<br />meet the vision of what the City is looking at. Councilmember Cook suggested the applicant <br />look to Section 4 and apply under undue hardship exemptions. Community Development <br />Director Trudgeon explained this development has been tabled at the Planning Commission for <br />lack of information, and is scheduled for the May Planning Commission meeting, followed by <br />the May 9th City Council meeting. The 120 day timeframe is an issue and a determination will <br />need to be made at the May 9th Council meeting. Councilmember Elvig stated he appreciates <br />where Wild Oaks of Ramsey is coming from, but the Council cannot move forward with <br />anything on this development without information to consider. He stated some mistakes were <br />made and things came to light regarding the cluster ordinance. The Council has a sincere intent <br />to make a very good ordinance out of the cluster ordinance. They do not want to create the same <br />problems north of Trott Brook as there are south of Trott Brook. The cluster ordinance is the <br />right tool, but it has not been honed properly. Councilmember Cook stated the moratorium <br />includes an educational process. His phone number and email are on the City's web page, and <br />residents can contact him to discuss the ordinance. <br /> <br />A roll call vote was performed by the Recording Secretary: <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec: <br />Councilmember Cook: <br />Councilmember Elvig: <br />Councilmember Jeffrey: <br />Councilmember Olson: <br />Councilmember Pearson: <br />Councilmember Strommen: <br /> <br />aye <br />aye <br />aye <br />absent <br />aye <br />aye <br />aye <br /> <br />Motion carried. <br /> <br />Councilmember Elvig left the meeting at 8:55 p.m. <br /> <br />Case #5: <br /> <br />Request for Vacation of Easements in the Proposed Plat of Brookfield First <br />Addition; Case of Oakwood Land Development <br /> <br />Community Development Director Trudgeon stated the plat of Brookfield eliminates the need for <br />Marble Street N.W. and 16ih Avenue N.W., adjacent to Lot l, Block 1, Westby First Addition. <br />The plat of Brookfield also replats Lot l, Block 1, Westby First Addition and eliminates the need <br />for the standard drainage and utility easements along the property lines of that lot.

The City Council introduced the ordinance to <br />vacate the pertinent easements at the March 28, 2006 Council meeting.
