being changed so that that can be, because minutes matter.
Chief Don Johnson: Exactly.
Mayor Furlong: With regard to the delivery of that antidote or counter acting drug so thank you for that

deputies, the sheriff’s department is also going to go through similar training so.
Chief Don Johnson: Correct.
Mayor Furlong: Whoever gets there first with the proper training can administer that and hopefully save
some lives in tragic situations.

Narcan and it made a difference so unfortunately it’s one of those things that we, times are changing and
we’re changing with them.

PUBLIC HEARING: CONSIDER METES AND BOUNDS SUBDIVISION REQUEST TO
CREATE TWO LOTS, 6601 HORSESHOE CURVE; APPLICANT: RON HARVIEUX.
Mayor Furlong: Let’s start with a staff report if we could and then we’ll have, if Mr. Harvieux’s here
we’ll have a presentation there as well.
Kate Aanenson: Thank you Mayor, members of the City Council. This is a metes and bounds
subdivision. The City Council may approve a metes and bounds subdivision into two lots. The splitting
of it if all the urban services are available and then both lots result in meeting the standards of the City,
which in this circumstance they do. As you stated this lot is located on 6601 Horseshoe Curve. So the
proposal then is for the two lots. This lot has a home on it and you’re creating Lot 1. This subdivision
was approved back in 2012. Created a zoning lot and then it, so it was, there was an existing home to the
south and these two lots were created. A house was built and then they were combined back in order to
get, go back and create a lot you have to go through the subdivision process and in this circumstance
again it’s the metes and bounds is the mechanism. So this is the as-built survey. So this is existing home
here. Existing home here and then the proposed new subdivision lot. All these lots meet the minimum
15,000. The new lot being created is 15,064. We do have the compliance table in there. We did get a
call from a few neighbors just making sure that the lot’s met the minimum and they do. Also we had the

hard surface calculation. Again just ensuring that no variance would be required in the future and making
sure a house does fit on that lot. And as demonstrated it does so with that we are recommending approval
of the subdivision and we’d be happy to answer any questions that you have.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Any questions for staff? No? Okay. Is the applicant here this evening?
Yep. If you’d like to address the council or anything you’d like to add or say?
Ron Harvieux: Not really.
Mayor Furlong: Okay.
Ron Harvieux: Thank you for the opportunity but I think we’re going back to where we were before and
thank you.
Mayor Furlong: Okay. Thank you. Any questions for the applicant by members of the council? No?
Okay. Thank you everyone. This is a public hearing is required, is that right Ms. Aanenson?
Kate Aanenson: That’s correct.
Mayor Furlong: So at this time I will open the public hearing and invite all interested parties to come
forward and address the council on this matter. Seeing no one, without objection we’ll close the public
hearing and bring it back to council for discussion and consideration of a motion. Any discussion?
Everything seems to fit the requirements so is there a motion?
Councilwoman Ernst: Mr. Mayor I’ll make a motion.
Mayor Furlong: Certainly. Councilwoman Ernst.
Councilwoman Ernst: I make a motion the City Council approve the two lot metes and bounds
subdivision of Harvieux Addition subject to the conditions of the staff report and adopts the Findings of
Fact and Decision.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Is there a second?
Councilman Laufenburger: Second.
Mayor Furlong: Motion’s been made and seconded. Any discussion on the motion? Seeing none we’ll
proceed with the vote.
