• • • PLANNING AND ZONING MEETING December 19, 1989 Brandywood. Estates contingent upon meeting recommendations of the letters dated December 6, 1989 from the planner and the engineer as follows: 1. Lot size and zoning. There is no sentiment to rezone the land to R -1. The lot sizes should be adjusted to reflect R -1X requirements. 2. Drainage and ponding will need to be better addressed. For example the engineer notes the "park" will likely be the drainage area. 3. The concept plan be modified so as to eliminate double frontage lots adjacent to 12th Avenue and reduce the number of double frontage lots against Birch Street. 4. Park and trail issues should be reviewed with the park board. 5. Other street and road issues addressed by the engineer will have to be rectified. 6. Before submittal of a preliminary plat approval letters or agreements should be obtained from other review agencies including Rice Creek Watershed District, DNR, Army Corps of Engineers, and Anoka County. 7. And finally, before submittal of the preliminary plat a commitment from the city council to extend public utilities to the area is needed, i.e. no sewer, no subdivision. DISCUSSION OF A CITY INITIATED REZONING FOR A PORTION OF THE WENZEL PROPERTY LOCATED AT THE INTERSECTION OF LAKE DRIVE AND AQUA LANE (FROM TABLE OF NOVEMBER 8, 1989). The Economic Development Committee reviewed the staff proposed rezoning of the General Business portion of the Elsie Wenzel property. This was done at its meeting of November 28th. The EDC recommended rezoning both the R -1 and General Business areas to the Planned Unit Development district. This would give the land owner some ability to operate in the market place but would require the submittal of a very detailed plan for the board and city council review. If the plan showed poor relationship between different uses or showed normal strip commercial development it could (would) be denied. Mr. Irwin discussed his opinion of a PUD zone. He felt this is an overlay zone, that the General Business and R -1 zoning Page 8
