Minutes of March 25th meeting approved -as submitted.
CE KLEIS, GALE REHNBERG .(REHNBERG REALTY), LYLE THQRi DSGARD,
quired about subdividing 120 acres of Lawrence Kleis property irk
Section 3 into 5 to 40..acre parcels. Also had questions regarding
roads. No comprehensive plan has been developed for that area.
LEONARD ANDERSON, 2538 Mayer Lane, St. Paul, had questions about
the N 1/2 of SE 1/4 of Section 3. This land connects to the
Lawrence Kleis property described above. PZC suggested that these
two parties get together regarding a road plan.
MR. & MRS. NORBERT SCHILTGEN, 4148 Hudson Road, are interested in
purchasing Lot(s) 1 and/or 2, Block 3 of Mary Grobner property,
Lake Elmo Park Addition. PZC suggested that the following actions
be taken before the Schiltgen's go any further:
1. Don Raleigh should research the title on the streets to
determine whether the streets surrounding Lots 1, 2, and
3 are public streets.
2. Village Engineer should be instructed to make a field
inspection of tracts 1 and 2 in regard to any potential
drainage problems that may be incurred by the construction
of a house.
3. Percolation tests should be taken at the location of
the proposed drain field on each or both lots.
ELMER RICHERT, DICK SMITH (BARTON CONTRACTING CO.), presented a
letter stating proposals for the gravel pit. A hearing is to be
scheduled for April 22nd. Village Clerk is to notify the Village
Attorney to advertise hearing date. The Village Engineer should
take a look at this whole proposal with the idea that it may be
taken out below the level of water of Lake Jane.
TONY FRIEDRICH, WHITE HAT RESTAURANT, appeared regarding a special
use permit for a lighted sign in front of his business. The
present sign is below road level. The new sign would be lighted
from the inside, approximately 4' x 5', and would be 5' higher than
the present sign. This appears to be a permitted use, requiring
a building permit and approval of the building inspector.
Motion by B. Folz, seconded by D. Lyons, to recommend approval of
the building permit, subject to the building inspector's approval.
Motion passed unanimously.

JOE RODGERS, LAKE ELMO HARDWOOD LUMBER, appeared to discuss
building an additional storage building for Lake Elmo Hardwood
at 11320 Upper 33rd St. No. This would be a 60' x 200' pole
type building for storage purposes. John Mueller was present
to advise Mr. Rodgers on the building requirements. Mr. Rodgers
will reappear at a later date with a finished plan.
HOWARID & GALEN SPRINGBORN, 8709 Demontreville Trail, appeared
to discuss proposed recreational use of approximately 220 acres
of Springborn property in Section 3. This is a concept -type
proposal; PZC is agreeably inclined to making this a recreational
area. The Springbor.n's will reappear at a later date with a
more detailed plan.
MR. & MRS. DONALD J. OLSON, 2932 Legion Ave. No., requested a
variance to put in a 42" fence around their property. Our
ordinance, page 43, item F states that, "fences in excess of 30"
in height extending across front yards shall require a special
use permit." PZC is wondering why he is requesting a variance.
PZC recommends that Duane Grace be appointed to the Planning and
Zoning Commission to replace Charles King.
Motion by T. Williams, seconded by J. Sovereign, to set a meeting
with the Park Board on April 22. Motion passed unanimously.
Meeting adjourned at 12:20 a.m.
Respectfully submitted,
Sandy Phernetton
Rec. Secretary
