• • PLANNING & ZONING BOARD September 13, 1989 REZONING REQUEST FOR RESHANAU PARK ESTATES, APPLICATION #89- 41. When Lakes Addition No. 3 was platted several years ago two outlots were left on the north end of the subdivision. These were triangular pieces of land that were unbuildable not because of physical reasons but because they did not meet minimum lot requirements. It was understood by everyone that when the vacant land north of Lakes Addition No. 3 was subdivided the two outlots would be combined with that land and several residential lots created. Preliminary and final plats have been received for Reshanau Park Estates - the vacant land to the north. The owners of the different parcels (Robertson and Uhde) have agreed to combine their parcels and Outlot A and Outlot B of Lakes Addition No. 3 will become part of Reshanau Park Estates. The problem is Reshanau Park Estates is zoned R -1X and the two outlots are zoned R -1. The plat for Reshanau Park Estates includes parts of sewer lots that would be zoned R -1. After some discussion a motion was made. MOTION: Alan Irwin moved to recommend to the City Council approval of a rezoning, Application #89 -41, of a portion of Lot 1, a portion of Lot 2A, and all of 3B in Block 2 of Reshanau Park Estates from R -1 to R -1X and that approval for a rezone be granted for part of Lots 1 -3 of Block 1 of Reshanau Park Estates from R -1X to R -1 and part of Lot 4, Block 1 of Reshanau Park Estates from R -1 to R -1X because all the above lots are within two zones and the property in both R -1 and R -1X are nearly the same size. Robert King seconded the motion and the motion was approved unanimously. CONSIDERATION OF TAX INCREMENT FINANCE PLAN FOR MAIN STREET SHOPS The Planning & Zoning Board received a copy of the Tax Increment Finance Plan for Marcor Properties' Main Street Shops project. The plan was prepared by Ron Batty, the City's Tax Increment Attorney. The plan calls for payment of $200,000 to the developer on a "pay -as- you -go" basis, i.e. the city will sell no bonds and the developer will receive no money up- front. Instead as taxes are paid the developer will receive increments until the $200,000 total has been reached. The plan has been sent to Anoka County and the Forest Lake School District as required by law. Each unit of government has 30 days to comment on the plan. The period for review expires on September 11, the night the city council will hold the public hearing on the plan.
