VOTING AYE: Peltier, Rubenzer, Kellison, Harrison, Puleo VOTING NAY: Malaski ABSTAINED: Schumann Motion Carried. REZONING REQUEST (INDYKIEWICZ) Mr. George A. Indykiewicz, 1920 W. Highway 96, Arden Hills, has requested to rezone existing agricultural property he owns to SFU for a future residential project. The property is located along the west side of Forest Boulevard, north of 155th Street, in the NE 1/4 of Section 17. The City's land -use plan guides the property for urban residential development. The City's sanitary sewer trunk system staging plan predicts development of the area during the period 2000-2010. Sanitary sewer service is available from the Forest Lake trunk interceptor along the west edge of the property, and municipal water service is available at 150th Street and Forest Boulevard. Chairman Peltier open the public hearing on this request. Mr. Jeff Shopek of Loucks and Associates, engineers for the project, represented Mr. Indykiewicz, and provided a brief description of the proposed project to construct single family residential homes on the site. He also discussed some of the constraints regarding the large amount of wetlands present. John Thommes, Thommes and Thomas Tree Service, supported the rezoning, but was concerned with the impact of additional residential properties adjacent to his business, and constraints it could place on the use of his property. Mr. LaMetti expressed concerns regarding the potential impact of residential property on use of his industrially -zoned property immediately to the north of the proposed development site. LaMetti operates a contracting business, and does preparation work on the site. He expressed concern that the noise of his equipment, and hours of operation, may disturb future residential property owners. There was some discussion regarding the large wetland barrier on the north side of the proposed residential development site, buffering Mr. LaMetti from the development. Peltier closed the hearing, and the following motion was made: Harrison made motion, Rubenzer seconded, to recommend approval of the request of George Indykiewicz to rezone approximately 165 acres from agriculture to SFU.
