Mr. Smyser distributed a letter from Jacqueline and Joe Jarosz, 5299 Grand Avenue
future homeowner in the first or second phase, which expressed concerns regarding the
rezoning of Clearwater Creek Phase III and request that it remain rural. He asked that the
letter be entered into the public record.
Mr. Curt Deppard, 6614 LaCasse Drive, came forward and asked for clarification on
several issues. He asked if the PDO is the first try and if the street widths will be smaller.
He asked how many homes will be priced above $250,000 and how many builders will be
allowed in the development.
Mr. Smyser indicated the PDO is the first step in approval for a development and the
street width will be smaller to accommodate for more open space.

Mr. Quigly stated that the majority of homes built in the development will be priced
above $250,000. The number of builders allowed in the development has not yet been
set. He stated most builders will purchase a block of lots. At this time he anticipates
approximately six builders within the development. He added he does have control over
the architectural design.
Mr. Deppard stated residents in the 1st and 2nd phase are concerned about low priced
homes within the development. He asked about money being set aside for parks when a
development goes in. He expressed concern regarding a park being developed for the
first two phases. He asked if the 1st and 2nd phase homeowners will be part of the
homeowners association and have to pay dues.
Mr. Smyser stated the homeowners association will address ownership and stewardship
of the open space. The park and trails will be owned by the City. Park equipment that is
put in will be determined by the Park Board and input from the neighborhood when the
neighborhood is built up. He added that park funding does come from land dedication or
cash dedication from residential and industrial development.
Ms. Wyland noted that if a cash dedication is made it is placed General Fund and
not set aside for a particular park. When development is , ompleted, the
Park Board will hold neighborhood meetings to Bete ;. • t ='park is developed.
The 8 acre park in phase III will be for the wh • h meowners association will
not be responsible for the park land.

Mr. Deppard stated s c +nc ed about too many builders leading to a large mix of
style. He asked the • eloper keep the number of builders to a limit. He stated there is a
lot of freeway noise in the area and asked if the City or developer can do something about
it.
Mr. Smyser addressed some concerns of the residents. He stated the number of homes
planned in this development is fewer than was originally planned. He stated that other
conservation subdivisions around the country have shown the lots selling at equal or
higher than standard subdivision price because of the open space. He stated this project
was put together with the City's environmental consultants and they feel the plan protects
a larger part of the environment. He stated he will discuss a buffer for noise with the
developer in the next stage.
Ms. Tracy Kuny, 6706 Clearwater Drive, stated she was one of the first buyers in phase I.
She stated the billboard on Otter Lake Drive advertised executive homesites. She stated
she was shocked when phase II was developed. She indicated residents are concerned
about the changes that occur midway through development. She asked if there is a way to

set the standard and then enforce it. She stated there is a difference in the covenants
between the phases and a lot of confusion. She asked that the confusion be eliminated.
She also asked about the discussions that were held with residents.
Acting Chair Johnson advised that "executive" is a marketing term that anyone can
advertise. Covenants are attached to the lots. Covenants are not enforced by the City.
The developer provides a list of lots sizes but there is no guarantee regarding the prices.
Mr. Quigly noted that nothing has changed between phases. Pricing has always been
consistent. The covenants were the same between phases. There is confusion regarding a
basketball hoop. A resident put one in. The only way to enforce the convenants is to go
through the court system. He noted they discourage fencing but cannot prohibit it. He
stated the standards are published and distributed in the packets. All builders receive the
packets.
Mr. Deppard asked when the plan becomes cast in stone.
Acting Chair Johnson advised that if the plan is approved tonigh

Ms. Kuny stated that e standard of notifying residents within 600 feet is only 20 homes
in their case. The bulk of the homes are further than 600 feet. She stated the lack of
interest from residents was because of the lack of notice.
Mr. Smyser stated great efforts are made to notify the public. Typically, the City Council
will not hold another public hearing. However, the Council is willing to listen to
residents. He stated the notification process is a difficult process.
Ms. Dory Martinez, 2316 LaCasse Court, asked if the park will be connected to the 3rd
phase. Ms. Wyland stated there is too much wetland to connect the property so no
trailway was planned.
Ms. Martinez asked how many park lands were dedicated for phase I and phase It Ms.
Wyland stated two areas were dedicated for park land. The land will not necessarily be
developed for play area. They may remain open area. When the development is more
complete there will be a neighborhood meeting.

Ms. Martinez stated that it is not out of line to expect that 151 homes in the area be
notified of the project. A mailing of the whole area could have been done.
Mr. Dunn suggested staff develop guidelines for R -1 and R -1X within a PDO. That will
determine the size of the houses and garage. It will also set the price of the homes. A
policy should be set for future projects.
Mr. Corson made a MOTION to close the public hearing at 8:37 p.m., and was supported
Mr. Trehus. Motion carried 5 -0.
Mr. Corson indicated a condition regarding R -1 minimum house size be added as a
condition of approval.
Mr. Schilling stated when the plan first came forward he was sensitive to residents
concerns. He stated those concerns have been cleared up tonight. Mr. Quigly has done a
good job and the project should move forward.
Mr. Dunn stated he feels good about the new process. Great i
have been shown. The plan meets the City's objectives.

Mr. Corson made a MOTION to approve se d MUSA amendment of the
existing Comprehensive Plan for the so cres of the site. The MUSA allocation
would become effective only at final plat approval. The MOTION was
supported by Mr. Dunn.
Acting Chair Johns oul: vote no to the project. He is very happy with the
preservation plan. •ev=r, t s is a very large development for homes over $250,000.
The City needs a var y of housing. The enjoyment of this project should not be limited
to a specific price range. Townhomes and club homes in the price range of $125,000
would be desirable. The City has young families, single people, and older residents who
cannot afford homes in that price range.
Mr. Dunn agreed that the City needs a variety of housing. Planning for a mix needs to
come at the beginning of a project, not mid stream. He suggested a note to staff be made
regarding more affordable housing.
Mr. Corson stated he agrees the City needs variety. This plan is too far down the trail to
change it now.
Mr. Trehus stated this area is not suitable to the type of housing Acting Chair Johnson is
referring to. Lino Lakes is not keeping up with the average price for new homes. He
stated he will vote no to the plan because he is against the expansion of MUSA. He

Mr. Gary Uhde, Developer for Behm's Century Farms, introduced himself to the Board.
He stated a neighborhood meeting was held and the issues of the residents were
addressed.
Mr. Johnson explained that the lot depth variance for Lots 1 and 2 was brought on by the
trail placement in the rear of the lots. There is enough room on the property for two lots
without a trail. City staff encouraged the placement of the trail on the back of the lots.
He stated that if the variance is not approved, he will request the elimination of the trail.
He stated the developer supports all conditions recommended by staff, except for
combining Lots 1 and 2.
Mr. Powell suggested the trail be considered as part of the drainage and utility easement.
Therefore, a variance would not be needed.
Ms. Maureen Orvik, 195 Appaloosa Court, came forward stated she moved here from St.
Paul. The view from her house is currently piles of dirt. The true nature of why people
moved to Lino Lakes is being lost. With the development she will see the backs of
houses. The development was not part of the original plan. She ted she is fearful Mr.
Uhde will revise the plan again. She asked that before the pla :i', . •roved, the
developer finish what he has started. The pond is only ha l ' ``, tated she had
revision after revision with the builder regarding well � ; p rchased her home in
May, 1998. She stated she did see a plan of th- t iti ®m . he plan always included
the trees. She stated her development wil .,n r ,, sible park until her kids have
outgrown it. She stated the pond maxi , " $ .3 . ,'' be 8 feet. The pond is now 20 feet.
There is a very dangerous deep e pond in the backyards.
Ms. Wyland noted ee it > • : removed.
Mr. Johnson referrer . `a 'ap the development and stated the map was in every
homeowners packet. " he change in the plan is the character of the cul -de -sac. The new
homes are actually further away from existing homes than in the original plan. He stated
the original plan was to remove the dirt from the pond when approval for the 6th Addition
is received. The pond was to be completed at that time.
Brandon Almich, 183 Appaloosa Lane, stated that parks are very important to residents.
He indicated he is aware that they may not get the park developed right away. He asked if
there are funds set aside for trails and if there is a timeline for the trails. Mr. Powell
stated the paving of the trails is funded through Park Funds. The developer is required to
develop an 8' trail. Trail paving is prioritized each year. He indicated he does not have a
timeline for the trails.
Mr. Almich stated he is concerned about the trails being overcome with weeds. He
indicated the residents are willing to help with trail funding in this area. He indicated he
understands Mr. Uhde's position regarding the pond. He asked if the City can approve
the 5th and 6th Addition so work can begin as soon as possible to complete the pond.

Acting Chair Johnson explained that the staging of projects is up to the developer. Ms.
Wyland added that the City Council did establish a limit regarding the number of homes
built per year.
Mr. Smyser stated the residents are not concerned with phasing. The pond completion is
a big issue. Completion of the pond should be discussed. People should not have to live
in a construction zone. A solution should be worked out to complete the pond this year.
Mr. Almich added he is willing to look for a solution to work with the City and the
developer regarding pond completion.
Mr. Steve Dahl, 7625 Appaloosa Lane, expressed concern regarding safety issues. He
stated there are many children in the neighborhood. The pond has a steep slope with a
drop off. The pond needs to be completed. He stated the date regarding tree planting has
been changed many times.
Mr. Uhde brought forward disclosure booklets for each addition. ` e read the first item
regarding ponds. He noted that it states the pond configuratio pth will change
until the final excavation. He stated the pond cannot be il approval on the

It was the consensus the Planning and Zoning Board to eliminate condition #5. Mr.
Powell stated condition #3 would cover the trail issue.
Mr. Dunn suggested residents go to the Park Board with their concerns regarding the
park. The park issue and project are two separate issues. He stated something needs to
be done regarding the pond. There is an immediate safety issue. He indicated he is
supportive of Mr. Smyser's suggestion.

C. PUBLIC HEARING, Fogerty Investment, 524 Apollo Drive, Rezone from
GB, General Business to PDO/Light Industrial
Mr. Smyser stated the applicant has submitted a new application to rezone the property to
Planned Development Overlay. The current applications include the rezoning to PDO,
and the PDO development plan. Because the only reason a PDO is needed is that there
will be more than one building on a lot, staff is combining the preliminary and final PDO
development plans into one.
Mr. Powell added he is working with the County to trade a roadway access for a driveway
access because the number of accesses allowed on Apollo Drive is limited.
Acting Chair Johnson declared the public hearing open at 10:22 p.m.

Mr. Smyser entered into the record a letter from Ms. Debbie Lawrence, Health Partners.
The letter strongly requested the City deny the rezoning.
Mr. Smyser entered into the record a letter from Dr. Patrick Courneya, North Suburban
Family Physicians. The letter asked that the City deny rezoning.
Mr. Smyser entered into the record a letter from Dr. Steven Slatten, Dr. Douglas Berg,
and Dr. Julie Zimmerman, North Suburban Family Physicians. The letter asked that the
Planning and Zoning Board deny the rezoning.
Ms. Debbie Lawrence, HealthPartners Services, Inc. stated HealthPartners was very
involved with picking the site for North Suburban Family Physicians Clinic. The City at
that time was very concerned about the clinic being the gateway to the City. She stated
they had asked for another access to the site and were denied. She expressed much
concern about truck traffic in the area. Light Industrial has very broad uses. She
explained they have a clinic that is located next to a Pot Pourri business which has caused
many problems from the smell. Four buildings doing manufactu • and air conditioners
will cause a lot of noise. The noise issue needs to be addresse stated the clinic's
customers are still trying to locate the clinic. She stated shs . o c cerned about
parking. Light Industrial use can be densely employee based Thchave another clinic
that is located next to a Fed Ex business. There have been tnerous problems there with
overflow parking.
Ms. Lawrence continued stating Light Industrial zoning cannot limit the type of
development. She noted t ti goes in there now may not be there in three years. She
stated they came to it eg. -:.in their concerns over this site, compatible uses, and
the shared drivewa . new plan would result in construction work for a long time.
She stated she is ve disappointed that the City may approve the rezone.
Dr. Doug Berg, Physician at North Suburban Family Physicians, stated he has the same
concerns as Ms. Lawrence. He stated they have been in the community for 12 years. The
property is zoned as a business zone. He stated there are health concerns regarding
fumes. There is no criteria regarding what can go in there. Public image is very
important to the clinic.
Mr. Bill Fogerty, Fogerty Investment, came forward and reviewed the plan. He stated the
City had the same concerns as the clinic. He reviewed the building plan and noted the
loading docks will not be visible. He stated building A and B will be built this year.
Occupancy permits will be obtained in 1999. Building C and D will be built in 2000 or
he will lose the T.I.F. He stated he has interest from a company that distributes for
Medtronic's. They manufacture Germane stints and are very clean.

Acting Chair Johnson asked what the City will get for the PDO. The City needs to
protect the clinic because they were there first. Shared access will cause too much
congestion. More landscaping is needed along the freeway.
Mr. Schilling agreed with Acting Chair Johnson adding he is not satisfied with the
parking.
Mr. Trehus expressed concern regarding truck traffic. Diesel trucks produce too many
fumes.
Mr. Smyser noted the applicant is willing to work with the City to address the issues of
the clinic. The PDO will not come before the Board again. He suggested the applicant
and clinic work together.
Mr. Fogerty stated a lot of money is involved. He stated that if Building D is eliminated a
PDO will not be required. Staff has recommended the rezoning to Light Industrial.
Ms. Lawrence stated she encourages growth in the City. Howev the City made a
commitment to them. There is a conflict regarding more lands a =+ $ . The clinic does
not want to lose visibility to the freeway. Previous histo t is easier to come

the political issues.
Mr. Schilling stated he would like to see a continuance based on a drop dead date.
