Mounds View City Council July 22, 1985
Regular Meeting Page Two
Director Thatcher introduced Bob Wuornos and Zack
Johnson, from Wuornos and Associates, the firm that
has been retained to do the review of Districts 6
and 12 of the Comp Plan.
Mr. Wuornos outlined the areas they have been asked
to study and explained the procedure they are follow-
ing and what their findings have been to date. He
also read into the minutes petitions that had been
received regarding the review and suggestions for
the area.
Mayor Linke explained the Council is not anticipating
doing any rezoning at this time. They are working
to bring the Comp Plan and zoning map into compliance,
and they are gathering information at this point.
James Trimbo, 7880 Groveland, stated he had bought
his home 16 years ago, and a request was submitted to
the City at that time to zone some of the property
commercial, and it was turned down and multiple family
dwellings built. He stated he has had nothing but
trouble with the multiple dwellings and would rather
see commercial.
Linda Bankston, 8025 Groveland Road, stated she would
like to see the area stay quiet and would like to see
low density residential and not large apartment
buildings.
Jim Gable, 7934 Fairchild, stated he was not opposed
to R -2, but they must leave a buffer between the
residential and commercial areas, and would favor
having that area as R -2.
Jon Thomas, 8040 Groveland, asked for a clarification
of what a special use is.
Director Thatcher explained what permitted uses are
for B -3 zoning, and what would be allowed under it.
Attorney Meyers pointed out that the K -Gas was zoned
B -3 before the City became incorporated in 1953.
Jerry Blanchard, 8005 Groveland, stated he finds it
hard to believe the City can move backwards, and
they should stay away from strip zoning. He stated
he objects to the fact that a meeting was held
specifically for the businesses and did not include
the residents.
Mounds View City Council July 22, 1985
Regular Meeting Page Three
Duane McCarty, 8060 Long Lake Road, stated they must
remember the consequences of downzoning and the
potential for lawsuits.
Director Thatcher clarified that there are approximately
eight locations in question.
Don Lias, an attorney representing K -Gas, stated they
did not attend a business meeting. He also explained
that the Comp Plan is not zoning but rather a plan for
zoning. He added he would recommend zoning the
radiator repair shop as commercial, and they could then
perhaps develop it better. He also stated the Comp
Plan could be amended to allow a small B -3 area.
Grace Thomas, 8040 Groveland Road, stated her property
abaitts the radiator repair shop and they have had many
problems with the business operation. She stated she
feels the area off Highway 10 should be residential
only.
Councilmember Hankner asked if the residents are will-
ing to pay for litigation that most likely would result
from rezonings, and whether they believe the rtat of
the taxpayers in Mounds View should subsidize tnat
1itigatio
Phyllis Blanchard, 8005 Groveland Road, stated she
was speaking as a resident and not a Councilmember,
and stated she is not opposed to change but does not
feel District 6 should change to anything but should
remain residential.
Mr. McCarty stated he feels that as a community, the
people will stay together, and the Council should
consider compensating the people who may have their
zoning changed.
Mr. Trimbo stated he was opposed to spending any money
on this.
Bill Frits, 8072 Long Lake Road, stated they must look
at the overall picture, and they must quit decreasing
lot size and filling up the City and overworking the
services.
Steve Dahlke, 8030 Groveland Road, stated he lives
directly behind the radiator repair shop and he has
had considerable problems with that operation and
specifically the dogs there.
Councilmember Hankner stated the Council would like to
hear from as many residents as possible, and they
were welcome to call or write any of the Councilmembers
if they did not wish to speak publicly.
Mounds View City Council
Regular Meeting
Peg Mountin, 8287 Red Oak Drive, asked the residents to
think of Highway 10 as the front door to Mounds View.
She stated she would like to see it look good and work
well, and they must work something out now and not let
this continue on.
Mayor Linke closed the public hearing and reopened the
regular meeting at 8:31 PM.
The Council took a 5 minute recess.
Mayor Linke called the meeting back to order and
opened the next public hearing at 8:36 PM.
Robert Johnson, an attorney with Super America,
read a letter received from a Coon Rapids resident,
concerning their operation there. He explained
the resident had originally been opposed to the
station, and read her comments stating she was
pleased with the operation of the station. He
added they will also be receiving a letter from
the City of Coon Rapids shortly, stating that
they feel the project has gone well and they have
not had problems with Super America.
Mike Holt, a representative with Super America,
presented site plans and reviewed the details
planned for the development. He pointed out
that the lighting will be directed outwards,
toward Highway 10, so it would not bother the
residents of the Mary Anderson development. He
also stated that traffic studies have shown that
tl'e traffic that would use Mounds View Drive
would be local residents and not thru traffic.
Mitch Wonson, of Benshop and Associates, stated
his firm had done the traffic studies for Super
America and he reviewed their findings, showing
the anticipated traffic flow and what percentages
would use what roads, and during what hours. He
also explained that Super America is willing to
dedicate a corner of their property for a right
turn lane from County Road I onto Highway 10,
which should help alleviate any stacking problems
that might occur, although they are not antici-
pated.
Mayor Linke explained no decisions will be made
by the Council tonight and they are just gathering
information to use in making a decision. He also
explained that when Mounds View Drive was planned,
t was with the intent that it would be a service
road, both for the residents of the area and the
businesses that would front on Highway 10.

Regular Meeting Page Five
Carol Golden, 7417 Parkview Drive, asked why an
entrance was necessary off Mounds View Drive.
Bob Hartmann, of Super America, explained that a
driveway there would enhance the property, as well
as benefit the entire neighborhood. He added that
the Super America station would be a greater
convenience for the people of the area rather than
other areas.
Bob Holmbeck, 2596 Mounds View Drive, stated he does
not want to see the zoning change.
Lance Raygor, 2584 Mounds View Drive, presented a
petition to the Council, against the rezoning of
the property, from neighborhood residents.
Joe Masanz, 2626 Lake Court Drive, stated he felt
this was only the beginning and if it were approved,
there would be more business generated, with a lot
more traffic. He added that he bought with the
knowledge that the zoning was B -2.
Marcella Raygor stated she does not mind driving
to other Super Americas or gas stations ire the area
and she reviewed the stations in the area and how
far a drive they were for her. She added she
feels that a rezoning would downgrade their property
values.
Arden Wahlberg, 2642 Lake Court Drive, stated he
checked the zoning before signing a purchase agreement
on his home, and he does not want to see the zoning
changed.
Jeff Pinotti, 2644 Lake Court Drive, stated he had
also purchased his home based on the current zoning
and he would like it to remain that way.
Bob Wagner, 2590 Mounds View Drive, stated he would
like to see the zoning remain as it is.
Mrs. Raygor stated that she does not feel a right
turn lane onto Highway 10 would be of any benefit
as the traffic is too heavy during rush hour to be
able to get on.
Dale Kremers, a representative of Kraus Anderson,
explained they have had many requests from other
buyers for the property, that would be allowable
under B -2, but Kraus Anderson has turned them down
so far because they would be a much higher usage
and busier. He added that an office building was
never proposed by Kraus Anderson for that lot. He
also invited any interested resident to come down
Mounds View City Council July 22, 1985
Regular Meeting Page Six
to their office to see the requests that have been
received, so they can realize what could be put
there without any rezoning.
Clerk /Administrator Pauley reviewed what would be
allowed under both B -2 and B -1 zoning.
Mayor Linke clarified that the hours of operation
could be limited by the City.
Attorney Meyers pointed out that Super America
has agreed that if the project is approved, they
will remove the structure at any time that it is
no longer used for that purpose, which would
eliminate the problem of abandoned gas stations
which has happened before.
Mr. McCarty stated they must look at the project
from a PUD standpoint.
Mayor Linke closed the public hearing and reopened
the regular meeting at 9:30 PM.
Mayor Linke closed the regular meeting and
opened the next public hearing at 9:30 PM.
Kathleen Tacke, 7433 Park View Terrace, stated
the literature from Mary Anderson says that a
medical office building is proposed for the
site in question.
Mayor Linke closed the public hearing and reopened
the regular meeting at 9:31 PM.
Clerk /Administrator Pauley asked that Gorecki
and Company be added under Item E on the consent
agenda, for $2,476.92.

Director Thatcher reviewed the activities of the
Community Development and Public Works departments
for the second quarter of 1985. He stated he was
very pleased with the way the Public Works foreman
position has worked out. He also reviewed the
upcoming activities for the Public Works department.
Councilmember Hankner expressed concern that the City's
building permit fees might be high, and the possibility
that they might be preventing home owners from making
changes to their homes.
Clerk /Administrator Pauley explained the City has always
been below the State averages for building permit fees,
and when they were last increased three years ago, they
did not bring them up to average at that time. He
stated the City's fees are less than many surrounding
cities.
Mayor Linke stated the Council had invited the Chair-
man of the Planning Commission to the meeting this
even;,; to open up the lines of communication. He
addeu they will be doing this will all the various
commissions.
Peg Mountin stated they would like to keep the
Planning Commission size at the minimum level of 7
members until they have completed the Comp Plan
update, as it is very difficult to train in new
members as they go and continue working on a project
of this nature. She also stated she would like to
see the City pass on information that is received
on training or seminars that would be beneficial to
the Planning Commission.
Councilmember Hankner reported she had received a
suggestion from a Commission member who would like
to see the City present a letter or something in
writing to the various commission members, perhaps
once a year, recognizing their achievements, which
could then be something they could put in their
resume or personnel files in their private life.
Clerk /Administrator Pauley stated they could send
a letter out at the end of each year, from the Mayor
and Council, acknowledging that persons participation
for the past year.
Clerk /Administrator Pauley reviewed the purpose of
proposed Ordinance No. 397.
