MINUTES FOR THE HUGO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OF MAY 28, 1997 The regular meeting was called to order by Chairperson Peltier at 7:OOPM. PRESENT: Waller, Harrison, Schumann, Rubenzer, Malaski, Kellison, Ed Elliott Carole LaBelle Motion made by Schumann, seconded by Kellison to approve the minutes of April 23, 1997, as amended. All aye, motion passed. The Planning Commission requested city staff provide them with information regarding the construction and legality of the building being constructed at the southeast intersection of Highway 61 and 170th Street (LaCasse). REZONING - KANE The applicant is requesting to rezone the 2.0 acre parcel on the northeast corner of T.H. 61 and CR4 from agriculture to limited business for the purpose of relocating his landscape business, Lakes Landscaping and Design, from his present Forest Lake location. The site plan includes a business office and storage building. Mike Kane, Lakes Landscaping and Design, stated that they are proposing a Morton Building for storage of their equipment (bobcat, loader, tractor, dumptrucks, pick up truck, etc.), and an office for a designer. They will not be selling retail at this site and there will be no stockpiling. Mr. Kane stated that they may wish to include limited block and edging sales in the future. The site will include cyclone fence with privacy slats in the rear of the property. No perc tests have been done on the site. General concensus was that this was compatible with the surrounding uses and that this was a less intensive use than other possible zones. The question was raised whether "part" of a building could be considered an accessory use. It was also noted that the LB district does not allow retail sales. Motion made by Kellison, seconded by Peltier to recommend approval of the request of Mike Kane/National Propane Corp., to rezone approximately 2 acres located at the intersection of Highway 61 and 170th Street from Agriculture to Limited Business. All aye, motion passed.
