• Planning Commission Meeting <br /> May 18, 1993 <br /> Page 10 <br /> 1 the construction a right in, right out access at either 30 <br /> 2 feet or 170 feet from the TCF curb cut would not cause any <br /> 3 potential traffic problems . The possibility of any <br /> 4 business locating next to TCF negotiating an access <br /> 5 agreement with the bank had also been suggested to a bank <br /> 6 official. <br /> 7 <br /> 8 Copies of letters supporting the rezoning from the two <br /> 9 property owners had been distributed. Kenneth Lee who had <br /> 10 spoken in support of the proposed development of the <br /> 11 professional offices north of TCF, related his long <br /> 12 history of property ownership in that area including the <br /> 13 land where Apache and TCF had been built. The property <br /> 14 owner pointed out that he had unsuccessfully tried to sell <br /> 15 the two lots proposed to be rezoned that evening to TCF <br /> 16 for half the price they were asking for the lot they own. <br /> 17 Mr. Lee assured the Commissioners that the soil on all <br /> 18 three lots is made up of only subsoil from the Apache <br /> 0 9 development. Subsoil tests have indicated blue clay way <br /> 0 down which Mr.Lee perceived anyone who bought the land for <br /> 21 development would be able to overcome. <br /> 22 <br /> 23 Commissioner Franzese suggested that with his wealth of <br /> 24 information about the growth of the Village, Mr. Lee would <br /> 25 certainly be a valuable addition to the St. Anthony <br /> 26 Historical Society. <br /> 27 <br /> 28 Ruth Nelson, 3916 Macalaster Drive, who lives in the area <br /> 29 wondered why when so many TCF customers have to park on <br /> 30 the adjoining streets during busy times, the bank didn't <br /> 31 keep the lot it owns for additional parking space it <br /> 32 certainly needs . She was quite concerned about the use of <br /> 33 a general commercial classification for the property to be <br /> 34 rezoned perceiving there could be some undesirable uses <br /> 35 which might come under such a general classification. <br /> 36 <br /> 37 Mr. Urbia told her there are permitted uses, conditional <br /> 38 uses, and prohibited uses under that classification. He <br /> 39 said even permitted uses have all kinds of restrictions <br /> 40 like parking area requirements and any proposal which <br /> 41 can't meet those restrictions would simply not be allowed <br /> 42 to develop that space. The Management Assistant cautioned <br /> 43 against narrowing down the classification saying the <br /> 44 market would probably govern what goes in that space <br /> •5 anyway. He addressed Mrs . Nelson' s concerns about a <br /> 46 development like a potato chip factory going into that <br /> 47 space by saying that use would be classified as Light <br />
