Motion declared carried John Day, Conditional Use Permit and Variances Loren Kohnen stated that a letter from the Soo Line Railroad regarding drainage of Lots 3 and 4, Block 1, Medina Industrial Addition, would be received very soon, and because the next council meeting will not be held for three weeks, the applicant would like to obtain approval for the project to begin, at this meeting.

Motion declared carried Peter Kelly, Tuckborough Farm Subdivision Loren Kohnen explained that Peter Kelly had submitted two alternative overlay plans of the property which show future smaller lots and cul de sacs. Ron Batty stated that he had discussed this with other cities and found that there is no good means by which a city can require builders to keep away from road easements, unless the road easement is taken at the time of platting, or some other means for restricting development of a future roadway is devised. He stated easements could be recorded on the chain of title, although most people are not even aware of such recordings. Thomas Anderson explained what the planning sub -committee had suggested for future sewer expansion in the area. Ron Rogers, Planning Commission Chairman, stated that those plans will be brought to the Planning Commission for a public hearing and may or may not be approved. Regarding vacation of the existing Navajo Rd., Peter Kelly stated that he would like Navajo Rd. to remain where it is and rebuild it if the area is ever sewered. Thomas Anderson stated that he thought the Navajo Rd. right-of-way would be given to abutt- ing owners at time of platting. Council reviewed two overlays for smaller lots, with Peter Kelly asking if there was a problem with setbacks for houses if they had to be built with future cul de sacs in mind. He also asked about some of the lots not meeting soil requirements for septic systems. Stephen Schmit asked if variances would be given for barn setbacks it the city was going to ask for the overlay plan. Robert Mitchell stated that the two acre lots would not have a problem. Peter Kelly asked that council table the matter until the next meeting so.that he could have his engineer prepare a revised plan. Moved by schmit, seconded by Mitchell to table the Tuckborough Farm subdivision application until November 7, 1989. Motion declared carried 7.

LAURENCE ELWELL REFUND REQUEST Thomas Anderson asked if council wished to refund the $250 application fee that Larry Elwell had paid the city at the time he made application for rezoning of his property. Moved by Scherer, seconded by Schmit to not refund the $250 to Larry Elwell, as city staff, engineer and attorney had spent time working on the application. Motion declared carried J 9.

Ron Batty stated that they had attempted to secure a temporary restraining order to halt the Compeat operation on Co. Rd. 116, citing the fact that the operation exceeds what is allowed under the zoning ordinance. He stated that the judge had said that only yard waste could be incorporated into the soil. He stated that there is a temporary injunction hearing scheduled for October 24th and a number of people who have visited the site have found that the nature of the operation had changed from what the city had been told was to be done. Loren Kohnen stated that there seems to be no real direction to the operation; the gravel portion of the driveway has extended beyond where they had said it would be; the depth of leaves has exceeded the depth that Wally Doerr had said they would be and leaves are being dumped in an area that had not been specified to the city. Stephen Schmit stated that about 45 loads had been delivered today. Loren Kohnen stated that there is no control over what is hauled in and that he was going to start referring complaints to Vern Genzlinger and Tad Jude. 11. WOODLAKE LANDFILL Ron Batty stated that he had spoken to Greg Korstad, attorney for Browning -Ferris Industries, who had told him the county was not going to continue with plans to bury Type I ash, but want to continue with the schedule for Type II ash. Stephen Schmit asked what was to happen with the Type I area that had been prepared. Ron Batty stated that future plans had been discussed at a meeting today and that BFI knows they cannot leave the area as it is today. Robert Mitchell stated that Ron Batty and Loren Kohnen should prepare a letter telling BFI to restore the site so as not to collect water in the winter. He stated that there is a Letter of Credit the city could draw from if the work is not done and that the city should consider allowing them to work longer hours to restore the site. Moved by Mitchell, seconded by Scherer to send a letter to BFI telling them the Type I ash area should be restored within two weeks, if necessary they can work from sun -up to sun- down, six days a week and authorize Wenck Associates to monitor the progress of the work. Motion declared carried 12.
