MINUTES Mr. Goldade moved to approve the minutes of the April 13, 1983 Planning and Zoning Board meetingas presented. Mrs. Klaus seconded the motion. Motion declared passed. RESOLUTION FOR RECLASSIFICATION OF A PORTION OF ASH STREET (COUNTY ROAD J) Mr. Art Hawkins who owns the only property to the north of Ash Street in this area was present to give his views of the reclassification. He pre- sented a map showing his property. When 35E was constructed it split his farm. He now owns land on both sides of 35E. He explained he was not concerned with the reclassification itself. He was concerned that the reason for the reclassification was for a long range proposal for a dia- mond interchange on the north side of Ash Street at 35E. This would affect his property (about 6 acres) on the east side of 35E. He felt if there will be a diamond interchange he hoped they would take the entire parcel. He 411 felt if only a portion was left it would be useless. Mr. McLean said that the Planning and Zoning Board could recommend that the diamond interchange be eliminated from the Comprehensive Plan. This would remove the City's interest in the interchange. He felt this would help in controlling the lake and prevent this area from becoming another dumping ground. Also if residences were constructed in this area it would give the City an additional taxable base where a diamond interchange would not. He felt a complete diamond interchange would not have a real impact on the traffic patterns. Mr. Ostlie asked Mr. Hawkins if his concern was that if this bacame a full diamond interchange he would not be adequately compensated for the land? Mr. Hawkins said, yes. Mr. McLean said he felt what Lino Lakes should be doing is removing the recommendation of a diamond interchange at this location. Mrs. Klaus felt a need should be shown for a full diamond interchange. Mr. McLean felt the request for reclassification from Ramsey County is so the County can have the entire Otter Lake Road in Ramsey County reclassified for State Aid purposes. Mr. Kluegel said he had talked to a Ramsey County Engineer who said the reason for the request is to make this portion of Otter Lake Road conform to the County Comprehensive Plan. This engineer •
