LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES JULY 6, 2004 5 M/S/P John/Johnston – to adopt Ordinance No. 97-134, An Ordinance adding “Beauty Salon” as an allowed Conditional Use in the Limited Business Zone; and adding “Day Spa” as an allowed Accessory Use in the Limited Business Zone, as recommended by the Planning Commission. (Motion passed 4-1: DeLapp couldn’t see that a beauty salon belongs in a residential area and didn’t think the City should be continually adding more uses to LB.) M/S/P John/Johnston - Ordinance No. 97-135, An Ordinance amending Section 150 of the City Code (Definitions) to include a definition for “Beauty Salon” and a definition for “Day Spa”, as recommended by the Planning Commission. (Motion passed 5-0). Council member DeLapp questioned why motorcycle sales were included as an acceptable business in a Limited Business area. Planner Dillerud responded this item was added because it apparently already existed at some point when the LB district uses were initially adopted. B. Comprehensive Plan Amendment & Rezoning – Olinger: Resolution No. 2004-053 and Ordinance 97-136 The City Planner reported that the Planning Commission recommended to amend the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map from RAD to SRD; and, to rezone from RR to R-1 a 4.5 acre portion of a 14.5 acre site that is proposed by Jean and Dan Olinger for those Plan and Zoning Map actions in total. He stated that the majority of the Commission determined that the 10 acre remainder of the applicant’s site should continue to be classified as RAD and zoned as RR. The Planner noted that there was an application years ago for platting of this area into multiple R1 lots. The history was unclear as to why this parcel is guided and was zoned RAD. Tim Freeman, Land Surveyor and Land Planer with FFE, stated Jean and Dan Olinger wanted to keep this parcel open and accommodate the Olinger’s short term plan to accommodate a parcel for their daughter to build a house. Freeman noted that the applicant did agree with what the Planning Commission recommended. Council member Dunn voiced concern with the close proximity of the landfill. Council member DeLapp asked for consideration of rezoning to OP. Dillerud responded he didn’t sense the applicant wanted to do this. M/S/P Johnston/John - to table until Mayor Hunt returns. Lee Hunt left the meeting at 8:27 p.m. (This agenda item requires 4 votes to pass.) (Motion passed 4-0). M/S/P Johnston/John – to take off the table the agenda item for discussion now that Mayor Hunt had returned. (Motion passed 5-0). M/S/P Johnston/John - to adopt Resolution No. 2004-053, A Resolution amending the Comprehensive Plan to reclassify a portion of the Jean and Dan Olinger property in Section 10 from RAD to SRD based on the recommendation of the Planning Commission (Motion passed 4-1: DeLapp)
