HUGO PLANNING COMMISSION
June 27, 1979
The public hearing to consider the request of Lawrence Jasinski for a re—
zoning was called to order by Chairperson Peltier at 7:42 PM.
PRESENT:Peloquin, Peltier, Greger,Hanson, Houle and McAllister
A report was received from Howard Kuusisto regarding the rezoning request.
Kuusisto stated that it appears that Greystone Avenue, south from 175th
Street, extends approximately 500 feet. He stated that according to the
records in the road book, the extension has not been shown, therefore,
further investigation is needed according to property owners records as
to any dedication of street right—of—way. He also stated that the land
is located in Zone C of the flood plain map. The Washington County map
shows Greystone Avenue approximately 900 feet long.
Mr. John Bergman, 6524 170th Street, was present asking about the extension
of Greystone Avenue. His land lies west of the Jasinski property. Mr.
Jasinski stated that he would provide an easement to the property so that
the trees located on the section line would not have to be removed. Mr.
Bergman stated that he did not want to see the trees either, because they
act as a wind protector.
Peloquin asked if Mr. Bergman had an easement on his deed for Greystone
Avenue, and Bergman said that the only easement listed was 20' to Anoka
Electric, and 33' for ingress and egress to his property. rt -x, Flu ,. Hyl
Peltier asked if the property were rezoned, how much land would be left.
It was determined that there was a balance of approximately 40 acres.
Hanson asked if the road would be deadend, and Jasinski stated yes. Hanson
felt that a cul—de—sac would be necessary to allow for plowing and emergen—
cy vehicles. Jasinski wanted to see road remain deadend as in the past.
He stated that the plows refuse to turn around on his property, and have
to back into snowdrifts.
Greger asked why Mr. Jasinski was only rezoning the one parcel, and Jasinski
stated that the land could possibly be developed into smaller parcels in
the future.
The public hearing was closed at 8:13 PM.
The regular meeting of the Planning Commission was called to order at
8:14 PM.
PRESENT: Peloquin, Peltier, Greger, Hanson, Houle and McAllister

borings taken on the property. The Planning Commission reviewed the Flood

termine, be reviewing the ordinance, what was required for Zone C.

Mr. Schuneman proposes to divide land along 125th Street into three lots

road. A certificate of survey, proof of ownership, and perc tests were
provided. McAllister stated that a Minor Subdivision was not required to
divide the property, and that the City Clerk can stamp the deeds.

made application for a Minor Subdivision, when in fact, he meets all the
requirements for Land Division. The fee for a Minor Subdivision should not
have been accepted. We recommend that the City Council refund the $35.00

situation.
