• • • Planning & Zoning Board December 12, 2007 Page 3 upon review of the application, staff determined a need for a rezoning of the property and the potential need for a Conditional Use Permit and Variance. Staff recommended that the board continue this item to the next meeting to allow for the necessary revisions to be made. Mr. Bengtson noted that city staff is working with the project engineer on corrections to the submitted documents. Staff encouraged the board to open the Public Hearing in order to address any concerns of the public. Chair Tralle opened the Public Hearing at 6:48 p.m. Larry Leibel, 1281 Birch St., Lino Lakes, stated that Mr. Vaughan has been an excellent neighbor, however was concerned that any fill may cause water to flow onto his property. Kirk Corson, 6662 Ruffed Grouse Road, stated that the previous Comprehensive Plan showed a trail on this property. He wondered if this had been addressed as he would like access to a trail as previously proposed. Mr. Studenski stated that no earthwork will occur near Birch Street, therefore drainage will not affect Mr. Leibel's property. Mr. Smyser stated that the previous trail plan showed a trail going through the property, however the latest trail plan does not include a trail in this area. He stated that there is no interest for the city to place a trail in that location, and that staff cannot put a trail on someone's property just because someone wants it there. Mr. Ed Vaughan, applicant, was present to address the board. Mr. Pogalz made a MOTION to CONTINUE the Public Hearing for the Preliminary Plat for Vaughan's 1st Addition to the January meeting. Motion was supported by Mr. Nelson. Motion carried 5 - 0. C.

Mr. Tralle suggested that the item be tabled without opening the item for discussion. Mr. Root made a MOTION to TABLE the Variance to allow an existing detached accessory structure to encroach into the side setback at 2221 Reiling Road to the January meeting. Motion was supported by Mr. Nelson. Motion carried 5 - 0. Chair Tralle called a five minute recess at 7:02 p.m. Chair Tralle reconvened the meeting at 7:07 p.m. DRAFT MINUTES
