Page -3- November 15, 1978 Mr. Hill asked if there will be a problem with the new building being located so far off the street. Mr. Gourley said there would be no problem with the ordinance in this area. Mr. Gourley explained the purpose of the Special Use Permit and said if Mr. Klenck has it prepared properly and to the Clerk 10 days prior to the December 20, 1978 Board meeting this Board will consider it then. Roy Stanley - Variance Mr. Stanley had presented two xariances to split two lots in Sunset Oaks. Mr. Hill cal- culated each new lot would be one plus acres and have adequate frontages. Mr. Gourley noted the fee paid was fgr two new lots and an additional $50.00 would be required since four new lots will be created. Mr. Bohjanen moved to recommend the Council approve these variances subject to receipt of the additional $50.00. Mr. Reinert seconded the motion. Motion declared passed. Mar Don Homes Mar Don Homes had sent a concept drawing of a proposed retail sales and office building to the P & Z Board for their comments. They, plan to locate this proposed building on a commercial lot on Lake Drive in the Caroles Estates 11 plat. Mr. Gourley said he could not see any problem with the usage of this lot, however, it must meet setbacks, parking requirements etc. as required by ordinance. He asked the Clerk to inform Mar Don Homes of this. Mr. Hill suggested the Clerk ask Mar Don Homes to study the parking facilities better. Gene Mobley - Zoning Mr. Mobley explained that the property he owns at 6910 - 22nd Avenue is zoned commercial but limited to antiques sales and warehousing. He now plans to build a building to house mostly recreational vehicles ( he will rent spaces for the storage of these vehicles). It is strictly a cold storage building. Mr. McLean suggested that Mr. Mobley rezone to a classification that would be broad enough to cover any use he could anticipate in the future. He felt since this property is totally surrounded by the Acton Company industrial park there should be no problem rezoning this property. Mr. Gourley suggested rezonig to General Business. Mr. McLean told Mr. Mobley to pick up the material in the Clerks office and start the procedure. Mr. Mobley asked if he could speak to the Board a.,minute on another subject, holding ponds. Presently the Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD) is requiring holding ponds on new plats. He explained the problem that this is going to create in building up water eventually caus- ing the water to flow back into basements and causing massive soil contamination. Mr. Reinert explained that the RCWD is suppose to be a systems Board assisting Cities in their over all plan for water flow. Mr. Mobley said this is absolutely not done. There is not anyone on that Board that understands this problem and an overall system is not being dev- eloped and he wanted the P & Z Board and Council to be aware that a problem is being created. Mr. Reinert asked, in your dealing with the RCWD have they not looked at a total system? Mr. Mobley said absolutely not. Mr. McLean noted that the Clerk is presently trying to set up a meeting with the RCWD and
