There were no changes to the agenda. Public Comment Gene Stiles, 3515 147 Street West, requested that work on his drainage issue in his backyard be stopped. Stiles did not agree with the statement he was asked to sign off on for the work. City Engineer Brotzler indicated he understood Stiles' wishes and would request further discussion. Stiles reported on the court case he had for a driveway parking issue. Stiles would like to address the whole problem with his drainage and not just have a temporary fix. Stiles additionally wanted to lodge a formal complaint against the Code Enforcement Officer. Stiles reported that he felt harassed by the officer and felt he was investigated to the extreme. Stiles stated that if the driveway was paved it would add to his drainage problem. He has lived with the threat of a 90 -day jail term or a $1000 fine since May. Stiles felt he was targeted unfairly and he noted he had never received any complaints from his neighbors. Council requested a staff report on this. Recognition of Bay & Bay Transfer Company, Inc.

Authorize Preparations of Feasibility Report — 2004 Street and Utility Reconstruction, A ROSEMOUNT CITY PROCEEDINGS REGULAR MEETING SEPTEMBER 16, 2003 Residential Planned Unit Development and Rezoning for Centex Homes City Planner Pearson reviewed the proposal for a Residential Mixed -Use Planned Unit Development (PUD) by Centex Homes on the property of Craig Minea and Patricia Kavorius. This would include four housing types with a total of 385 units. There would be 155 single- family homes, 60 row houses, 58 "Carriage" houses, and 112 "Georgetown" homes. The open space amounts to 30% of the site. The original farmstead location provides a tree buffer around the DNR pond. City Council at the last regular meeting had discussed several issues regarding the conditions required with the approval of this PUD. The developer also requested additional details within the conditions. These changes were addressed with the revised resolution. Upon review, Council requested the 558 square footage minimum for garages be included in condition 5.d. Mayor Droste mentioned he appreciated the memo regarding County Road 38 regarding Dakota County. Council Member Shoe - Corrigan noted she appreciated the drawings and would look forward to additional detail of the elevations. Steve Ach of Centex and his architect presented three different elevations which provided many variations. Ach noted the same plan would not be repeated and there would be 21 different floor plans. The average square footage is 2600 with gable treatments, masonry columns, porches, and the garages set back from the home front line for some models. Pearson pointed out that some information is included in exhibits attached to the PUD. Pearson reminded City Council that they will review this development again before the final plat is approved and that the variances regarding wetland setbacks are applied to two lots rather than "averaging" the setbacks. MOTION by DeBettignies to adopt A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE PRELIMINARY PLAT FOR CENTEX/MINEA PROPERTY subject to conditions with a change to 5.d. adding language for the 358 square foot minimum garage size.

Ayes: Strayton, DeBettignies, Shoe- Corrigan, Droste, Strayton. Nays: None. Motion carried. Zoning Text Amendment to BP -4 Business Park District City Planner Pearson received an application for rezoning for the Community of Hope Lutheran Church. The B -1 zoning does not provide for churches. Community of Hope Lutheran Church wishes to have a building that can be reconverted for business use after they have outgrown it. This location would be a phase in the growth of their membership. Pearson sited similar situations in neighboring communities. Staff suggested including churches in the B -4 allowable uses, enabling Hope Lutheran to build in this location. Council Member Strayton noted that right now all B -4 zoning is multiple residential housing and a church would seem to be an appropriate addition. Pastor Nilsen spoke in favor of this creative way to house 450 people per week. One 2 ROSEMOUNT CITY PROCEEDINGS REGULAR MEETING SEPTEMBER 16, 2003 example of this is River Valley Church in Apple Valley that utilizes an office- warehouse- showroom type of building north of CSAH 42 near Pilot Knob Road.
