the variance was approved, as requested, that the land would be useable for the future <br />homeowner. <br />Commissioner VanScoy requested an additional finding be added to note that the buildable rear <br />yard lot area would be larger if the lot remained a minimum of 60' x 100' in size. <br />Motion by Commissioner VanScoy, seconded by Commissioner Surma, to adopt Resolution #16- <br />12-217 approving the favorable Findings of Fact with the following additions: <br />1. That a twenty-five (25) foot setback, if applied, would eliminate the encroachment, unlike <br />previous requests that have been denied. <br />2. That the shape of wetland boundary is fairly square and parallel to the house pad <br />compared to previous requests that have been denied, which maximizes developable area. <br />3. That the actual encroachment is much less than previous requests that have been denied. <br />4. That the lot is shown with a standard house pad and is not relying on a restricted size <br />house pad or a specific home model unlike past requests that have been denied. <br />5. That there is additional buildable area beyond the 60'x100' area. <br />Motion Carried. Voting Yes: Chairperson Bauer, Commissioners VanScoy, Surma, Anderson, <br />and Nosan. Voting No: Brauer: None. Absent: None. <br />Motion by Commissioner VanScoy, seconded by Commissioner Nosan, to adopt Resolution #16- <br />12-218 approving the variance to lot depth standards for Lot 2, Block 1 of Woodlands <br />4th addition. <br />Further discussion <br />Commissioner Brauer commented he did not support this variance request due to the fact it was <br />not unique and did not follow the City's criteria. <br />Motion Carried. Voting Yes: Chairperson Bauer, Commissioners VanScoy, Nosan, and Surma. <br />Voting No: Anderson and Brauer. Absent: None. <br />Motion by Commissioner VanScoy, seconded by Commissioner Surma, to recommend that City <br />Council adopt Resolution #16-12-219 approving the Preliminary Plat for Woodlands 4th Addition <br />subject to the City completing additional maintenance on the water lines to eliminate water <br />stagnation at the end of the water lines. <br />Further discussion <br />Commissioner Brauer did not support the Preliminary Plat as presented. <br />Planning Commission/December 1, 2016 <br />Page 7 of 14 <br />
