Roeser <br /> <br />APPROVAL OF MINUTES <br />The Minutes of February 4, 2010 were approved. <br /> <br />EDAC OFFICERS <br />Ms. Keller moved to nominate Joe Stranik as chair. Mr. Corson seconded the motion. Motion <br />approved unanimously. Ms. Keller moved to nominate Brian Menke as vice-chair. Mr. Stranik <br />seconded the motion. Motion approved unanimously. <br /> <br />LAKE DRIVE NONCONFORMING USES ISSUES <br />City Planner Jeff Smyser led a discussion regarding planning and redevelopment of sites with <br />nonconforming uses. He gave members background on the tools cities use to plan land uses <br />within the city, including the Comprehensive Plan, which defines areas for broad land uses, road <br />systems and infrastructure. Zoning and subdivision ordinances are examples of official controls <br />designed to be more specific to implement the larger plan. Nonconforming uses and structures <br />are those that do not conform to current zoning standards. Nonconforming could range from lot <br />size to architectural standards. They are buildings and uses that are intended to be phased out. An <br />existing nonconforming use or building may continue its use as long as it doesn’t expand. If a <br />use changes, the new use must conform. The goal is to ensure over time the site will conform to <br />current standards. <br /> <br />Mr. Smyser noted that the new draft Comprehensive Plan began with a citizen panel that visited <br />numerous sites to determine what the sites should be planned for. Based on the conclusions, the <br />new city’s land use map was created. One site they visited was the catalyst for the discussion <br />today—a number of properties on Lake Drive called Golden Rice Lake Terrace or the “Golden <br />Triangle”. Mr. Roeser commented that the city council was working on things that maintained <br />the integrity of the city while being pro business. He is looking for some time of phased plan for <br />nonconforming uses on Lake Drive. He would rather that buildings didn’t fall into disrepair until <br />such time as redevelopment can occur. Mr. Corson mentioned revolving loan funds for blighted <br />areas, such as Ramsey’s city fund where the landowner must contribute 50% of the cost of <br />improvements to be eligible.
