(2) Sept. 18, 1974 Mr. L'Allier suggested to have the Engineer take a look at this problem. Mr. L'Allier moved to recommend to the Council that Mr. Olson contact Mr. Gotwald and that the best possible system be put in at the address. Seconded by Mr. Shearen. Mr. Olson said the system he is proposing to install has the approval of the Anoka Health Department and it is the best possible system that can be installed. What he wants is a letter from the City that this system will pass the plumbing inspection. Mr. L'Allier withdrew his motion since Mr. Olson is asking for is the approval. Mr. L'Allier moved to have the Clerk contact the Anoka Health Department for a letter of approval on the proposed system and if it meets with their approval, then it would be approved by the City. Seconded by Mr. Sheeran. Motion carried. 14r. Charles Nelson was still not in attendance, but the rezoning hearing was called to order at 8:40 p.m. mt . Locher read the mailing list and the legal description of the property involved. Nr. Nelson is requesting that the 300 foot strip along the East side of Highway #8 that is zoned commercial be rezoned to residential. Mr. Karth asked if there was anyone present who objected to this rezoning. One lady from the audience objected but gave no reason. Another lady was concerned .bout the number of homes to be built in the plat and the impact this would have on the school system. The size of the lot was questioned. One lady asked how building pe-tnits could be issued on these lots when they were less that the 211 acres required by the City Ordinances. Mr. Karth told her that the 21 acre requirement is only for unplatted land and does not apply to platted areas. She wondered if this plat would speed up the installation of water and sewer. She asked when water and sewer would be installed in that area. Mr. Karth said there is no plans for water and sewer in that area at the present time and he had no way of knowing when these utilities would be installed. Another lady asked if this plat would have a central water system or would there be pry vate wells? Karth said he did not know. This sort of information would be discussed at the -:, .rings for the plat. This hearing is only to consider the rezoning of the cymnercial part of the land to residential. This request for the elimination of the commercial zoning is to protect a residential area. Mt. Shearen moved to recommend to the Council approval of this rezoning request. Seconded by Mr. Hill. Motion carried.
