Minutes for the Planning Commission September 23, 1998 - Page S Rubenzer read the public notice as published in the White Bear Press. The Planning Commission considered a letter by Jerry Zick, 9118 122nd St. N., which stated Mr. LaDoux currently has 1,7800 square feet for storage, which had not been verified by the City. Included in the letter was a copy of the Declaration of Protective Covenants and Restrictions for Palmes Long Lake Estates, which stated accessory structures shall be constructed of the same type and color as the principal building. Zick stated the building LaDoux wanted to construct would destroy his backyard view. There were not other comments from the public. Rubenzer asked if Mr. Ladoux would consider a smaller building and how small he could go, and LaDoux stated he needed at least 36'X 56' to allow him to store his mobile home. There was discussion regarding the covenants for Palmes Long Lake Estates. It is not the City's responsibility to enforce the covenants, and it was suggested to Mr. LaDoux that he abide by them to prevent litigation with his neighbors. Rubenzer made motion, Peltier seconded, to recommend approval of a Special Use Permit for an additional 2,016 square feet of storage on his property. All AYES. Motion carried. Subdivision (Wewers) Joseph R. and Barbard J. Wewers, 15880 Harrow Ave. N., had requested to subdivide a 40 acre parcel into one 8.04 acre parcel and one 31.6 acre parcel. The property is in the agricultural zoning district of the City. The 8.4 parcel would contain the existing home on the property but not the barn. Schumann read the public notice as published in the White Bear Press. Wewers stated he lives across the street from this property and would like to sell the parcel with the house on it and keep the remaining acreage for his horses. He wanted the parcel subdivided in a way that would allow him to keep the four foot deep well and mature spruce trees on the parcel he intended to keep. Harrison asked how many acres his home was on, and Wewer said 6.7 acres, and his neighbors to the north were on about two. There was discussion regarding the park dedication fee and requirements for the new lot created to show it is a buildable lot. Puleo made motion, Harrison seconded, to recommend approval of the subdivision with a variance for a 8.4 acre parcel, where ten acres are required, and with the following conditions: 1. Parkland dedication fee of $1,350 to be paid to the City. 2. Letter from Washington County approving the septic on the residual lot. 3. Permit from the Rice Creek Watershed District. All AYES. Motion carried. Rezoning and Subdivision (City of Hugo) The City of Hugo and Mr. Roy Molitor had requested to plat approximately 42 acres of property located in the NW 1/4 of Section 29, and the NE 1/4 of section 30, into three lots and one outlot, and rezone from single family estate to industrial and industrial to residential service.
