This is a 2 lot subdivision containing I farmstead split lot and 1 agricultural outlet of 7.32 acres located on the south side of 210th Street NE approximately 1000 feet west of its imersection with State Highway I NE in Big Grove Township. MMS Consultants Land Surveyor Mark Stein was present to answer questionS. Sullivan asked what the purpose of this outlot is. Stein said if there was not a five-acre rule, the subdivision would not necessarily need this outlet. No farm land is being taken out of production; this outlet is seven acres of trees and buildings. Sullivan said the reason behind the five-acre rule is to avoid having seven acre lots, and that is essentially what has been cre- ated here. Rettig said the Board needs to revisit the rules in order to prevent eight or nine acre estates from being built. Neuzil said this application meets all of the requirements in terms of rules and regnlations. Sullivan said he prefers developers voluntarily follow the five-acre rule and not push the limit.
