., June 29, 1983 Tp: Jim Andre FROM: SUBJECT: Eioward Dahlgren Planning Office Hours - June 8, :�983 1) Westlund - 488-6705. Dean 6�estlund and his partner have an approved office development plan for the northwest corner of Lexington and Sandhurst (2201 North Lexington), for whicYi they recently got an extension from the Council. The building has 3,800 sq. ft., and they have someone who wants to buy 1,500 sq. ft. of it, so they were in to discuss the possibilities or dividing the ownership of the building. We showed them ways in which th�.t can be done, but suggested he may wish to proceed without division, th.en see how the rental goes. He really wants to keep the whole bui.lding, thus this would be tne ' best procedure. 2) McCarry - 4i38-6788. John P9cCarry is an attorney representing John Fr�derick Brown (deceased) regarding property at the southwest corner of Parker and Victoria. These lots were combined at one point, and the question is whether or not they can be divided and sold as originally platted. Each lot has 82.5 feet of frontage, with the total being 165 feet. We suggested he g��t a survey and check the title a�rangement.

Mr. Duddelston explained structural changes that have occurred on the property, including an addition with the garage that was approved in the previous shoreline zoning application. It appeared the slight changes proposed would rot require any additional review under the shoreline zoning ordinance. 4) Crosson - 633-5292. Bob Crosson operates Great Dane Commercial Trailers on a property which he purchased in 1976 at the northeast corner of Prior and County Road C. He proposed to put a small accessory garage on the property on the west side next to Prior Avenue, which forms the westerly boundary of the property. We explained that a variance would be required for this locatinn, due to the 40' setbacks required from public streets in areas between the structure and the public right-of-way. As we discussed this property further, it appeared there are a number of nonconforming con- siderations inherent in the existing development, particularly relating to location of p arking areas, and required green strips. Mr. Crosson indicated his desire to build a garage only if he could get permission, without going throuqh any Planning Commission and Council procedures. We ex�lained we do not have the ability to grant such request. He, therefore, concluded he did
