LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES APRIL 3, 1990 PAGE 5 A. Comprehensive Plan The question was raised as to the proposed Future Land Use in the well advisory area because this could have a dramatic effect on the size and design of the proposed water system. The unplatted property in the Well Advisory Area is currently zoned low density on the future land use map because of the contamination (with the exception of the current R-1 zoned area). Councilman Williams didn't feel it was financially feasible to have 10 acre lots because the homes would be required to hook up to the water system. Therefore, he would support designating this area as RRD (3 per 10) after the water system has been in place. The Council concurred it was not economically feasible to keep this area RAD; therefore, they would revise the zoning to RRD. It was noted the county's proposed boundary for the public water system area does not coincide with the existing well advisory area. M/S/P Williams/Graves - to revise the Future Land Map, for the purpose of the Public Hearing, to designate the Well Advisory Area as RRD (3 per 10) after public water is available. (Motion carried 5-0). The Council asked Larry Bohrer to have a counterproposal to the design parameters that were put forth in the County's report using average lot density of 3 per 10, verify the design and make an analysis of the O&M costs on the 3 per 10 basis by Thursday. This information will be evaluated at the April 5th meeting. In regard to the Comp Plan, Admin. Kueffner asked if the Council would consider extending the Highway Business Zone 1/2 mile, instead of 1/4 mile, at the major interchanges along I-94 to compensate the property owner for loss of property. M/S/P Hunt/Graves - to schedule a Special City Council meeting for April loth, 6:30 p.m., to discuss the Comp Plan providing the Planner, Mike Black will be available and notify the Planning Commission of this meeting. (Motion carried 5-0). The Council asked Mr. Black to incorporate the Council members' revisions to the Comp Plan.
