POLKA DOT DAIRY, INC: REVIEW AND DISCUSS PROPOSAL TO REZONE A PARCEL OF PROPERTY FROM INDUSTRIAL TO COMMERCIAL Mr. Fuchs presented a new site plan showing the realignment of Orleans Street, from a 550 angle to a 750 angle of intersection onto County Highway 5. This realignment does not affect the layout of the development. The property wi II be serviced by city water but unti I the development of the Croix- gate property is determined they will not have city sewer. Cathy Buck made a motion to hold a public hearing for rezoning and Special Use Permit for Polka Dot Dairy, Inc. on November 14, 1979 at 7:00 P.M. Motion seconded. Motion carried. REVIEW AND DISCUSS PROPOSED RESU BDIVISION OF OUTLOT C AND D Dan reviewed the proposal of the resubdivision of Outlot D, which meets all of the minimum requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. Dan brought to the attention of the Committee that a park fee had originally been paid when the Industrial Park was first platted. For the resubdivision of Outlot D, the Committee may require Mr. Pauley to pay $762.00 park fees. Mr. Pauley presented his proposal to resubdivide Outlots C and D. The proposed lot sizes are 8/l0's of an acre to 2/3's of an acre. City sewer and water will service these lots. Cathy Buck made a motion to hold a public hearing on the resubdivision of Outlots e Joint Powers Minutes October 17, 1979 Page Two C and D at 7:30 P.M. on November 14,1979. Motion seconded. Motion carried. CONTINUE DISCUSSION ON LINQUIST/JOHNSON REZONING REQUEST Mr. Kimmel displayed a concept plan from linquist/Johnson showing six - 6 plex units. At this point they are requesting rezoning of the property and at a later date they may apply for a Special Use Permit for the multiple family units at which time a more detailed development plan will be submitted. Ann Bodlovick noted that if approval was given to the Augustine, Madsen and linquist/Johnson proposals for multiple family housing this would entail all of the multiple family housing allowed in the Industrial Park. Carl Dale recom- mended that the City Council not approve rezoning on any property until more detailed information is submitted. Mr. Dale stated he is in favor of the tran- sitional type zoning which tends to be compatable with the existing develop- ments. e Mrs. Buck asked if Mr. Dale had mentioned the additional traffic flow on Greeley Street. Mrs. Bodlovick spoke to Chuck Swanson, County Engineer, who stated Greeley Street is capable of handling 25,000 cars a day. The development on Greeley Street presents no problem regarding the extra traffic on Greeley Street. Cathy Buck expressed concern over the pattern being established in rezoning and wondered where it should end. The present trend in rezoning requests is to request a rezoning to the same use district that is adjacent the property concerned or to a use district that acts as a transitional use between two dif- ferent existing zoning districts. Ann Bodlovick feels the Committee should set up guidelines as far as rezoning is concerned and follow them. Ann Bodlovick stated they have not gotten a firm commitment from their City Council and unti I such time they are not to vote on rezoning. The public hearing on the Madsen and linquist/Johnson properties was held on September 19, 1979 therefore the Committee is required to make a deci- sion by the November meeting (within 60 days). Cathy asked if someone could be present at the next meeting to address the traffic generation on Greeley Street. Jack Anderson did a traffic study a few years ago when rezoning had not taken place. Ann Bodlovick suggested Carl Dale might have some input. The Committee asked Dan to check funding of the Joint Powers Committee by the Planning Department and investigate the e possibility of hiring Mr. Anderson to review his study as it applies today. J e Joint Powers Minutes 'October 17, 1979 Page Three Motion was made to place the linquist/Johnson rezoning request on the agenda of November 14, 1979. Motion seconded. Motion carried. MAX FREI CUP: REVIEW AND CONSIDER CUP FOR A SWIMMING POOL The Committee stated they approve the installation of a swimming pool on Mr. Frei1s property as long as it complies with the Zoning Ordinance. Dan stated he would check Mr. Freils site on Thursday, October 18, 1979. CONTINUE DISCUSSION ON ORVILLE MADSEN & SONS, INC., REZONING REQUEST Mr. Caldwell stated he has yet to receive the topography maps but he hopes to have them by the November meeting. Ann stated the City Counci I was concerned over the placement of the garages and street circulation as it affects emergency vehicle access, the maintenance of the private streets, and the number of garages per unit (the City prefers 1 covered and 1 uncovered garage per unit). e Mr. Caldwell explained a 1:1 ratio of garages is too intense. Mr. Caldwell explained there is a fee for rental of the garages which not everyone can af- ford. A I so, peop Ie may use the garages for storage. Mr. Lundquist stated there is no time limit in which a decision has to be made on either a rezoning request or a Special Use Permit. Doug stated the County Planning Commission has no time limit on decision making for rezon- ing requests but Special Use Permits have a 60 day limit in which to receive advise from the Board. Cathy Buck asked Mr. Caldwell for an extension to the 60 day limit on the Special Use Permit. Mr. Caldwell agreed. Motion was made to continue discussion on the November 14th meeting. Mo- tion seconded. Motion carried. Dan was asked to contact linqUist/Johnson and explain a decision does not have to be made on their rezoning request on the 14th of November but dis- cussion will continue on that date. GENERAL DISCUSSION Mr. McDonald suggested amending the Ordinances concerning townhouse devel- opments after a more detailed review of the proposals (Madsen, Linquist/Johnson) has taken place. e e Joint Powers Minutes October 17, 1979 Page Four Motion was made to hold a public hearing on the amendments on the November 14th meeting at 8:00 P.M. Motion seconded. Motion carried. Doug presented a proposal relative to bonding. Dan recommended adoption of the proposal. Mrs. Bodlovick made a motion to adopt the proposed amendments 505.09, 505.10, 505.11, 505.12, 506.23, 506.24, 506.25, 506.26 of the Zoning Ordinance as drafted by Doug Swenson, County Attorney.

Joint Powers Committee from time to time, upon written demand of the Joint Powers Comm i ttee . e Dan is recommending that Burger King replace the rock mulch with sod and place concrete curbing as requested by their Conditional Use Permit. The drainage was to be towards the front of their property, it is presently draining towards the back. Dan stated he is holding a $3,000 bond which is not enough to corr~ct the existing problems. Doug stated the Committee could get a court order to do as much work as possible with the $3,000 bond. The Committee asked Dan to review the situation with discussion continuing on the November 14th meeting. ADJOURNMENT Mrs. Bodlovick made a motion to adjourn the meeting. Motion seconded.
