Planning and Zoning
September 12, 1984
The regular meeting of the Lino Lakes Planning and Zoning Board was
called to order at 7:35 P.M. on Wednesday, September 12, 1984 by Chairman
McLean. Mr. Goldade, Mr. Ostlie, Mrs. Klaus, Mr. Doocy and Mr. Cody were
also present, Mr. Prokop entered the meeting at 9:20 P.M. Mr. Kluegel and
Mrs. Foster were also present.
MINUTES - August 8, 1984
Mr. Doocy approved the minutes as presented. Motion seconded by Mr. Goldade.
On voting, Mrs. Klaus abstained, motion carried.
BUILDING OFFICIAL'S REPORT
Mr. Kluegel reported the following P & Z items were considered by City
Council: 1) Gary and Arlene Averbeck's application for conditional use
permit to operate a nursery was approved by August 13 Council, 2) Donald
Wyse's application for variance in order to construct addition on his
duplex was denied by August 27 Council, 3) Robert Johnson's application
for conditional use permit to operate dog kennel was approved by September
10 Council per P & Z recommendations, 4) WCCO's application for amended
conditional use permit to add two satellite receiving dishes was approved
by September 10 Council.
Mr. Kluegel also informed the Board that a public hearing has been set to
be held at September 24 Council meeting at 7:30 regarding draft sign ordin-
ance and that the Council requested that P & Z Board be represented at that
*hearing. Chairman McLean and /or Mr. Cody agreed to attend.
DOG KENNEL /ACCESSORY BUILDINGS WORK SESSIONS
Chairman McLean asked that the Board at this time decide upon a date to
have work session for these items. Mr. Goldade suggested that because of
the interest by so many citizens in the accessory building issue that this
item be considered as a ballot issue to be voted upon by all the citizens
of the City. He felt that the P & Z Board should find out what sort of
lead time is required to have such an item placed on the ballot. Mr. Ostlie
agreed, however, no action was taken in this regard.
The Board agreed to conduct a work session on Wednesday, September 19 at
7:30 at City Hall to discuss primarily the dog kennel ordinance. At that
meeting, should time allow, the accessory building issue will be discussed.
If time does not allow, an additional meeting time will be decided upon.
REZONE REQUEST - TOM McDONOUGH
Mr. McDonough appeared before the Board requesting a rezone for a parcel
which he owns on Ash St. He told the Board that the City of Shoreview has
sewer and water on the Shoreview side of Ash St. and that they have given
the City of Lino Lakes the option of hooking up to that system in order
to service residents on the Lino Lakes side of Ash St. Mr. McDonough
would be willing to hook up to this proposed system with the condition that
he be allowed to subdivide his property into 12 separate lots as proposed
�in the sketch presented to the Board.

III Mr. McDonough said that in speaking with Mr. Davidson, City Engineer, he
was told that approval of Mr. McDonough's request would reduce the cost
to other residents.
Mr. Cody passed on his understanding of the sewer proposal per his conver-
sation with Mr. Schumacher, City Administrator, saying that the sewer has
not been approved yet and is still in the discussion stage, and will be
subject to approval by the Metro Waste Control Commission.
The Board's consensus was that Mr. McDonough's request was presumptuous
and that consideration of his request would have to be done after a firm
approval and commitment regarding the sewer proposal. The Board questioned
why the staff accepted a rezone request fee from Mr. McDonough knowing the
situation. Mr. Cody suggested Mr. McDonough withdraw this request and get
his money back and resubmit the request when the sewer project is firm.
Mr. McLean felt that at the time of the sewer approval and installation,
the comprehensive plan would be changed as would the urban service district
and the entired sewered area would be rezoned from the present ER to R -1,
that Mr. McDonough would probably not be required to make this request on
his own behalf.
The Board concurred with Mr. Cody's statement that at the time of installa-
tion of sewer /water to the area in question, the Board would strongly con-
sider rezoning the area.
AMENDED CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT - HOUSE OF PRAISE
Tony and Peter Racchini represented the House of Praise in their request
for an amended conditional use permit to allow a two - story addition to the
front of their church /school building to improve the appearance of the
front of the building and provide a little bit more room and also provide
a means of going from the church to the basement (where Sunday school, etc.
takes place) without going out of the building and reentering. The addition
would also include new rest room facilities, a classroom and office space.
Mr. McLean asked about the condition of the septic system. Mr. Kluegel
stated that the system was extensively repaired lastspringand is in good
order. Mr. Doocy asked whether there would be an increase in signage, to
which Tony Racchini answered that they had not considered or dealt with
signs.
The Board's main concern was that of parking. The present parking facility
is basically dirt and gravel. The church had planned to grade the parking
lot and cover with class 5. Mr. Kluegel read the ordinance pertaining
grandfathered situations, which basically said that upon consideration of
amending a conditional use permit, the parking facilities would have to be
brought up to date to conform to the current ordinance, which in this case
would call for asphalt /concrete parking area.
The church representatives questioned the economical feasibility of black -
ilotopping the parking lot. The Board suggested a parking pad large enough
to accommodate the usual number of cars parked there, which the representa-
tives said would be approximately ten spaces.
Mr. Cody moved to table consideration of amended conditional use permit

for the House of Praise until submission of additional plans for a blacktop
parking pad (minimum of 10 spaces) be submitted (no later than September 18).
Motion seconded by Mr. Doocy, motion carried.
Peter Racchini stated that he would submit the plans and the Board said
they could consider the issue at their September 19 meeting and reminded
Mr. Racchini that they could only make recommendations to the City Council
who would be responsible to make the final approval or denial decision.
Chairman McLean called for a recess at 8:45, reconvened at 8:53.
ROY STANLEY - REZONE REQUEST
Mr. Stanley came before the Board requesting a rezone for his 121 acres
of land in order to construct some multi - family homes in an area near
35W and the Correctional Facility, which is presently zoned ER.
Mr. McLean outlined a letter regarding this request from Mr. Chapman, City
Planner. The Board felt this situation was very similar to the request
considered earlier brought about by Mr. McDonough, in that the Board could
not consider approval of such a request without first receiving a firm
commitment in regard to proposed sewer in the area.
Mr. Stanley and Mr. Kluegel explained the outcomes of the meetings recently
IIIheld with the City the purpose of which was to come up with an agreement
between the City and the developers involved in the proposed sewer in Mr.
Stanley's area. The Board felt however, that no firm commitment or approval
has been made, and thus, they could not take action.
Mrs. Klaus moved to table consideration of Mr. Stanley's request for a
rezone at least until the October meeting of the P & Z or later dependent
upon the P & Z's being informed that the City Council has established the
proposed sewer boundaries and a firm arrangement has been made. _ Motion
seconded by Mr. Cody. Mr. Goldade suggested amending the motion to
include "until a written developer's agreement exists ". Mrs. Klaus accepted
Mr. Goldade's amendment. Motion carried.
METES AND BOUNDS CONVEYANCE /SITE AND BUILDING PLAN REVIEW - BASTIEN PRODUCTS
The Board reviewed the site and building plan presented by Bob Yauk and
Frank Damon, representatives of Bastien Products. Mr. Kluegel reminded
the Board that this area was recently zone to GB.
Mr. Prokop entered the meeting at 9:20 P.M.
The Board asked several questions, primarily regarding access by semi -truck
deliveries (presently a semi would back in from Aqua Lane). Since it is
planned for the future that Aqua Lane would someday be the entrance to
Chain of Lakes Park, the Board felt that a loop for turning a semi should
ebe available on the Bastien property.
Mrs. Klaus voiced her concern regarding the fact that the Bastien property
now includes a house and stucco garage which will be used by Bastien for
office space. She felt that a house would not provide for "a businesslike
atmosphere ".

•Mr. Ostlie questioned whether the site and building plan complied with
all specifications as outlined on page 40 of the City Ordinance. Mr.
Kluegel said that it did comply.
•
It was understood that Bastien Products also is known by the name FRDY
Partnership.
Mr. Ostlie moved to recommend to Council that FRDY Partnership be granted
their request for approval of site and building plan review and metes and
bounds conveyance, providing there be a 10' X 20' covered attached drive-
way /walkway connecting existing building and proposed building, and to
include fencing to match the existing fencing, due south from where fence
presently stops, then westward to the stucco garage. Motion seconded by
Mr. Prokop, motion carried.
Mr. Kluegel was asked by the Board to check into "park dedication" in
this case. He agreed to check it out, he had never dealt with this in
a commercial area. Mr. Goldade asked that Mr. Kluegel deal with signage
for directions to semi drivers to eliminate backing into either Aqua Lane
or Lake Drive. Mr. Kluegel said he would see that appropriate signage go
into place.
Bastien Products representatives were informed that their request would
be considered by City Council, with P & Z recommendations, at their
September 24 meeting.
OLD BUSINESS
Mr. Kluegel reported that the Park Board discussed the LaMotte Park vaca-
tion issue at their September 10 meeting and decided to request a joint
meeting with the Planning and Zoning Board to try to come up with a deci-
sion regarding LaMotte Park. Mr. McLean asked that this issue be placed
on the Planning and Zoning Board's agenda for October (at beginning of the
meeting) and that Mr. Kluegel inform those interested Park Board members
and concerned citizens. •
Mrs. Klaus asked if anyone knew why the Council did not include lighting
requirements when approving the transmission tower amendment at their
July 23 Council meeting. The Council minutes noted that there was dis-
cussion regarding lighting, but no requirements were added to the amendment,
and she felt that this is something that the P & Z may have overlooked and
possibly should have been added.
Mr. McLean informed Mr. Kluegel that he has seen a semi parked along Ash
St. recently. Mr. Ostlie reported seeing a semi on a private drive on
Lake Drive. Mr. Kluegel agreed to check these areas.
Mr. Prokop questioned the width of the roads being constructed in the West
Oaks area and wanted Mr. Davidson to be reminded that as engineer, he is
not to approve any widths other than those called for by ordinance. Mr.
Kluegel agreed to inquire and make sure road widths are per ordinance.
Mr. Prokop also asked why it was necessary to cut so far back into the
Evans property in the Reiling Road project. He asked for an answer from
John Davidson.

•Mr. Doocy reminded Mr. Kluegel that the A -Well business is still an
eyesore with junk cars, etc. all around. Mr. Kluegel is aware of the
situation and said he would see what he could do about it.
Mr. Kluegel reminded the Board that the City will be going to court on
October 3 regarding the Roland Ford property.
NEW BUSINESS
None.
Mr. Prokop moved to adjourn at 10:20 P.M., seconded by Mr. Goldade. Motion
