THE CENTER OF LAKE COUNTRY CITY OF PRIOR LAKE, MINNESOTA 55372 PRIOR LAKE PLANNING ADVISORY COMMISSION August 4, 1977 The meeting of the August 4, 1977 Prior Lake Planning Advisory Commission was called to order at 7:35 by Chairman Thorkelson. Members present were: Commissioners Houts, Hafermann, Cavill, Councilman Busse, City Planner Tooker and Planner Graser. The minutes of the ,July 21, 1977 meeting were motioned for approval by Commissioner Hafermann seconded by Houts and upon a vote taken minutes were approved as published. First item on the agenda was a variant^ request for Gary Bailey. Mr. Bailey is asking for a 20 foot front yard variance for Lot 9, Prior Wood. The subject parcel is a 105 foot by 227 foot corner lot located northwest of intersection Kent Street and Sycamore Trail. The parcel is approximately .5 acres and is zoned R -1. The home to the west has the garage about 37 feet from the subject parcel. When Prior Wood was platted, part of the parcel was dedicated as cul- de -sac. When the property to the east developed, Kent Street continued through to intersect with Sycamore Trail leaving the half cul -de -sac virtually useless. Planner Graser suggested that the owners vacate the property. Motion was made by Hafermann to grant the variance with the recommendation that vacation proceedings be initiated as soon as possible seconded by Cavill and upon a vote taken motion duly passed. Second item on the agenda was a subdivision hearing for Mr. Rollie Tbieling. Mr. Thieling is requesting to rezone from R -1 to R -2 lots 16, 17 and the southerl 60 feet of lot 13 of Grainwood Addition. Motion was made by Hafermann to approve the request for rezoning from R -1 to R -2 seconded by Houts and upon a vote taken, motion duly passed. Cavill voted against the motion. Charles Tooker then explained the worksheet and division of work for the comprehensive plan. Motion was made by Houts to endorse the work plan rec- ommending it to the City Council, seconded by Cavill and upon a vote taken, motion duly passed. Next item on the agenda was a subdivision hearing for Frank Wicker. The discussion consisted mainly on access and egress to the plat. Chairman Thorkelson suggested that the adjoining property owners get together in the very near future to work out a feasible plan of access onto the property and the planning commission would approve preliminary plans. Motion was made by Houts to approve' the preliminary plat as submitted seconded by Thorkelson and upon a vote taken motion duly passed. Fext item on the agenda was Denny McWilliams continuance of a public hearing for Island View First Addition. After much discussion on the cul -de -sac, motion was made by Cavill to approve the cul -de -sac with the best possible curve - radius seconded by Houts and upon a vote taken, motion duly passed. THE CENTER OF LAKE COUNTRY Last item on the agenda was a variance request for Mr. Harry Hunt. Mr. Hunt is requesting a 12.5 foot front yard variance for Lot 7, Kopps Bay. Staff recommended that a garage be built side by side instead of in front. Mr. Hunt stated that he would like to keep the 3 maple trees if at all possible and feels that the garages placed in `ront of each other would be more aesthetically pleasing than a four car garage facing the road. Motion was made by Houts to deny the variance because there is adequate space to build adjacent to the existing garage seconded by Thorkelson and upon a vote taken motion duly passed. Thorkelson and Houts voted for the motion, Hafermann and Cavill voted against. Motion was made by Houts to adjourn, seconded by Cavill and upon a vote taken the meeting was adjourned at 10:00 P.M.
