148 PLANNING 8 ZONING November 13, 1985 Page Four drainage. The Board complimented Mr. Rosengren on a thorough presentation. MOTION: Mr. Cody moved to recommend to Council approval of the site and building plan for Jerome T. Rosengren, dba Jerry's Garden Shop at 8322 Lake Drive, Lino Lakes, MN (application dated 10/3/85) because the site and building plan complies with Section 5, Subdivi- sion 4, Paragraph 1 - 4 of the Zoning Code. Mrs. Klaus seconded the motion which carried unanimously. SPETZMAN TRANSMISSION - AMENDED CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT Mr. Jim Spetzman represented himself in his request to amend his conditional use permit to allow him to rent one of his buildings to another party to operate an auto repair shop. Mr. Johnson, in his 11/8/85 memo stated his concern that approval of this request would intensify an industrial use abutting a residential district; many cities restrict the number of principal uses on a lot to only one - -this situation may create a precedent of more than one principal business per lot. He recommended tabling this item until the issued of number of principal uses per lot is addressed (the current ordinance does not address the issue). Mr. McLean voiced his concern that intensification as proposed may create a "mini industrial park ".

Motion seconded by Mr. Prokop and carried unanimously. Mr. Cody said that for the record, he felt that the P 8 Z Board should deal with the issue of number of principle uses. Upon request, Mr. Johnson agreed to bi.ing background information and recommendations regarding principle uses to the December meeting of the P 8 Z Board. PAUL TUBBS - METES & BOUNDS CONVEYANCE Mr. Paul Tubbs represented Al Augustine in a request for a metes and bounds subdivision. Per Mr. Johnson's 11/8/85, the request was also for a lot width variance for one of the parcels. The applicant showed that the lot width of the parcel in question was large enough that a variance would not be necessary. After lengthy discussion, the Board felt that the proposed layout should be changed to allow for a better road pattern through this property. Mr. Tubbs voiced his opinion that the City in this case would be placing a economic hardship on the owner of the property by requiring a different layout. He felt that the proposed layout
