PUBLIC HEARING (OPEN AND CONTINUE to January 12, 2000) Bluebill Ponds, Main Street, Preliminary Plat Staff has indicated the developer is working on revisions to his previously submitted plan and will provide additional information for review at the January 12, 2000 meeting. Staff requested the public hearing be continued to the January 12, 2000, meeting. Mr. Corson made a MOTION to continue this item to the January 12, 2000, Planning and Zoning Board meeting, and was supported by Ms. Carlson. Motion carried 7 -0. B. PUBLIC HEARING (CONTINUED from November 10, 1999), Revised Highland Meadows Preliminary Plat & Rezone Ms. Cindy Sherman, Northwest Associated Consu has requested approval of a 107 unit, mixed de as Highland Meadows. Ms. Sherman noted t revised and resubmitted plans as follows: dvised TSM Development, Inc. resi ial development to be know fications that have been made on the 1. The north area of the • to t is proposed to be platted as an Outlot which will allow development �:vw n access can be addressed 2. Lois Lane has more lot depth adjacent to the north approximately 15 feet to provide er line easement. 3. A trail corridor fift-en feet in width has been provided between Blocks 1, 3, 4, and 5 and the balance of the area has been absorbed into the lots with proper easements provided. 4. Because of the shift in Lois Lane and related modifications to the lots on the north side of the road, the park area is shown as 4.01 acres which is consistent with the previous plan. However, the Park Board indicated a desire to expand the park by acquiring Outlot D. With the changes in the lots surrounding the park, Outlot D has been reduced in size. The Outlot is now sized to provide a buffer to the existing exception parcel. If the park area is expanded by acquiring Outlot D, then there will not be a buffer to the existing homeowner. There is not an ability to expand the park without eliminating the proposed buffer or lots. 5. Oak Lane was shifted to the south to allow more wetland preservation in Block 6. This resulted in a shift of the buildings south of the road. The buildings all • • • Planning & Zoning Board December 8, 1999 Page 3 • meet or exceed the setback requirements from external property lines and from a building separation perspective. • 6. The number of lots with limited rear yards has been significantly reduced. Building plans have been submitted that show three plans ranging from 32 feet 4 inches to 44 feet deep house footprints. Ms. Sherman advised of the approvals necessary to accommodate the development proposal which included rezoning .25 acres of the property from R -1, Single Family Residential to R -3, Medium Density Residential; preliminary plat; amended Planned Development Overlay (PDO) to provide flexibility from district lot area requirements and setbacks; and site plan review for the multi - family area. It was noted that the modifications to the plan were based upon final wetland/ponding requirements of the Rice Creek Watershed District. With the modifications provided, Ms. Sherman recommended approval of the requested rezoning, PDO, and preliminary plat subject to conditions as outlined in her staff report. Chair Schaps asked Ms. Sherman if she is satisfie adequately met. Ms. Sherman stated she believe like more detail on the landscaping. Board's concerns have been rns were met but staff would Chair Schaps asked if there are any missirt GMs. Sherman stated that from a planning perspective, all concerns ha .ee dressed. Mr. Powell stated from and engine $ stipoint, the developer's engineer has made significant changes and subm s. Chair Schaps declared the pub ing open at 6:44 p.m. Dave Baumgarten asked for an opportunity to view a map and stated his concern about separation between the park, private dwellings, and developing areas. He asked if that concern was addressed. Ms. Sherman explained that it is the City's policy to not fence parks. Ms. Lane asked if the Park Board has been made aware of these concerns, noting that they sometimes erect fences or create berms if it is by a trail. Mr. Smyser stated he will speak to Public Services Director Rick DeGardner to address that issue and determine what the cost would be for screening. He agreed that it would be highly unusual to fence a park, especially due to the length involved in this case. • Mr. Baumgarten stated that he wants a fence between private property and the development, not necessarily around the park. Planning & Zoning Board December 8, 1999 Page 4 Mr. Johnson made a MOTION to close the public hearing at 6:50 p.m., and was supported by Mr. Corson. Motion carried 7 -0. Mr. Johnson made a MOTION to approve rezoning an additional area of 0.25 acres of property from R -1, Single Family Residential to R -3, Medium Density Residential, to encompass the multi - family area with a legal description provided prior to final plat, and was supported by Mr. Schilling. Motion carried 7 -0.

Motion carried 7 -0. Mr. Johnson made a MOTION to approve an amendment to the 1997 PDO, Planned Development Overlay, for lot area and setback flexibility, based on the same conditions: The MOTION was supported by Ms. Lane. Motion carried 7 -0. Ms. Sherman noted that the site plan will be addressed when submitted and does not need a separate motion of approval. C. PUBLIC HEARING, TSM Development, 801 Main Street (approx.), Conditional Use Permit, Wetland Mitigation for Highland Meadows Mr. Powell advised that the site grading for the Highland Meadows subdivision will require wetland mitigation. The Wetland Conservation Act (WCA) requires the creation of new wetlands, or an expansion of existing wetlands, to "replace" any wetlands filled by grading activities. The proposed mitigation area for generally located in the northeast corner of the so zoned R -1, Single Family Residential, and is wi residential development is severely limited d Highland Meadows project is orner of Section 5. This area is SA. However, its use for rby wetlands. Mr. Powell noted that Section 12.B of the ing Ordinance states a conditional use permit (CUP) shall be required w or more cubic yards of material is to be removed or deposited on any lot or I ` ` der 5,000 cubic yards, a grading permit could be considered without a C m i .posed mitigation site will require movement of about 20,000 cubic yards o d, therefore, a conditional use permit is required. If the mitigation e confined to the Highland Meadows plat site, a CUP would not be required." ed the Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD) administers the Wetland Conserva ion Act within this area of Lino Lakes. The RCWD has reviewed and approved the proposed grading with stipulations. Mr. Powell stated that staff has reviewed the proposed grading plan and recommends approval of the CUP with conditions as identified in the staff report. Mr. Powell advised there is concern regarding access to the site. Chair Schaps declared the public hearing open at 6:53 p.m. Steve Schmidt, TSM Development, stated the off site mitigation is to be done by the prior owners so he will have to ask Mr. Menkveld about their plans for mitigation. Jim Merila, Merila & Associates, advised that North Suburban Development's engineer • has talked with the previous owner and it was determined that they own a 60 -acre parcel Planning & Zoning Board December 8, 1999 Page 6 of land to the west of the school area to Main Street so they can access the parcel from Main Street. Mr. Schmidt stated they have deeded the lake parcel to the watershed and posted a $40,000 cash bond with the RCWD. Chair Schaps asked the applicant if he has any difficulty with the recommended conditions. Mr. Schmidt stated that he is not responsible for mitigation but is responsible for grading on site. He advised that North Suburban has put up money with the Watershed and asked how he can assure the mitigation will be done. Mr. Powell clarified the conditions are with North Suburban Development, which will be addressed in the development agreement. Ms. Lane asked if this is a 2:1 mitigation ratio. Mr. Schmidt stated it is greater than a 2:1 ratio since they reduced the wetland impact. Mr. Powell reviewed the mitigation requiremen if the A.

Co ditch. He asked if the mitigated land ch will be maintained. Mr. Powell e grading plan. He advised how the TEP sure a wetland is established and the Mr. Corson stated his conc - at t application is for the creation of a wetland by Mr. Menkveld but the developer is nd Mr. Menkveld has a past history of not getting things done. He asked how these o projects can be tied together. Mr. Powell stated this is why the CUP will be useful since the conditions, letter of credit, and completion date are all indicated and drafted to assure timely completion. If not completed, the City can step in to complete the project. Bob Johnson, resident, stated his property is north of this site and he is concerned about how close the south line will be graded towards his property. Mr. Powell presented a drawing indicating the proposed grading, noting it is fairly flat (3:1 ratio) at the location mentioned by Mr. Johnson. He stated there will be a gradual drop -off with undulating elevations across the site. Mr. Corson made a MOTION to close the public hearing at 7:05 p.m., and was supported by Ms. Lane. Motion carried 7 -0. • • • Planning & Zoning Board December 8, 1999 Page 7 • Mr. Corson made a MOTION approving the conditional use permit for the grading of the wetland mitigation area for the Highland Meadows subdivision based on the following: • 1. The proposed activity must conform to any and all requirements of the Rice Creek Watershed District. 2. The grading activity, including any hauling of materials, is restricted to the City's allowed working hours as follows: Monday- Friday 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Saturday 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Sundays/Holidays No working hours allowed 3.

The MOTION was supported by Motion carried 7 -0. hs It was noted that the 1325 public hearing for a conditional use permit (horse arena) has been withdrawn. VI. DISCUSSION ITEMS A. Quail Ridge Park — citizen concern/response Mr. Smyser advised that staff received a letter from a resident regarding the undeveloped park in Quail Ridge. The letter indicates that Mr. Mark Groff read about the Behm's Century Farms park being developed and wonders why the Quail Ridge Park has not been developed since it predates the Behm's development. He noted the response from Public Services Director Rick DeGardner noting that Behm's Park is being developed with funds received from the sale of part of the park land. The developer bought part of the park land from the City, and the City is using the proceeds to develop the park. Mr. Smyser stated that this agenda item is informational and no action is intended. S Mr. Corson stated he attended the previous Park Board meetings and they were going to ask neighbors about the Quail Ridge Park plans and the neighbors to the west but the idea Planning & Zoning Board December 8, 1999 Page 8 is the original dedication would be combined with the 6 -8 acres to the north to create a community park for both areas. With that concept, it was supported by most of the residents but there was no funding available. He stated that a fundraiser was mentioned but, after the meeting, nothing was done. Mr. Smyser explained that Lino Lakes does not allocate general fund money for park development and, typically, the City receives land for the park dedication. He stated that staff will be rewriting the subdivision regulations and, at that time, will determine how to address the issue of park funding. Chair Schaps suggested the City require a combination of land and money for park dedication. Mr. Smyser advised of a court case finding which determined the City of Bloomington's 10% park dedication requirement was appropriate. Mr. Schilling asked what criteria is used to determine which park is developed next as the City accumulates parcels for development. Mr. Powell stated this has to do with the input from neighbors and their support for the proposed improvements. He stated that the Behm's Park situation was unique since the City sol me land and is using revenue from that sale to improve the park. Ms. Carlson advised that the City of Hugo ha must be paid for park dedication. She exp.ine where they couldn't develop new parks o Mr. Smyser stated the issue of par He commented on the importance court challenge. shed a certain amount per unit that Hugo found they were in a situation enance. ill be addressed after the first of the year. the requirement can successfully meet a Mr. Johnson asked if the boars' ` ill ever be reopened. Mr. Corson suggested the Park Advisory Board be asked to resolve that issue so clear direction can be given to developers. Mr. Dunn stated that in most circumstances, it is better to obtain park land to assure it is available for park use. He agreed that it seems unfair that a subdivision has a park dedication fee put aside for development of a neighborhood park and then it is absconded for the development of another park. Chair Schaps stated this is a matter of funding and is actually a matter for action by the Park Advisory Board and the City Council. Mr. Dunn commented on the importance for the Council to attract commercial and industrial businesses to generate revenue for park development. B. Hugo Development — request for water service • • • Planning & Zoning Board December 8, 1999 Page 9 Mr. Smyser presented a map depicting the area under consideration and advised that the City of Hugo has approved a planned unit development located on the east side of Elmcrest Avenue. The project is called Wenzel Farm and includes single family and townhome residences, retail, and office /warehouse development. He reviewed what is being proposed including the realignment of a roadway. He advised that sanitary sewer service will be available through the new Metropolitan Council interceptor scheduled for 2000. Mr. Smyser explained that Hugo cannot provide water at this time, though it does intend to serve the project in the future. However, the development cannot proceed until it hooks up to public water. Mr. Smyser explained that Hugo has approved the project with the condition that the developer gets water from Lino Lakes. This will require that the developer facilitate a joint powers agreement between Hugo and Lino Lakes within 12 months of the August 9, 1999 approval date. Mr. Smyser stated from a land use standpoint, considerations are Elmcrest Avenue and supporting a commercial development that would co ete with Lino Lakes. The developer then revised his request to ask Lino Lak ` "" . ovide water only to the southern residential portion and vacate its half of Elmcre venu his avoids the problem of supporting a competing commercial develop Mr. Powell advised of the names of the d "ice ohn Peterson and Gene Arnt. He noted they have revised their request n _ 1 moots with service being provided for about one year. He stated staff has.. ` •` d determined Lino Lakes can provide adequate water pressure and service - i' dditional area. He stated the City does charge a 10% surcharge to se side of Lino Lakes so there are advantages for Lino Lakes in such an arran - +ce it will produce revenue from selling water, the increased water use would res y+ eater circulation of fresh water through the system, including the water tower; and the intercity connection would serve as the first link in a future emergency water source for Lino Lakes when Hugo completes its own water system. Mr. Powell stated the joint powers agreement would exclude service to the Hugo commercial /industrial area. He noted the Metropolitan Council has indicated their gravity interceptor will be installed next spring. He reviewed its intended alignment and noted it would provide sewer service to these southerly properties but negotiations are occurring regarding the metering locations. He stated that Elmcrest Avenue is a concern since Lino Lakes wants to provide a north/south access. One concern is access to the Construction Laborers Training Center so vacation of the roadway will have to be closely reviewed. He noted the area where the City of Lino Lakes is purchasing ten acres to accommodate wetland ponding. Mr. Johnson asked if this will require additional buffering next to residential areas. Mr. Powell stated they have already addressed the buffer issue and Lino Lakes would work Planning & Zoning Board December 8, 1999 Page 10 with the developer on the trail corridor to be part of any vacating action. He noted the greenway which follows the creek. Ms. Lane asked if Lino Lakes will continue to serve these residences once Hugo's system is in place. Mr. Powell explained that a valve would be installed at the border and the water supply will be closed once available from Hugo. Ms. Carlson stated her concern about the need for trees on the Lino Lake's side if Elmcrest is closed off with a trail on a portion of Elmcrest. She stated that another concern is traffic patterns since this would cut off a north/south route. She noted the West Oaks area in the southeast corner uses Elmcrest for their access. Ms. Carlson stated that closing Elmcrest will also close off the best emergency vehicle route to the southeast corner of Lino Lakes. Mr. Powell stated this development would be coordinated with the police and fire departments as well as other City staff. Ms. Carlson asked if a bridge over the freeway is bei has not seen that option presented in any of the do review and public safety review would be neces closure. considered. Mr. Powell stated he ation. He stated that a traffic crest is considered for Mr. Dunn stated this involves two distinc wants additional revenue from sellin opening up the entire area and sell' to think that having water in the from Lino Lakes since sewer $10,000. one question is whether the City to'' s ated that he sees little objection to not ater as possible. He stated that it is naive rcial area would attract development away ssue and a water well can be constructed for Mr. Powell stated an adequate we would cost much more than $10,000. Mr. Dunn stated that the closing of Elmcrest is a different issue and the City will need to decide what will happen with the strawberry patch. If it is to be a commercial or industrial area, then Elmcrest will be needed to serve that property. Mr. Dunn stated that Lino Lakes already has a reciprocal agreement with Centerville and if their water pressure goes down, Lino Lakes will make money selling them water. He stated his support to sell water to Hugo to generate revenue. Chair Schaps stated that he also supports providing water service so the City can sell water to Hugo. C. EDAC Update Mr. Johnson stated he is the liaison with the Economic Development Advisory Committee and within the last month they decided to become more proactive. Since Mr. • • • • • Planning & Zoning Board December 8, 1999 Page 11 Wessell has decided to stay a while longer, they have begun work on a 5 -year economic development plan which will be updated yearly. He stated that the City has been developing industrial property slowly yet surely with some TIF incentive. However, commercial development has not been growing as quickly. Mr. Johnson stated the intention is to identify specific sites on which to develop commercial or industrial uses that are already zoned appropriately. He stated they will also identify potential sites for redevelopment. Mr. Johnson stated the entire Zoning Ordinance will need to be reviewed after the Comprehensive Plan is adopted so anything recommended by the EDA can be considered. Mr. Johnson stated this effort is just beginning and he wanted to provide an update. With regard to the JADT project, Ms. Carlson stated meetings are being held to reach resolution on funding of the roadway and the City may move the project ahead and assess for the roads. Mr. Johnson advised that the City of Blaine is looki development at the intersection of I -35W and Lex' Fleet Farm and a Target. He noted if it also co difficulty for Lino Lakes to attract a grocery s of projects being undertaken but they need o as use the City's financial incentives in the b eriously at a commercial venue that could include a a g -ry store, it may present r. Johnson stated there are a number t moves ahead at a steady rate and to Mr. Dunn asked if there would be nge to make it known to developers that the City is friendly to developers, is ` t the case today. Mr. Johnson stated the City Chamber of Commerce and significant support coming from that organization r ated if they are specific in selecting sites and aware of conditions that would be involve d, it would present a "welcome mat" to the City. Ms. Carlson commented on the importance of improving the atmosphere of the City which will help businesses interested in coming to Lino Lakes. Mr. Johnson stated planning and finance EDAC subcommittees have also been formed and he thinks an inventory will be generated shortly. D. Other Mr. Dunn stated that this will be his last meeting and wished the Planning Commission well in the new millennium. Chair Schaps thanked Mr. Dunn for his contribution to the Planning Commission during his tenure. Planning & Zoning Board December 8, 1999 Page 12 Mr. Johnson extended his appreciation as well for Mr. Dunn's great effort on behalf of the City. Ms. Carlson stated her position is also up for reappointment as she will assume her seat on the City Council. VII.

The site is approximately 40 acres in size and zoned Rural. The existing land use map indicates the site as rural. The draft comprehensive plan guides the property for rural development through 2010 and low /medium density residential on the western edge and commercial on the eastern edge some time after 2010. There are considerable wetlands on the parcel, particularly on the eastern edge along Centerville Road. A single family home is under construction on the north/west corner of the parcel. This area was previously considered for a minor subdivision that would have split a 10 acre piece from the balance of the site. The P & Z approved that minor subdivision but the applicant withdrew the request prior to council consideration. The owners of the property would now like to split the site into two parcels. Parcel A would contain 15 acres, Parcel B 24.9 acres. Both parcels will meet the requirements of the ordinance which require a minimum of 10 acres in size with 330' of lot frontage. Staff would recommend approval of this split with the following conditions: 1. An additional 27' of right of way for Centerville Road shall be dedication to Anoka County along the easterly border of the parcel. 2. The single family home currently under construction on the westerly parcel must connect to City water with the understanding that there is a deferred assessment on the balance of the property payable upon future development of the site. This differed assessment shall also apply to the newly created Parcel B and also be payable upon future development of that site. 3. Any development on the easterly parcel shall require Park Dedication as outlined in the Subdivision Ordinance OPTIONS: 1. Approve minor subdivision with conditions outlined above 2.

Parcel 1A contains 2.47 acres and a single family home, Parcel 2A contains 2.82 acres, the total site is 5.29 acres. The City's Zoning Ordinance requires a minimum of 10 acres as the property is Zoned Rural, guided rural in the existing land us plan and located outside the MUSA boundary. However, both parcels are considered pre- existing non- conforming lots of record. The vacant parcel is buildable as it exists. The draft comprehensive plan guides the area for residential and the specific parcels for medium density residential. Mr. McDonough is asking for a minor subdivision that would allow the sale of the existing home on a one acre lot with the combination of the balance of the site and potential sale of that parcel as a 4.24 +/- acre parcel. There is a large wetland on the north /west corner of the property which would not preclude any future construction on that parcel. The surrounding property is described as follows: East side North side South side West side - one 39,000 sq. ft. lot with a SF home, unsewered - three 45,000 sq. ft. lots with SF homes, unsewered - sewered residential development in Shoreview - large wetland adjacent to sewered residential development in Circle Pines A feasibility study was prepared by the City in 1997 to determine the cost of extending utilities to this property and others on Baldwin Lake Road. At that time 34 units were proposed for this site. No further action has been taken on this extension. It would be cost prohibitive to extend utilities to this property without a substantial redevelopment of the site. The Zoning Ordinance provides "Habitable single family homes constructed prior to July 13, 1992 may reduce their lot size to a minimum of one (1) acre if the balance of the property results in a parcel of ten (10) acres, or is serviced by public sewer...." Although this division will not create a parcel 10 acres in size, it will provide a larger parcel than currently exists which is more in keeping with the intent of the ordinance. Granting approval to the minor subdivision will require approval of a variance for lot size. We believe this is a unique situation not created by the property owner that would fit the variance criteria listed below. Findings of Fact. In considering all requests for variance or appeal and in taking subsequent action, the City shall make a finding of fact: 1. That the property in question cannot be put to a reasonable use if used under conditions allowed by the official controls. 2. That the plight of the landowners is due to physical circumstances unique to his property not created by the land owner. That the hardship is not due to economic considerations alone and when a reasonable use for the property exists under the terms of the ordinance. 3. That the hardship is not due to economic consideration alone and when a reasonable use for the property exists under the terms of the ordinance. 4. That granting the variance requested will not confer on the applicant any special privilege that would be denied by this ordinance to other lands, structures, or buildings in the same district. 5. That the proposed actions will be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the ordinance In response to the criteria above we would comment that the property can be but to a reasonable use as it currently exists, however, this minor subdivision would create a lot for the existing home that is the same as the adjoining properties and bring the vacant parcel in closer compliance to the existing provisions of the ordinance. The current lot configuration was created at a time when the minimum lot size was something less than 10 acres. That situation is unique in relation to today's requirements. The hardship arises from the lot configuration and unavailability of utilities. No special privilege is being extended, this item was reviewed on a stand alone basis and determined unique to the property in question. The spirit and intent of the ordinance is to allow existing homes, construction prior to 1994, to subdivide down to 1 acre and allow for future redevelopment in an appropriate manner. Staff would, therefore, recommend approval of this minor subdivision and variance with the following conditions: 1. The applicant provide a current survey of the two new parcels. The lot containing the dwelling shall be one acre in size with 227' of lot frontage and configured as indicated on sketch B which is attached. The vacant parcel shall be combined into one 4+ acre parcel. 2. The applicant shall provide documentation that there is an alternate site for a septic system on the existing homesite should the existing system fail. 3. Park Dedication shall be required for any new construction on the larger parcel per the Subdivision Ordinance. • • • • OPTIONS: 1.

This work is scheduled to take place between April and June /July of 2000. The project area is from Sunset Road north easterly to the 35W/35E junction. Shafer Contracting would like to set up their batch plant on the Tagg property (Artic Sandblasting) at 7504 Lake Drive. Temporary, portable concrete batch plants are needed to conform to MnDOT's specifications /limits for concrete placement within 30 minutes of production. This location will provide quick access, reduce traffic conflicts with hauling trucks, eliminate the need for Shafer to dismantle and relocate their plant during resurfacing, and provide timely completion of the project. They have signed a lease agreement with the property owner. In review of this item City Staff has concluded that an interim use permit may be the appropriate vehicle to facilitate this proposal. The property is Zoned LB, Limited Business and is the only LB District within the City. We would propose an Ordinance Text Amendment that would add "Temporary Concrete Batch Plant" as an Interim Use within the Limited Business Zoning District. We would also anticipate, for P & Z information, that in the near future this entire site (the Town Center) will be rezoned to a more appropriate category to facilitate the future plans for the Town Center. This interim use permit would not affect the ultimate development of the area. We see the LB Zoning District in this located as a very temporary condition. A copy of the Ordinance Text Amendment is attached for your information. The Interim Use Permit purpose, procedure and intent is also attached for your information. The City Engineer and the Environmental Board have reviewed this request. Their comments are attached and the conditions of approval incorporate their suggestions. We would recommend approval of an Interim Use Permit to Shafer Contracting for a Temporary Concrete Batch Plant at 7504 Lake Drive with the following conditions: 1. The City Adopt Ordinance No. xx -2000 adding Temporary Concrete Batch Plant as an Interim Use to the Limited Business Zoning District. 2. The Batch Plant shall be located as far west as possible to avoid negative impacts on the wetlands at the eastern edge of the Tagg property. 3. City Staff shall monitor the project site to ensure no negative environmental impacts and compliance with MPCA guidelines. 4. Hours of operation shall not be subject to the restrictions of Ordinance No. 04- 96 due to the nature of this project. 5. Should access to the freeway occur directly from the Tagg property, location and site grading shall be reviewed and approved by the City Engineer. 6. The use shall terminate upon completion of the project and the site shall be returned to its pre- construction state. Shafer Contracting shall provide communication to the City stipulating this completion date along with a bond or letter of credit in an amount determined by the City Engineer to guarantee site restoration. OPTIONS: 1. Approve Ordinance Text Amendment to add Temporary Concrete Batch Plant as an Interim Use to the Limited Business Zoning District. 2. Approve Interim Use Permit for Temporary Concrete Batch Plant. 3. Return to staff for further discussion.

We look forward to helping the City of Lino Lakes work together to transform the information and ideals presented as a result of this effort into a better way of growth planning and environmental management in our community. The Environmental Board would like to thank the consultants for their diligence and perseverance during this project. We are extremely pleased with the product. We have officially accepted the final reports and we recommend approval by the City Council. Mr. Trehus made a motion to approve the above recommendation and forward to City Council, Ms. Frisk - Thompson seconded the motion, motion passed unanimously. Environmental Board Initiatives Job Descriptions The Environmental Board added the phrase "and integrate conservation development principals in all types of development" after the last sentence, �,=� +, .e the period of number two on Essential Job Functions. Mr. Trehus mad 00 on to approve the job description and pass it on to Dan Tesch, Director of � stra "� Mr. Kukonen seconded the motion, motion passed unanimou Project Review Concrete Batch Plant Mr. Asleson introduced the t 3 . s = . ° ":sect: The Minnesota Department o portation will be resurfacing 35W between Sunset Drive and the Junction with hi erstate 35E during the period of time of approximately between April 17, 2000 and project completion time. Contract time is 61 working days. Temporary, portable concrete batch plants are needed to conform to MNDOT's specifications /limits for concrete placement within 30 minutes of production. The Tagg property was chosen for this site based on close proximity. Mr. Asleson stated he felt there should be a 100 -foot buffer to the East. He further stated he has brought this to the attention of Schafer Contracting and will coordinate with them on the issue in the spring. After discussion, the Environmental Board made the following recommendations: 1) Move site as far west as possible to avoid negative impacts on wetlands on eastern side of Tagg property. 2) Encourage staff to monitor project to ensure no negative environmental impacts and to ensure contractor complies with MPCA guidelines. Mr. Kukonen made a motion to approve the above recommendations, Ms. Frisk - Thompson seconded the motion, motion passed unanimously. Jeff Smyser, Mary Kay Wyland January 6, 1999 Shafer Contracting CUP 1. The applicant's statement that there is not sufficient area to set up a batch plant in the right of way is not accurate. MnDOT has indicated that the plant could be set up within the right of way but would have to be relocated when the construction activity shifts from the southbound lanes to the northbound lanes. 2. Typically the City limits the working hoursfor contractors to the following: Monday- Friday lam to 7pm Saturday 9am to 5pm Sunday No work This is done as a courtesy to the residents in project areas. However. As the residents most affected by this activity are the landowners, I don't recommend We place this restriction on this CUP. Also, limiting the working hours would likely eliminate this site as an option for the contractor. 3. I assume the trucks will access the plant site through the existing driveway to the Tagg property. They should indicate whether or not they will be accessing the freeway directly from the Tagg property. 4. MnDOT has indicated this project may actually extend into July. This should be clarified. If you have any questions, please let me know. ! • • S‘aile4, Ggottactucg. ea. , `list. • • • Land Use Application - Zoning Text Amendment - Interim Use Permit Applicant Shafer Contracting Co., Inc.

The contract covers the concrete pavement resurfacing of the existing 35W roadway surface. MN /DOT specifications require placing concrete within 30 minutes of production, therefore temporary portable concrete batch plants are set up on the project to meet these specifications. Normally, there is sufficient MN /DOT right -of -way within the project limits to set up and operate the batch plant. In this case, there is insufficient right -of -way to set up the batch plant. The Tagg property was chosen because of its close proximity to the project and the fact that it is currently used for light industrial type uses. Also, it is located at the only interchange within the project limits — County Road 23/Lake Drive. This request is for a one time use during the months April through June of 2000. I -35W Project Details Contract time is 61 working days including Saturdays beginning on or about April 17, 2000. Working days do not include inclement weather days. S4 it ectgPwadds Goa. , Tort. The project will be constructed in 2 phases. The southbound lanes will be constructed in phase 1; the northbound lanes in phase 2. Each phase will require operation of the concrete batch plant. During each phase there is preparatory work prior to concrete paving and finishing work following the paving. Therefore, the batch plant will not operate continuously during each construction phase. Operating Plans The concrete batch plant will be setup at the location shown on the attached layout sheets. We will provide dust control and traffic signs on all haul routes. We will provide temporary erosion control for the plant site. Our operation will conform to all requirements of the MPCA. The site will be restored to its original condition upon completion of the I -35W project which should be in late June 2000. • • w cn w LAKE 55304 13300 55449 C J J 12900 BLAINE' 12500 MAIN 5 121ST AVE NI BLAINE 55449 11700 8- TECKLA CT1 004 01411: 14500 COLUMBUS 1ni00 13700 *RETAIL ST Fi 145TH AVE TWP State Project No. 280-49 T.H. 35W Reconstruction LOIS 1.A Y�pP OAR LA F1x.1501I C0AP(C110041 Iro0AITY 11.004000 4- MEA00W CT 5 -N EAT N ER CT 6 -TERRA CT 7.1(4 CT IS SAVANNA CT Arctic Sandblasting Property Batch Plant Site VILLE pia RY41 7T n1DR u 000880 /3110 ST 00 0- 7800 77111 ST E of RE r REINS 51 RO can ST E 1' 10900 `.

The draft ordinance is attached for your information and includes the following special provisions: a. The storage area is landscaped and screened from view of neighboring uses and abutting residential zoning districts and public rights -of -way. b. Storage area is fenced in an appropriate manner. c. Storage area is blacktopped or concrete surfaced unless specifically approved by the City Council. d. All lighting shall be in compliance with Section 3, Subd. 4.H. of this Ordinance or other lighting standards in place at the time of project approval. e. The storage area does not take up parking space or loading space as required for conformity to this Ordinance. f. The property shall not abut property zoned for residential, rural, or business use, including land in a neighboring city. "Abutting" includes across a street. "Abutting" does not include properties that touch only corner -to- corner. g. The property shall not abut I -35W or I -35E. h. The storage area shall not abut a school or a public park. i. The storage area shall not abut a public right -of -way. j. The ratio of storage area to building footprint shall not exceed 4:1. Outdoor storage as an accessory use was originally a part of the Zoning Ordinance in this section but was deleted when the City adopted Ordinance No. 31 -97 which made open and outdoor storage an interim use in the LI Zoning District, when the storage is a principle use. This action was taken to facilitate the exterior storage for Molin Concrete as an interim use. We believe it should remain in the ordinance as a conditional use when it is accessory to the principle use. The City's Economic Development Advisory Board has concurred with this recommendation. We would, therefore, recommend approval of this Ordinance text amendment. OPTIONS: 1. Adopt Ordinance No. xx -2000 2.
