Mr. Gelbmann abstained as he was not present at the July meeting. Motion carried. III. OPEN MIKE: Mr. Brian Webster was present to discuss the proposed revision of the Accessory Building Ordinance. He stated that he is building a home in Lino Lakes and would like to construct a 1,000 square foot garage attached to his home. He also indicated that there are at least two other people considering building in Lino Lakes who would like oversized garages.

ACTION ITEMS A. 93 -9 -P, Behm's Century Farms, Subdivision /Rezoning Chairman Schaps advised the Board and the audience that a letter has been received from Mr. Gary Uhde withdrawing his subdivision and rezoning request for the Behm's Century Farms project. This item will, therefore, not be discussed. Mr. Uhde indicated that he may be resubmitting his proposal in October. B. 93 -5 -P, Oaks of Lino, Aspen Lane Subdivision Planning Consultant Brixius advised the Board that additional hydrology is needed to review this plat due to the fact that 1 • PLANNING & ZONING BOARD August 11, 1993 the majority of the property is indicated as a Zone A on the Flood Insurance Rate Map. Staff would, therefore, recommend that the Board continue the public hearing on this item until the September meeting. Al Robinson moved and was supported by Tom Mesich to continue the public hearing until the September meeting of the Planning & Zoning Board. All voted aye. Motion carried. C. 93 -15 -V, Quail Ridge, Variance for Lots 8 & 9 Planning Coordinator Wyland explained that following final approval of this plat, the Developer attempted to record the document with Anoka County and was advised that a "trail easement" could not be shown on the plat - the area must be indicated as "Park ". Therefore, Lots 8 and 9, Block 3 become deficient in lot width at the building set back line by 7.5 feet. These lots do, however, exceed the minimum square foot area requirement with approximately 16,000 square feet for Lot 9 and 35,000 square feet for Lot 8. The Board was further advised that the Developer has been working with the Staff on the relocation of the trail due to extensive wetlands and that the location shown was determined as the most appropriate. Staff would recommend approval of the variance request based on the findings of fact outlined in the staff report of August 11, 1993. Mr. Corson, representing the developer, was present and stated that they worked very hard in developing this plat to avoid any variances and that they thought they had succeeded until it came to actually recording the plat. If the Trail could be shown as easement - they would have succeeded, however, the County can not accept it shown as Trail - thus the need for the variance. Mr. Schones made a motion to approve the variances for Lot 8 & 9 as recommended in the staff report of August 11, 1993 and was supported by Mr. Robinson. All voted aye. Motion carried. IV. ADJOURNMENT: Upon the unanimous consent of the Board the meeting was adjourned at 6:55 P.M. 2
