2- Mr. Locher reed from the Ordinance book s list of oommes'cial operations which could build without a permit and stated that spy other operations would have to apply for s speoiel use permit. Mr. Henricksen also questioned the ordinance relating to screening of commercial property. Mr. Looker said their was no regulation on this and a discus- sion ensued on landscaping of the property with the oonoensus being that the Engineer should work with Bolin on this. It was pointed out that the Engineer will have to approve soil tests for footings and drainega,etc., before a building permit is issued. Mr. HoLean moved to recommend to the Council that they rezone the land having the fol- lowing legal description: The South half of the Northwest quarter of the Southwest quarter (S1 /2 of NW 1/4 of SW 1/4); and the Southwest quarter of the Southwest quarter (SW 1/4 of SW 1/4), except that part thereof described as follows, to -wit: One square sore in the Southeast oorner of the Southwest quarter of the Southwest quarter SW 1/4 of SW 1/4), described as follows: Commencing at the Southeast corner of the Southwest quarter of Southwest quarter (SW 1/4 of SW 1/4) of Section 8, Township 31, Range 22, Anoka County, Minnesota; proceed thence North on the East line of said Southwest quarter of Southwest quarter (Si 1/4 of SW 1/4) for a distance of 208. 75 feet; and proceed thence West and parallel with the South line of said Southwest quarter of Southwest quarter (SW 1/4 of SW 1/4) for a distance of 208. 75 feet; and proceed thence South and parallel to the said East line of said Southwest quarter of Southwest quarter (SW 1/4 of SW/ 1/4) to the South line of said Southwest quarter of Southwest quarter S+N 1/4 of S* 1/4); and proceed thence East on said South line of said Southwest quarter of Southwest quarter (S# 1/4 of S* 1/4) to the point of commencement; all in Section 8, Township 31, Range 22, Anoka County, Minn, from residential to commercial and that they grant a special uee permit to Molin Conorett Produele Company with the stipulation that they work together with the Village Engineer to amines some screening of the plant, especially along the cemetery side, by the use of pie trees, etc... Seconded by Mr. Jester. Carried, Lt. Richard Stockatead, agent for DX Sunray Service Stations, was present to request rezoning of 1.7 acres for DX station at the corner of 35E and Main Street. This is a portion of a parcel owned by Marcel Rygg who was also present end indicated that he might be interested izrrezoning the entire parcel, which is about 30 acres. There was much discussion about too many stations at one intersection and too many service stations standing idle or the poor appearance of some stations. Mr. Stockstead and W. Rygg were informed that they would have to obtain a variance because the parcel for the station is less than 2 1/2 acres in size. They were told to appear before the Council and request a public hearing. Mr. Locher stated that they would not have to appear in person, only make a request of the Clerk so she could bring it up before the Council. Mr. Rebbein moved to notify the Council that the Board of Zoning is in favor of rezoning only the lot for the station and not the entire 30 -sore parcel. In this way the Council will have more avntrol over the type of businesses that may build on this land. Seconde' by Mr. MoLean. Caar:rired.
