1.Mr. Burgstahler, 7381 Old Mill Road – Request for Lot Split
Chair Hanson opened the public hearing at 6:35 p.m.
Mr. Burgstahler addressed the Commission and explained his request.
The Commission asked Staff to confirm the zoning of the property. Staff consulted the
zoning map and determined that the property is zoned R-1.
Chair Hanson explained that Mr. Burgstahler would need to request a rezone of the
property because the current request does not meet the R-1 requirements.
The Commission requested that Staff set up the public hearing on the rezone at the
Council level to avoid delays.
Motion by Commissioner Wilharber, seconded by Commissioner McLean to close
the public hearing. All in favor. Motion carried unanimously.

III. APPEARANCES
None.
IV. OLD BUSINESS
1.Mr. Joel Swenson – 7016 Brian Court – Shed Extension – Drainage/Utility
Easement
Mr. Swenson addressed the Commission and explained that his yard is very wet and he
would like an extension to move the shed or, if at all possible, permission to leave the
shed in its existing location within the drainage easement but move it to comply with the
setback requirements.
Mr. Wilharber indicated that the shed is in a good location in the yard and, if the water
were to get as high as the shed, the houses in the area would be flooded. He then said
that it is sometimes necessary to approve variances because not all situations fit the code
requirements.
The Commission discussed the situation with Mr. Swenson, including his drainage
problems alleged to have been caused by the neighbor, and determined that there is not a
way to allow the shed to remain in its present location.
Mr. Swenson indicated that, if the shed cannot remain where it is, he would like an
extension until the ground dries out or freezes to make moving the shed easier.
Motion by Chair Hanson, seconded by Commissioner Wilharber to recommend to
Council allowing an extension of time to move the shed to a proper location. All in
favor. Motion carried unanimously.
V. NEW BUSINESS
None.
VI. DISCUSSIONITEMS
1.Ordinance #4 – New Format (Next Month)
Staff indicated that Ordinance #4 would be discussed next month.
