The regular meeting was called to order by Chairman Peltier at 7:03PM. PRESENT: WALLER, AGNESS, SCHUMANN, RUBENZER, MALASKI, KELLISON, PELTIER ADMINISTRATOR MUSEUS, CAROLE LABELLE Motion made by Schumann, seconded by Kellison to approve the minutes of December 20, 1995, as amended. All aye, motion passed. Mr. Tomnitz will be unavailable for this meeting and has requested his application be tabled until February 28, 1996. Motion made by Schumann, seconded by Peltier to table this request until February 27, 1996. All aye, motion passed. Lauren McCullough Well Drilling, Inc., 15597 Forest Blvd., Hugo, has requested to rezone 2.8 acres of their property from retail business to industrial to allow the expansion of their business on the site. At issue is the firms desire to increase the amount of storage on site beyond the limits established for the retail business district. There is a small parcel of industrial zoned property immediately adjacent to the south. In addition there is industrial zoned property to the north and south that is not immediately adjacent. Granting this rezoning would essentially extend an industrial district from Peloquin Industrial Park north along Highway 61 to approximately 157th St. extended. There were no comments from the general public. Commissioner Waller felt the rezoning would be conducive to the area. Other Commissioners preferred to allow Mr. McCullough to expand his storage without rezoning the property. Motion made by Peltier to recommend approval of the rezoning from Retail Business to Industrial. Motion failed for lack of a second. Motion made by Kellison, seconded by Peltier to table the McCullough rezoning request until February 28, 1996, to allow the City attorney to review the application to see if there is a method for allowing additional storaoe on site without rezoninq. All aye, motion passed.
