Page 11 . November 27, 1995 Mounds View City Council Dan Hill, 2808 Bronson Drive, stated his concern is in the degradation of the lot sizes. The existing properties are deep lots which have been particularly attractive to residents. He was concerned what would happen to the values of those properties where the lots are basically cut in half. Mayor Linke explained that in comparison to other lots in Mounds View, they still will be larger than most. Mr. Hill also asked what assurance the residents will have that the properties do not become rental units in the future. Mayor Linke explained that the city does not have control over that. Another unidentified resident stated he has been told that the property directly across from Mr. Hill has been sold. He wondered if Mr. Beach intends to put in a cul-de-sac there. Mayor Linke explained that any proposals such as that would need to be approved by the city. Mr. Beach stated he has ut a down a ment on the ro ert but it has not been p p Y P P Y closed on. He intends to fix the property up and then sell it. He does not intend to keep it as rental property. Mayor Linke closed the public hearing at 8:20 p.m. Mayor Linke explained that this public hearing was to introduce the ordinance. The city must then wait at least 14 days before they can ask for the adoption of the ordinance. There is then a 30 day waiting period before that action becomes law.
