Moved by Pederson, seconded by Cousineau, to approve the consent agenda. Motion
passed unanimously.
VI. COMMENTS (7:08 p.m.)
A. Comments from Citizens on Items not on the Agenda
There were none.
B. Park Commission
Scherer reported that the Park Tour will occur the following night and welcomed
members of the Council to attend. He stated that the bus will be leaving City Hall at 5:00
p.m. to tour the different park properties.
C. Planning Commission
Murrin reported that the Planning Commission met the previous week to consider a
concept plan for Elim Care. She stated that the Commission liked the plan, but noted
that the timing would most likely be impacted by the Comprehensive Plan review. She
stated that the Commission discussed the topic of allowing nursing home uses into high
density zoning and the consensus was that developers should be allowed to construct
nursing homes if that is the zoning district the developer would desire. She stated that
the Commission also considered a request regarding solar panel installation. She stated
that the Commission discussed the ordinance and recommended changing the
ordinance to allow up to 1,500 square feet in the rural residential zoning district without
the use of a CUP. She stated that the Commission believed that up to 2,500 square feet
could be installed with a CUP if the criteria are met. She stated that the Commission
also recommended approval of the CUP request from the Rechelbachers, in the case
the Council does not agree with amending the ordinance language. She noted that the
Commission also considered a setback variance request for a chicken coop from a
family and recommended approval.
Martin noted that the solar array calculations seemed very small compared to the size of
the lot and asked for direction on how that was determined.
Murrin stated that because there has not been a lot of experience with solar equipment
in the community, the Commission erred on the side of caution.
Martin stated that it seems like a big jump for the CUP to require 20 acres for up to 2,500
feet.
Murrin noted that additional changes can be made in the future and stated that the
Commission still wanted to have some control over the solar panel requests. She noted
that these limitations apply to ground mounted solar and advised that applicants can still
use roof mounted solar.
VII. NEW BUSINESS
A. Peter and Mindy Rechelbacher —1822 Homestead Trail — Zoning Ordinance
Text Amendment (7:17 p.m.)
Finke summarized the history on the ordinance related to solar, noting that roof mounted
solar equipment is allowed in almost every district in the City. He noted that ground
mounted solar is allowed in certain zoning districts under a CUP, with size limitations.

solar arrays on five acre rural residential lots rather than continuing to amend the
ordinance as requests come forward.
Martin asked for additional information on number nine, located on page three of the
staff report.
Finke provided additional details on the condition that applies to ground mounted arrays
between 1,500 and 2,500 square feet with the use of a CUP.
Martin stated that she was a bit concerned with how certain elements could be
subjective and also did not understand why 20 acres of land would be required. She
stated that while she would favor larger steps, she would also agree with these baby
steps and would look forward to the next amendment of the ordinance that will
eventually come.
Mitchell stated that he would support taking smaller steps, such as this, to ensure the
ordinance is being amended in the best manner.
Cousineau asked and confirmed that staff would still be approving landscaping plans.
There was additional discussion regarding the proposed 20-acre lot size and Finke
noted that staff would support a lower acreage size.
Mitchell stated that a lot of work has gone into this and the ordinance can always be
amended in the future as needed.
Anderson stated that the Council was in agreement with the applicant's request but the
policy discussion was of more concern. He stated that he could support reducing the lot
size to 10 acres for up to 2,500 square feet.
Pederson confirmed that he could also support the request.
Martin stated that she would also support allowing up to 2,500 square feet with a ten -
acre lot. She noted that an additional comment could be added protecting the rural view
shed.
It was the consensus of the Council to allow up to 1,500 square feet without a CUP and
to allow 2,500 square feet on lots ten acres in size with a CUP.
Martin stated that she would like to remove one of the standards from the ordinance and
instead place that within the CUP criteria as it can be very subjective. She advocated for
removing condition ten.
Cousineau stated that she would view condition ten as the neighbor's option for
objecting to the project. She stated that she would not be opposed to leaving the
language in.
