on January 21, 1970, was celled to order at 8 :00 p.m. by Chairman John McLean
with all members present. Mr. Cardinal was also present.
Mr, Korth moved to accept the minutes of December 17, 1969 es presented. Seconded
by Mr. Jester. Carried unanimously.
Mr. McLean stated that Ordinance No. 52 deals with setting a fee schedule for
arocessing petitions for special use permits, rezoning, platting and variances.
sir. Locher requested that we recommend whether this should be adopted as an
Ordinance to the Village of Lino Lakes, Mr. Locher said some previous applicants
felt they should not pay for the services they are getting. The cost of processing,
rezoning, platting and variances, and special use permits must be borne by the
applicant end not the Village. Ordinance No. 52 etates that no application for a
special use permit, rezoning, variance er_ platting shall be accepted or considered
unless such application shall be accompanied bye deposit of $100, in addition to
a fee schedule for the various types of proceedings described in the ordinance.
Mr. Kelling made a motion that Ordinance NW. 52 be passed with the exception that
the $100.00 deposit must be paid before considering an application. Seconded by
Mr. Karth. Mstion carried unanimously.
Mi. McLean stated that we will be unable to process certain of the sign appli-
cations from Neegele and Meyer Advertising Companies received to date since they:.
do not adequately describe the location of the sign applied for. The sign appli
ration from Clem Houle's property asks for two permits and there is only room for
one due to the one 990' of frontage. These applications will be referred to the
applicants for correction before presentation to the Planning and Zoning Commission.
Naegele Sign Company presented applications for special use permits Nos. 70, 13,
And 14 which are located on the Jesse Helier property situated on the northwest
edge of I -35W, The spacing of these signs was checked with Mr. Gotweld and
Mr. Locher and the description of the signs was in accord with our Ordinance No.
51. Permit No. 10 refers to a location east 50' of Gov. Lot 2, Sec. 9. Permit
No. 13 refers to a location West 50' of Southwest 1/4 of Northwest 1/4, See. 10.
Naegele Sign Company also presented applications for special use permits Nos. 11
Ind 12 to be located on Boyd property on the Northwest side of I -35W. Mr. Karth
required if permits Nos. 11 and 12 would be spaced in relationship to the three
3igns that Meyer's have been granted a permit on the Schmuck property. Since the
Neegele Permit No. 11 is to be located in the North 50' of the Boyd property and
Permit No. 12 is to be located 1200' Southwest, there would be no problem. The
Boyd property bas 2465' of frontage on I -35W.
Mr. Jester moved to recommend to the Council that special use permit Nos. 10, 11,
12, 13, and 14 be granted to Neegele Sign Company. Mr. Karth seconded this motion.
Motion carried unanimously.

Mr. Karth mentioned there was quite a lot of work to be done on the area and he
also asked if the low :lots would be brought up. Mr. Busch said he realized there
are approximately 12 lots in marshy ground, and that there will be some removal
of unsuitable soil in those instances. This will be done before building permits
will be requested. He did not feel that there were any lots indicated that were
5mpracticel to build on. They had indicated on the proposed plat what they
anticipated for storm sewer. There is a ditch along the east side that exists
There now, the lake on the west side and the St. Paul Waterworks ditch. Mr. Hill
asked if the St. Paul Waterworks would be involved in the drainage problem.
Mr. Locher stated that St. Paul Waterworks runs over the Wards Lake. There is
no problem there as over the years it has become a waterway. Mr. Jensen stated
has been discussed with St. Paul Waterworks and they have indicated to them
they have no objections to construction in this area.
Mr. Husnik made a motion to accept the plat as presented. Mr. Jester seconded it.
Motion carried unanimously.
The hearing for the special use permit for two of the areas involving two town
house parcels and oneapertment house parcel on Lakes Addition No. 2 was called
to order. Mr. Locher showed that the hearing affidavits were in order. These
outlots are identified as G & K (town houses), and H (multi - family).
The hearing involves applying for a special use permit for construction of town
rouses and multi- family units on the designated outlots. References to Mr. Van
Nousen's letter were made concerning approval of these outlots. He stated we
hould not approve because approval at this point is premature.
Mr. Busch mentioned that they have in mind to cone before the Village with e
final plat of these two outlots showing all the specifications of the town house
levelopment.
Mr. Locher mentioned that the Village could require a bond be posted or refuse to
issue building permits until there is a definite plan and approval for construction
Mr. Busch said he would come back with a plat showing a number of town house units
wrlich will consist of a platted lot. The balance of the area will be platted also.
1 r. Karth moved that we recommend to the Council for future use Outlots G, H, and
2 of Lakes Addition No. 2 for town houses and multi- family dwellings, providing
oandric comes before the Planning Board and Village Council with plats before
taey go to work and for these to be approved by Planning & Zoning and the Council.
1'!r. McLean mentioned the presentation includes items 1 and 2 from Mr. Van Housen's
Tanning and Zoning Procedures. He also mentioned that final platting of these
lots must be approved prior to the granting of any construction permits.
The motion was seconded by Mr. Rehbein. Carried unanimously.

that the hearing affidavits were in order. Mr. McLean stated this hearing in-
olves Outlot J for Limited Commercial and would be used for small retail business

offices (excluding filling stations) with no issuance of permits for construction
until approval by the Council. Mr. Rehbein seconded this motion. Carried

Miller from Acton came forward and introduced Mr. Ralph Chiotti, an economic
consultant, and Mr, Bob Isacson who had prepared the drawings whieh they presented,
Mr. Chiotti mentioned that the characteristics of the land demands a high value
kind of development and I -35E certainly is going to give the area great accessi-
bility. There are 18 lots in this proposal for development that would range in
ize from 3 acre to 22 acre lots.
Jr. McLean asked what kind of businesses did they propose for tlis type of area?
dr. Isacson said they would have to await the arrival of sewer cni water, but
They would like to limit their requests for rezoning for light industrial business.
rr. Locher commented that we can consider this for zoning to Limited Commercial.
Mr. Isacson then mentioned that the Planning Commission might be doing themselves
less favor by limiting them to one particular category in our zoning.
1vlr. Rehbein made a recommendation that the requirements for items 1 and 2 from
Mr. Van Housen's Planning and Zoning Procedures be brought before the Planning
