RE~UES.T ORD. 78-.14 ORD. 78....15 RESOLUTION 78~19 LPW GRANT AUDIT "on -,Q lr Sept. 18, 1978 page 3 Mr. Jerry Gallagher stated this about his road: "Where the road crosses our property diagonally, up to where'before the sewer went through, it was a miserable road. The bank cut right straight off. When the sewer and water went through there, I allowed them to taper that bank off and ,widen it a little bit. It's for my benefit too, I can mow it easier. It's been improved 100%." A number of residents, along with Mr. Tom McCarthy and Mr. Gallagher were present concerning this. After a lengthy discussion, action was taken by the Council. Motion was made by Bissonett to authorize the City Manager and City Attorney to work with the City Staff and residents of this area to draw up a framework in which a total agreement of this neighborhood would come together and show how it could be replatted for the benefit of everybody in the neighborhood, seconded by Watkins and upon a vote taken it was duly passed. Motion was made by Hafermann to table the gambling ordinance 78-14 until a future date, seconded by Bissonett and upon a vote taken it was duly passed. Motion was made by Bissonett to table the hunting ordinance 78-15 until a future date, seconded by Hafermann and upon a vote taken it was duly passed.

Before I bought the property at 16163 Northwood Road (December 15th, 1977), I was told by a City Official I could split the lot as it met all the conditions for doing so. My sole intention was to improve the present house. split the lot, sell the present house, and build on the newly created lot. 2. Lot Description: a. The lot has approximately 21,000 sq. ft. (after dividing the lot - each new lot would have over 10,000 sq. ft.). b. The lot has a permanent easement giving access to a new lot. (With each lot having 10,000 sq. ft., the lots are divided exactly where the easement is situated) c. The easement (between the house and the lake) as it sits now is a potential safety hazard for persons crossing into the paths of oncoming cars. By splitting the lot and creating another residence on the opposite side of the easement, it will create a natural barrier and prevent children or otherwise from getting injured. d. The location of the present house is situated so that most people don't consider it as being on the lake. e. The view from the present house would not be obstructed from building another house closer to the lake. f. The location of the area Fire Hydrant (near the easement) lends itself to the fact that the easement will have to be in proper order and maintained at all times. The location of this hydrant creates a potential safety hazard unless the easement (access route to hydrant) is properly maintained by as many residents on the ease- ment as possible. g. Because of the topography and terrain of the 1/2 of the present lot (the half which would be developed) the property is seldom maintained, never mowed, and always full of weeds. By building a house on this part of the property, it would improve the appearance of this property tremendously. The situation is similar for all the other lots in this neighborhood divided by the same easement. The lots are extremely long and one half the lots are seldom maintained. h. Two sewer lines have been put in with connections, one for the present house and one for the new house. 3. Assessments & Tax Advantages: a. The present sewer assessment for 16163 Northwood is $4,700.00. The assessment would double by splitting the lot. As this is the same for the other lots on this same easement, the city could potentially pick up another $45,000.00 in assessments on work that has already been completed by the city at their expense. b. In a matter of monthS, I put $12,000.00 into remodeling the present house. Taxes can now be levied against a tremendously improved house and (by splitting the lot) against an additional valuable property. Refer to letter from previous owners with regard to remodeling improvements. 4. June 12th. 1978 I was told again by the City that the lot could be divided prOVided a new survey was taken. At the expense of another $400.00, a survey was completed on June 17th, 1978. At approximately 4:30 P.M. that same day, 1 was told by the same city official that I will now have trouble splitting the lot. 5. I have a buyer for the present house. The new owners care only for the lake views and not lake access. Pag.e 2 j ,::! il'hl~ Cel"'t'H"LC$ the'l:: T""QAU t...
