-6- 3) a four-foot variance to the parking requirements • for front yards finding that there will be no undue hardship for denial due to the condition of the parcel involved, but rather that granting these variances would aggravate the existing visual and traffic problems in that neighborhood. and adjacent properties would be adversely affected if the variances should be granted. Motion carried unanimously. In commenting on the Public Hearing to be conducted February 19, by the Planning Commission on the HUD assisted townhouse development proposed for the Hedlund property, Mr. Jones suggested the Council might be interested in a similar development in New Brighton along County Road E near the Country Club Market. Mr. Jones then reported the unanimous recommendations of approval from the Planning Commission for the signage request from Mico Oil Company. Motion by Councilman Sundland and seconded by Councilman Letourneau to grant permission to the Mico Oil Company to erect, at their gas station at 2400 37th Avenue N.E. , a sign of sixty square feet for the purpose of price identification only, taking into consideration the fact that the requested sign area is less than the allowable • total of square footage permitted under the City Sign Ordinance and the fact that the Mico Company policy is not to use company identification. However, it is. understood that granting' this vari- ance precludes an additional sign for company identification in ex- cess of six square feet. The Council finds further that denying the variance might create a hardship for Mico who cannot use the additional standard price numbers in their existing signage. Motion carried unanimously. Noting the Public Hearing on the Comprehensive Plan will be held before the Planning Commission during their February 19 meeting, Council members were agreed an in-house education session on the Plan, before that hearing, might be helpful. Motion by Councilman Marks and seconded by Councilman Letourneau to schedule a work session on the Comprehensive Plan at 6 :30 p.m. , prior to the regular Council meeting on February 12. Motion carried unanimously. Resolution 80-012 was accepted as an agenda addendum under VC. Motion by Councilman Sundland and seconded by Councilman Ranallo to approve the third reading and adopt Ordinance 1979-008. • ORDINANCE 1979-008 AN ORDINANCE ESTABLISHING A BOARD OF HEALTH, AN ADVISORY COMMITTEE TO THE BOARD OF HEALTH, AND PROVIDING FOR THE ENFORCEMENT OF HEALTH LAWS, ORDINANCES AND ORDERS; AMENDING CHAPTER II OF THE 1973 CODE OF ORDINANCES BY ADDING SECTION 255 THERETO
