. + legislation that was passed. Mr. Dubelko did not recall a timetable, but suggested that there would be legislation brought before the City shortly regarding the organizational agreement between the City and the Library system, which will have timetables regarding site acquisition. Mr. Asseff questioned if it would be reasonable to believe that site acquisition would accrue some time in 2001. Mr. Dubelko felt that action would be taken to acquire all the necessary parcels in 2001. R. Koeth motioned to table Halleen Auto Sales of 27461 Lorain Road, which consists of a new auto sales building. The applicant will submit new plans showing the recommendations mentioned above. The motion was seconded by, T. Hreha and unanimously approved. Proposal Tabled. IV. NEW DEVELOPMENTS AND SUBDIVISIONS: l. Cinnamon Lake Subdivision, Preliminarv Plat. The proposal is to subdivide perinanent parcel No. 264-07-025 (recently annexed), located south of Cook Road and east of Bronson Road, into forty four (44) B-Residential sublots and two (2) Remnant blocks. Note: 1) That Re-Zoning (item No.2, this agenda) is required. 2) This proposal was tabled at the Planning Corrunission meeting dated October 24 and November 14, 2000. Mr. Grendal, Hennie Homes attorney, came forward to review the proposal. Mr. Grendal indicated that the property was in the township and has been annexed to North Olmsted. The property was zoned in the township as the first 500 feet residential and the remainder of the property was industrial. During the annexation process, the owner of the property voiced their intent to have the property zoned as single family residential to the City of North Olmsted. The two issues from the law department were the length of the street and block B property. He suggested that he reviewed the letter from the Iaw department. Under chapter 11 of the revised code, you can have a block, which is not a build-able lot, or based on your definition under 1115,08 of the zoning code it is not a zoning lot. The owners would like to keep the land marked Block B on the site plan as a Block a non build-able lot. However, if the Planning Commission would prefer they would be willing to combine block B with lot C. The next issue would be the length of the street, which we agree with the law departments memo. Under section 1101.02 (d- 12-e) which states if possible a street will be continuous and it is clear that it is not possible to have a continuous street prograin at this time. If a continuous street can not be fitted into the overall street plan, which there is none, because this is the only street in North Olmsted on this side of the street, then a cul-de-sac is permitted. The ordinance states that it is to be a length of 500 feet, with a terminus of 120 feet unless larger dimensions are recommended by the Planning Corrunission and approved by Council. The stub street is the only thing that the owner can do to accotrunodates the provision in the code. Mr. Grendel discussed a case currently in court regarding a stub street. He submitted that what happens over the boarder can not be relevant to what happens in the opposite boarder as they are separate jurisdictions. The best the owners can do is offer the stub street that is shown on the site plan and they would Iike a favorable approval from the Planning Commission. Mr. Grendel suggested that even though the Plamung Commission meetings were open to the public anyone wishing to speak would need to be a resident for their comments to be considered. Mr. Spalding suggested that the City did want to know what is next to the proposed site as the city does not want commercial lots next to expensive residential homes. Mr. Grendal suggested that the courts say the neighboring sites can not be taken into consideration. Mr. Dubelko suggested that it was up to the City to determine 5
