MAY 16, 1994 The purpose of this item is to consider the refund of subdivision, rezoning and minor comprehensive plan amendment fees for Wensmann Realty. The specific fees are as follows: 1. $206.00 rezoning application fee. 2. $200.00 subdivision application fee. 3. $500.00 comprehensive plan application fee. Total $906.00 ------- ------- The applicant submitted the plat of "Fremont Acres" to the City in April, 1994. The proposal was a six lot, single family subdivision on approximately 2 acres of land located southwest of the intersection of County Road 82 and Fremont Avenue. Following the staff DRC review meeting, the Developer withdrew the applications. Staff contacted the Developer and suggested that a letter be submitted to the City Council requesting refund of unused portions of the application fees. The Development Review Committee held a meeting with the Developer on April 21, 1994. The DRC reviewed preliminary comments related to the various applications and results of the Technical Evaluation Panel review of the proposed wetland mitigation plan. Following the meeting, Developer, Herb Wensmann, instructed staff that he wished to withdraw the applications at this time. Mr. Wensmann owns the 2 acre site and has a contract for the adjacent approximately 40 acres to the west. However, the 40 acres is not located within the Urban Service Area and therefore cannot be developed at this time. It was the consensus of the DRC and the Developer that it would be best to wait to develop the 2 acre site until the entire property is brought within the Urban Service Area. Staff conducted a preliminary review of the applications only. No notifications or staff reports to the Planning Commission and/or City Council were prepared or mailed out to the publiC nor government jurisdictions. The applications have been withdrawn by the applicant and no further work will be conducted. 1. 2. Approve the $906.00 refund of application fees as requested.
