~.__~: Request for Metes and Bounds Subdivision; Case of Mr. Lance Mr. Lindberg was present and explained that he was a realtor representing a client. The client is requesting a metes and bounds subdivision of the 16 acres south of County Road 63 east of Variolite Street N.W. Mr. Lindberg stated that he would like to subdivide the property into 2 8 acres parcels or 2 5 acre parcels and 1 6 acre parcel, depending on the Commission's recommendation. The Commission discussed the property and noted that access would be needed from County Road 63. The Commission agreed by consensus that Mr. Lindberg should return to the Planning Commission with a sketch plan for a metes and bounds subdivision of the property into 2 lots, with a common outlet for the property on to County Road 63, and with additional right-of-way for the future expansion of County Road 63. The Commission also noted that due to the gasline easement, it may not be possible to have two similary sized lots; although Mr. Lindberg may not have a lot of less than 2-1/2 acres. Commissioner Hendriksen inquired as to the process for Park Commission review of metes and bounds subdivisions. Case #3: Request for Concept Review of Subdivision Pla~; Case of Mr. Ar~ Commissioner Deemer noted that he used to have a financial interest in the subject property. Mr. Raudio was present and stated that he was seeking assistance from the Planning Commission in subdividing land along 149th Lane. The property is located in the urban area and includes much low land; Mr. Raudio is considering a minor subdivision of the property on the south into 3 parcels of 5 acres or greater each. Commissioner Deemer commented that there was adequate fill on the property on the north side of 149th Lane to create three buildable lots on the south side of 149th Lane. Mr. Raudio noted that any required fill would have to come from that property. Commissioner Zimmerman noted that because of the marginal soils in that area larger lots should be required and that he would like to see current soil borings from the property. Commissioner Zimmerman also noted that there are no outlets for water on that property. The Commission discussed past proposals for the property, whether more lots filled would be better versus fewer lots with the existing soils, and that 149th Lane needs upgrading which would be required of amy developer of that property. Mr. Raudio and the Commission agreed that Mr. Raudio and Commissioner Deemer would review the property and proposals and report back to the Planning C ommis s ion.
