Art Dunn stated that 167th is a controlled access road and that Mr. Looyen should contact the County on obtaining access onto County Road 5. Also that he could resubmit a revised sketch plan after having the land checked for suitability of the soil~ for building sites. The soil is very poor on this property, the Council Wants the road easement and he feels the best use of this land would be a hobby farm based on the soils. MOTION by Ben Deemer, seconded by Ron West that Mr. Looyen go to the City Council with an Alternate A and Alternate B plan, and discuss the matter with them for some other suggestions before proceeding with the preliminary plat. Motion carried. 4 - 1. Art Dunn was opposed because he thinks it should be kept as one parcel due t° the soil conditions. MR ALBERT SWEN, REGARDING A.~CESS FOR A LAND LOCKED PARCEL Mr. Albert Swen, 8245 173rd ,Avenue N.W., appeared before the Commission stating he owns two separate 40 acre parcels. The 40 acre parcel which Mr. Swen lives on has road frontage oh County Road 63 and the other 40 acre parcel is situated behind this 40 to the North. He wants to sell the landlocked 40 acre parcel and is seeking information as to how he should proceed to obtain access for the parcel. P & Z Commission informed Mr. Swen that the parcel would have to have 300 feet of frontage on a dedicated street or that he could possibly use the outlot road on either the east or West side of the 40 acre parcel but that he would have to contact the owner of the developments to work out an arrangement for using the road and also investigate the suitablity as far as the soils, etc., of bhilding the outlot road Ko standards. The Commission suggested also that he split the property in half north and south in some fashion so as to meet the 300 foot road frontage requirement. COMMISSION INPUT Chairman Peterson said that Dexter Marston wanted to know the Commission's feelings on commercial zoning on the south side of Highway 10 east of the weigh station. Art Dunn said it should be the same as Riverside West, a strip of residential along the river, the remain'lng land commercial. Chairman Peterson said that a Finding of Fact is needed on in regard to 2~ acre minimum lot sizes versus ten as the Metro Council suggested and that Dexter Marston would like P & Z to indicate some of the needs and concerns so that he can address some of this in the plan.
