Counci hnember Kurak requested clarification on the access through Outlot A. Community Development Director Frolik replied it was the intent when Regency Pond was platted that access would be from Regency Pond and probably not from CR 56. Working through this plan with Mr. Schmidt and the county it was determined that the development to the east would be better served by a common access onto Ramsey Boulevard and ending the 148th stub into a permanent cul-de-sac. Councilmember Kurak questioned if there will be an access to CR 56 when this development takes place or at a later date. Ms. Frolik replied the access will occur when this development takes place. Motion by Councilmember Elvig, seconded by Councilmember Kurak, to adopt Resolution #04- 11-357 to grant final plat approval of Regency Pond 4th Addition contingent upon compliance with the City Staff. Review Letter dated November 19, 2004, a formalized access agreement regarding Outlot A, and the applicant entering into a Development Agreement with the City. Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Gamec, Councilmembers Elvig, Kurak, Cook, Pearson, Strommen, and Zimmerman. Voting No: None. Case #7: Request for Final Plat Approval of Rowe Addition; Case of John Rowe Community Development Director Frolik indicated the applicant is requesting final plat approval of a minor subdivision to plat a 2.5 acre homestead from a 40 acre parcel located at 6530 Green Valley Road. The property currently contains one home and the Green Valley Greenhouse operation. The purpose of the plat is to separate the uses and create a 2.5 acre lot for the homestead. The subdivision would facilitate Mr. Rowe's intention to sell the home independent of the business. City Code requires each lot to have a minimum of 200 feet of street frontage on a public road. Lot 1, Block 1, the existing homestead, is proposed to have 100 feet of frontage on Green Valley Road. Mr. Rowe applied for the variance. The purpose of the variance is that Mr. Rowe wants to provide the minimum amount of land necessary for the homestead. Because the home is situated so far south on the property, a lot 200 feet wide from the street to behind the home would exceed 2.5 acres. The Board of Adjustment granted the variance on October 7, 2004. The Planning Commission and staff recommend approval contingent upon compliance with City Staff Review Letter dated November 18, 2004. Motion by Councilmember Cook, seconded by Councilmember Pearson, to adopt Resolution #04-11-358 granting final plat approval to Rowe Addition contingent upon compliance with City Staff Review Letter dated November 18, 2004. Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Gamec, Councilmembers Cook, Pearson, Elvig, Kurak, Strommen, and Zimmerman. Voting No: None. City Council/November 23, 2004 Page 11 of 17
