Planning Commission Minutes Regular Meeting, September 4, 1963 7:40 p.m. to 11:05 p.m. Chairman Jonason called the meeting to order. Commissioners Grauel, Jonason, Lund, Membrez, Motl, Sigford and Soike were present. Councilman Schrenker, Engineer Hanson and Planner Dahlgren were also present. File No. 149 Bee-Dale, Inc. Application to rezone land from R-l to B-1 near Rice Street and Highway No. 36. Robert Gearin, attorney, advised that the applicant has an easement from Rice Street to the property which is 30 feet wide. Barney Schmig owns the adjacent property to the north and is interested in selling all his property and not just a portion of it. Dahlgren advised Mr. Gearin that the ordinance states that property which is served by a private driveway (in this instance 30 feet wide) would restrict the owner from selling any of the adjoining land until a street with a full width of 60 feet is dedicated. Mr. Gearin will determine if Bee-Dale, Inc. wants to proceed on that basis. Soike. moved, Grauel seconded, that the matter be continued at our next meeting.

Harold Shear, attorney, and Kermit Foss attended the meeting. Lot 6, Block 1, Hamm-Helsi Addition has 82 feet of frontage and a depth of 337 feet or a total area of 27,634 square feet. The duplex on the property was constructed in 1954. Myron Jenson, 978 Sherren Street and Clifford Lund had no objections to rezoning the lot. On file, we have a petition containing the names of 14 adjacent property owners who were in favor of the rezoning. Motl moved, Sigford seconded, that we recommend that the application for rezoning be denied on the basis that the legalizing of such a duplex would create a spot zoning in a single family residential district. Carried unanimously. File No. 155 - Michael R. Tschida, Bernard J. Tschida and Clifford Lund petition to vacate portions of Albermarle Street and alley north of Elmer Street. Clifford Lund attended the meeting. Motl moved, Sigford seconded, that the Secretary confer with Mr. Bell about the legal aspects concerning this petition in relation to the law suit and be prepared to give an oral report at the next meetin~. Carried unanimously. Secretary's note: It is the opinion of the Village Attorney that the Planning Commission should assume the position that the Village will be successful in winning the pending court case and that no apartment buildings will be built on the property. With this in mind, the members of the Planning Commission should determine whether or not the alley will serve a purpose.
