March 23, 1981 Gourley asked her to submit her documents to this effect to the Mr. Glenn Rehbein, the Developer, pointed out that this property is ideally located for industrial property - that his new home is across the street and did not feel that this development would devalue property. Mr. Jeff Johnson, 7421 Lake Drive, he is opposed to sewer because he has a lot of frontage and it follows that he would also be opposed to the rezoning. Mr. Ostlie felt it would be good to know what impact the reported tax increase would have on the residents of the City before a decision is made on this rezoning. Mr. Karth said the dollar value would be approximately 3 time as much from an industrial zone as from a residential area. Mayor Gourley asked if there was any questions from the Council. Mr. Jaworski asked Mr. Karth if the area was zoned industrial, is there a time schedule for the development of the property - Mr. Karth said there is approximately a three months process of platting the next phase would be to start the construction - this would probably be in the early fall. This would depend on how soon the preparation of the plat could be accomplished and presented to the Planning and Zoning Board for their review. The area being considered is the entire area with the exception of lots 12,13, & 14. These are the Southern most lots that had been proposed for HI. Mrs. Elsenpeter pointed out that this Council must consider what is best for the entire City and regreted that in that process, some individuals may be hurt. Mr. Jaworski moved to approve the rezoning of Zone A to LI. Seconded by Mr. McLean. Motion on roll call vote: Mr. Kulaszewicz - Aye; Mr. Jaworksi -Aye: Mr. McLean - Aye; Mrs. Elsenpeter - Aye; Mayor Gourley - Aye. Motion carried unanimously. A recess was called at this point in the meeting. The meeting reconvened and Mayor Gourley asked if there was a representative of NORTHWESTERN BELL TELEPHONE present. MR. DOKKEN was in the audience. Mr. Dokken presented the Council with contour maps of the area and informed the Council that there is no problem with the setbacks as re- quired by the City. The building will be put at the 40' setback line. The site has been reduced in size to accomadate just the building with the minimum setbacks. This would create a substandard lot that cannot be used for any other purpose. This lot will be fenced and will also be landscaped. This will be presented in detail at the time the application for construction is submitted. Mr. McLean moved to approve this variance as amended, the area to be landscaped and fenced. Seconded by Mr. Kulaszewicz. Moyor Gourley pointed out this is a variance to Ord. #56 and Ord. #78. Mr. Schumacher questioned the Park Land dedication. Mr. McLean amended his motion, that since this is a public utility, the park land dedication be waived. The amendment was seconded by Mr. Kulaszewicz. Motion carried unanimously.
