Council member Dunn indicated she will bring up for discussion at Wednesday night's
Highway 36 meeting, the request for a signal light at the intersection of Highway 36 and
CSAH17. Funding for this signal light was approved and provided to Washington
County.
8. CITY ENGINEER'S REPORT:
Council Member DeLapp received concerns on the tall grass from residents on 50t"
Street. He said he told the residents if they wanted to mow the grass, they probably could,
as the City is short staffed and unable to maintain the landscaping as well as usual.
9. PLANNING, LAND USE & ZONING:
A. Resolution 2002-105 Preliminary Plat of Lake Elmo Business Park
The City Planner reported at its September 23, 2002 meeting, the Planning Commission
made a recommendation to approve this proposed plat of 28 acres into 7 commercial lots
and 2 outlots. The application was first presented to the Planning Commission in June,
2002. The Commission determined supplemental information as in a traffic study was
required to enable them to complete their review and recommendation. That work was
not completed and received by the City until September.
LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES OCTOBER 1, 2002
The traffic study revealed that the new traffic generated from the uses assumed in Lake
Elmo Business Park, when added to the existing traffic, would not result in intersection
congestion issues at either Manning or Lake Elmo Avenue.
The Planning Commission recommended a condition that no specific uses or site plans
are approved with the preliminary plat. The uses and site plans documented by the
applicant are considered only to be illustrative, based on the current GB zoning of the
site, and, as assumptions on which to base a traffic study.
Planner Dillerud explained this property has been zoned GB for many years. In
September, the Council directed staff to publish a hearing notice to consider rezoning
several sites along I-94 from GB to LB in order to be compliant with the 1990 and 1997
Comprehensive Plan. The hearing will be held in October by the Planning Commission.
After receiving input from the City Attorney, Dillerud requested consideration to table
the preliminary plat until this time the rezoning hearing is held and allow them to
reconsider the rezoning. The clock didn't start until September 5 when the traffic study
came in. State Law states once the preliminary plat is approved for one year period all
regulatory actions of the City are frozen.
Attorney Filla explained the potential problem is the City code is more restrictive than the
state, and he believes a court would endorse the City's code. If the date of June 5"' is for
a completed application, then the City requires action by October 5, 2002. If the
completed application is September 6 when the traffic study was submitted, then the 120
days start at that point. If the City does not act in the appropriate timeline, the application
will be approved. From that date for the next year, no changes in the comprehensive plan
or official controls, which does include zoning, can be done on this property.
Tim Freeman, Folz, Freeman, Dupay & Assoc., representing Patrick O. Regan, reported
the developer is frustrated with time of this project, which has been worked on since
May. The staff report cannot find any discrepancies with the plat, and the Planning
Commission recommended Preliminary Plat approval. He said the developer would
object to the rezoning and requested the Council approve the subdivision.
Council member DeLapp suggested they take the Attorney and Planner's
recommendation. Council member Siedow thought postponement was the wrong thing to
do because it has been zoned GB all this time.
Pat Regan, developer of Lake Elmo Business Park, stated he was not aware there was
going to be an extension of the timeline until today, and, it was because they called the
staff. He thought the clock started ticking when the application was submitted on June
5t". At that time they met the application requirements. The request for supplemental
information, which he though was what the 120 days were for, did not delay the clock.
Mr. Regan said his intentions are not to make a legal challenge, but to follow the
application guidelines and comply with the ordinance. He would like to have GB
designation because it allows more uses.
LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES OCTOBER 1, 2002
Mayor Hunt stated he was not certain the rezoning from GB to LB was even going to
happen because this land has been zoned GB for a long time. He said the developer has
been working on this plat in good faith, and the Council needs to deal with the plat that is
before them.
M/S/F DeLapp/Armstrong — to table this application for preliminary plat approval.
(Motion failed 2-3 Siedow, Dunn, Hunt.)
Council member DeLapp indicated in the LB zoning the intensity would be less with
higher quality and did not like to have a commercial development this intense so far from
downtown.
Council member Armstrong stated she would like to see larger buildings rather than
many small buildings built there. Tim Freeman said it is possible to have a larger use,
but this would depend on the market. Mr. Regan stated in the marketplace this plat does
not have sewer and water service, which is a major affect in the intensity and on the
marketplace.
M/S/F Siedow/Hunt - to adopt Resolution No 2002-105, A Resolution Approving the
Preliminary Plat of Lake Elmo Business Park. (Motion Failed 2-3 Dunn, Armstrong,
DeLapp)
Council member Dunn wanted to know exactly what the delineation of uses between LB
and GB uses. She said she was very uncomfortable when you're talking big box retail.
Mr. Regan stated he observed Council member Dunn's vote as "yes" for this motion on
approval of the Preliminary Plat. Mayor Hunt apologized he did not clarify the results of
the motion, but he did hear Council member Dunn vote on the negative side.
Katie Nath, part-owner of this parcel and a resident of Lake Elmo, observed Council
member Dunn voting "aye" along with Council member Siedow and Mayor Hunt. She
asked that the differentiation between uses in LB and GB be presented if this is Council
member Dunn's issue.
Mr. Regan stated they would put up a sign on the property and respond to the market, but
would be responsive to the City's zoning codes and plat guidelines.
M/S Armstrong/DeLapp - to table this application for approval of the Preliminary Plat of
the Lake Elmo Business Park. Attorney Filla pointed out this motion cannot be made by
Council member Armstrong because she was not on the prevailing side of the motion.
M/S/P Dunn/Siedow - to reconsider the motion to approve the Preliminary Plat. (Motion
passed 3-2:Armstrong, DeLapp)
LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES OCTOBER 1, 2002 7
M/S/ Siedow/Hunt — to approve Resolution No. 2002-105 approving the Preliminary Plat
of Lake Elmo Business Park.
M/S/P Armstrong/DeLapp - to table the motion. Motion Failed 2-3 Siedow, Dunn,
Hunt.)
M/S/P Siedow/Hunt - to approve Resolution No. 2002-105 approving the Preliminary
Plat of Lake Elmo Business Park based on a Finding of Compliance with Section 400 of
the City Code and the recommendation of the Planning Commission. (Motion passed 3-
2: Armstrong, DeLapp)
B. Zoning Variance (Shoreland Overlay) — McAdams/Mogren
The City Planner reported the Planning Commission adopted a recommendation to
approve this application for variances to allow construction of a new house on a 2-acre
lot, where the front (street) setback would be 25 feet (R-1 standard of 30 feet); and the
minimum OHW setback would be 56 feet (Shoreland Overlay Standard of 100 feet). The
application had been first considered by the Commission at its September 9 meeting; and,
tabled to permit the applicant to consider measures to mitigate the impact of the OHW
variance within the intent of the ordinance. Those suggested measures included moving
the proposed house 5 feet closer to Lake Jane Trail, and, affirmative measures to preserve
the tree cover and lake vegetation that exists on and adjacent to the parcel.
Bob McAdam explained this will be his own home, and it would not be intrusive to the
neighborhood.
Council member Armstrong stated she would make a motion to deny based on the
following findings:
1. This home is far too close to the Ordinary High Water Mark in the Shoreland
District. They would be 56 feet away when 100 feet is required.
2. An additional variance is requested from the road side of five feet.
3. This is not the least variance they could have requested. The house looks to be
127 x 40 feet including a triple garage (for resale).
4. The applicant proposes using a mound septic system. This is not advisable as a
first system especially this close to the water and in a lot this heavily wooded.
5. Economic reasons must not be any consideration in granting a variance.
6. The separation of the drainfield from the neighbor's well to the west is in
question.
7. This land was deemed unbuildable for good reason. It has a propensity to flood,
and we can't ever be sure that won't happen again.
8. Granting this variance will set a precedent to the other landowners in the area who
own lots within the Ordinary High Water Mark.
9. There are alternative reasonable uses of this land.
Council member DeLapp noted this application has overlapping setbacks; there is a
negative 5' of house that can go in. This house is quite a bit larger than other houses on
LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES OCTOBER 1, 2002
Lake Jane. He thought the $9,000 land value was a reflection of whether it was buildable
or not. He said there is no attempt to try to give back to the lake. Lake Elmo has a
shoreland ordinance to protect the lakes, but there are other council members that make
no value of City ordinances.
Council member Dunn asked why, previously, was this considered an unbuildable lot?
Attorney Filla recommended adding condition #9. That the Covenant is recorded before
issuance of any building or development permit or sale of property by Mogren.
M/S/ Dunn/Siedow — to adopt Resolution No. 2002-106, as amended by adding
Condition #9, Approving variances to allow an OHW setback of 56 feet and a front
(street) setback of 25 feet per plans staff dated as modified by the conditions of approval,
based on Findings of compliance with Section 300 variance standards, and the
recommendation of the Planning Commission.
Council member DeLapp stated he is being vilified for opening up the code book. He
was hoping to engage in a discussion to possibly make the house thinner. Council
member Armstrong asked what is the hardship.
M/S Hunt/Siedow—to call the question
M/S/P Dunn/Siedow — to adopt Resolution No. 2002-106, as amended by adding
Condition #9, Approving variances to allow an OHW setback of 56 feet and a front
(street) setback of 25 feet per plans staff dated as modified by the conditions of approval,
based on Findings of compliance with Section 300 variance standards, and the
recommendation of the Planning Commission. (Motion passed 3-2: Armstrong: there is
no hardship; DeLapp).
C. Resolution 2002-107 Garage Location, 8573 Hidden Bay Trail Ivan
Skoog
The City Planner reported Ivan Skoog, 8573 Hidden Bay Trail, applied for a building
permit to construct a 24 x 24 detached garage structure at a location the parcel that would
place the new structure approximately 20 feet closer to Hidden Bay Trail that the existing
home and attached (tuck under) garage. Section 300.13, Subd. 31 of the City Code
prohibit detached garages nearer the front lot line than the principal structure in this
zoning district (R-1) without City Council approval by Resolution.
Mr. Skoog indicated it would be difficult to place the detached garage to rear of house
would be difficult due to the pie shape of the lot and grades to the south. By placing the
detached garage west of the house and setback to the house front building line would
present grade or side yard setback problems. The neighborhood is heavily wooded and
the aesthetic impact of the applicant's proposed garage not differ markedly whether it is
located as proposed or in line with the existing house.
LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES OCTOBER 1, 2002 9
M/S/P DeLapp/Siedow — to adopt Resolution No. 2002-107 approving placement of the
detached garage nearer the front lot line than the principal structure for Ivan Skoog, 8573
Hidden Bay Trail. (Motion passed 4-1:Armstrong: the garage is too big).
D. Resolution 2002-108 Metropolitan Council -Comp Plan
As directed by the Council, the City Planner prepared a draft of a resolution to be adopted
by the Council advising other governmental units in the 7 County Metro area of what has
happened to Lake Elmo, why that happened; and what the Met Council's decision
regarding Lake Elmo could mean for the other local units in the future on most any policy
matter that METC might choose to become involved in.
Mayor Hunt provided a cover letter to go to the communities. The resolution will be sent
to the Legislative Commission of Local Govt.
M/S/P Dmm/DeLapp — to adopt Resolution No. 2002-108, as presented by the City
Planner. (Motion passed 5-0.) Council member Siedow stated it's too bad we have to get
to this point because he would have liked to have worked with the Met Co. He did not
believe the Met Council should have the total say in how the City should develop.
Attorney Filla had contacted a select few area attorneys that are noted for their land use
experience and expertise. While most of those individuals are well aware of the Lake
Elmo/METC issues, and appear interested in representing the City and were investigating
potential professional conflict with other clients and/or cases with which they are
involved before indicating their interest in representing Lake Elmo. The Council will
hold a special meeting next week to interview three land use attorneys and asked them
how they could defend the City.
The Council set up a workshop for October 8 at 5:15 to interview the land use attorneys.
This will be before the Finance Committee meeting.

Committee. Motion passed 5-0.)
M/S/P Dunn/DeLapp - to form a five person Facilities Committee-- 2 from the Planning
Commission and one from the MAC and possibly a Parks Commission rep. Members at
large could get in involved. (Motion passed 5-0.)
LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES OCTOBER 1, 2002 10
Council member DeLapp stated John McPherson, West Lakeland, said the township
would adopt any resolution requested their support of the Lake Elmo Comprehensive
Plan being adopted by the Met. Council. DeLapp noted that it's been nine months since
the Olinger land rental agreement was removed from the January agenda.
M/S/P DeLapp/Dunn — to have the staff bring an update on the Olinger Land rental
contract with revisions to the October 15 meeting. (Motion passed 5-0.)

entire zoning ordinance.
