Johnson informed the Commission that the first Regular Meeting in February is the Annual Planning Commission Meeting when there is election of officers for the year. The bylaws state that nominations can be made at the meeting prior to the Annual Meeting. There were no nominations at this meeting. The Commissioners discussed the Community Needs Assessment, zoning ordinance revisions and the Le Foret fence variance appeal. Chairman Cunningham recessed the Regular Meeting and opened the meeting of the Board of Appeals and Adjustments and the public hearing for the request for variance to maximum sign height at 6:00 p.m. Johnson had in his possession Affidavits of Publication and Mailing Hearing Notice. Howard Hafner and Phillip Hankland, New Rosemount Dodge, were present to request a two feet variance to sign height. Mr. Hankland explained that they want to add a 4'x 4' Chrysler logo to the top of the existing 18' sign. This would result in a sign 22' in height with a total area of 64 sq. ft. When questioned by the Commissioners as to whether it was possible to lower the existing sign two feet, Mr. Hankland stated he had checked on that option with the sign company, and they said the existing sign could not be modified. There were no other persons present for comment. Chairman Cunningham closed the public hearing for New Rosemount Dodge at 6:10 p.m. MOTION by Ped that the two feet variance to sign height be granted because a reasonable hardship exists for this minor exception.

REGULAR PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING January 15, 1985 Page Two i Gene Stiles, 3515 147th Street West, was present to request an 18 feet variance to side yard setback. Mr. Stiles owns a corner lot at the intersection of 147th Street West and Chippendale Avenue. His side yard abuts Chippendale Avenue which has a 30 feet setback requirement. Mr. Stiles is requesting a building permit for an 18'x 20' addition to an existing double detached garage for the purpose of storage of personal property. The Commissioners recognized Mr. Stiles' unique situation wherein there is a history of drainage problems on his lot, and if he were to erect his garage addition in the rear yard he would be increasing an already existing drainage problem to adjoining lots to the west. There was lengthy discussion in which many alternatives were suggested. There were no other interested persons present at the hearing for comment. Chairman Cunningham closed the public hearing at 6:50 p.m. MOTION by Smith to grant a maximum 15 feet variance to Gene Stiles for side yard setback. Second by Ellingson. Ayes 4, Nays 0.

Johnson presented an update of the zoning ordinance. He explained that there is a restructuring of the original ordinance to incorporate the concept of conditional uses. Each zoning district will have definitions for permitted uses by right, other permitted uses with special restrictions and conditional use permits. Johnson presented a brief summary of the results of the Community Needs Assessment Study noting that major changes recommended were the creation of a central administrative position, a public works and engineering department, the consolidation of the building and planning departments, changes in job descriptions and additions to secretarial and clerical positions. An added duty of the building inspector would be enforcement of zoning violations. He would work closely with the head of the department to inventory all ordinance violations within the community and present them to City Council for direction as to how to deal with these violations. A major change which affects the duties of the Planning Commission was the recommendation to eliminate the requirement of the Planning Commission to perform formal site plan review. The Commissioners unanimously voiced their concern and opposition to this recommendation. They felt that site plan reviews were one of the Commission's major tasks and that the credibility of the Commission would be jeopardized should this recommendation be implemented.

Chairman Smith gave a brief summary of the public meeting he attended regarding the Community Needs Assessment Study. At the meeting he voiced the Commission's opposition to the proposal of eliminating the requirement for Planning Commission to perform formal site plan reviews. He noted that Council was in general agreement with retaining this major function as part of the duties of the Planning Commission. Johnson noted that his appointment with Fred Hoisington for the review of the revised zoning ordinance had been postponed because of a major snowstorm on the scheduled appointment date. Copies of the revised sections should be available for distribution at the next meeting. Commissioner Ped also noted that the Zoning Board of Appeals Workshop had to be rescheduled due to the weather, but the date has not been established. There was discussion regarding the request of the owners of Rosemount Woods to cause a lot division for the purpose of mortgaging property in that addition. Council has set a public hearing on March 19, 1985 at 8 :00 p.m. for the review of an amendment to the PUD. Formal action will be taken at the March 19, 1985 Regular Meeting.

Item added to the agenda: 5c. Accept Petition to Rezone as Requested by Clarence Alsip. Commissioner Ped requested that the discussion items be moved to the end of the agenda. Jim Evenson, BBPZ Partnership, was present to request a division of a 10 -acre parcel (Parcel 2) in Rosemount Woods. The property to be split was identified in the PUD as recreation open space which was to include a ball field. Because of the potential impact on the park this matter was brought up at a Park and Recreation Board meeting. Their concern is whether this land will be developed as a park. The Planning Commission also expressed concern as to what this property will eventually be used for. It was generally agreed upon that the request for this division was premature as there were no specific plans for the development of this property. MOTION by Smith that the request from BBPZ Partnership for a PUD amendment to cause a property division be denied. Second by Cunningham. Ayes 4, Nays 0. Jim Boerner, developer and owner, and Larry Ihle, adjacent property owner, were present to request approval of a site plan for Rosemount Gardens. This project, a garden center, consists of a 26'x 56' retail building and a professionally landscaped display area to be located at the corner of 151st Street West and Chippendale Avenue. Discussion included landscaping details, parking realignment, curbing and signage for the business. Concern was expressed by Commission members regarding ingress /egress from the site. There was general agreement that access to Chippendale Avenue should be restricted in this addition in order to provide a smoother traffic flow. With future development proposed for South Rose Park Addition there is a real potential for congestion on Chippendale Avenue which would also affect the intersection of County Road 42 and Chippendale. MOTION by Smith to approve the Rosemount Gardens site plan contingent on landscaping and parking details and design of entrance to the property as recommended by Steve Campbell, engineer. Second by Ellingson. Ayes 4, Nays 0.

REGULAR MEETING MINUTES March 19, 1985 Page Two Johnson presented a request from Wind's Crossing Company for the construction of improvements for Phase II of Valley Oak Addition Replat. The area requested for improvements comprises the westerly extension of Cornell Trail to, and including the cul -de -sacs of Cornell Court North and Cornell Court South, for an addition of 22 single family lots. This phasing varies from what was originally approved, therefore, an amendment to the PUD is necessary for this to occur. MOTION by Ped recommending to City Council that a public hearing for the Amendment to the PUD for Valley Oak Addition Replat be set. Second by Smith. Ayes 4, Nays 0. Discussion was held regarding a request by Clarence Alsip to split off seven acres of a 14 -acre parcel, 2650 130th Street West, to create a new building site. This would require a rezoning from Agriculture to Rural Residential, which is consistent with the comprehensive guide plan. MOTION by Cunningham recommending City Council set a public hearing to consider the rezoning from Agriculture to Rural Residential as requested by Clarence Alsip. Second by Ellingson. Ayes 4, Nays 0.

Discussion was held on the Wind's Crossing proposed change in staging of improvements in Valley Oak Addition Replat. Staff has reviewed the requested change which involves the extension of services to the southwest versus a northwesterly direction as proposed in the original PUD. Johnson indicated the original staging plan was intended to allow development potential north of Valley Oak Addition Replat. Cost estimates for the project were available for review; and, based on cost and logical trunk sewer staging, it was found that adherence to the original plan is the most feasible alternative. MOTION by Smith to deny the PUD amendment request for Valley Oak Addition Replat on the basis of sewer staging in the comprehensive plan, the approved development staging in the Valley Oak Addition PUD and to permit further development on the O'Leary property. Second by Ellingson. Ayes 4, Nays 0. Steve and Mike Broback, O'Leary's Hills developers, were present to discuss a sketch plan submitted for O'Leary's Hills 2nd Addition. This second phase includes 31 single family lots directly to the west of the first phase. The original PUD identified phase two as located to the north of the first addition. The change proposed is based upon the original staging of utility extensions in Valley Oak Addition Replat in order for this phase to be serviced. Discussion included the Commissions preference for minimum lot area with lot widths to be consistent with the phase one and a concept plan for the development of the entire O'Leary parcel. MOTION by Ellingson to accept the O'Leary's Hills 2nd Addition sketch plan and recommend that the developer resubmit a preliminary plan to include the following: 1) a concept plan of the entire O'Leary parcel 2) elimination of outlots 3) redesign lot widths and lot areas for better consistency with ordinance requirements 4) the inclusion of the right -of -way for Shannon Parkway completely within the O'Leary's Hills plat Second by Cunningham. Ayes 4, Nays 0. PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING May 7, 1985 Page Two Johnson informed the Commission that Vic Wenzel had been issued an excavation permit for exploring mining potential on his property south of CSAH 42. If any activity would exceed 10,000 cubic yards of material, a full mining permit review process would be required. Ron Welvaert has requested a building permit to erect a 42'x 60' storage building on a 6.44 acre parcel located near Biscayne Avenue and TH3. The Welvaerts propose to construct a home on the property three years after the storage building is built. Commission members expressed concern that approval of the accessory building in the absence of a principal structure would make the storage building the principal use of that property. Storage is not permitted in the Rural Residential area as a principal use; therefore, approval of the proposed structure prior to a principal structure would not meet zoning ordinance requirements. MOTION by Toombs to deny the request for an accessory building by Ron Welvaert based on its being built prior to the main structure, and therefore, is not a permitted use in the Rural Residential district. Second by Smith. Ayes 4, Nays 0. Johnson informed the Commission of Jerry Anderson's request for a grading permit at Phil's Body Shop. The purpose of the permit is to erect a berm along Bacardi Avenue for screening. The Commission expressed no objection to the request. The Dakota County HRA, 2496 145th Street West, has requested a building permit for a 40'x 45' attached garage to their office building for the purpose of storing maintenance equipment. The drawings submitted show there are no ordinance issues. Johnson indicated the HRA was requesting Commission approval before detailed plans were prepared for the building official's review. The Commission unanimously agreed there were no ordinance issues to prevent them from proceeding. The Commissioners unanimously agreed to delay zoning ordinance discussions until the next regular meeting. MOTION by Toombs to adjourn. Second by Ellingson.

Dean Johnson informed the Commission of an application received from Joe and Mary Gavin for a variance to subdivide a 7+ acre parcel presently zoned R -1 Single Family Residential. A variance hearing has been set for July 16, 1985 at 6:00 p.m. Les Nelson and Perry Goble, developers, were present to discuss a sketch plan they have submitted for a proposed shopping center and movie theater to 110 be located in South Rose Park. Johnson noted that because of the multiple lots and structures the PUD procedure will be followed. Lot divisions and lot combinations could be done by PUD procedure to eliminate setbacks from common lot lines. Basic concerns of the Commission included parking and smooth traffic flow. Mr. Nelson noted that they will retain a traffic consultant to advise them of ways to increase parking spaces and ensure smooth traffic flow based on the proposed uses of the structures. Cliff Carlson, property owner in South Rose Park, was present to give his support and represent the support of other business owners in this addition for the proposed shopping center and theater.

They are proposing to change the convent from residence to office and classroom space. There are no ordinance issues as the zoning of the property is Public. Commission members found no problems with the request. Johnson suggested the Commissioners write down their comments, if any, regarding the revised zoning ordinance and submit them to him at the next regular meeting on July 2, 1985, in an effort to keep the ball rolling on the review of the proposed ordinance.

Johnson requested an interpretation of the sign ordinance as it pertains to temporary signs in commercial districts. The ordinance permits one permanent freestanding sign per lot in commercial districts, however, one temporary sign as permitted in residential districts are also permitted in commercial districts. Are temporary signs, which are expressly permitted in the ordinance, also permitted along with one permanent sign per lot in commercial districts? Commission members expressed their fear of having multiple temporary signs in commercial districts and suggested an expiration date on permits for temporary signs might be implemented. The board was in general agreement that one temporary sign per lot should be allowed along with one permanent freestanding sign in commercial districts. Commissioner Toombs excused himself from his chair at 6:00 p.m. Zoning ordinance discussion included dimensional standards and regulations regarding lot sizes and lot coverage in all districts, height restrictions of accessory structures, parking requirements in all districts and signs.

Mary and Joe Gavin were present to request variance to minimum dimensional requirements for a lot division located at 12976 South Robert Trail. The existing 6.9 acre parcel contains the Gavin residence. The proposed subdivision would reduce their maintenance obligations by creating a 1.9 acre parcel which would include their residence. Johnson noted that the remaining vacant 5 -acre parcel consists of a large pond identified as wetland number 317 in the State's inventory of protected wetlands and waters. The required 100' setback requirement for scenic easement would eliminate any potential building site. The Board noted that while the maintenance issue may be a personal hardship the ordinance will only allow variances where a hardship is directly related to the property.

Discussion of the zoning ordinance revisions was moved to after new business items were discussed. Johnson advised the commissioners that Council has scheduled a public hearing scheduled on September 17, 1985 at 8:00 p.m. for concept PUD /preliminary plat for O'Leary's Hills. Paul Pink and Bruce Birch, Paul Pink Associates, Jim Benshoof, traffic consultant, and David Salene, financial consultant, were present for discussion of the revised concept /sketch plan for the proposed shopping center in South Rose Park. Discussion included access to the site, traffic patterns, building design, site coverage, landscaping and parking. Many business owners in South Rose Park were present to express their views on traffic pattern and appearance of the buildings. Their main concerns were the shopping center facing County Road 42 with the back of the center to their businesses and the accessibility to the center from Canada Avenue and Chippendale Avenue. Mr. Pink, architect, noted that the 151st Street entrance to the site is larger with a larger green area and the buildings are further apart to provide a more desirable and convenient entrance. Mr. Pink also stated that building the center more attractively towards County Road 42 and making the main entrance off 151st Street would benefit both the shopping center and other businesses on 151st Street. Johnson informed all present that Council is holding a hearing at 8:00 p.m. to consider preliminary approval for issuance of industrial development bonds. MOTION by Smith to approve the sketch plan and encourage the developers to proceed with plans required for Concept PUD review; Concept PUD approval to be based on favorable review of the following: 1. Traffic and parking analysis 2. Site utility and grading plans 3. Landscape plans 4. Building design, layout and appearance. a Second by Toombs. Ayes 3, Nays 0. Abstain: Ped (because of potential conflict of interest). REGULAR MEETING MINUTES August 20, 1985 Page Two Gary Thorsen, North Star Service Station, was present to request approval for the addition of a one stall car wash to be located to the west of the existing building. Stacking lanes for the automatic car wash will be added as part of the improvement which will not affect present parking. Mr. Thorsen noted that the entrance at the corner of Lower 147th Street West and South Robert Trail will be closed. There is also relocation of the trash enclosure to the north end of the proposed addition because of setback requirements from the propane tanks according to State Fire Code. Based upon 3,000 square feet of site area, shade tree requirements have not been met. A minimum of ten shade trees are needed on this site. MOTION by Toombs to approve the car wash addition, subject to the revisions noted and landscape additions necessary to meet shade tree requirements. Second by Ped. Ayes 4, Nays 0. Henry Broback, developer, was present to discuss his sketch plan for a 200 acre subdivision proposal located south and west of Valley Oak Addition. The plan consists of approximately 570 single family dwellings with a density of three per acre at an average lot size of 75'x 130'. Although this site is not presently in the 1990 urban service area, the Metro Waste Control Commission and Metropolitan Council have given preliminary approval for a gravity sewer connection in Section 31 to the metropolitan interceptor which is 1,000 feet west of the Rosemount border on 160th Street. However, public water is approximately a half mile away and the cost of providing both utilities to this development could be costly. Comments from the city engineer on the feasibility of providing public utilities to this site have not yet been received. Johnson also informed the commissioners that amendments to the comp plan would be necessary to rearrange the 1990 urban service area and land use designations for the approval of this subdivision. However, because of inactivity in other areas designated for public utilities, Johnson speculated the possibility of this rearrangement was realistic. Commissioner Ped excused himself from his chair at 6:40 p.m. The Planning Commission was in general agreement with the basic sketch plan and concept for subdivision as presented by Mr. Broback, but withheld any action subject to engineer's comments. Chairman Smith suggested that final recommendation on the zoning ordinance revisions be presented to Council by September 17, 1985. Johnson recommended an in depth discussion of the Conditional Use Permit section of the revised ordinance at the next regular meeting. MOTION by Toombs to adjourn. Second by Smith.

Chairman Smith requested that discussion of the revised zoning ordinance be delayed until general business matters were completed. Johnson informed the commissioners that a public hearing has been scheduled for September 17, 1985 at 6:00 p.m. as requested by Dean an Bernice Falls for a variance to waive requirements for non conforming uses. Steve Broback, Parkview, Inc., was present for discussion of O'Leary's Hills Second Addition. This addition consists of a one block extension of 155th Street to the west of the first addition and includes 25 single family lots with an average lot area of 11,606 square feet. Concern for elevations and back yard drainage systems was expressed by the Commission. Johnson noted that comments have not yet been received from the city engineer who should be able to recommend an alternative drainage system. Mr. Broback informed the Commission that the deep depression in phase 2 of O'Leary's Hills was caused by the use of the soil as a borrow pit for O'Leary's Hills First Addition. Johnson noted a borrow pit was shown to the north of the 2nd Addition, and this approach to grading in each addition is unacceptable. The concept plan for the entire 80 -acre parcel was discussed. It was recommended that the 2 -acre, exception which includes the original farmstead and farm buildings, be eliminated and the 80 -acre concept plan be redrawn to include the farm site as lots. The Commission also requested an approximate timetable for the staging of all additions in the concept plan. Comments from the city engineer are still necessary to determine if street layout is consistent with future utility corridors before approval of the preliminary plat. Johnson recommended that a grading plan for the entire parcel be prepared prior to final plat review. A site plan for a portable classroom to be located to the north of the Rosemount Elementary School and west of an existing portable classroom was reviewed. Access to the existing buildings is gained by sidewalks; however, there are no provisions for sidewalk access to the proposed building. It was recommended that the plan be approved subject to all weather access provisions and normal review by the building official.

Johnson informed the Commission of a Special Meeting that Council held on September 10, 1985 for the presentation by architects for proposals for a new city hall to be located on the MnDOT site or an addition to the existing City Hall. This project is contingent upon favorable response of the public as it will be put on the November 5, 1985 ballot as a referendum vote. The proposed new structure would include both police and administrative offices. An updated phasing schedule and concept plan to incorporate the farmstead as single family lots for O'Leary's Hills was presented to the Commission. MOTION by Toombs to recommend approval of the O'Leary's Hills concept PUD and preliminary plat subject to city engineer's comments and receipt of a final approved grading plan. Second by Ped. Ayes 3, Nays 0. Comments received from Steve Campbell, City Engineer, revealed extraordinary core facility costs to serve the Gergen farm. This information has been forwarded to the City Council and the Rosemount Development Company for their review and decision as to whether to continue plans for this proposed development. John Shardlow, consultant and representative for Chicago Northwestern Railroad, and James Heidkamp, Regional Manager for Real Estate and Industrial Development for the railroad, were present for discussion of a proposed automobile unloading facility to be located on the Kane Farm, east of Biscayne Avenue and north of County Road 42. Commission Chairman Smith took his chair at 5:45 p.m. A slide presentation was given showing a similar facility, as an example of what the site would look like and the activities that take place. Mr. Heidkamp noted that the railroad has an option on the 226 acre site, with roughly half of the property to be occupied by this operation. Johnson informed the Commission that the property is presently zoned Agriculture and designated as both residential and agriculture in the comp plan, therefore, a rezoning and an amendment to the comp plan would be necessary to allow this proposal. Chairman Smith recessed the Regular Meeting and opened the Board of Appeals and Adjustments to conduct a public hearing at 6:00 p.m. REGULAR MEETING MINUTES September 17, 1985 Page Two Johnson had in his possession Affidavits of Publication and Mailing Hearing Notice for the Falls request for variance to restrictions for improvements of a non conforming use. Bernice Falls, 13836 South Robert Trail, was present to request approval for a building permit to replace an existing regular window with a bay window in her mobile home. The mobile home is a legal non conforming use. Improvements to non conforming uses are limited to routine maintenance and repairs. Johnson informed the Board of the building official's concern for the lack of structural support in the mobile home for an improvement of this type. The fact that Mrs. Falls states the reason for the addition of the bay window for the purpose of additional seating space only increases the building official's concern of the support issue. The Board informed Mrs. Falls that ordinance requirements permit variances only if a hardship is evident, exceptions or extraordinary circumstances are present and denial of the variance would deprive the applicant of the use and enjoyment of his /her property in a manner similar to other owners in the same district. All three of these conditions must be met for variance approval. MOTION by Smith to deny the variance request of Mrs. Dean Falls because of the building official's comments and concern for structural support and the ordinance requirements have not been found that are necessary for variance 1111 approval. Second by Ped. Ayes 4, Nays 0. Chairman Smith closed the public hearing and Board of Appeals and Adjustments and reconvened the Regular Planning Commission Meeting at 6 :20 p.m. Discussion of the Chicago Northwestern Railroad unloading facility resumed. Mr. Heidkamp and Mr. Shardlow noted that the site will be fenced with 24 -hour security. They also answered questions regarding the impact on contiguous single family property, noise levels, traffic generated and the possibility of other industrially zoned locations for this proposed use.

Also present was Dean Johnson, Planning Director. MOTION by Ellingson to approve the September 17, 1985 Regular Meeting Minutes as printed. Second by Cunningham. Ayes 5, Nays 0. Items added to the Agenda: 3d. David and Pamela Clarke Variance Hearing Set; 5b. Pole Building Permit Request White Lake Acres. Johnson noted that Council has set a public hearing at 8 :00 p.m., October 15, 1985 to consider an amendment to the Comprehensive Guide Plan. The amendment, if approved, would effect the location of the Urban Service Area and the redesignation of land uses from Agriculture and Residential to Industrial as requested by the Chicago Northwestern Railroad loading facility proposal. Discussion of wood storage and wood sales on agricultural property in response to recent complaints on a particular property revealed that the present ordinance does not address wood piles in any district. However, the sale of firewood would come under the heading of home occupations which is allowed in Agriculture districts. The individual in question takes orders and delivers the wood, therefore, there are no retail sales on the property. The burden of proof lays fully on the City as to whether the products sold are at least in part raised on the premises. Johnson noted that the degree of ordinance violation must be considered because of the unavailability of time to pursue such violations. The more flagrant the violation and the more citizens affected by a violation would take precedent over minor violations. The Commission made no recommendations on the issue. Johnson informed the Commission of a public hearing to be held October 15, 1985 at 6:00 p.m. to consider a variance to permit a private septic system on less than 21 acres as requested by David and Pamela Clarke. The parcel is located in Birchview Terrace and is a legal lot of record. Zoning ordinance revisions discussion included changing the minimum site area for junk yards from one acre to five acres and a general overview of the conditional use permit system. Johnson opened discussion on land use regarding the Chicago Northwestern plan amendment request, asking the Planning Commission to assess appropriate land uses and where they feel the pattern of development is growing in Rosemount. Although the Commission agreed that this particular site may not be desirable as an R -1 District because of the railroad tracks and being in close proximity to a major highway (CR 42) they expressed their concerns for this type of industrial activity. A recommendation on land use will be made to 411 Council at the next regular meeting. REGULAR MEETING MINUTES October 1, 1985 Page Two Frances Kane, owner of Lot 1, School Addition, has requested a lot. division to deed the east six feet of her property to St. Joseph's Church. The property has been used as a driveway for the church for many years. Johnson noted that while he has no objections to the lot division he does, however, feel that other issues should be resolved. The school and church also appear to be occupying a strip of land known as Lot A, School Addition which is owned by Hubert Geraghty. Possibly this would be the time to initiate action to change ownership. Also, there are one or two lots who use the church driveway for access to their property and now would be the time to look into whether the appropriate easements are recorded. MOTION by Toombs to recommend approval of the lot division as requested by Frances Kane, subject to the Council's review of the two issues noted. Second by Ellingson. Ayes 5, Nays 0. Patrick Neisius, 12525 Biscayne Avenue West, has requested a building permit for a 67'x 48' pole building for the purpose of storing his semi -truck and trailer as well as other personal equipment. Because of the extraordinary size and taking into consideration the equipment intended for storage, the Commission surmised that a building of approximately 60'x 32' would be a more reasonable size and ample enough to accommodate the intended use. The Commission agreed, based on the information submitted by Mr. Neisius, such use is a home occupation. MOTION by Ellingson to approve a building permit for Patrick Neisius for a pole building of a size of 60'x 32' or a combination not to exceed 2,000 square feet. Second by Smith. Ayes: Ellingson, Smith, Ped, Cunningham. Nays: Toombs. MOTION by Smith to adjourn. Second by Cunningham.

Also present was Dean Johnson, Planning Director. MOTION by Ellingson to approve the October 1, 1985 Regular Meeting Minutes as printed. Second by Toombs. Ayes 4, Nays 0. Johnson informed the Commission of Council action to accept the architectural concept and the awarding of the new city hall contract to Fridlund Architects subject to favorable vote by the public on November 6, 1985. Commissioner Ped took his chair at 5:05 p.m. Chairman Smith requested discussion of the zoning ordinance revisions be delayed until general business items were completed. Dean Johnson acknowledged an application for Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment by Chicago Northwestern Railroad Company to change land use designations from AG Agriculture and Mid density Residential to Industrial for approximately 223 acres located in the NW 1/2 of Section 28, lying south of the existing railroad right -of- way, north of County Road 42 and east of the Dakota County maintenance facility and the existing single family dwellings which front on 145th Street West. Present to discuss the request for amendment to the comp plan and an automobile unloading facility as proposed by Chicago Northwestern Railroad were C.J. Burger, Assistant Vice President, J.E. Terbell, Assistant Division Manager, T.F. Murphy, Terminal Superintendent, R.G. Gigear, Project Manager, J.W. Heidkamp, Real Estate, F.M. Jenko, Market Manager, J.R. Schmidt, Attorney and John Shardlow and Bob McFarlin, consultants. Mr. Shardlow expressed the railroad company's support for the amendment to the comp plan. A slide presentation exhibited surrounding land uses and principal development of orderly growth for single family use to the west of Highway 3. The subject property is located north of County Road 42 across from the U of M Rosemount Research Center; the railroad tracks along the northern border; and the Dakota County Maintenance facility to the west. This forms a natural barrier to logical flow of single family residential development. Mr. Shardlow also discussed the installation of a trunk sewer connection to the Metropolitan interceptor which would be constructed and funded entirely by Chicago Northwestern Railroad if their project is approved. Johnson noted that this could open up approximately 1,500 acres north of the railroad tracks, which is a more desirable single family dwelling area. He also noted that this trunk extension, north of the tracks, is the first segment of the "Brockway draw" trunk sewer district, which has been on the drawing board for more than 10 years. Chairman Smith recessed the Regular Meeting and opened the Board of Appeals and Adjustments to conduct a public hearing at 6:00 p.m. Johnson had in his possession Affidavits of Publication and Mailing Hearing Notice for variance to minimum lot area requirements for a private on -site sewer system. REGULAR MEETING MINUTES October 15, 1985 Page Two Pamela Clarke was present to discuss the variance for an on -site sewer system to be located at 24�, 135th Street West in Birchview Terrace. Johnson indicated that the 1.6 -acre parcel is a legal lot of record and the percolation test had been submitted to and accepted by the building official. There were no other comments on the variance petition. MOTION by Ellingson to approve the variance to minimum lot area requirements for a private on -site sewer system at 4265 Upper 135th Street West, as petitioned by David and Pamela Clarke. Second by Toombs. Ayes 5, Nays 0. Chairman Smith closed the public hearing and Board of Appeals and Adjustments and reconvened the Regular Planning Commission Meeting at 6:05 p.m. Further discussion with the Chicago Northwestern Railroad representatives included a description of the proposed operation, projected volume and hours of the operation, proposed buffer yard solution for the existing single family dwellings and local tax impacts, city costs and benefits of the proposed operation. MOTION by Smith recommending an amendment to the Comprehensive Guide Plan as requested to change subject property from AG Agriculture and Mid- density Residential to Industrial. Second by Ellingson. Ayes: Ellingson, Toombs, Smith, Cunningham. Nays: Ped. Motion carried. John Broback was present for discussion of the Chippendale Office Building Phase II site plan. The additional 3,200 square feet of office space presented is less than the formerly approved 4,280 square feet. Johnson noted that the plan is consistent with ordinance requirements as well as the original PUD. Although the landscape plan varies from the original plan, the revisions have met all requirements; however, existing landscaping on the site is insufficient. Chairman Smith also indicated the presence of an illegal temporary sign on the property. MOTION by Toombs to approve the Chippendale Office Building Phase II site plan, subject to detailed review by the building official and fire marshal; receipt of a performance bond to assure the required final landscaping; and the removal of a portable sign from the property before building permit issuance. Ayes 5, Nays 0. The Planning Director informed the Commission of the Lance Johnson mining operation in which Mr. Johnson has amended the mining permit by reassigning the pit operations from Danner Trucking to Bituminous Roadways, Inc. All documentation has been received from Bituminous Roadways, Inc. including a signed list of conditions, insurance and bonding that exceeds the mining permit term. Johnson informed the Commission of his appointment with Fred Hoisington, Hoisington Group, Inc., on October 16, 1985 to incorporate suggested changes and comments on the zoning ordinance revisions. MOTION by Smith to adjourn. Second by Ellingson.

Dakota Central Partnership Burma Avenue Extension Proposal. Johnson informed the Commission that he recently had the opportunity to view a facility in Chicago Heights similar to the one proposed by Chicago Northwestern. The mayor and city administrator also had the chance to see a similar operation in Portland, Oregon. All were generally impressed with appearance of the office and operation. Johnson noted that the next steps are to formalize information for comp plan amendment and submit for metro review, complete information for multi- agency review and review detailed site plans for the CNW facility and industrial park. City Council has approved the city engineer's revised feasibility study for II) providing trunk sewer service to Section 31. This proposal includes a lift station and forcemain along 160th Street and from there by gravity to the MWCC interceptor in Apple Valley. Estimated cost of this proposal is approximately half the original proposal which was an all gravity system. Notification from the developer for a timetable to proceed with the proposed development for Section 31 has not been received. Johnson informed the commissioners that he had met with Fred Hoisington to discuss the zoning ordinance revisions. Hoisington is in the process of simplifying the shoreland section and reviewing other suggested revisions. Gary Betters, Rosemount Saw Tool, has requested a building permit for a 16'x 40' pole building to be located behind his business at 14650 South Robert Trail. The purpose of the building is for equipment storage. There are no setback or dimensional issues, however, recent efforts to improve the downtown area have led to permit denial of steel buildings for other businesses in downtown Rosemount. The question of off street parking was also discussed. Mr. Betters has indicated in his letter that minimum investment is proposed because of lack of long range plans by the HRA for his property. Johnson noted that the HRA has not discussed this block as part of the downtown improvement project in any detail or even concept. No one was present, representing Rosemount Saw Tool. MOTION by Smith to deny the building permit as requested by Rosemount Saw Tool for a pole building on the basis that it represents potential intensification of the use of the property without addressing present parking inadequacy and because allowing such a structure would impede progress made in improving the downtown area. Second by Toombs. Ayes 4, Nays 0. PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING November 5, 1985 Page Two 110 Don Christenson, property owner, has requested a lot combination of Lots 4 and 5, Block 3, Oakwood Estates for the purpose of erecting a residence across the common lot line. These lots will function as one lot with an agreement permanently combining the lots as long as a structure exists. MOTION by Toombs recommending approval of the combination of Lots 4 and 5, Block 3, Oakwood Estates as requested. Second by Smith. Ayes 4, Nays 0. Chairman Smith inquired about a proposal from Dakota Central Partnership for the extension of Burma Avenue should the bond for a new City Hall be approved. Johnson advised the Commission that the presence of a lift station would cause a jog in the alignment, and the benefits of constructing a public street in this area were extremely questionable. Access to the City Hall site and hockey rinks can be accomplished by a simple driveway. MOTION by Toombs to adjourn. Second by Smith.

Also present was Dean Johnson, Planning Director. MOTION by Smith to approve the November 5, 1985 Regular Meeting Minutes as printed. Second by Cunningham. Ayes 3, Nays 0. Item added to the agenda: 3c. Chicago Northwestern Railroad Land Use Proposal. Johnson informed the Commission of two public hearings for variances scheduled for December 3, 1985 to begin at 6 :00 p.m. Chairman Smith postponed discussion of zoning ordinance revisions until other business items were completed. Many residents of the University Addition were present to inquire about the Chicago Northwestern Railroad proposal for an automobile unloading facility to be located near their subdivision. Chairman Smith briefly outlined the conditional recommendation by the Planning Commission on the guide plan redesignation of the property to Industrial, stating location of parcel, access to major transportation routes and a general overview of the projected growth for residential development in the City as a few of the factors leading to the recommendation. Johnson informed the group that a site plan and final details of the CNW proposal have not been received by the City; therefore, any information regarding particulars of the business activity and design of the facility were not available to the Commission at this time. He also noted that CNW must go through an environmental review process with numerous agencies before further approval would be considered by the City. Chairman Smith suggested that John Shardlow, consultant for CNW, arrange to meet with the group to discuss their concerns. Johnson agreed to contact Mr. Shardlow and add the University Addition to the mailing list for future public meetings regarding this project. Martin DesLauriers, representing Mary Ann Corrigan, presented a request to subdivide approximately 27 acres located between Dodd Road and TH3 across from Brockway Glass. The subdivision would result in five parcels in excess of five acres each with minimum 300 feet of frontage. The present zoning is Agriculture and would require a rezoning to Rural Residential. This zoning is consistent with surrounding uses. The City has taken it upon itself to also include in the rezoning a 4.9 acre parcel located north of the subject property on behalf of the owner. Requirements for Rural Residential zoning have been met. Because of future MSA plans for the alignment of Connemara Trail, a collector street, Johnson recommended a 100' easement be dedicated on the south edge of the southerly lot for street and trail purposes. Mrs. Corrigan requested that the public record show her cooperation with the City in furnishing an extraordinary easement, and to take this into consideration if any assessments are contemplated in the future. Johnson indicated the City would vacate this portion of the easement, if the excess 20 feet were not needed in the future. REGULAR MEETING MINUTES November 19, 1985 Page Two Johnson noted that Mrs. Corrigan has two requests at this time. One is for overall approval of the lot divisions and rezoning. The other is to grant immediate approval of the split of the northerly lot, which includes the farm buildings,due to a pending sale of this property before the rezoning hearing can be held. Johnson informed the Commission of a letter signed by Mrs. Corrigan indicating that she will commit to the rezoning of the parcel and the remaining lot divisions, according to the survey submitted. MOTION by Ellingson recommending approval of the lot division described as Parcel A, contingent upon receipt of a 100' street easement to the City, in recordable form, on the southern edge of the property; and further recommending a hearing date be set for the rezoning of the Corrigan and Jacobsen properties from Agriculture to Rural Residential and remaining lot divisions as requested. Second by Smith. Ayes 3, Nays 0. Johnson distributed site plans for the new city hall to be reviewed at the next regular meeting.

The public hearing will be held December 17, 1985 at 8 :05 p.m. It was agreed upon, because of an anticipated short agenda, to invite spouses to the December 17, 1985 Regular Meeting and, upon adjournment, depart to Marc's for a holiday gathering. Commissioner Ped took his chair at 5:10 p.m. Johnson reminded the Commission of a public hearing at 8:00 p.m. that same evening for the request for lot divisions and rezoning of the balance of the Mary Ann Corrigan property. MOTION by Ped to recommend approval of the rezoning and lot divisions as submitted. Second by Smith. Ayes 4, Nays 0. Discussion of the preliminary site plan for the new city hall included parking requirements, setbacks and access to the site. All ordinance requirements have been met. A general discussion of floor plans, mechanical /ventilation and building access followed. A preliminary plat has been submitted for Jim Evenson's properties located on South Robert Trail. The purpose of the plat is to combine and adjust existing parcel descriptions.

REGULAR PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING December 3, 1985 Page Two Chairman Smith recessed the Regular Planning Commission Meeting and opened the scheduled meeting of the Board of Appeals and Adjustments at 6:00 p.m. to conduct two public hearings. Johnson had in his possession Affidavits of Publication and Mailed Hearing Notice for the James R. Carlisle request for variance to side yard setback. Mr. Carlisle, property owner, and Chuck Novak, architect and representative for Mr. Carlisle, were present to request a variance to allow a driveway setback of four feet and a driveway approach to the garage behind his home with no setback. Mr. Novak explained that a garage has been constructed behind the Carlisle home at the same 16' setback as the existing home to provide for handicapped access to the home. The additional driveway surface is needed for vehicle maneuverability in approaching the garage. Johnson indicated that this is an unusual circumstance wherein the placement of the garage, which included the handicapped ramp, was dictated by the existing home. The handicapped ramp is a physical, permanent improvement to the property; therefore, the hardship can be interpreted as property related. Chairman Smith closed the public hearing for James R. Carlisle and opened the public hearing for the Leo V. O'Neill request for variance to front yard setback. Johnson had in his possession Affidavits of Publication and Mailed Hearing Notice. Johnson explained that Mr. O'Neill's property at 4145 Upper 145th Street West was unique in that it has triple frontage. Mr. O'Neill wants to replace an existing garage which currently encroaches six feet into the front yard with a larger structure which would encroach eight feet into the required 30 feet setback. The garage accesses onto Dallara Avenue West. A plat map showed other more flagrant exceptions on corner lots in the immediate area. Richard Dorniden, property owner in the immediate vicinity, voiced his concern over an already existing snow drift condition when entering the addition from 145th Street onto Dallara Avenue. However, upon learning that the variance was for only two more feet, he concluded that this probably would not enhance the problem. There were no other persons present for comment. Chairman Smith closed the public hearing on the O'Neill variance. He asked if there were any additional comments on the two hearings. There was no further discussion. MOTION by Toombs to approve the variance of James R. Carlisle as requested. Second by Ped. Ayes 4, Nays 0. MOTION by Smith to approve the variance request of Leo V. O'Neill, with a setback of not less than 22 feet, based on the setback exceptions already in that area and because of a hardship of the property with triple frontage; further, to approve the building permit for a conventional garage to be constructed to compliment the primary structure on the property.

Also present was Dean Johnson, Planning Director, and Vernon Napper, 1986 Councilperson elect. MOTION by Cunningham to approve the December 3, 1985 Regular Meeting Minutes as printed. Second by Smith. Ayes 3, Nays 0. Johnson announced the City Council has set a public hearing at 8:00 p.m., January 21, 1986, for the Rosemount Redevelopment Plan Modification III. The hearing for Evenson First Addition preliminary plat will follow immediately. The Planning Commission will make its formal recommendation to Council at the January 21 Regular Meeting. Johnson informed the Commission that he should be ready to present the final zoning ordinance revisions for review by the end of January, 1986. The City has been informed of the University's obligation to determine how to provide suitable water to the 26 residents with contaminated wells in eastern Rosemount. Johnson indicated he has provided the University with land use data and basic development policies established for the area. Vernon Napper has been the representative and spokesperson for the residents in the affected area. Mr. Napper provided the Commission with information he had regarding actions taken by the University to correct the problem to date. He also thanked the Commission for their interest in being kept informed on this issue. Johnson advised that a groundbreaking ceremony for the commercial portion of the Rosemount Plaza project has been scheduled for Thursday, December 19, 1985 at 10:30 a.m. and invited all who are able to attend. An unscheduled discussion was held on the City's position on the sale and issuance of revenue bonds for Koch Refining Company, precipitated by Leslie Davis, Earth Protectors, who was present in the audience. Mr. Davis questioned whether the City really understands what goes on at the refinery and how the bonds are used. Johnson responded that the City is very well informed of the issues at the refinery and that the majority, if not all, of the bonds have been pollution control related. The fact that some of the improvements may result in increased efficiency and output can only be viewed as a double benefit to the community. MOTION by Smith to adjourn. Second by Cunningham.
