CASE NO. CPA/95-20 & ZAW95-21 Comprehensive Plan Amendment and Rezoning ISD #622 Elementary/Middle School Oakdale/Lake Elmo The Planning Commission held a public hearing on this request at its June 12, 1995 meeting and approved a comprehensive plan amendmentalong with a zoning map amendment for athletic fields for a new elementary/middle school which is being built in the City of Oakdale. At the Planning Commission meeting, ThomasG. Armstrong submitted a letter regarding his request for Installing fencing around the perimeter of the site. The representatives of ATS&R Architects, representing the school district, would prefer not to place a fence around the perimeter of the site. Attorney Filla did not recommend the City attach a fence as a condition of approving the comprehensive plan amendment. If you are going to add conditions to the rezoning, it should be because you have some data indicating to you that it is a necessary condition to allow such a use reasonably in that zoning category. He has not see any data indicating a perimeter fence should be a necessary condition of the rezoning. Tom Armstrong provided pictures showing the lake which is about 60' from the propertyllne and asked I there was any way the council could address their concern for the safety of the children would be appreciated. During the Site and Plan review, the Commission can address the fence and baliflelds which have the potential of lights and bud speakers.
