Willmus moved, McGehee seconded, DENIAL of the proposed EASEMENT VACATION for the property at 297-311 County Road. Roll Call Ayes: McGehee; Willmus; Laliberte; Etten; and Roe. Nays: None. Mr. Lloyd displayed a Preliminary Plat prepared and submitted by the applicant for compliance with LDR-1. Mayor Roe sought clarification on whether or not the applicant was required to submit an entirely new application and pursue the approval process. Mr. Lloyd advised that staff took the directive for LDR-1 zoning consideration and code provisions to interpret this as a minor change to the plans in the platting process and plans already approved in their final staff. Mr. Lloyd further advised that staff understood that increase of the lots from 70' as proposed under LDR-2 zoning to 85' lots under the existing LDR-1 to be among those minor changes provided in either of those places; and therefore not requiring a new Public Hear- ing as the new application was determined to be consistent with the application al- ready reviewed by the Planning Commission. City Attorney Gaughan, referencing the staff report, opined that, lacking engi- neering details regarding the revisions or whether those are required under City Code for a Preliminary Plat application, he would deem the application incom- plete at this time. City Manager Trudgeon concurred that only minor revisions to lot lines were in- dicated, but since revised engineering and/or grading plans had not been submit- ted, while probably straightforward, he recommended that those documents be submitted in full as part of the due diligence as set out in City Ordinance. At the request of Mayor Roe as to whether this item needed to return to the Plan- ning Commission, City Manager Trudgeon advised that, if the City Council agreed with staff that they were minor changes, the Preliminary and Final Plat could be presented directly to the City Council for approval without returning for a Public Hearing at the Planning Commission level, especially since both had been addressed in-depth to-date.
