y y -6- John R. Penne, 5617 133rd Street N.E. , appeared to discuss the conceptual feasibility of zoning and use change for the existing • structure on the southern portion of the Hedlund property so his firm can remodel it for a realty office . Mr . Penne said he did not want to interfere with the existing PUD for the property; and if it posed a problem for the City, his firm could seek other sites in the City. He did not anticipate there would be more than 15 to 20 associates of the firm in his office at one time. He said the garage on the lot will probably be eliminated and there might be a wing attached on the side. He saw no problem with conforming to the PUD requirements for parking and screening on the north and showed site plans for reconversion plans . This concept had been discussed by City staff in their memo of June 15, and their recommendation , and that of the City Attorney, had been the Penne proposal could be considered under the existing PUD, but must be considered at a public hearing on the Detailed Plan, Mr. Fornell said. A telephone conversation with the contractor' s wife confirmed that five of the eight houses required by the PUD have been built on the Penrod portion of the property and two others started, with the last house to be started in August in compliance with the agree- ment Mr. Brickner has with Mr. Hedlund. Problems with the development of this PUD were reiterated with agree- ment that this is the first proposal made by Mr. Hedlund which had • conformed to the Conceptual Plan for the PUD. Mr . Fornell confirmed that a Detailed Plan is not required for the entire western portion of the development, as long as the requirements for one building are met following with which the City has to entertain as application for that building. He reiterated one proposal can be developed without seeing plans for the remainder of the undeveloped site. Motion by Mr. Bjorklund and seconded by Mr. Jones to recommend Council approval of a public hearing to consider the Penne Proposal subsequent to fulfillment of-Condition 6B of the Scheduling Component of the Hedlund PUD, since the Board' s general consensus is that this proposal is essentially in conformance with the PUD requirements . Motion carried unanimously. The meeting was recessed from 9 : 25 to 9 : 30 p.m. and when it was re- convened, the discussion on the Open Meeting Law was continued by Mr. Bjorklund. Each member gave his views as to how the law applied to each personally regarding private conversations . Mr. Jones was concerned he had been misquoted in the minutes for the hearing on the liquor operation, May 30 , since he had not endorsed the Silver Lane location for a liquor store. Mr. Bjorklund then suggested the BRW, Inc. attempt to get more pro- fessional projections regarding population projections for St. Anthony • suggesting ISD #282 had searched many sources for their figures and might react critically to the figures used by BRW.
