City Council Regular Meeting —10109106 DRAFT Minutes ' Page 12 power line easement; opining that lots in the area were large, and that proposed Parcel B was an unusually small lot, creating a negative visual impact on the neighborhood. Quentin Heckert, 3050 Woodbridge Street Mr. Heckert expressed his opposition to the proposal, speaking of lot sizes; the need to stop the process of increasing easements; and opined that this request as presented wasn't feasible and shouldn't be approved. Councilmember Kough sought additional information via a site plan. City Attorney Scott Anderson advised that it was not a requirement of the City's existing subdivision ordinance to provide a site plan. Leslie Studenski, 3055 Woodbridge Street Ms. Studenski opined that she was not opposed to the division if the lots were large enough, recognizing that property owners can use their property as they see fit. However, Ms. Studenski questioned how these property owners were going about it, noting that they were asking for City Council concessions to avoid additional costs of moving an existing attached garage. Mayor Klausing and City Attorney Anderson clarified that the easement was a private agreement between the two parcels of land; and the only request before the City Council for consideration was the subdivision. Ms. Studenski questioned the type of home that could be built on Parcel B, taking into consideration the existing and proposed easements on the lot; and opined that the applicant would most likely be at future Council meetings to request variances. Ms. Studenski concluded by opining that each homeowner should be required to have their own driveway for their own responsibility and maintenance. John Kysylyczyn, 3083 N Victoria Street Mr. Kysylyczyn noted that he was not a resident in this neighborhood, but reiterated his concern regarding lot split issues;
