(See page ~ for action on this matter) . AD informal hearing on ~he possible changing of the name of Brick Street to B;;'rchwood Drive was held at this time. JOHN WIRSIG, 524 South Erick Street stated that he objects to the proposed change - this is the original name of the street and is the location of a Brick Yard and could see no reason for making the char.ge wit~out Q logical reason. Mr. Marshall stated that the reason for the possible change was that ?Sople were getting lost in this area. MR. WIRSIG stated that there are other streets in the area that do not follow through with the same name and he requested thdt the name of Brick Street be retained. COUNCILMAN LAMMERS stated that the Council doesn't feel strongly one way or the other on the matter. MR.

(october 26. 1971 - continued) BUD JAGUSCH. 525 South Brick Street was opposed to the proposed change - he likes the name of Brick street, and wanted it to remain that way. It is too much effort and expense involved to make the change. MR. A. 8. JACKSON appeared before the council regarding the approval of a preliminary plat which was approved by the planning commission on October 4. 1971 and also approved by the Township planning Commission and the Township counciL He presented a legal description of the property to the City Coordinator as directed. This plat involves a' performance Bond for the black- topping after three homes are built in the plat. He has been working on this matter since 1962. On motion of Councilman Lammers, seconded by councilman Balfanz a resolution was introduced accepting Mr. Jackson's petition for the annexation of certain land to the City of Stillwater. (see resolutions). On motion of councilman wohlers, seconded by Councilman Peterson a resolution was introduced for the detachment of certain land from Stillwater. (see resolutions). REVISIONS IN THE PRELIMINARY PLAT OF WILD PINES -- MR. ORRIN THOMPSON explained that .they are willing to do whatever the council directs as far as oak Ridge Road is concerned - to offset it. dead end. or barricade it. MAYOR POWELL suggested that this possibly should be left up to the Public Safety Director and the PUblic Safety committee. MR. HARRY KLAASSEN. 2127 oak Ridge Road spoke in behalf of the citizens now residing on Oak Ridge Road and they feel that there should be a buffer zone of one family homes next to oak Ridge Road and that this street should be cul-de-saced - they do not want Oak Ridge Road to become an "1-94". They feel that the work in the Wild pines area should not be underway until the final plan is approved by the planning Commission and the city Counci. He further cLjected to the grading which was being carried on by the developer without a permit from the City. MR. ORRIN THOMPSON stated that the Preliminary the road~ and lut sizes. The over-all plat is can be assured of the over-all road patterns. will fit into the over-all preliminary plat. plat grants concept approval ~l approved so that the developer Each final plat as developed MR. MAP'SHALL stated that there was a delay in the final plat due to the annexation proceedings. The area that ~as proposed to be the first developed is still in the Township, so the developer has switched to an area within the City. He stated that the city Building code and in fact no Building Code requires the granting of permits for grading as long as there are no dangers to the adjoining property or affects the other property. He also stated that it was the intention of the council that the road was to be barricaded - a cul-de-sac was ruled O'lt at the last meeting_ ORRIN THOMPSON stated they needed information from the city officials as to the type of barricade and he was willing to meet with the city's Engineer and they will take care of it. MAYNARD NELSON, 2316 Oak Ridge Road stated that he wanted a place where he can raise his family. He questioned why this will be a better place for him to raise his family with this development. It is the time to take time to check back on the steps taken on this development. He stated that the council was elected to speak for the community and they are the citizens of this community and not the 700 people Mr. Thompsou will bring to Stillwater. He invited the Council to speak to the rest of the citizenry and seb what they think of such a development. and if they are like him. they won't want it. (' . . ..... . . . ~ .J (october 26, 1971 - continued) 169. ORRIN THOMPSON stated that maybe we have to share part of this area with the rest of the world and not have the attitude that I am here - everybody else out. MR. NELSON stated that there is no housing shortage in this area - there are homes that have bAen empty in this area for sometime. In response to a question from MR. DON MARTIN, 718 west Myrtle Street, MR.. THOMPSON stated that his homes cost between $26,500 and $40,000, and that they all have garages. The interest rate is 7% at this point. They are built right on the site and the average resale is seven to nine thousand above wta t they paid for them. MRS. DEAN SHA2ER, 210 Maryknoll Drive asked for assurance as a c~nservationi8t that they would not have any trouble with erosion in the area. MR. LEE ,mOMS. 420 Laurie Lane questioned if they put on a five ton axel load limit if this would not solve the problem. MR. KLAASEN stated that a cul-de-sac would enhance the Whole area and further stated the first proposal by Mr. Steindorff for this area was for development at a much slower rate, and much better a8 far as he was concerned. ROBERT STEINDORPF stated that two years ago he had no intention of selling his property and he wanted to develop the land. but he coulc:in1t make enough money last year to pay the taxes. He stated it has to be developed the way Mr. Thompson i. going to develop it. (The Mayor declared a recess from 8:4.0 to 8:50 P. M.) pollowing the recess Mayor powell read a letter from orrin Thompson, and also an opinion from Mr. Harold Kil'lllD8l, city Attorney. regarding the approval of the preliminary plat of wild pines. MR. ROBERT Ie GARRY asked whether or not the Council is going to have oak Ridge Road made into a cul-de-sac or not before the granting of any building permits for the l\lOdel homes. He stated that if we do have some adverse weather early this fall it is very possible that. collector street will not be finished this year. MAYC\R PONBLL stated that if Mr. Thompson canlt build a collector street then he will have to drive on a airt road for this construction work. We can put up a barricade. MR. II: GARRY felt that the City has given the citizens on oak Riage Road nothing and aidnlt feel that he was being unrealistic in his request since this street is a 31 foot street. which is the narrowest in the sub-aivision. They feel it i. important becaU8fl somebody is going to get hurt. especially in the winter time. and they are concerned with the safety of their children walking to school. MR. THOMPSON stated that they could put a three ton axel limit on this road, but Mayor powell stated that the simpliest thing is to put up a barricade. RAY OSTERBERG, 2007 West pine Street questioned why Oak Ridge Roaa couldn't be cul-de~saced and Mayor powell replied because of emergency YBhicles. Mr. osterberg felt that the residents on Oak Riage Road deserved the consideration of a cul-de-sac since there is another road to the South of this that could be used. MR. ROBERT Km'Z. 2309 oak Ridge Road stated that Mr. Nelson brought up a question about development - he did ask the council why they wanted a rapid development and requested an answer to this question. COUNCILMAN LAMMERS stated Bob McGarry's point is well taken. and felt that a decision would have to be made about Oak Ridge Road before the Council could give the building permits for the model homes. He was very much opposed to a permanent barricade. and felt the Council should look at an alternative means of keeping Oak Ridge Road a residential street. Regarding Mr. Nelson's question it was his opinion that in the last year he couldn1t recall anyone saying that they didn't want the development as such. The people were concerned with the traffic and the Town Houses in th~ir back yards. and ~ . . . 170 . (october 26, 1971 - continued) they repeated that they were not against the development. He felt that to the best of the council's ability they would assure these people that there is good planning. and that the development is properly done. They have confidence in Mr. Thompson and the CO'.1ncil's challenge is to insure proper development by proper planning. He felt that the problem of oak Ridge Road should be resolved first. MR. ORRIN THOMPSON suggested also that they could put in stop signs or make it a one-way street, if that is what the council ordered. CHIEF ABRAHAMSON stated that right now we are . talking about the unknown as far as traffic in this area and he felt that a one-way street is better than a barricade. COUNCIlMAN LAMMERS felt that there should be a five ton axel limit and then also put up a barricade. MR. J<<: GARRY stated that safety is one factor and they wanted some assurance there will be some type of controls. His primary concern was that the bilrcade be put up before the building permits are granted so that the construction equipMnt and building material trucks would not come in over oak Ridge Road. on motion of councilman Lanuners, .econded '::ty councilman Balfanz that buildiug permits be issued to Mr. Orrin Thompson for the construction of model homes in Wild pines only with the provision that. at the recommendation of the Direct.or of Public Safety, the superintendent of Public works, and Mr. Blliott, and the barricade on oak Ridge Road be con3tructed before the ~uilding permits are issued and that Oak Ridge Road be posted for a five tun axel limit. councilman Lanaers amended the above motion to include granting to Mr. Thompson a variance to the sub-division ordinance for tha purpose of building of model homes before the acceptance of the final plat. (councilman Peterson seconded the motion - all in favor).
