Planning Commission <br />Meeting Minutes <br />January 10, 2019 <br />Page 10 of 16 <br />was not on the property, he did not think "peculiar to the specific property" applied, <br />either. <br />Williams asked if there was a condition requiring the future development of a street on <br />the lot line. <br />Zuccaro replied that there was no such condition related to this plat application. The <br />City has had long-range plans to extend Kaylix Avenue and had approached the <br />property owner to acquire the necessary right-of-way. The property owner supported <br />those plans, but did not want to go through the right-of-way process at the moment. This <br />replat was trying to make it easier in the future so no one will build where the City wants <br />to put the future road, while also creating two lots that can be developed or sold. <br />Ritchie added that the Comprehensive Plan addressed connecting the two parts of <br />Kaylix Avenue. <br />Zuccaro responded to Commissioner Hsu's concern about modification criteria number <br />one. He acknowledged that it was not black and white, but they considered the lot to be <br />"unique" because the property was in the middle of two sides of a road that the City <br />wanted to connect in the future. <br />Hsu stated that having a right-of-way would not affect the future sale of the lot. The <br />modification review criteria was pretty stringent and was only to be waived with a PUD. <br />Zuccaro responded that another way to look at it was that the development had already <br />taken place with the shed, which was "reasonable development." <br />Ritchie added that the phrase "reasonable development" could address future <br />development, including the desired road. <br />Brauneis asked for additional questions of staff. Seeing none, he asked for staff final <br />statements. <br />Ritchie reminded the commissioners that they could ask for further information and that <br />staff recommended the proposal. <br />Moline stated that he was in favor of both aspects of what the replat would let the City <br />do: create a consistent street pattern for this portion of the town and create Outlot A, <br />allowing the City to purchase the land to construct an underpass for the trail system in <br />an area where there was a recent fatality. <br />Brauneis asked Commissioners Williams and Hsu if their reservations stemmed from <br />the outcome or the procedure. <br />Williams and Hsu indicated that they were concerned with procedure. <br />Hsu confirmed that his issues were procedural. He supported the underpass, but he <br />was not convinced that criteria 1, 2, or 5 were satisfied. For criterion 5, he thought there <br />
