2- <br />Mr. Summers said that a couple of things should be laid out on the table - -what you <br />are facing is not a problem of Lino Lakes. If your Village is going to develop, <br />it is going to get people. Mobile homes are here to stay unless the interest <br />rates drop on homes. He didn't think we were in a position to say we won't permit <br />trailer parks. <br />Mr. Menkveld mentioned that these lots will rent for $45 -$55 per month with an <br />extra charge of $10 for each additional child added to the family. He says that <br />these people move out of thr_ trailers when the children get of school age. <br />Questions were rased as to has this is possible when interest rates are so high, <br />money is tight, and the trailer has depreciated. <br />Mr. Jack Rector said he didn't see why we couldn't turn down their request. Mr. <br />McLean then asked if anybody was in favor cf trailer courts and one gentleman from <br />the audience said "yes" because people have to live and there aren't houses avail- <br />able in the Anoka area. We should have some feeling for people who can't afford <br />something better. Mr. Hill said that he didn't think anyone in the crowd was <br />against people living in trailers but there is likely to be at least two children <br />per family living in 24' wide homes which means the people here will be burdened <br />with a tax problem. <br />Mrs. Ahlman mentioned that every time she shows new proppective buyers our area <br />they ask what the population count is and then say "forget it ". <br />Mr. Karth made a motion that Planning & Zoning recommend to the Council that e <br />hearing be denied on the parcel of land lying to the south of Elm Street on the <br />same basis as denied previously and because the local land owners are against it. <br />Mr. Hill seconded this motion. Carried unanimously. <br />At this point, Mr. Summers said that Mr. Menkveld formally offers to meet with <br />the planning staff, the engineer and other Village officials prior to any such <br />hearings and to make any reasonable changes they might request in design and laycu& <br />of any of the projects. <br />Mr. Rehbein made a motion that Planning A Zoning recommend to the Council that we <br />have no hearing on the parcel of land lying to the south of Lilac Street immedi <br />ately adjacent to the west edge of the detention center property even though <br />the signature for 2/3 of the land had been obtained because of crowded schools era <br />no sewers. Mr. Kelling seconded this motion. Carried unanimously. <br />At 9:20 p.m. the parcel of land that lies on Hwy. 8 to the north of the 35W int ^r <br />change was discussed. Mr. Kelling mentioned that this piece straddles Hwy. 8 <br />and trailer courts would be on both sides. It was mentioned by Mr. Summers thec <br />they didn't have the signatures on the totel parcel but went a special use permit <br />on either side of Hwy. 8. <br />Mr. Karth said that we were still up against the same problems -- sewage and schools. <br />It was mentioned that Forest Lake doesn't want to build onto the school until the <br />airport is decided, Rev. Wirth said that St. Joseph School will be closed and two <br />representatives from Forest Lake had contacted him about renting the catholic <br />school. <br />Mr. Kelling made a motion that Planning & Zoning recommend to the Council that .rr <br />don't have a hearing on this site on the basis of lack of sewer and schools. <br />Motion seconded by Mr. Husnik. Carried unanimously.
