All aye. Motion Carried. 5.2 LaMetti & Sons - Food Shelf Program and Request for Variance John Hasselbeck, representing LaAletti & Sons, was present to discuss the proposed food shelf program. Rather than having the program for just one month, they are suggesting a year -around program to be located at City Hall. Minnesota Food Bank will make daily pickups if necessary. It was the consensus of the Council to allow the food shelter in Hugo, possibly at City Hall. VARIANCE LaMetti has made application for a variance to the Zoning Ordinance regarding the 400 sq ft allowed for watchman's quarters. The Planning Commission recommended denial of the application. Hasselbeck discussed the presented site plan and stated that they are requesting a variance for a two year period at which time they hope have constructed a new office building. At that time, all temporary buildings would be removed. Hasselbeck requested the variance because of the f inanc A hardship to hire a security firm rather than a live-in watchman. Some Council members felt that the thrust of the 400 sq ft requirement was to avoid a residence in the IND zone. MOTION: Potts made motion, Schwab seconded, to deny the variance request of LaMetti & Sons for watchman quarters to exceed the 400 sq ft requirement, specifically referencing 320-4, Subd L, #3, as well as the Planning Commission recommendation. VOTING FOR: Potts, Schwab, McAllister VOTING AGAINST: Hauer, Peltier Motion Carried.
