November 22, 1976 inance 21, Sec. 10, with the City Engineer's approval, with 150' frontage on the said road extension to be completed without black top this Fall with a bond or money in escrow to be established for finishing in 1977, the amount to be set by the Engineer. Seconded by Mr. Schneider. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. McLean reported that Mr. Volk and Mr. Mobley have responded to the complaint dir- ected against the Molin Concrete Plant. Mr. Gourley will talk to the man who complained and explain what is being done. Mr. Paul Albrect, of White Bear Lake, had presented a preliminary plat for land located in the SouthEast section of the City. A letter from the Engineer and the Planner sett- ing forth some recommendations had been received. This plat must be considered by the Rice Creek Watershed Board and a copy of the plat has been sent for their consideration. Mr. Albrecht does not have the soil borings completed as yet. Mr. McLean questioned Mr. Locher on the procedure for handling this plat. Mr. Locher said that more data would be needed before approval. He felt Mr. Albrecht should be encouraged to continue. Mr. Locher felt this could be approved as a preliminary concept. Mr. McLean moved to accept this preliminary concept subject to the recommendations of the Planner and Engineer, with more data to be received and the recommendations be sat- isfied. Seconded by Mr. Karth. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Bruce Borden, represented by Mr. Blackbird, presented the Board with a proposed new business to be located in the old City Hall building on Lake Drive. Mr. Borden manufactures insulation from news print. He plans the construction of several pole type buildings with concrete floors since this paper must be kept free of moisture. He plans to purchase several acres to the East for the construction of these buildings. Mr. Blackbird asked what was necessary for the use of this land and was told to submit an application for rezoning. Mr. Blackbird said he would pick up the forms at the Clerk's office. Mr. Blackbird also asked what he had to do to get a bulding permit on land located at the end of 79th street? The Board suggested that a cul -de -sac be installed within the property which would give the parcel of land 150' frontage on a street. Mr. Karth said the survey on this land had been done in 1964, would it not be grand - fathered in under the new ordinance? Mr. McLean said this is just a survey, not a re- gistered plat. Mr. Blackbird said he would think about it. Mr. Glenn Rehbein appeared asking for information for the use of an easement 33' wide to gain access to lands he owns bordering 1 35 W just west of the Skelly Station. The general consensus of the Planning and Zoning Board was Mr. Rehbein should attempt to get an additional 33' easement for a regular street into the property. There is a land- locked parcel along this easement and it was suggested perhaps a trade could be worked out. Mr. Rehbein said he would see what could be done. Mr. McLean presented the Planning and Zoning Board with a report on the progress report on the Chain of Lakes Park. A booklet has been prepared and will be presented to the Anoka County Commissioners. The Anoka County Park Board plans an official presentation to the communities involved in this Park sometime in January. Mr. Mc Lean will keep this Board informed. Mr. Schneider reported on the meeting of the Park Board held on November 15, 1976. Both hockey associations had been represented at the meeting and the flooding of the rinks had been discussed. Also, the rental of a trailer to be used as a warming house here at the Hall rink. The cost is $90.00 per month and does not have bathroom facilities. 1 1
