PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT James and Tracy Otis, Variance JoEllen Hurr explained that James and Tracy Otis had made application to construct a a 12' by 12' deck onto their house at 500 Ridge View Circle, and due to the fact that the lot is a corn lot and city ordinance requires 30 ft. setbacks on both streets, they have requested a 12' variance from the rear lot line. Moved by Scherer, seconded by Theis to authorize preparation of a resolution granting a 12 ft. variance to James and Tracy Otis to construct a 12 ft. by 12 ft. deck onto their house at 500 Ridge View Circle.

Alpana Aluminum, Rezoning ; Lot Line Rearrangement; Conditional Use Permit 6Wilfred Scherer conducted this portion of the meeting,in the absence of Mayor Anderson. Thomas Anderson explained that Alpana Aluminum has requested rezoning of the remainder of their property at 3800 Co. Rd. 116, and that they plan to construct a 3 0,000 sq. ft. addition to their building. He stated that the Planning Commission had recommended re- zoning of 120 additional feet of property to accomodate the building addition and had recommended approval of the Conditional Use Permit for the building addidtion. Robert Mitchell stated that the order of action would need to be, rezoning, lot line rearrangement and Conditionl Use Permit. Bruce Hendry, Rolling Green Country Club property owner, stated that he was opposed to the area being rezoned industrial because industrial would not be compatible with the residential housing he was interested in constructing around the perimeter of the golf course. He stated that residential would add more tax base than office/warehouse. Thomas Anderson stated that they would improve the screening from sight of the golf course Don Klitzka of Alpana, stated that when the original building was constructed he had suggested screening on the hill but the Planing Commission had not given its approval. Ron Rogers stated that some planning is needed for the area from Co. Rd. 116 to Hwy. lol and that a committee should be organized to review the area zoning and the Comp- rehensive Plan. Moved by Mitchell, seconded by Theis to authorize preparation of a resolution for the rezoning of 120 ft. of teh Alpana property to Industrial; to allow for a lot line re- arrangement and amendment of the Conditional Use Permit to include the 120 ft., all according to the Planning Commission recommendations. Fidel and Mary Theis, Lot Line Rearrangement JoEllen Hurr explained that Fidel and Mary Theis had made application for a lot line rearrangment to allow their property line to be moved 40 ft. to the west. She stated that the parcel is one acre in size, with the reason for the additional feet being the inclusion of a line to trees to the west, with his property. Moved by Theis, seconded by Scherer to authorize preparation of a resolution approving of the line line rearrangement for Fidel and Mary Theis at 492 Hamel Rd. Mction declared carried Douglas and Mary Knudson, Building Height Variance JoEllen Hurr explained that the plans for the Knudson house at 1450 Willow Dr. had included a roof pitch of 12/12, which exceeded the cities ordinance for.height_re- quirements,so-the-plan was revised and ,a pitch of.10/12 was approved which would:have allowed the building height to be 30 ft. After construction began it was found that the contractor had made a mistake and constructed the roof to a 12/12 pitch. She explained that the Knudson's had then made an application for a variance to the build- ing height which had been denied by the Planning Commission for lack of a hardship. She explained that the fire departments are not in favor of taller buildings because they do not have fire equipment but that someone may want to discuss whether or not having a one hour fire rated ceiling might be acceptable. She asked if Council would consider issuing a Conditional Use Permit for such requests. Robert Mitchell stated that he did not believe that a Conditional Use Permit was a good idea. JoEllen Hurr stated that the Knudsons were willing to wait for a discussion on the possibility of changing the ordinance. Ron Rogers stated that the Planning Commission may want to study the possibility of taller buildings with large setbacks on large lots. Moved by Schmit, seconded by Theis to authorize preparation of a resolution denying the Douglas Knudson building height variance for lace of a hardship. Motion declared carried Rex Haskek, Variance JoEllen Hurr explained that Rex Haske had requested a variance from the 30 ft. setback requirement on a corner lot at 4645 Brook St., to allow construction of a house. She stated that there is a drainage swale that he wishes to retain and he would like to line up the house with others on the street. Council discussed the Planning Commissions recommendation to deny the variance for lack of a hardship and whether a 5 ft. variance would be sufficient. Moved by Theis, seconded by Scherer to authorize preparation of a resolution granting a 5 ft. variance from Lakeshore Ave. for construction of a house at 4645 Brook St., hardship being the retention of the drainage swale on the opposite side of the house. Motion declared carried Mr. Hasek appeared late and asked if Council would also grant a 2 ft. variance from the north side to allow him to change the posistion of the house so as to line up with the adjacent house. Moved by Mitchell, seconded by Theis to amend the previous motion to allow the addit- ional 2 ft. variance at the southwest corner to allow the house to be aligned with the adjacent house to the west. Motion declared carried Peterson/Johnson Subdivision JoEllen Hurr stated that a title search of the property had found a Federal Tax Lien on the property that must be added to the resolution approving the Peterson/Johnson sub- division. She stated that the area had been inspected by the engineer and herself and and would recommend that one house be allowed on the north side of the road and one on -the south side, before the road is finally constructed. Glenn Cook stated that the road plan needs to be corrected to provide for a road 30 ft. wide with road fabric placed the entire length of the road. Thomas Anderson asked if the Council could approve the subdivision with the condition that the lien be satisfied and proper road plans submitted. Art Peabody stated that Eberhardt would prepare the final plat with road contours, etc. Moved by Mitchell, seconded by Theis to authorize preparation of fa resolution granting final approval to the Peterson/Johnson subdivision, including removal of the Federal Tax Lien, approval of the road plans and other conditions included in the prepared resolution. Motion declared carried William Nelson, Variance JoEllen Hurr explained that William Nelson had purchased property from C.Kent Olson in February and wishes to construct a house. Since making the application it has been discovered that the variances granted in 198$ for setbacks, have expired. Ron Batty explained that city ordinance required that Mr. Nelson needs to apply for another variance. William Nelson stated that setbacks from the lake might change but a building envelope would not change and that an owner should be notified if a variance expires. JoEllen Hurr reported that the Planing Commission has a special meeeting scheduled on June 30th and Mr. Nelson could make application for that meeting. William Nelson stated that he had revised the building plans and had secured a survey. Robert Mitchell stated that measurements for setbacks should be made from the street. Stephen Schmit stated that expiration time of a variance should be included in the resolution. Anne Theis stated that if a building envelope is approved, the time limit for it should also be included in a resolution. Moved by Mitchell, seconded by Theis to direct William Nelson to make application to the Planning Commission for a setback variance. Motion declared carried Art Peabody, Bills Anne Theis stated that she had reviewed the bills that had accumulated from the Art Pea- body subdivision of Melody Meadows. She stated that she was concerned about a bill for $462.00 from the city attorney because it contained charges for several reviews and conferences. She explained that there should be a limit to the amount of review that needs to be done on any one subject. Thomas Anderson asked if there had been more difficulty with this subdivision that some others. Ron Batty stated that additional work needed to be done on this file especially the doc- ument regarding the easement. He stated that he could research the bill, if necessary. E rti C( Art Peabody produced the easement document. Ron Batty stated that the document does not certify that the document was filed with Hennepin County. JoEllen Hurr stated that the bill through February, 1987 is $2535.45. Moved by Mitchell, seconded by Theis to reduce the bill by one half of the items totaling $462.00. or $321.00.

He stated that the cost increase would be 8% for the change and he asked that a Change Order be prepared. Robert Mitchell stated that Council had approved a policy for 22 ft.wide blacktopped roads with trails, where possible. He asked why the policy should be changed.
