ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION — November 5, 2025 3 Planning Commission and as amended by the withdrawal of the portion of the application for the lot line adjustment: 1. The Applicant shall record the Minor Subdivision with Ramsey County and a copy shall be provided to the City within sixty (60) days of the City's approval. 2. Monument stakes shall be installed to demarcate the property lines for Property A, and Property B. Senior Planner Fransen reviewed the options available to the Planning Commission on this matter: 1. Recommend Approval with Conditions 2. Recommend Approval as Submitted 3. Recommend Denial 4. Table Chair Collins opened the floor to Commissioner comments. Commissioner Lindau explained he supported the request. Commissioner Jacobson stated there were four lots that have access to the easement. She asked if the City was required to provide public access. She anticipated it would be difficult to get a fire truck to these lots. Senior Planner Fransen reported these properties were serviced by an easement for the driveway. She noted the City was providing utilities and necessary access for the lots. Commissioner Bjorklund inquired if these four lots were served by natural gas, City sanitary sewer and water. Senior Planner Fransen deferred this question to the applicant. Commissioner Julius thanked staff for the detailed presentation and explained she supported the proposed request. Chair Collins indicated there were no changes to the structures which meant the non- conforming portions of the property would be grandfathered in. He noted the only changes that were being made to these lots were where the lot lines would be. Senior Planner Fransen reported this was the case, noting the subdivision code requires lots splits to be reviewed by Planning Commission in order to make a recommendation to the City Council. Chair Collins requested the applicant come forward at this time. Commissioner Bjorklund inquired if there were stakes around Parcel B. Dan Ashbach, 1580 Oak Avenue, noted Parcel B was staked.
