M/S/P Dunn/Hunt — to acknowledge the map of study area as presented at September 2, 1997 meeting as the official map of the Village Area. (Motion passed 5-0). 2. Recommendation for Moratorium Planner Terwedo explained there is a concern that the City may receive development applications that may not meet the vision of what the commission would like for the area. Our existing zoning for the Village Area regulates the land uses that are permitted. The Village Commission recommended the City place a one-year development moratorium on the Village Area including new subdivisions and commercial development in the General Business Zoning District. This would give them time to complete their work program on the preparation and adoption of a Village Plan. Attorney Filla indicated the City needs to have specific goals for a moratorium. If there is a legitimate planning purpose, the City can have a moratorium. This would be a one-year moratorium and cover subdivisions and commercial land. An article will be inserted on the proposed one-year moratorium in the newsletter and the commercial and undeveloped landowners will be notified. The Council suggested a joint Planning Commission/Village Commission meeting with the intention of exploring Transfer of Density. (Motion passed 5-0). M/S/P Hunt/DeLapp — to direct the Village Commission and Planning Commission to discuss at the September 22" d PZ meeting a DRAFT ordinance for a development moratorium for the Village Area with a public hearing scheduled for October 15 with Transfer of Density Rights included as something the City may want to do.

(Motion passed 5-0). 7. PLANNING, LAND USE AND ZONING: A. Request from Steven Weber for clarification of zoning regulations Steven Weber's father purchased 5 acres on Lake Elmo Avenue (just south of Highway 36) approximately 20 years ago. This lot was permitted when our Rural Residential zoning district required only five acres. The Future Land Use Map shows this area as (RED) Rural Estates Density. Because of the odd configuration of the lot, Mr. Weber feels that half of the lot is unusable and that the City should permit him to subdivide. Steven Weber would like to buy 2.5 acres from his father and build a home. The Council considered this a request for clarification of a zoning regulation and this particular section of the City is zoned Rural Residential which requires 10 acre lots. If he was going to develop the property, the Future Land Use Map show this property as Rural Estates zoning which requires 20 acres. The City would have to change the comprehensive plan, change the zoning requirements, and grant a minor subdivision with a variance because it can't meet the 2.5 acre minimum according to the ordinance. M/S/P Hum/DeLapp — that the Council consensus is not to do anything; to not change the lot size, but keep our 10 acre lot requirement in RR zoning in the code book; that granting this request would allow a legal non -conforming lot to become further non -conforming. (Motion passed 4-1:Dunn:these odd size lots should have been identified during the moratorium when the entire City was studied, would like to have the option of creating 2.5 acre lots.) B. Ordinance rezoning from RR to OP: Applicants: William McCully and R-Properties (Hamlet Estates) This is a zoning map amendment requested by R-Property/William McCully to rezone a 56 acre parcel of land form Rural Residential to Open Space Preservation District. The zoning request is in conjunction with the concept plan for Hamlet Estates located north of State Highway 5, west of Beaut Crest. This parcel of land has been identified on the Future Land Us Map as an Open Space Development Area. M/S/P DeLapp/Hunt — to adopt Ordinance No. 9715, An Ordinance amending Section 300,07 of the Zoning District Map of the 1997 Lake Elmo Municipal Code rezoning 56 acres from Rural Residential to Open Space Development requested by R-Property/William McCully, located north of State Highway 5, west of Beaut Crest, based on the Findings of Fact listed in the City Planner's Review, recommendation of approval by the Planning Commission and the rezoning is consistent with the comprehensive plan and zoning regulations. (Motion passed 5-0). C. Concept Plan (Hamlet Estates) Planner Terwedo reported the concept plan for Lake Elmo Hamlet Estates, located north of State Highway 5 and east of Beaut Crest, consists of 26 lots (26.65) which is calculated on 57 acres. Washington County records show 58 acres. Some family lots are oriented on a village green; therefore, a density bonus for the development of a village green. The proposal indicates an open space area along Highway 5. The Parks Commission meets on September 9 to review the proposal in order to determine if parkland would be LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES SEPTEMBER 2, 1997 needed on this site. The connection from 371' Street has been deleted. No connection has been identified to 34th Street. If this connection is not made, a connection should be identified to the west which would connect to the 3M property. A wetland treatment system is proposed. Oakdale has been notified regarding amending the water agreement to provide water service to the site. There's about 9 acres in the proposed lake area which will range in depth from 2' to 12'. Goal is to maintain water quality. Planner Terwedo reported Rehbein has kept in contact with the Soil Water and Conservation District as stated in letter dated April 28, 1997 regarding the creation of the wetland. The wetland will be built in two seasons, and Terwedo stated strict timelines could be placed in that the development would not occur until completion of the wetland creation. The homeowners Association would be responsible for the pond. M/S/P Hum/DeLapp — to approve Case No. OPC/97-26 with the City Planner's Recommendation and the Planning Commission Recommendation as presented with the additional conditions of alerting the new buyers of the existing crematorium and possible expansion, clarification of allowable density (25 or 26 lots) involved depending on final survey, including staff direction to contact the City of Oakdale regarding an amendment to the water agreement and to work with Rehbein Co. on acceptable conditions for the grading permit as listed on page 3 of the City Planner's report. (Motion passed 3-2:Dunn: Has a concern on density bonus, the concept plan might meet the Open Space Ordinance, but is not in the spirit of Lake Elmo to have such dense development, there isn't anything in place to monitor the wetland treatment system; Conlin believes in the #5 condition: No density bonus be given for the village green, the water amenity has been expanded for surface water runoff for other properties and does not want to burden the Home Owner's Association with the responsibility of maintaining the pond). D. Site and Plan Review: Lake Elmo Bank Roger Knutson, Lake Elmo Bank, is requesting to increase the number of parking stalls by 31. There are currently 78 parking spaces. There is no lighting proposed. Additional landscaping included around the parking area adjacent to the pond around the north perimeter was added as a condition of approval. Drainage has been approved by the City Engineer. When lot 2 is developed, the impervious surface calculation will be based on 7.86 acres. M/S/P Hunt/Conlin — to approve Case No. SP/97-46 Site and Plan Review for the development of 31 additional parking spaces for the Lake Elmo Bank based on the 4 conditions of approval as amended and based on the Findings stated in the City Planner's Review and the Planning Commission's approval..
