8. FRED KELLER PROPOSED SUBDIVISION PLAN
Fred Keller presented a subdivision plan for a 21 acre parcel
owned by he and his wife at 1255 North Willow Drive. The
proposed subdivision provided for 17 lots one acre or more in
size. Keller said the property would have to be rezoned from
Rural Residential to Suburban Residential because of the soils
inability to accommodate septic systems. Keller said that in
order to develop the property he would need sanitary sewer.
Keller added that the proposed subdivision would complement the
Medina Morningside housing development located adjacent to the
property.
Councilmember Zietlow said the proposed plan required an
amendment to the City's comprehensive plan and would have to be
approved by the Met Council.
Keller said he had been trying to develop the site since 1978
when the City obtained an easement on his property to add a lift
station and sewer pipe to serve the Medina Morningside area. He
said it was the City's intention at that time to allow the site
to be developed but the Met Council and the City of Orono
rejected the plan.
Councilmember Johnson asked if Keller's property was included in
the comprehensive plan.
Keller said he came to the City with a 38-unit subdivision plan
in 1991 but his plan was denied by the City Council after being
approved by the Planning Commission.
Councilmember Ferris, who served on the Planning Commission at
the time, said Keller's property was not considered to be in a
sewered area and was therefore excluded from the sewer district.
Ferris said Orono would have to advocate the plan with the
addition of 17 sewer units.
City Attorney Ron Batty said the Council was in an unusual
position because Keller was asking the Council to give him an
indication of what they would be inclined to do with the proposed
plan. Batty said the purpose of the public hearing process is to
develop all the facts so that by the time the matter comes to the
60
Council, they have have all the information needed to make a
decision.
Batty said the last time the City requested that this area be
sewered, it was rejected by the Met Council. Batty said the
issue was whether the Council wanted to raise the fight again.
Councilmember Ferris said Keller's proposal was more meaningful
and worthy of further discussion because of the location of the
lift station and sewer pipe on Keller's property. He pointed out
that the potential allocation of 17 additional sewer units had
nothing to do with the Hamel trunk sewer line.
Councilmember Zietlow said that in addition to the Met Council's
rejection of Keller's plan two years ago, several Medina
residents also expressed opposition to any development on the
site.
Keller said many residents went through a lot of emotional stress
while the Council was revising the comprehensive plan.
Mayor Theis posed the question of why the lift station was placed
on Keller's property in 1978 unless the City intended to sewer
the area.
Councilmember Johnson said there seemed to be vagueness as to
what happened in the past and added that he wanted to remain
open-minded.
Councilmember Thies said she was not in a position to comment one
way or another because she did not feel there was enough
information to give any kind of indication.
Keller said all he was looking for from the Council was some
direction.
Councilmember Zietlow suggested that Keller begin by talking to
Orono to find out if they would be in favor of granting the
additional sewer units.
9. PROCLAMATION
Moved by Mayor Theis, seconded by Ferris, to join in proclaiming
May of 1993 as "Older Americans Month" by recognizing the special
contributions of senior citizens and the special efforts of staff
and volunteers of the Tamarack Senior Center who work to enhance
the well-being of older persons.
Motion carried unanimously.
10. PAYMENT OF BILLS
Moved by Johnson, seconded by Thies, to approve Order Check
Numbers 11924-11959 for $330,206.68 and Payroll Check Numbers
13288-13307 for $15,084.57.
