Planning Board minutes.
Approval was recommended by the Planning Board for the re-
alignment of Lots 1 thru 14, Block 18, E1 Portal Subdivision, as requested
by Mr. Daniel Schmidt, providing for six lots each having over 7500 sq. ft.
of area. The Building Inspector reported that the County offices had tentatively
approved a re-platting of this property with the six lots as proposed. On
examination of the building sites it appeared that two of the lots had less than
75 ft. frontage which would require a variance for building. It was felt by
some members of the Council that only five lots should be permitted. Mr.
Lung moved that the Council defer action on the request. Motion was seconded
by Mr. Clement and passed unanimously. It was suggested to Mr. Schmidt
