City of Roseville Planning Commission Minutes May 11, 1994 The staff recommended: (1) vacation of the street easement, (2) subdivision of the 28,000 square foot lot into two separate lots, and (3) approval of an R2 duplex zoning on the lot adjacent to the RottlandlConcordia Meadows Planned Unit Development to allow a duplex to be constructed at this site. Member Sandstrom asked if the property to the east could be divided into a flag lot and expressed concern about such flag lots. Michael Falk responded that the code requires at least a 30 foot frontage on an existing road for a flag lot. He noted that the developer has no plans for a flag lot at this time. Jim Westby, 480 Lovell, stated that the Buddhist Temple prefers not to have a street but would prefer more greenery in the area. Westby does not plan another house behind the existing house and therefore no flag lot would be proposed. Chairman Wietecki asked for comments from the public. There were none. Chairman Wietecki read letters from Mr. and Mrs. Hernandez, 2360 Cohansey, who are opposed to the rezoning, and a letter from the Concordia Meadows Home Owners' Association, who are in support of the project. Chairman Wietecki closed the public hearing. Member Harms asked if there was some way to restrict access to the rear of the Westby lot. Member Thomas asked about the need for easement. She expressed concern about the green space to the east of Concordia, which was to be used as a buffer between the single-family areas east of Concordia, and the villas themselves. She stated that to change one of the single-family lots into a duplex would be a change in the concept approved by and with the neighborhood at the time Concordia was approved. Chairman Wietecki stated that he agreed with Member Thomas and would oppose a zoning change to R2. 8
