V COM14UNICATIONS AND CORRESPONDENCE
A. Milton Zahn - Vehicle Use of Island Lake - Mr. Zahn
would like to know the P&Z°s recommendation of how
to amend this problem. He suggested that there
might be some way they could recommend to the Borough
Assembly a solution for this problem. He went on to
further say that the State Police does not have
jurisdiction or a law to enforce the use of autos
and snowmobiles on the lake. Mrs. Gellis stated that
we make a recommendation stating we have no authority
but we are against the use of autos and snowmobiles
on Island Lake. Mr. Holt stated that the only
solution is that Island Lake be put into a jurisdictional
authority. Mrs. Gellis stated that we write the
Local Affairs Agency and see actually what can be done
about this problem. Mr. Holt moved that the letter
be forwarded to the Borough Assembly with a note frog}
P&Z that we realize that P&Z has no authority and we
recognize the problem and recommend that the Borough'.
take all action possible to alleviate it. Seconded

the development of the Bells Flats Area. Mr. Holt

poses to make his ware house into a residence. Mr.

approval of the second to read that Mr. Redick's ware-

VII SUBDIVISIONS, PRELIMINARY
A. Art Zimmer - Vacation & Replat of Lot 2 & 2A Holland
Acres Subdivision - Mr. Zimmer stated he will �_._
buy the existing property that would be needed to enablE
his house to be on his own property. At present
rests on property that is not his own. Mr. Zimmer
also would like to subdivide into four lots in the
future, with a total of 103,000 square feet of land,
but he will not do this if the Planning & Zoning
Commission does not know if they are going to pass
the ordinance stating that a lot can be 25,000 sq. ft.
with City sewer and water. Mr. Welch stated they are
presently working to have a work session to up -date
the Zoning Ordinance and it should be done and approved
by June 30. The question is that the Borough Assembly
must approve the Ordinance also. So they could not
state that they were going to approve the 25,000 sq. ft.
lot limit with City sewer and water, but only indicate
the direction they are going.
