City Council Meeting Minutes April 18, 2017 Page 6 of 12 Attorney Light stated the definitions are as Councilmember Stolzmann mentioned, but it is a debatable point in the code. Complicating this issue is that Parbois Lane is already used as primary access for other residences in the area. Mayor Muckle moved to approve the subdivision with two conditions: 1) the owner will be required to improve and maintain the alley and 2) each lot will be limited to one single family home. Councilmember Keany seconded the motion. Councilmember Loo asked if "improve" needs to be defined. Attorney Light noted the required standards are set by Public Works and it will be quantified in the subdivision agreement. Attorney Light noted condition number one from the Planning Commission has been met so is not included the resolution. Attorney Light suggested specific language for the conditions in the resolution: 1. The Subdivider shall at its expense be responsible for improvement of the alley adjoining Lot 2. The owner of Lot 2 shall be responsible for maintenance of the alley improvements. Such requirements shall be set forth in the subdivision agreement. 2. The maximum density for principal uses shall be limited to one single-family dwelling per lot. Said restriction shall be stated on the plat and included in the subdivision agreement. Mayor Muckle and Councilmember Keany accepted the amendments. Mayor Pro Tem Lipton noted his concern of using an alley as primary access for a residence. He asked if there are any other options. Director Zuccaro stated to meet the lot width requirements there is no way the western lot can access from Front Street. Councilmember Maloney asked how wide the alley is. Director Zuccaro stated the ROW width is 20 feet and the paving is 16 feet. Councilmember Maloney stated he thinks that is sufficient for access. Voice vote passed 4-2, Mayor Pro Tem Lipton and Councilmember Stolzmann voted no.
