the proposed findings of fact.
