City Council Minutes Page 5 March 16, 2020 ----------------------------- Councilmember Christianson indicated the request to reduce lot size has come up quite a bit since he's been Councilmember. He questioned if this is something that should be discussed at a fixture work session. Councilmember Wagner explained most of these requests come before the Council at work session giving the Council a chance to discuss. She stated these lots are consistent with those approved for Twin Lake Estates and she is ok with approving this request. Councilmember Westgaard indicated this request is in an urban residential area versus a rural residential area. He explained he feels there is a variety of lot sizes in Elk River depending on the location and zoning. He stated this request has been discussed and is consistent with the surrounding neighborhood and he is comfortable with approving it.
