1 <br />1 <br />1 <br />COUNCIL MEETING AUGUST 22, 1988 <br />Mr. Partridge said that although the building will be near <br />Lilac Street, he could not believe that all of the land to <br />the back of the property would not be used. <br />Mr. Bohjanen explained that he is the VFW Commander for the <br />fifth time and has no monetary interest in the Club. He <br />explained the VFW does a great deal in the public interest <br />and noted about $25,000.00 has been donated to the City for <br />parks and police department improvements in the last two <br />years. He noted that the present VFW has had one complaint <br />in the last twenty years. <br />Tracey Douglas said she is not against the VFW. She is <br />concerned about how it is going to affect her property <br />values. She asked if there are plans for ballfields and <br />ball tournaments. Mr. Bohjanen said this has not been <br />decided since the VFW does not know if they can use their <br />gambling proceeds to pay for the ballfield installations. <br />Mr. Bisel noted that if the building is constructed it would <br />be the highest valued building in Lino Lakes. Mr. Reinert <br />asked Mrs. Douglas if she is not against the VFW what is her <br />objection. Mrs. Douglas said she felt it was not an <br />appropriate location based on traffic levels and the people <br />who live there, especially if there are tournament <br />balifields. Mayor Benson said that by requiring a buffer <br />this concern should be eliminated. <br />Mr. Bisel asked Mrs. Douglas when she purchased her <br />property. Mrs. Douglas said two years ago. Mr. Bisel asked <br />if she knew that the property next to hers was owned by the <br />VFW. Mrs. Douglas said yes. <br />Mrs. Douglas asked what this building would do to the tax <br />base in Lino Lakes. Mr. Bisel explained. <br />Mr. Partridge asked if this proposal is accepted could the <br />back be fenced to prevent traffic from going through. He <br />said he thought the VFW was a great organization. Mr. <br />Bohjanen said no one in the VFW is opposed to buffering the <br />sides and back of the property. <br />Mrs. Douglas asked if the residential property is rezoned to <br />GB will this rasie their property taxes. Mayor Benson <br />explained it would not until something commercial was built <br />on the land. <br />Mrs. Jensen suggested that the VFW sit down with the <br />adjoining property owners and discuss their plans. <br />PAGE 17 <br />189 <br />
