Page -2- November 15, 1978 Mr. Reinert asked if this type of housing would be causing more density than townhouses? Mr. Blackbird said not much more since the developer must provide more streets and drive- ways. All other ordinance requirements would be complied with. Mr. Mattson said these are changing times and other types of housing are coming in. Mr. Gourley told Mr. Blackbird to submit some ,logical date to the City Engineer so he can recommend the Board change its ordinances regarding quads. North Northeast Reality should also submit information to indicate that the density will not be substantially larger than what is zoned for in this area proposed for quads. Dennis Cunningham - Variance Mr. Cunningham presented a variance to construct an assessory building before building the primiary building on property he owns on Cedar Street. He presented a drawing showing the layout of the horse barn, arena, house as well as other structures he plans to build in the future. Mr. McLean asked if the Clerk had pulled the file on Carriage House Stables so that the procedure for this installation could be handled in the same manner. She said she would. Mr. Bohjanen said the Board should carefully consider the commercial aspect of this operat- ion, adequate parking, adequate access, etc. A Special Use Permit would be needed. Mr. Gourley asked the Clerk to pull the file on Carriage House Stables and send copies of the file to the City Planner and all P & Z Board members to_,consider at the next Board meet.i.ng. Mr. Reinert asked Mr. Cunningham what his long range plans were. Mr. Cunningham explained within in the next three to five years he plans to build an indoor riding facility and the dwelling next spring.

He presently owns just under 10 acres of land and is trying to get more high ground by ponding and hauling fill dirt into his land. The land is useless for development but what he is doing is good for the wild life. He stated that at the time he started he did not know he needed permits from DNR, Rice Creek Water Shed District and the City. Mr. Mobley has informed him this summer the permits are required. he now plans to build a pole building for storage of two dump trucks,etc. He plans to locate the building far engough back on his property so as to be out of the sight of the neighbors. Mr. Mobley said the usage of the building is commercial and the P & Z Board would have to reveiw this request. Mr. McLean asked Mr. Mobley if there was any problem with the building itself. Mr. Mobley said none, however, the problem is usage of the land. Mr. Gourley explained since Mr. Klenck is not operating an agricwltural venture a Land Use Permit is not needed, however, a building permit is required. Permits are being obtained from the DNR and RCWD. A Special Use Permit will be needed to store heavy equipment in the new building.
