3. Council Matters
A. FILED FOR SECOND READING:
1) An Ordinance Amending Section 4-2 of the Land Development Code regarding
Subdivision Variances – It allows individuals to apply for a variance when they’re
submitting for a final minor plat. The City has jurisdiction over subdivisions within a
mile and a half of the boundary and often sees requests for subdivisions consisting of
2 or 3 lots right outside the City. It isn’t always feasible to dedicate green space or
install a sidewalk. Motion to approve (Risavy), seconded (Krause) and voted all ayes
to forward to Council
2) An Ordinance Amending the Land Development Code adding Section 3-4.C
“Consolidation Plats and Boundary Adjustment Plats” – This allows for the
consolidation and the adjustment of lines for existing lots of record. Motion to
approve (Risavy), seconded (Morrison) and voted all ayes to forward to Council.

3) An Ordinance Amending the Land Development Code Section 2-2 Selected
Definitions of the Land Development Code –The addition of regulations for both
Consolidation Plats and Boundary Adjustment requires definitions for these new
terms. Motion to approve (Risavy), seconded (Krause) and voted all ayes to forward
to Council.
4) An Ordinance Amending the Zoning Ordinance Chapter 1250 (Lot Coverage and
Utilization) – This ordinance amends our zoning code in three ways. It will require a
consolidation plat when multiple parcels that do not exceed minimum requirements
on their own are used as one. It will allow for the use of lots 50 feet wide. It will also
clarify the regulations for the use of small lots greater or equal to 50 feet wide
providing for reduced setbacks. Motion to approve (Risavy), seconded (Morrison)
and voted all ayes to forward to Council.
5) An Ordinance Making Appropriations for the Fiscal Year Beginning the First Tuesday
