lots. We request that both lots be declared as buildable residential single family lots. Both lots have access to a city road
via an established driveway on a 33’ wide recorded easement. The nature and terrain of the parcel makes it impractical to
meet township road standards. The audience was polled with Aaron Miller speaking in support of the variance as
requested. Emails from Austen Miller and Bard Miller in support of the variance as requested were read for the record. A
note from Richard Huschka in opposition to a metes and bounds subdivision was noted for the record. After consideration
and discussion, Joe Maske made a motion, second by Thomas Lee and unanimously carried, to approve the proposed
subdivision as stated in the application dated May 17, 2012 and as illustrated on the drawing submitted with the
application. Hardship/practical difficulty is the terrain of the applicants’ property.
