MARCH 6, 1978 613 1► 5.2 Robert McCullough - Rezoning and Special Use Permit The rezoning request was considered first. Spitzer expressed concern about the number of driveways that could be used along Highway 61 . He stated that he would like to have some kind of tentative site plan submitted to review the control of access to Highway 61 . LaValle stated that the lots will have to be subdivided, and a plat would be involved. Mr. Johnson, City Attorney, stated that the only way the city can be assured of maintaining control is to take an access easement along the edge of the property. The rezoning request is to have land zoned RB rather than AG. MOTION: Vail made motion, seconded by LaValle, to amend the Zoning Ordinance to rezone the MCCullough property from Agriculture to Retail Business (see attached legal descriptions) . VOTING FOR: LaValle, Spitzer, Schletty, Irsfeld, and Vail MOTION CARRIED Because the land is now zoned RB, Mr. McCullough will not need a Special Use Permit, but rather a Site Plan Approval. Mr. Kuusisto reviewed the Site Plan with Mr. McCullough, and decided that the Council should look at a marginal street along the Highway 61 right-of-way. The plan shows a 100' setback now, so a 50' easement would leave 50' (40' requirement) . Mr. McCullough was informed that if he does not choose to move his building back, he will not have room for a sign. MOTION: Spitzer rade motion, seconded by Vail, to approve the Site Plan of Robert McCullough contigent of granting of a 50' easement along the front of the property for the purpose of a road way to the city. As a condition, Mr. McCullough will agree to share in the cost of construction of the frontage road when it is built. Spitzer withdrew his motion. The fact that Mr. McCullough was going to have a holding tank on his property was discussed. The city, as a rule, is not in favor of holding tanks. However, LaValle did not think that sewer was too far away from that area. Mr. Kuusisto suggested that McCullogh install a 1500 gallon tank. MOTION: Spitzer made motion, seconded by Schletty, to approve the Site Plan of Robert McCullough, subject to the following conditions, which must be fulfilled immediately: 1 . A 50' right-of-way on the west side of the property, immediately adjacent to Highway 61 , be given to the city. 2. Mr. McCullough must agree to share in the cost of the construction of the frontage road when it is built. 3. Mr. McCullough must file with the city, and keep current, a contract for the pumping of his sewer holding tank (capacity of at least 1500 gallons) . 4. Mr. McCullough shall obtain a bond in the amount of $1 ,000.00, favor of the city, to insure his entering a contract to have his sewer holding tank pumped. Con- tract to be kept current.
