It was agreed upon by Commission members that the merits of creating an additional residential district requiring larger lot sizes in areas served by utilities will be further discussed at the August 4th meeting. Chairman Toombs suspended ordinance discussion to accommodate those present in the audience regarding agenda item number 4d. Palmer Peterson, Bituminous Roadways, Inc., presented the Commission with a request for mining permit renewal for a 154 -acre site located in the southwest 1/4 of Section 14, formerly held by Hardrives, Inc. on property owned by J.E. Parranto Associates, Inc. Contiguous property, owned by Lance Johnson, is also presently being mined by Bituminous Roadways.

Discussion resumed on the proposed zoning ordinance with Assistant Planner Wozniak outlining added district definitions to accommodate present housing markets. Wozniak also noted new commercial districts to further define existing commercial areas. The Commission discussed changes and recommendations. Wozniak informed the Commission of a public hearing to be held August 4, 1987 at 6:00 p.m. to consider a variance to minimum height requirements in the AG Agriculture District to accommodate a 200 -foot radio tower. Wozniak also advised the Commission of a public hearing scheduled for the PUD and rezoning for Wensmann Addition Phase 1 to be held by Council on August 4, 1987.

Also present was Mike Wozniak, Assistant Planner. MOTION by Huntington to approve the July 21, 1987 Regular Meeting Minutes as printed. Second by Meyer. Ayes 5, Nays 0. Assistant Planner Wozniak discussed with the Commission the creation of an additional residential district to be included in the proposed zoning ordinance as discussed at the previous meeting. The Commission agreed that the concept of larger lots would have less environmental impact wherein developers would take advantage of amenities of the property such as trees, ponds and topographical relief. Larger lots in sewered districts would also create greater diversity in housing because developers would be more likely to build higher priced homes for the "step up home" market. After discussion and research, including review of tables of area communities, Planning Staff is recommending the creation of a new residential district with a minimum lot size of 22,000 square feet with a minimum frontage of 115 feet. Wozniak stated that further study of property in Rosemount is needed before recommendation of which land would be conducive to this type residential district. Chairman Toombs deferred discussion of Sections 7 and 8 of the proposed zoning ordinance until all other business items were completed. Mr. and Mrs. Herb Wensmann, developers, were present to request concept PUD and preliminary plat approval of Wensmann Addition, which consists of 206 single family lots to be situated south of County Road 42 just west of the O'Leary's Hills development. The final plat for the first phase of Wensmann Addition was also presented for final plat approval. Discussion of the concept PUD included the requirement for trail easements throughout the plat and a recommendation to the developers to purchase additional property to eliminate uneven site boundary lines and, therefore, facilitate more acceptable lot configurations. Mr. Wensmann stated he is willing to comply with the suggested modi fications. Wozniak informed the Commission that the final plat for Wensmann Addition (First Phase) is in conformance with ordinance requirements. MOTION by Toombs to recommend approval of Wensmann Addition PUD concept plan and preliminary plat subject to the following: 1) easement for pedestrian access to the park (southeast corner of site) from the west, 2) trail easements provided along the two most significant east -west streets, 3) the purchase of additional property to eliminate irregular site boundary on the north portion of site, 4) the connection of three cul -de -sacs on the west end of site into a loop drive to facilitate improved vehicular circulation, and 5) the reconfiguration of irregular (pie- shaped) lots.

Community Development Director Dean Johnson arrived at 5:20 p.m. Mike McDonough, Sunrise Builder Supply Inc., presented a 5 -year phasing site plan for the expansion and improvement of his business site located at 14000 South Robert Trail. Planning Commission and staff discussion indicated that more details were needed on the improvement and treatment of existing as well as future structures. Concern was expressed for the use of corrugated steel throughout the buildings when past criteria for the treatment of exterior commercial buildings has been that 50% or more of the exterior surfaces are treated with materials other than steel. The major concern being that of setting a precedent for future commercial development. It was suggested that Mr. McDonough present a detailed plan describing exterior building treatment and landscaping intentions to soften impact and visibility of the steel buildings.

Chairman Toombs opened the Board of Appeals and Adjustments in order to hold a scheduled public hearing for variance to minimum height requirements. Chairman Toombs opened the public hearing at 6:00 p.m. for the variance request of National Exchange, Inc. Assistant Planner Wozniak had in his possession Affidavits of Publication and Mailing Hearing Notice. Don Gustafson and Roy Dahl, representatives for National Exchange, Inc., were present to request approval to erect a 200' radio communications tower on a 5 -acre leased parcel located at 12232 Akron Avenue presently zoned Agriculture Reserve. The maximum height allowed in the Agriculture District for a radio tower of this type is 75', therefore a 125' variance is requested. Mr. Gustafson advised the Board and those in attendance that this site was chosen because of the higher elevation to allow the radio communication waves to see over the horizon to another tower in the area noting that locating the tower further to the east on property zoned for industrial use would require additional height to the tower because the land slopes downward towards the river. When concern was expressed by those present, Mr. Gustafson assured them that this tower would not interfere with other communications such as TV or radio. Assistant Planner Wozniak informed the Board that staff has conferred with the city attorney and have been advised that under Chapter 473H of the Metropolitan Agricultural Preserves Act commercial uses are not permitted in the Agricultural Preserves District. Several property owners were present or had written to voice their objections to the tower being erected in this area stating that a structure such as this would discourage future low density subdivision development, the visibility to existing residential subdivisions, aesthetic concerns and the presence of restrictions such as pipelines and transmission lines already present on property in this area.

Wozniak reviewed with the Commission a building permit application from Koch Refining for a two story office and equipment monitoring building related to their expansion plans for the refinery which have been identified in an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). Staff review of the proposed building has identified no major concerns associated with the project. Commissioner Wippermann questioned how the City can become more involved in the review and regulation of any future Koch Refining expansion plans. With pollution issues so prevalent today Wippermann felt that the City should have more authority in the governing of any future expansion of Koch Refining. Wozniak explained that the request for a building permit for this structure is for the housing of monitoring equipment rather than production equipment. MOTION by Huntington to approve the building permit application for a office and equipment monitoring building as submitted by Koch Refining. Second by Toombs. Ayes: Hathaway, Huntington, Toombs, Meyer. Nays: Wippermann. Motion carried. Edmund and Elizabeth Dunn, property owners, have requested a metes and bounds division of property located north of Rosemount Hills Addition and south of County Road 38.

Second by Wippermann. Ayes 5, Nays 0. Chairman Toombs suspended the regular order of the Agenda to accommodate those present for discussion of a proposed golf course under agenda item 5a. Ray Rahn, developer, was present to answer questions regarding his proposal to construct a 18 -hole golf course on a 160 -acre parcel located between County Road 42 and 140th Street east of Highway 52. He is also proposing an additional 9 -hole regulation course to be added at a later date. Mr. Rahn stated there will be a minimal amount of grading adding that this would probably modify rather than cause any steep slopes, therefore drainage will not pose a problem. A total of 450 trees will be planted on the site at the rate of 150 /year for three years consisting of a mixture of hardwood and evergreen species. A clubhouse will also be constructed on the property. Wozniak noted that Planning Staff review of the project has identified no land use conflicts because the golf course will be open to the public, therefore it is a public or quasi public facility which is a permitted use in the Agriculture District. Johnson stated that the clubhouse is also permitted because it is an implied use of the golf course. There were several adjacent property owners present for discussion. MOTION by Wippermann to approve the site plan for a golf course as presented by Ray Rahn and approval of the issuance of an excavation permit. Second by Meyer. Ayes 5, Nays 0. Wozniak handed out a new draft of Sections 1 -4 and reviewed in detail definitions added to Section 4.9 regarding junked vehicles. He also reviewed with the Commission a 24 -hour parking ordinance adopted by Council to the City Code. Lengthy discussion was held on the adding of a new residential district to the sewered district identified as RE Residential Executive. Huntington cited that it is his opinion that it is unfair to property owners to restrict the development density selectively by only requiring larger lots in certain areas. Huntington went on to state that market conditions should be allowed to dictate the size of lots and the square footage of homes to be built upon them. He suggested that the most aesthetically pleasing areas of the City should not necessarily be set aside for the most expensive homes.

Also present was Michael Wozniak, Assistant Planner. MOTION by Meyer to approve the August 18, 1987 Regular Meeting Minutes as printed. Second by Huntington. Ayes 5, Nays 0. Discussion was held on Section 10 Sign Provisions of the proposed zoning ordinance. Assistant Planner Wozniak stated that principally square footage and height requirements remain the same as the existing ordinance citing only minor changes of added definitions and restrictions for portable, external and internal reader boards. A provision which allows of f- premise advertising signs strictly in the IG District has been added to the ordinance. This provision establishes a maximum size of 80 square feet and a maximum height of 20 feet. -It mandates 2,500 foot spacing between of f- premise advertising signs and restricts them from being Iocated within 500 feet from any residence, public or institutional use or municipal corporate limits. Wozniak introduced Michael Cronin, representative for Naegele Signs, who was present to discuss the prohibition of billboards in the present and proposed zoning ordinance. Mr. Cronin asked the Commission to reconsider allowing billboards in the City of Rosemount, stating his proposal for a sign area of 750 square feet, maximum height of 40 feet at 1500 foot intervals along Highway 52 and a maximum of 400 square feet and height of 30 feet for all other signs. He stated further that these signs be permitted by conditional use or special review. The area of interest to Naegele Signs was primarily along Highway 52 and the intersection of Highway 3 and County Road 42. General consensus of the Commission was to give consideration of the proposal for the appropriateness of such signs along Highway 52 with restrictions. Further discussion of sign provisions will continue at the next Regular Planning Commission Meeting. Wozniak stated that all the recommended changes for Wensmann Additions PUD have been incorporated and have met staff approval. It is expected that City Council will take final action on the Wensmann PUD and Wensmann Addition First Phase Final Plat at their September 1, 1987 Regular Meeting. The O'Leary's Hills Third Addition final plat was presented to the Commission for signatures. Wozniak stated that staff was in possession of an executed development contract and PUD agreement from the developers. Carrollton 2nd Addition preliminary plat for a 128 single family development located between County Road 42 and Dodd Boulevard was presented to the Planning Commission for review. Chairman Toombs recessed the Regular Planning Commission Meeting and opened the scheduled meeting of the Board of Appeals and Adjustments at 6:00 p.m. in order to conduct a public hearing. Regular Planning Commission Meeting September 1, 1987 Page Two Assistant Planner Wozniak had in his possession Affidavits of Publication and Mailed Hearing Notice for the request of Spear Construction for variance to rear yard setback. Wozniak explained to the Commission that Spear Construction is requesting a 12 foot variance to rear yard setback to allow a deck to project to within 13 feet of the rear property line at 4331 159th Court West. Ordinance requires a minimum 25 foot rear yard setback. Wozniak explained further that at the time of building permit review the deck was illustrated on the blueprint, but was not indicated on the site survey drawing. The infringement into the rear yard setback was discovered by the building inspector on routine building inspection. Upon review staff has noted that the subject structure sets on a cul -de -sac and homes which abut the property to the rear are set forward approximately 40 feet from their rear, property line. Staff does not find this to be a disruptive use acknowledging adequate structure separation and the restrictiveness of the home itself. Dean and Bonita Jacobson, 4338 158th Court West, located to the rear of the property were present and stated they had no problem with the requested variance. Chairman Toombs closed the public hearing at 6:15 p.m. MOTION by Huntington to approve the variance to rear yard setback as requested by Spear Construction on Lot 26, Block 1, West Ridge First Addition. Second by Meyer. Ayes: Hathaway, Huntington, Toombs and Meyer. Nays: Wippermann. III Chairman Toombs closed the meeting of the Board of Appeals and Adjustments and reopened the Regular Planning Commission Meeting. Discussion followed regarding the Carrollton 2nd Addition preliminary plat. Wozniak stated that, after several meetings with the developers, modifications have been made to the preliminary plat. Review of these revisions by staff has identified only minor concern for a berm along County Road 42 and the possibility of requiring an east /west trail to cross the subdivision. Wozniak stated that an EAW and Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment will be required for final approval.

Second by Meyer. Ayes 5, Nays 0. Chairman Toombs suspended the order of the Agenda to oblige those present for the zoning interpretation discussion. Discussion was held on the interpretation of the zoning ordinance and whether it allows a combination of a clubhouse /residence in the Agriculture District. Ray Rahn was present and submitted a request to locate his personal residence on the second floor of the proposed clubhouse for an approved golf course development east of Highway 52 between 140th Street and County Road 42. Mr. Rahn indicated his reasons for the request as being to deter vandalism and for convenience because of the long hours both weekdays and weekends that a golf course demands. Although the Agriculture District allows both single family residential and golf 410 courses the combination of a clubhouse, which is an incidental use to golf courses, and a single family residence as a combined use was discussed. Community Development Director Johnson stated that an interpretation of the zoning ordinance will set a precedent, but due to the unusual circumstances of this request, one that is not likely to reoccur. MOTION by Toombs to establish an interpretation of the zoning ordinance noting that both golf courses and single family residences are allowed in the Agriculture District, that a clubhouse is an incidental use of golf courses and, to clarify the ordinance further, a combination of a residence /clubhouse is allowed in the Agriculture District. Second by Wippermann. Ayes 5, Nays 0. The Commission reviewed a proposal to modify the current sign ordinance as proposed by staff. Specifically, to relax present standards to allow signs in excess of 80 square feet (billboards) along certain corridors within the city. Representatives from Naegele Sign Co., Michael Cronin and Jeff Brown, were present to request that larger signs be allowed along Highway 52 in the Industrial District. Wozniak and Johnson expressed concern for setting a double standard for signs allowed for businesses and off premise advertising. A concerted effort has been made by staff to maintain the integrity of the present ordinance, which has been in existence since 1972, to avoid such double standards and they questioned whether allowing excessive signs would serve the interests of local businesses. Regular Meeting Minutes September 15, 1987 Page Two 1111 Vernon Napper, 3405 145th Street East, stated that he owns and resides on property which is located along Highway 52. Mr. Napper indicated his opinion that billboards were undesirable and objected to the allowing of larger off premise advertising signs within the city. Mr. Napper stated further that, in his opinion a double standard would be set if the city were to allow billboards in eastern Rosemount and nowhere else. He urged the Commission to uphold the existing sign ordinance in an effort to preserve and promote the beauty of the city and to provide uniform sign laws for all businesses. MOTION by Wippermann that the sign regulations for the proposed zoning ordinance proceed as proposed by staff with an 80 square foot maximum sign size. Second by Meyer. Ayes: Hathaway, Toombs, Wippermann, Meyer. Nays: Huntington. Chairman Toombs recessed the Regular Planning Commission Meeting at 6:00 p.m, and opened the scheduled Board of Appeals and Adjustments in order to hold two scheduled public hearings. Assistant Planner Wozniak had in his possession Affidavits of Public and Mailed and Posted Hearing Notices for the variance requests of Gerald Burg and John Carol Beckman. Gerald Burg, 14875 Camfield Circle, was present to request an 8' variance to side yard setback requirements on Lot 1, Block 1, O'Leary's Hills Second Addition, a corner lot with frontage on 155th Street and proposed Shannon Parkway, to allow him to construct his residence with an attached 3 -car garage. Mr. Burg distributed copies of the lot survey and site plan and expressed that he felt there were excessive restrictions imposed on the 90'x 130' lot by easements and setback requirements which reduced the buildable area to only 37% of the total lot. Wozniak stated that the easements and setbacks for this lot are standard requirements for Planned Unit Development and that because the proposed home with the attached 3 -car garage cannot be accommodated by this lot does not preclude that a smaller structure cannot be built on this lot. Upon further review of the variance request the Board suggested that Mr. Burg investigate other lots that would accommodate this size structure. Steve Broback, developer, stated that this was the largest lot in O'Leary's Hills Second Addition. The Board was in agreement with staff that the hardship was not property related and stated their desire to avoid precedents and uphold ordinances. There were no further comments from the audience. Chairman Toombs closed the public hearing for Gerald Burg at 6:20 p.m. and opened the public hearing for John and Carol Beckman. John and Carol Beckman were present to request a variance for an on -site sewer system to be located on an approximate 1/2 -acre parcel at the intersection of 130th Street and 130th Way. Wozniak informed the Board that the parcel is a legal lot of record and that a private sewer system design, sketch and percolation test has been submitted and approved by the Building Official. There no other persons present for comment. Chairman Toombs closed the public hearing.

Second by Hathaway. Ayes 4, Nays 0. Commissioner Meyer took his chair at 5:05 p.m. Jim Bongers, 3796 125th Street West, is the owner of two contiguous parcels of land on 125th Street. Both parcels are less than 10 acres each and are zoned Agriculture. His residence is located on a 2 -acre parcel and a pole barn on an approximate 3 -acre parcel. There is evidence that the property was split around 1970; however, county records show that it wasn't recorded until 1978. Due to the assessments being imposed on both properties because of road improvements to County Road 38, Mr. Bongers requested a zoning interpretation to determine whether the 3 -acre lot is considered a legal lot of record and therefore eligible for the construction of a residence. Based on evidence provided by the original owners, the Linkert family, staff has determined that there is no reason to believe that the lot split was not created in good faith and within ordinance requirements that were in existence at that time and that the parcel should be considered a legal lot of record. MOTION by Huntington that the 3 -acre parcel be considered a legal lot of record and considered a buildable lot subject to current ordinance requirements for building permit approval. Second by Toombs. Ayes 5, Nays 0. Due to the full agenda and scheduled public hearings, Chairman Toombs postponed discussion of the proposed zoning ordinance regulations for Shoreland Overlay to the next Regular Planning Commission Meeting. A review of Carrollton 2nd Addition concept PUD and preliminary plat has been reviewed by Planning staff. The developers have agreed to recommended modifications which include trail alignments, park dedication and minor lot configurations which increased some 75' lot widths to 80' widths which results in an average lot width of approximately 80'. Assistant Planner Wozniak informed the Commission that an EAW has been published and distributed for 30 -day review and an amendment to the comprehensive guide plan applied for as directed by the Planning Commission at its last meeting.

Coast -to- Coast, located in the Rosemount Shopping Mall, has requested a building permit for expansion and improvement of its present site within the mall with minor modification to the exterior of the building. Copies of the plans were distributed for Planning Commission review. Building Official Ron Wasmund has worked with the applicants and has approved a plan which meets building code requirements and planning staff has reviewed and approved exterior treatment which includes the retainment of existing windows and the addition of awnings. MOTION by Toombs to approve the building permit request of Coast -to -Coast subject to building code compliance and planning staff recommendations. Second by Wippermann. Ayes 5, Nays 0. Jim Oberg, 12261 South Robert Trail, was present to request a building permit for a 36'x 64' utility storage building on his property. Although his 5 -acre parcel is zoned Agriculture, Mr. Oberg stated his reason for the structure as personal storage rather than an agricultural use Assistant Planner Wozniak stated that staff investigation of the site established that adequate screening exists with exception to the west where there is potential for future development. There was general agreement of the Planning Commission that exterior aesthetic treatment should be required, because of the extreme size of the structure. Mr. Oberg stated the metal building will match the residence in color and agreed to the Commission's` recommendations regarding additional screening, shingled roof and window requirements. MOTION by Toombs to approve a 36'x 64' pole building as requested by Jim Oberg subject to: 1) the addition of three windows on each 64' side; 2) a shingled roof; 3) evergreen plantings on the west side for additional screening. Second by Huntington. Ayes 5, Nays 0. Mr. Mrs. Ron Welvaert, 12086 Biscayne Avenue, were present to request a building permit for a 42' x 50' metal storage building on their 6.4 -acre property, zoned Rural Residential, for the use of personal storage. Planning Assistant Wozniak stated that presently the site is well screened except that the site is visible from Biscayne Avenue and the potential for visibility to the north is a reality should that property ever be developed. Due to the Rural Residential zoning of the property and the public's aversion to such metal structures, the Planning Commission was in general agreement that stricter requirements must be required for such structures to preserve the integrity of rural residential areas. Regular Meeting Minutes October 6, 1987 Page Three Further discussion ensued with recommendations by the Planning Commission for a shingled roof, the addition of exterior windows and additional screening. The Commission noted that because of the residential zoning of the property and the frequent requests for over -sized buildings is a continuous concern. Mr. Welvaert stated he would return to the next regular meeting with his proposal for aesthetic treatment after consulting with his contractor on the possibility of incorporating the recommendations of the Commission. Chairman Toombs recessed the Regular Planning Commission Meeting and opened the Board of Appeals and Adjustments at 6:00 p.m. Chairman Toombs opened the public hearing for the request from Gene Stiles for variance to side yard setback. Wozniak had in his possession Affidavits of Publication and Mailed and Posted Hearing Notice. Gene Stiles, 3515 147th Street West, has petitioned for a 19.5' side yard variance in order to construct a 16'x 20' shed. This corner lot is located on the northwest corner of 147th Street and Chippendale Avenue, therefore a 30' setback is required from both streets. A significant drainage problem, on this lot prevents the structure from being located in the rear yard. A previous 15' variance was granted to Mr. Stiles in 1985; however, because the structure was never built it is necessary to reapply for the variance. Mr. Stiles stated that the proposed structure will be set 6 feet from the existing garage and partially blocked by 6' fence located along Chippendale Avenue, The continuous drainage problems which persists despite measures taken by both homeowner and city engineering staff was discussed and it was agreed upon by the Board that this could be considered a hardship of the property. However, it was the general consensus of the Board that a smaller variance could still accommodate the proposed structure by attaching it to the existing garage. Mr. Stiles agreed to the Board's recommendation. There were no other persons in the audience for comment. Chairman Toombs closed the Gene Stiles public hearing. MOTION by Toombs to approve a 16.5' variance for Lot 7, Block 3, Broback Tenth Addition as requested by Gene Stiles. Second by Huntington. Ayes: Hathaway, Huntington, Toombs, Wippermann. Nays: Meyer. Chairman Toombs opened the public hearing for the request of Michael Berg for variance to rear yard setback. Wozniak had in his possession Affidavits of Publication and Mailed and Posted Hearing Notice. Regular Meeting Minutes October 6, 1987 Page Four Mr. Michael Berg was present to request an 8' variance to rear yard setback to allow the construction of an 8'x 34' deck on the back of his home. The residence has not been constructed yet, however, Mr. Berg has already purchased the cul -de -sac lot, legally described as Lot 27, Block 4, Valley Oak Addition Replat. When the survey was submitted the structure was set back 25 feet from the rear lot line. This was necessary in order to accommodate the front yard 30' setback on an irregular shaped lot. However, the residence was not drawn with the attached deck which would be located within the rear yard setback. There were no other persons present for comment. Chairman Toombs closed the public hearing for the variance request of Michael Berg. MOTION by Toombs to approve an 8' rear yard setback variance for Lot 27, Block 4, Valley Oak Addition Replat as requested by Michael Berg because of the irregular shape of the lot and future lots located the rear of this property are deep and large rear yard separation is probable. Second by Wippermann. Ayes: Hathaway, Huntington, Toombs, Wippermann. Nays: Meyer. Chairman Toombs opened the public hearing for the appeal of Phillip Anderson for zoning ordinance interpretation. Wozniak had in his possession Affidavits of Publication and Mailed and Posted Hearing Notice. Phillip Anderson has appealed to the Board of Appeals and Adjustments for an interpretation of the zoning ordinance to allow the expansion of Phil's Body Shop, a non- conforming use in the Agriculture District. The request is for a 30'x 30' painting booth addition to the existing shop to accommodate a new piece of painting equipment. After lengthy discussion and review of the zoning ordinance, it was noted that there is no provision in the ordinance to allow expansion of ;a non conforming use It was further discussed that a variance of a non- conforming use is not permitted because no variance may allow a use which is not a permitted use in a particular zoning district. This expansion could only be allowed if there were a rezoning of the property to Commercial. Community Development Director Dean Johnson stated that past Commission have not been in favor of rezoning this property because it is not in a sewered district; a rezoning to Commercial would result in the existing residences becoming non conforming; and, further, many requirements could not be met because of the lack of adequate parking, lot coverage and setbacks. Spot zoning is also a concern since this property is surrounded by residential and agricultural use. It was discussed as to whether this could be considered a replacement of an existing use rather than an expansion. Mr. Norm Brucker, 12865 Bacardi Avenue, was present and stated if the expansion were for the body shop only he would have no problem with the request. However, because of the close relationship with the salvage business located on the same property, he would not be in favor because both businesses would be enhanced. There were no other persons present for comment. Chairman Toombs closed the public hearing for Phil's Body Shop. Regular Meeting Minutes October 6, 1987 Page Five MOTION by Wippermann to deny the building permit request of Phil's Body Shop for expansion based on: 1) the zoning ordinance does not allow expansion of a non- conforming use; and, 2) a variance cannot be allowed for a use which is not permitted in a particular district. Second by Meyer. Ayes: Hathaway, Wippermann, Meyer. Nays: Huntington, Toombs. Chairman Toombs closed the Board of Appeals and Adjustments and reopened the Regular Planning Commission Meeting at 7:10 p.m. Mr. and Mrs. Karnick have requested a combination of three 1/2 -acre contiguous lots located on 160th Street East. The request is to allow the Karnicks to construct a garage on one of the parcels which is not occupied with a residence. Combination of the three parcels will preclude further home construction on the two currently vacant lots.

Item added to the agenda: Item 3b.) Dale Agre Pole Building Permit Request Ordinance Interpretation. Acting Chairman Wippermann suspended the regular order of the agenda by moving discussion of the proposed zoning ordinance to the end of the meeting. Ron Welvaert was present to discuss details of a previously requested building permit for a 40'x 52' pole building to be located on his property at 12086 Biscayne Avenue. Present zoning of his 6.4 -acre parcel is Rural Residential. At the last meeting the Commission determined that improved exterior treatment is necessary for the proposed metal pole building to be consistent with requirements that have been a condition for approval on similar requests for oversized structures in residential as well as agriculture districts. The Commission had suggested a shingled roof, window treatment and plantings should be considered. The intent of requiring these exterior improvements is to make the appearance of the pole building more closely match the character of the residence. A representative of Morton Buildings presented the Commission with literature and exhibits of the proposed building noting that improvements on aesthetic treatment have been addressed by his company and similar companies compared to traditional metal buildings by incorporating the use of colored no -rust metal. He advised that present standards required minimum upkeep with attention to details which results in an improved final structural appearance. Wozniak advised that upon a study of the site he has determined that adequate screening is provided to the north and west by vegetation; however, the structure would still be visible from Biscayne Avenue. The general consensus of the Commission was that further aesthetic treatment of the structure should be required due to the residential zoning of the property and to maintain consistency with the general procedures they have been requiring of such structures in the past. MOTION by Wippermann to approve the request of Ron Welvaert for a 42'x 50' pole building permit subject to the addition of a shingled roof and adequate window treatment. Second by Meyer. Ayes 4, Nays 0. Dale Agre was present to request a building permit for a 40'x 64' pole building on his 2.5 -acre parcel to replace a structure which had blown down two years ago. The purpose of the building is for the keeping of livestock which, because of the agriculture use, would allow for less strict standards for aesthetic appearance. Wozniak advised that although the property is zoned agriculture a minimum of 20 acres is required for keeping of livestock. The past use of the property was a non conforming use and to allow the structure for that purpose would be a reinstitution of a non- conforming use. Regular Meeting Minutes October 20, 1987 Page Two Mr. Agre agreed to return to the next Planning Commission meeting with more details on the proposed structure and to re- evaluate its use. Action was tabled until these details are presented. Solberg Aggregate, 13245 Clayton Avenue, has submitted an application for a building permit for the construction of a 40'x 70' steel pole building to replace two existing buildings. The structure will house a private well and be used for cold equipment storage. The existing buildings will be removed. Minimum ordinance requirements have been met.

Wozniak reviewed with the Commission a request from Spectro Alloys for a 2,000 square foot addition to their existing office building located at 13220 Doyle Path. The proposed addition will match the existing concrete building. Minimum zoning ordinance requirements have been met. MOTION by Huntington to approve the building permit for an office addition to Spectro Alloys subject to building official plan review and approval.- Second by Hathaway. Ayes 4, Nays 0. Wozniak reviewed Sections 9, 13 and 14 of the proposed zoning ordinance. Section 9 Overlay Regulations establishes stricter standards for development around designated public waters. This section addresses State DNR regulations for identified protected waters and combines those regulations with county and city restrictions. Section 13 deals with Planned Unit Development (PUD) and remains similar to the existing ordinance though a clearer definition of purpose and procedures has been incorporated for simplicity. Section 14 addresses non conforming uses and offers the allowing of such uses by Conditional Use Permits (CUP). Lengthy discussion ensued as to whether the inclusion of this section is necessary in the zoning ordinance. Planning staff suggested that administrative processes involved in the issuance and monitoring of conditional uses are very time consuming and proposed that conditional uses might be better addressed if added and defined as an allowed use with restrictions within the section pertaining to district uses.

MOTION by Meyer to approve the October 20, 1987 Regular Meeting Minutes as printed. Second by Hathaway. Ayes 3, Nays 0. Assistant Planner Wozniak distributed copies of a draft concept for Section 7.2 of the proposed zoning ordinance which would deal specifically with dimensional standards for accessory structures. This ordinance would allow for stricter limitations of accessory buildings in the R -1, R -2 and proposed RE Districts. The Commission was in agreement that clarification of general guidelines for aesthetic treatment requirements should be included in this section of the ordinance, but felt that perhaps staff's proposal may be too restrictive in the RR AG Districts which may result in excessive variance requests. Wozniak was directed to further research these requirements and compare them with those of surrounding communities. The request from Dale Agre to construct an oversized accessory structure on his 2.5 -acre parcel located at 14175 Ehlers Path (County Road 38) was discussed. Mr. Agre was not in attendance to give specific details of his request nor has he formally submitted a building permit application. Mr. Agre has indicated to staf f that the proposed building will be used for agricultural purposes. It was the general consensus of the Commission that although Mr. Agre's property is zoned Agriculture the parcel does not meet minimum acreage requirements for the purpose of keeping livestock. Also, the agricultural activity of keeping cattle on the property had previously ceased and has not been in existence within the Iast six months, therefore the allowing of a typical pole building for that purpose would constitute the reinstating of a non conforming use. Mr. Agre will be invited to attend the next Commission meeting to outline details of his request. There was no action by the Commission. Jay Wicker, 2142 120th Street East, has submitted a permit application to construct a 40'x 64' metal pole building on his 12 -acre parcel for the purpose of storing agricultural equipment. Mr. Wicker's agricultural zoned property is an elongated strip (120'x 2,600') contiguous with residential property in Inver Grove Heights and would be visible to those residents. Once again staff has recommended that improved aesthetic treatment of oversized pole buildings on parcels less than 20 acres in the Ag District should be required so as not to encourage a non- conforming agricultural use of the property. No action was taken at this meeting. The Planning Assistant was directed to invite Mr. Wicker to the next meeting to discuss details and the purpose of the proposed pole building and, further, to submit a survey of the property showing location of the structure. The Commission also noted that the City of Inver Grove Heights should be advised of the request in order that their comments may be reviewed at the next meeting. Regular Meeting Minutes November 3, 1987 Page Two Ili Community Development Director Dean Johnson presented a concept for a city owned sign which would be available to developers of properties in Rosemount for the purpose of advertising their respective housing developments. The idea is to eliminate the requests from developers for numerous signs by having the ability to offer space to several developers and thereby limiting several off premise signs. Johnson advised this would be purely for directional purposes and would be offered as a public service. Commission members accepted this concept and directed staff to pursue details and present them to Commission and Council at their next meeting. MOTION by Hathaway to adjourn. Second by Meyer.

Chairman Toombs suspended the regular order of the agenda and began with New Business. Phil Bear, Rosemount Diecasting, was present to request a building permit for a 40'x 42' temporary metal pole building addition to an existing concrete office structure. Mr. Bear stated the purpose for the addition is a short -term solution for cold storage of equipment and materials currently stored outdoors. He added that, due to present growth of the company, they have plans for a 10,000 square foot office expansion in the spring of 1988 and replacement of the metal pole building addition in two to three years. Wozniak noted that there is an existing berm between Highway 55 and the plant that will partially screen this structure; however, because the addition does not match the existing structure he suggested that the Commission may want to require additional screening. Wozniak also informed the Commission that the temporary addition meets building code requirements for the Industrial District. Mr. Bear explained that the company is presently negotiating the purchase of the property and, upon ownership, plans are to clean up the site and future permanent additions will include site improvements such as landscaping and compatibility of additions with the existing structure.

The parcel is surrounded by property zoned agriculture with commercial property to the east and is presently not visible to other residences. Mr. Agre stated that besides the storage of farm equipment he also plans to house a limited number of cattle. The Commission informed Mr. Agre that the storing of livestock requires a minimum of 20 acres and therefore is not allowed by present ordinance requirements and to do so represents a gross infraction of Rosemount ordinance. MOTION by Huntington to approve the pole building permit as requested by Dale Agre for the storage of farm equipment and hay storage. Second by Toombs. Ayes: Huntington, Toombs.

Regular Meeting Minutes November 17, 1987 Page Two S Assistant Planner Wozniak suggested that the major issue is whether the Commission will require aesthetic improvements such a shingled roofs, window treatment, siding compatibility and /or landscaping on agricultural zoned property less than 20 acres in the interest of consistency and enforcement of similar future requests. Commissioner Huntington contended that the location of this proposed structure does not demand further screening. Mr. Agre was agreeable to improved aesthetic treatment of the pole building.

Assistant Planner Wozniak reviewed the results of an informal survey conducted by Building Inspector Paul Heimkes of requirements of surrounding communities for accessory structures. It was discovered that there is an average of =a 1,000 square foot maximum with several communities requiring some form of aesthetic treatment. Planning staff is proposing the following: 1) 150 square feet and less requires no further aesthetic treatment; 2) 1,000 square foot maximum in R -1, R -2 and proposed RE sewered districts with required aesthetic treatment (this would also be subject to a maximum lot coverage requirement); and 3) 1,200 square foot maximum with aesthetic requirements in the Rural Residential and Agriculture Districts for parcels less than 20 acres.

Assistant Planner Wozniak reported that park dedication fees will be included in building permits issued for commercial, industrial, agricultural, metes and bounds parcels as well as platted subdivision projects. However, the fee schedule allows for the dedication of land in lieu of park fees or combination of both in new subdivisions at the discretion of the City.
