Mrs. Schwankl seconded the motion. Motion carried. Mr. Rehbine was told this would be on the November 26, 1979 Council agenda. Mr. Gourley asked about the problem Mr. Rehbine was having on Knoll Drive regarding the side setback of a house. Mr. Rehbine said he is going to get the surveyor and Mr. Mobley out to the lot to see what can be done. Rezone - Land and Oaks, Inc. - Ken Tschida Mr. Gourley read the letter from Barton - Aschman regarding this property. Elmcrest Avenue was discussed. The point being the road would not support any industrial traffic. Mr. Heath questioned Bloch: #2 zoning. Mr. Tschida said whatever the Board prefers, either heavy or light industrial. One proposed use is a green house. Mr. Tschida said now they have a time problem.and did not realize there would be a problem with Elmcrest. Mr. Gourley read the letter from the Anoka County Highway Department. In regard to the paragraph regarding the additional 27' for street right-of-way the City policy is not to require the additional dedication but to require additional set backs. Mr. McLean said this gets away from the idea that the County will get this land free. Also the County does not have any otdinances or legislation to back up this requirement. Mr. McLean asked for topogs. There were none. Mr. Gourley referred to the planners letter regarding frontage road. Mr. Tschida said the County has no plans for one Mr. McLean said there remains the problem of Elmcrest Avenue, need for topogs and soil borings. Mr. Tschida said the soil borings are needed for the platting but not required for rezoning. Mr. Gourley said there is a request for rezoning not platting in the file. Mr. McLean read the requirement for light industrial and what operations were allowed in a light industrial area. It was noted that Acton is light industrial. Mr. Gourley said this could be sent on to the Planner and Engineer for more detail study or a recommendation for rezoning as presented on the map tonight with the understanding that a Special Use Permit is needed just for the land use. There was further discussion. Mr. Heath moved to recommend that Block #1 be rezoned General Business and Block #2 and #3 be rezoned light industrial. Mr. Gourley asked for withdrawal of the motion until after further discussion. Mr. Heath agreed. Mr. Gourley said the Palnner had addressed himself to setback requirements. Lot #1 was only 100' wide. Mr. McLean said that the industrial park was rezoned only after they had shown complete plans and prepared a package. Mr. Gourley said they had to put in some streets. Mr. Gourley said as stated before they can go two ways.
