<br />ARDEN HILLS PLAN"lING COMMISSION - NOVEMBER 1,2000 <br /> <br />4 <br /> <br />Commissioncr Galatowitsch stated that a comer lot with two accesses can be attractive and might <br />be another instance where more than one access is allowed. Chair Erickson suggested that access <br />might be limited to one access pcr propcrty per public street. <br />Ms. Chaput stated that it would be inconsistent to allow two accesses on a property which abuts <br />two public streets, but not allow two accesses on an unusually wide lot.
