HomeMy WebLinkAbout04-23-90 PZMThe Planning Commission is an advisory body to the City Council. One of the Commission's functions is to hold public hearings and make recommendations to the City Council. The City Council makes all final decisions on these matters. Lake Elmo Ordinances require that certain documents and information be included in applications. The Planning Commission may postpone consideration of an application that is incomplete and may for other reasons postpone final action on an application. For each item, the Commission will receive reports prepared by the City Staff, open the hearing to the public, and discuss and act on the application. If you are aware of information that hasn't been discussed, please fill out a "Request to Appear Before the Planning Commission" slip: or, if you came late, raise your hand to be recognized. Comments that are pertinent are appreciated. AGENDA LAKE ELMO PLANNING COMMISSION APRIL 23, 1990 7:30 p.m. MEETING CONVENES 1. AGENDA 2. MINUTES: April 9, 1990 7:45 p.m. 3.

Presentation by ReCOMP (Continued) Mr. McNeily, ReCOMP, apologized for missing the last PZ meeting. He reinterated what was said at the March 26th PZ meeting. When asked why this location was chosen, McNeily stated they chose Lake Elmo because of the business association with Mogren Brothers, easy access to Freeway, and demand for sod in the growing eastern residential areas. The consensus of the Commission had not changed from the March 26th PZ meeting. 5. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: Administrator Kueffner asked for PZ input on the following question: "At the Interchanges of 13, 19, and 15, would the PZ consider the possibility of extending Highway Zoning back 1/2 mile rather than a 1/4 mile because of the property the landowner looses because of the Interchange?". Steve DeLapp: What is the purpose for the City of having commercial there. Just because somebody is going to make some money off of it, that is the only reason we are doing it. It's not because any of us are going to get a new job and be paid minimum wage in one of the LAKE ELMO PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES APRIL 9, 1990 PAGE 2 buildings down there. We would not be able to afford most of the housing in Lake Elmo. The Council should decide the size and number of buildings appropriate for the Freeway. Having made that decision, they should put them together in as critical a mass as possible, even if it means one square mile long at a particular intersection, then that would be fine. Or if it means stretching it out everywhere, plus having more, then that would be the way to go. I would be opposed. I see no justification that we can even fill up what we got. Ed Stevens: It seems to me if they are losing 5 acres, they would be getting 40 acres to make up for it. It seems disproportionate. If you wanted to balance them for the loss, go back only half that much. If they get this additional land at the Interchanges, how long do you think it would be before there is a demand to infill the area between these major Interchanges. I would oppose the bulges. Ann Bucheck: If we want to keep Lake Elmo more a rural City than Woodbury, leave the map as is. This would allow development there, but it wouldn't be as great. I would favor keeping it 1/4 mile with no bulges. Jim Arkell: I would rather see one section set aside for development so we don't get development just at the interchanges. I see the request as restricting uses other than commercial uses of the land. It is basically stating "future use of the land is commercial so you probably don't want to build a house here". I would be opposed to the bulges. Lonny Thomas: I oppose the bulges. I don't see a need to compensate someone for something that I don't see as being taken. Rob Enes: I would favor the bulges. Richard Johnson: So much depends on what be. I see no reason, strictly from a land the I-B district. I would not be in favor other benefit to the City that, he was not the ordinance is going to use, why we should expand of it unless there is some aware of. Rita Conlin: Depending upon the ordinance, I could accept the bulges. Wyn John: I would be in favor of the bulges. If you are going to have business development in that area, then you should plan for the most effective business development you can achieve. The following Commission members volunteered to work on the Freeway Business or the Residental Estates Subcommittee and report back to the PZ.
