Residents seek city clarity after private survey shifts property lines
Summary
Two residents asked the council for guidance after a private survey showed front property lines set back 40–45 feet and extending to adjacent streets; one asked about building options and another about RV placement rules in a trailer park.
During public comment at the July 8 meeting, resident Gary Martin of 339 Electric Blvd told the council a survey by Grant County Surveying shows his property front line lies 40–45 feet back from Electric Blvd and that boundaries extend to Lincoln Ave and Grant Ave; he requested clarification from the city on options for building on the lot.
Ian (listed as "lan" in the minutes) Turner, owner of the trailer park at 321 Electric Blvd immediately north of Martin's property, also asked the council for clarity about where RVs and trailers may be placed on his property. The minutes record the requests but do not show a formal staff response or an immediate action by council; staff follow-up is implied.
City staff typically advise property owners to consult the zoning and subdivision code and to coordinate with Planning and Public Works on setbacks and permitted placement; the minutes do not record specific code citations or a deadline for follow-up in this case.
