�utl�ots. Z "�—"_
Th�: Committee met with Mr. Lambert and Mr. Zund to discuss th� problems related
to the residential development of their properties. These problem� are associated
with the Tndus-trial Zone to the North, the loea�ion o� the sewer alt�ng Duluth
Street and th�; resulting assessments being out of proportion t�o the benefit
whi�h coul.d be derived for resi.dential development. It was their contention
that the sewer should have �one thru the center �af theix properties so tha.t
lots could have been backed up to the Tndu�trial zone to the North. They
adviseel the CQmmittee that at one time 3.t was planneel to so place th� sewer
lateral, but Zater changed over their objeetions to its present location �n
Duluth Street. In view of these eircumstances, they request Industrial
Zoning as a means to obtain benefits from the sewer equal to the assessments�
an.d to make it possible for them to market the ps�operties. All at�empts �o
develop the properties residentially have failed. The Cornrnittee recognizes the
prablem of trying to de�relt�p residential lots £acing undeveloped industriall�r
zoned prnperty where no restrictions ex3.st regarding setback or open space�.
The Co�unittee alsv ree�agnizes that �xtending the Industrial Zane t�o inelude
these two 1�-ts would solve Mr. Lambertis and Mr. Lund�s problem only tv plaee
a similar problem on the properties t�-the 5vuth East and West, and not sol�ce
the real probl�m at a1.1. It 3.s the Committee�s opinion that it wou3d be t� the
best interests of the Village if these lo�s cQUld be deqelaped in s�me light use
eategory, preferably residential. Study and e�►nsiderati�on should be given
toward, r�solut3on �f �he problems which seem un.favorable tt7ward such develt�pment.
Qn this basis the Co�nittee recommends denial of the request for rez�oning t�o
Industrial eategory. M4TI�N b�r Pennock, seco�ded by Loughland that the Plann.ing
Commi�sion accept the Committeets report and recozmnend tha.t Council den� this
request, earried.
