Minutes of the Arden Hills Regular Council Meeting, 12-10-90 Page 6 ~E #90-17 (COnt'd) The Planner stated the request involves two properties, one fronting on Nursery Hills Court and the other on Dellwood street. He explained there is a residence on the lot which fronts on . Nursery Hill Court and the other parcel is vacant. Bergly described the wetlands on the property, one along the west lot line of parcel A and one along the east lot line of parcel B, and noted neither of the wetland areas impact the b..rilding envelope on the vacant lot. Bergly explained the proposed division of the parcels and stated both lots will meet area and dimensional requirements in the R-l District. He stated that the unusual =nfiguration of the parcels is irrelevant, since the proposed division line along the westerly border of parcel A an:! the rear portion of parcel B are located within a wetland area which prohibits development. Planner Bergly advised the Planning Commission recommended approval of the request, based on the findings an:! subject to conditions listed in the 12-5-90 report. councilmeI11ber Mahowald questioned if there is any development scheduled for the parcel on the corner of Nursery Hill Court an:! Dellwood street. Bergly stated there is =ently a residence on the parcel. There was discussion relative to the other parcel shown on the certificate of survey which is =ently vacant, an:! access to the parcel. Marcel Eibensteiner, applicant, stated the vacant lot has access from an easement and also has utilities installed. He explained the basis for subdividing at this . time is to prohibit further development on the rear portion of parcel B. Mahowald moved, seconded by Malone, to approve Case #90-17, Minor SUbdivision of IDt 2, Block 2, Karth lake West, and the remaining portion of IDt 2, Barstad Addition, subject to: 1. Granting of easements along the new property lines an:! a=oss the westerly wetland, as may be required by the City Engineeri 2. Vacating of unnecessary easements along the existing rear lot line of IDt 2, Block 2, Karth lake Westi an:! 3. Approval of the final certificate of survey by the City Attorney. Motion carried unaniJrously. (3-0) WATER DISI'R. council was refe.n-ed to a memorandum from the Clerk S'lsrfM IDSS Administrator dated 12-3-90 an:! report from Engineer REPORI' Maurer dated 11-20-90, relative to Water Distribution System IDsses. CouncilmeI11ber Malone extended appreciation to Engineer Maurer for the ethical response to the "bounty" =ncept offer from the city. He suggested the report from Engineer Maurer be accepted an:! recommended the Public Works Department begin a review of the major water system users an:! meters to certify their a=acy. He questioned if a cost est:i1nate for certifying meters is available. Public Works SUperintendent Winkel reported an est:i1nate for the certification cost at $125.00 per meteri if six or !lOre meters are certified, the cost may be reduced to $100.00 per meter. He explained the options for beginnin:] the certification process are being reviewed, since some of the master meters do not . have a bypass feature and it may be feasible to begin a replacement program in =njunction with the certification.
