COMMENTS FROM THE COMMISSION:
A discussion ensued regarding the creation of an irregular lot line and if this change creates the potential
for future “overdevelopment” on one or both lots or sets a precedent. Commissioners also expressed concern that lawn maintenance, fencing, etc. could become confusing because of the
irregular lot line (who cuts what). Commissioners acknowledged both property owners have agreed to this lot line rearrangement and in the future if one or both of the properties are
sold the new buyers would be aware of this irregular lot line.
COMMISSION ACTION:
Commissioner Schroeder moved to recommend lot division approval for LD-07-5. Commissioner Fischer
seconded the motion. All voted aye; motion carried.

The meeting adjourned at 7:20 PM
