Commissioner Gummer made a motion to approve. Commissioner Schaumberg seconded. Petitioner, Mr. Meyer, proposes to purchase property and amend the floodplain map and alter wetland delineation.

This proposed driveway would access drive along the sanitary sewer easement. The recorded subdivision plat has a note restricting direct access of this lot onto Adrian Drive. The note was placed on plat as a recommendation by Plan Commission to Common Council prior to plat approval. Mr. Drew approached the Commission stating that safety for his children was the major reason for this request. A driveway off Black Walnut Court would consist of numerous direction changes culminating in a hairpin turn into the garage which would also create a blind spot. Another reason for this request is financial, there being a greater cost if the driveway is off Black Walnut Court. Petitioner also pointed out that lot #23 10-06-98 PC Minutes Page 3 was granted permission for access onto Adrian and Mr. Drew feels that the precedence has been set.

Commissioner Schaumberg removed herself from Commission because of potential conflict of interest. Discussion ensued wherein a detailed and updated map needs to be submitted with location of all outbuildings, estimated square footages, location of both residences; sanitary sewer systems; water wells servicing each residence and driveway access. Too many outbuildings are located on property. Property is currently under noncompliance. If divided, both properties need to be brought into compliance with Zoning District requirements. Suggestions were given on dividing the parcel to be in compliance however, Mr. Loebel stated he wished to have the two barns remain on one parcel for income purposes. Petitioner also stated that he has done a great deal of updating to the buildings and does not want to remove structures from the parcel. Commissioner Hulbert made a motion to defer allowing petitioner time to reconsider the compliance issue of outbuildings and review alternative lot configurations. Commissioner Gummer seconded.
