•e11in owner. Motion carried. Planning and Zoning Board August 8, 1984 Page Four Mr. Cody suggested to Mr. Wyse that if the Council denies his request that he initiate a zoning ordinance amendment with the Planning and Zoning Board. Mr. Wyse felt that this recommendation to Council was definitely not in his favor, but he was assured that the Council would receive a complete set of minutes regarding tonight's discussion and would make their decision accordingly. GEORGE KOZA - REZONE Mr. Koza appeared before the Board in regard to a parcel of property which he bought (tax delinquent from the County) which was zoned general business when he bought it. He had planned to use the property for a business and since then, unbeknownest to Mr. Koza, the land was rezoned residential. Mr. Isaksen was in attendance also, with very similar complaint regarding his property in the same area. Neither gentleman was area of the public hearings which took place approximately one and a half years ago to change the zoning of the area in question, and neither felt it would be economically beneficial for them to build homes on the property considering the conditions of nearby properties. Both men had considerable investment in these properties and felt that, particularly because of the 9 -ton road in front (Highway 49), the area was conducive to business. 41Ik. Prokop pointed out that the options for Mr. Koza and Mr. Isaksen would : 1) the Planning and Zoning Board could table the request and the gentlemen could contact other owners in the area to petition for rezone, because rezoning only their properties would be "strip zoning" and not allowed, or 2) the Board could deny the request, Mr. Koza would lose $50 request fee and the gentlemen's request would not be considered by the Board for a one -year period. Mr. Koza and Mr. Isaksen were assured that the office staff and Mr. Kluegel would help attain the names of those owners to assist them in their endeavor. Mr. Cody moved "that the application from George Koza dated 7/26/84 for a rezone be tabled pending his consultations with other landowners in the area and resubmission within 60 days to the Planning and Zoning Board in the event he chooses to do so." Mr. Goldade seconded the motion. Motion carried. Chairman McLean called for five minute recess. Meeting reconvened at 9:30 P.M. WCCO RADIO - AMENDED CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT Mr. Henry Shepard represented WCCO in their request to erect two antennaes on their property due to the fact that in November, 1984 CBS will be phasing out the use of microwave land lines and receiving must be accomplished by satellite dishes. The request is for the addition of one fixed antenna and ne moving (rotating) antenna dish. Ilk Mr. McLean was concerned that this request would be one of "a continuing intensification problem ". Mr. Shepard explained that the original plan called for changes of this kind when necessary.
