Regular City Council Meeting Monday, September 12, 2016 Page 14 Mayor Roe opened and closed the public hearing at approximately 7:17 p.m. for the purpose of receiving public input on the above-referenced Victoria Street Pro- ject assessment; with no one appearing for or against. Etten moved, McGehee seconded, adoption of Resolution No. 11356 (Attachment A) entitled, “A Resolution Adopting and Confirming 2016 Assessments for City Project P-ST-SW-W-15-2: Victoria Street Reconstruction, between Larpenteur Avenue and County Road B.” Councilmember McGehee stated this is the second time since she has been on the Council where a road project created a problem for a homeowner because the ele- vation has been raised more than anticipated. She noted for homes with tuck- under garages, that can be a serious problem. Councilmember McGehee stated it looks like a nice road but she wanted to make Public Works aware of her concern and she was sorry the assessments are slightly higher than anticipated. Councilmember Etten stated the Public Works Department worked hard to lower the elevation, understanding there was concern, but ran into a series of constraints as outlined by the City Engineer including the need for extra depth for the water pipe insulation. He noted staff also worked to mitigate the problem on the en- trance of the driveway. Councilmember Etten thanked the Public Works Depart- ment for their work in that regard. Roll Call Ayes: Willmus, Laliberte, Etten, McGehee and Roe. Nays: None. b.Public Hearing to Approve/Deny a Renewal of a Minor Subdivision of 1926 Gluek Lane into Two Parcels Mayor Roe explained that unlike other subdivisions in the City of Roseville, mi- nor subdivisions into three or fewer lots go directly to the City Council for hear- ing rather than before the Planning Commission, which is the norm for most land use decisions. Senior Planner Bryan Lloyd briefly reviewed this request as detailed in the RCA dated September 12, 2016, and related attachments. He noted this is a revision of a request that came before the City Council a couple of months ago that was de- nied based on three findings, two being related to the existing storm water situa- tion in the area and concern for adding more impervious coverage through devel- opment of a new home on the subdivided parcel. The third finding related to the lot width requirements in the Subdivision and Zoning Codes. Mr. Lloyd present- ed the request and described how it mitigated the three findings previously cited for denial.
