It was noted that the property owners, Kevin Mullins and Father Richard Wolter, St. Genevieve's Church, have petitioned for vacation of the west end of Sorel Street. Mr. Lloyd Hansen, potential buyer of the Kevin Mullins property, was present. Mr. Hansen noted the Church of St. Genevieve and the Mullins property would split the 50 foot street right -of -way. Mr. Hansen noted Mr. Mullins petitioned for the vacation at his request. Mr. Hansen would like to split the lot after the purchase agreement is final. Mr. Hansen appeared before the Planning and Zoning Commission at their September 7, 1993 meeting regarding the proposed lot split. Mr. Hansen presented a sketch plan of the proposed split and it was noted that the front footage (lake side) does not meet the 100 foot minimum width requirements. Mr. Hansen noted that if the street is vacated he would still require a variance for the front footage, but no other variances would be necessary. A copy of Lloyd Hansen's sketch plan and proposed lot split is on file with the City. Chairperson Tourville questioned Mr. Hansen about the shared driveway. Mr. Hansen noted a permanent easement would be recorded with the property. The Planning and Zoning Commission asked Mr. Hansen if he is aware of the potential drainage problem that may exist with this property.
