LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES 10-2-84 PAGE 6 The Engineer advised the Council that the parcel near lst and Immanual is the extension of Immanual, just east of Ideal Avenue. The public has been using it as a dirt road although it never has been right-of-way. This is a good opportunity for the City to pickup this parcel in case we ever want to open it up as a right-of-way. The other parcel in Lanes DeMonteville Country Club Addition (actually three twenty foot lots) is adjacent to a piece of property that the City already owns. This area is one that has been considered for an off -site drainfield in the 201 Program. It fits in with -the City's plans and this is a good opportunity to pickup this land. M/S/P Mazzara/Dunn - To adopt Resolution 84-55 authorizing the City Staff to fill out the required forms and submit them to Washington County in an effort to obtain two parcels of tax forfeited land. (Motion carried 4-0). F. 201 Program - General Update The Engineer informed the Council that he held a meeting on September 26th for the residents that will be served by off -site drainfield systems. Of the 27 people that were invited, 9 came. Fraser asked if the invitation included the property owners where the proposed off -site drainfields would be located. The Engineer responded that they would be written a separate letter as he felt there might be conflict if there were residents there in favor the proposal and the owners of the property who may not be in favor of the proposal. G. Rezoning application to General Business from Agriculture by Leonard Hanson for Rockin "L" Trailer Sales (CUP-14) along I-94 near County Road 17. Mrs. Louann Hanson was present and explained to the Council why they are requesting this rezoning. Their intention is to expand their business to include a Ford tractor dealership, which would include a new building approximately 40 x 60, with the possibility of an expansion in the future for a showroom. The present use of the land would continue and they would continue to live on the site. The llamas would remain as she sells the wool from these animals. Fraser asked if there were minutes or notes from the Planning Commission regarding the public hearing they held on this application. She felt that the Council should review this material in order to properly consider this application. (The minutes were not available). The Council reviewed the memo from the City Planner in which he lists three options that the Hanson's have regarding their proposal. The second option stated that "If the objective is to allow the current business operations to expand into tractor sales, a conditional use permit may be sought under the current zoning district. This would allow existing residential and agricultural uses to continue as permitted uses, while allowing the development of an "ag-related" business".
