. . . City Council Minutes October 17, 2005 Page 4 Councilmember Motin questioned if a condition should be added stating a joint access agreement is needed. Mr. Leeseberg stated this condition should be included. Councilmember Motin questioned why the minimum lot size for the two parcels falls under the minimum 10 acre requirement. Mr. Leeseberg stated the Board of Adjustments granted a variance to the applicant. Brad Stevens, Planning Commissioner-Stated the applicant met the ordinance requirements for a variance. He stated there are wetlands on the property that would prevent it from being subdivided into 2 !j2 acre lots when allowed in 2010. Councilmember Farber stated the minimum lot size for this parcel is 10 acres and questioned if a precedent would be set because these lots are being divided into less then 10 acres. City Attorney Peter Beck stated that in the past the city has granted administrative subdivisions for plats that fall under the minimum due to the amount of property the city/county takes for right of way. He further stated the city shouldn't take the future 2 % acre zoning into consideration. He noted that this parcel was originally under 20 acres prior to the right of way being taken.
