LAINSON Mr. Don Schmeiser Department of Community Development Davis Building Iowa City, Iowa 52240 RE: Alvin F. Streb - orchard Court Subdivision Dear Don: After our discussion on the telephone relative to the correction of the erroneous legal description in the ordinance approving the planned area development for orchard Court Subdivision, it would appear to me that the City Council could approve an ordinance containing the proper legal description without the necessity of holding a public hearing or referring the matter back to the Planning and Zoning Commission. I believe that the final preliminary plat filed for orchard Court Subdivision contained the correct legal description, and that the Planning and Zoning Commission actually acted on the proper plat. Also, I believe that the public hearing was held on the planned area development containing the proper legal description with the only defects being in the procedures followed thereafter. It would therefore appear to me that this matter is still awaiting final action by the Council and that the three considerations, final passage and publication are all that would be required to rectify this defect. It should be borne in mind that we are dealing only with remedying a procedural error. It is my assumption that, in all probability, building permits have already been issued in the area in question and a proper resolution approving the final plat of the subdivision has been adopted by the Council. As I mentioned over the phone, money is being held in escrow because of this error, which was only dis- covered in connection with a title examination, and I would be hopeful that, under all of the circumstances present, the problem could be resolved with a minimum of difficulty and time being involved. I would be happy to discuss this matter with you further at your convenience. 1-1-1 ajv��_ cc: Mr. Alvin F. Stre MICROFILM[[) BY I DORM MICR+LAB MAP Upnlnt K 11(9 1.101,11
