3. Hearing on rezoning of area between 37th Ave.N.E. and Soo Line Tracks,
from Silver Lake Road to Higherest
The hearing was attended by approximately 20 property owners. Present
i
zoning of the area was presented by the Planning Board, with an explana-
tion of how the zoning was established. No objections were presented to
the zoning west of the east 150 feet of those lots lying along the west
i
• side of Foss Road and along the Soo Line tracks. The area in controversy _
includes the east 150 feet of block 11 and all of block 12 in Moundsview
Acres Second Addition.
The property owners initially were divided between maintaining the present
zoning and changing the zoning to multiple dwelling and light industrial. .
One group of petitioners representing a considerable portion of the pro-
perty owners in the area favored rezoning all but the northerly four lots
of each block to multiple d 91lings. Since it would not be economically j
feasible to 'c-ep the present zoning on the raaaining lots, it would ap-
pear Wat these would have to be rezoned to either light industrial or I
multiple dwelling use.
Another alternative considered is to rezone the property extending from
I
the ext.ehsio" of the village maintenance building south property line to
3'7f6 Ave, N. E. to M+ulti.l,le dwelling, with the remainder light industrial.
It appeared that aii of the -operty owners present were agreeable to eith-
er of these proposals at the conclusion of the hearing.
The Planning Board closed the hearing at. 9:30 P.M. Consideration of the
rezoning was taken up by the board. One major factor in the rezoning ap-
pears to be the future glans for a holding pond on the north end of block
12. The board requests that information be provided by the village engin-
eers on the possibility of the present village property being either ex-
panded or reduced. Another factor which must be considered is the effect '
OK adjacent undeveloped property presently zoned R-1 residential. The
board will consider this rezoning_at the Oct._ 15 regular meeting, assum-
ing that information from the village engineers is available at that time.
4. Request of M. Stenglein for Rezoning of Lots 5 and 6, Block 7, Moundsview
Acres Second Addition
Mr. Stenglein appeared to request a change in zoning from multiple dwelling
to light industrial use to permit erection of a warehouse type building on
• the property. The property was recommended to the council for multiple
dwegzoning in the general rezoning action last May. The reason for
this recommendation was information from the Ramsey County engineers of-
fice that access near the north end of the railroad overpass on the north-
bound lane of Silver Lake Road would have to be restricted because of poor
traffic visibility due to the grades. -.If access to this property would
have to be obtained from Macalaster Drive, it appeared to the Planning
Board that it was more desirable to have passenger car traffic through the
residential area adjacent to the property than the truck traffic which
would be generated by a light industrial use of the property. -_
It was suggested to Mr. Stenglein that he contact the county engineers of-
fice regarding access to his property from Silver Lake Road and get a def-
inite answer from them. He agreed to this a:.: .'Lon and will also submit
• plans showing location of the proposed building on his property, parking
-3-
facilities, driveways, and other pertinent information.
5. Request of G. Neumann, 3005 - 37th Ave. N.E,, for Addition of Second
Story to Debbie's Drive-In
Mr. Neumann appeared with plans for addition of a second story t�'the drive-
in restaurant at the above address.
Moved by E. Rocks, seconded by J. Rosinek, that the Planning Board recommend
