June 21, 1972 The regular meeting of the Lino Lakes Planning and Zoning Board was called to order on June 21, 1972, at 8:10 P.M. Mr. Winiecki and Mr. Kelling were absent. Corrections on the May 24, 1972 minutes were: Page 1, Paragraph 4 from the bottom, Line I, "selling" is misspelled. Mr. Hill moved to accept the minutes to the May 17th and May 24th meetings as presented with the correction. Seconded by Mr. Karth. Carried unanimously. Floyd Miller request for two variances was reviewed at this time because oone of the others on the agenda were as yet present. These variances are requested on West Rondeau Drive and they are nonplatted. On the parcel labeled Lot A he requests a variance for less than 2/ acres. The parcel would be 209'x414'. He is selling it. He mentioned that percolation tests were taken on it. Mr. Nadeau moved to recommend the Council grant variance to Mr. Miller on Lot A. Seconded by Mr. Shearen. Carried unanimously. The second variance is for the adjoining parcel labeled Lot B. He is giving this as a gift to his son and is asking for a variance for less than 21 acres, and more specifically for 120' frontage. The Board asked him if he could give his son 30 more feet to bring it up to our code of 150 ft. He was told we don't want to set precedent for granting less. There was general discussion as to the reason for the setback of 414 feet. He said it was due to a ditch running through hack in there. He figured it would make it easier for dividing up later on as he wouldn't have to work around that ditch. Mr. Shearen moved to recommend that the Council grant a variance on Lot B for less than 2$ acres with frontage of 150 ft. Seconded by Mr. Hill. Carried unanimously. Mr. McLean advised receipt of copies of agreements from Brede with Jesse Heller and Ed Karth. These easements provide access to signs, and will be given to the Council for their information. Mr. Nadeau asked if anything has been heard from the attorney regarding the mining of black dirt. It was mentmoned that Marvin Rehbein is doing the same thing off of Highway 49. Mr. Marier said a letter had been sent, but nothing has been received regarding this matter. Mr. Marier and Mr. McLean noted the fact that 90% of the items on the agenda are for variances. Mr. Marier said that either our ordinance is wrong or it is right. Everything should be treated according to the ordinance with good judgment. We must live with the ordinance or change it if it is bad or wrong. Mr. Marier pointed out an article in the paper regarding the adoption of the State Building Code as of July Ist. The article noted the villages would still be given the right to regulate sizes of buildings. He felt that, in view of this, he was right in recommending 100 sq. ft. minimum areas. Mr. Marier also commended the Board for doing their work and doing it well. Bill Leonard requested an extension of 64th Street for about 1/4 of a mile road back into the Iverson property (40 acres). 9r. McLean informed the lversons that the develoner provides all roads. Benefitting property owners would have to share in the cost. This would be extending a Village road - the County would have nothing to do with it. Blacktop and curbing are required in our Code. Mr. Marier advised that assistance is available for roads, and our Village Engineer would consult with them regarding all problems. it was sug-
