Planning Commission Agenda - 9/14/82 AGENDA SUPPLEMENT 1. Approval of the Minutes of the Special Meeting of the Planning Com- mission Held on August 31, 1982. 2. Public Hearing - Conditional Use Permit - Construction 5. Approximately two years ago, the Planning Commission recommended to the Council and the Council approved a conditional use for a twelve unit apartment building for Construction 5 to be located on the northeast corner of Ramsey Streets and Lauring Lane. Because that conditional use was not utilized within the twelve month period allowed, it is thereby void and must be renewed before any construction can begin. At this point, the developer is asking the Planning Commission to recommend renewal and approval to the Council so that they can proceed with construction possibly as early as this fall. APPLICANT: Construction 5. CONSIDERATION: Consider recommending approval or denial of thia renewal of a conditional use request. REFERENCES: An enclosed plan showing the property and the firot of three phasoo for which renewal of the conditional use permit is re- quoated and a map depicting the location of this property within the City of Monticello. 3.

In the procouo of buildinq this additional building, it in noceosary to address the lack of hard ourfacing in the present storage area for lumber, etc. around the buildings.

Public Hearin - Consideration of Rezoning. During the public hearing process for the proposed development of Chateau Plaza housing for the elderly, a determination was made as to where the Collector Road connecting the Country Club Road in Country Club Manor and 7th Street at the intersection of Walnut Street and 7th Street should go. At that time, the zoning on the north side of that proposed new Collector Route between Minnesota and Walnut Streets was brought out to the center of the proposed new street in order to have a land mark zoning boundary such as the street would be. At this time, possibly the Planning Commission should consider a correction of the zoning boundary from Minnesota Strects west to Elm Street. That is; the R-3 zoning district should possibly be expanded further south to include that property between its present boundary and the center line of the proposed new Collector Route at such time when it might be built. Basically, that zoning correction would include the Marvin Kramer proporty on the went side of Minnesota Street near the freeway plus a small sliver of land now owned by Tom and Elraino Brennan. This action for rezoning is prompted by a request for a conditional use within an R-3 zone being made by Jim and Pam Lindberg regarding the Kramer property. The next item in the agenda will deal with that conditional uce request which would be contingent upon thio rezoning taking place. CCNSIOERATION: Consider recommending approval or denial of Chia rezoning request. REFERENCES s An enclosed map showing the proponed Collector Road routing and that portion of the property which Is proposed to be rezoned and a map depicting the location of this property within the community. - 2 - Planning Commission Agenda - 9/14/82 5. Public Hearing - Conditional Use Request - Jim 6 Pam Lindberq. As briefly touched upon in the previous agenda item, Jim 6 Pam Lind- berg are proposing to develop a day care group nursery in the Mar- vin Kramer property. This proposal would be for a permanent type day care center. In an R-3 zone, such as is proposed for this property, a day care/ group nursery requires a conditional use. In the past couple of years, the Lindbergs have been trying to locate a permanent site for their day care facility and it appears as though this property will acco®odate them as such. In order for them to have a day care facility on that property also approval would be required from the Department of Public welfare but that approval would be contingent upon a conditional use being received from the City of Monticello. If a day care center is developed on this property, also all the conditions of a conditional use would have to be met as are required by ordinance. The Lindbergs have indicated that if the rezoning for this property is approved and the day care faeillty is yrantLd a conditional use, that they would be willing to deed to the City the southerly 80 feet of that property for the continuation of the Collector Road which is proposed to connect Country Club Road and Country Club Estates with the intersectiono of walnut and 7th Streets as was discussed in a previous agenda item and as is shown in the references to the pro- vious agenda item discussing rezoning. APPLICANT: Jim and Pam Lindberg. CONSIDERATION: Consider recommending approval or denial of this conditional use request for a day care/group nuraory. REFERENCES: An enclosed map depicting tho location of thin property within the City of Monticello and also refer to the references for the previous agenda item. Planning Commission Agenda - 9/14/82 6. Public Fearing - Variance for a Setback - Automatic Garage Door Company. The Automatic Garage Door Company which occupies Lot 5 - Block 1 of Commercial Plaza 25, south of Monticello on the cast side of Hwy 25 adjacent to the Pet Hospital, has requested a variance to be allowed to place a pylon sign closer than 30 feet to the front yard property line as is required by Monticello ordinances. lir. Greg Tobias, manager of the Automatic Garage Door Company, has requested a setback of 10 feet for his new sign. Mr. Tobias will be at the Planning Commission meeting on Tuesday evening to show a diagram of the proposed new sign for which he is requesting the 10 foot setback. In the past, the Planning Commission has granted variances when re- quested for pylon signs of this type along the highway provided it would not interfer with any proposed frontage roads, etc. which is the case in this request. There are no reasons why frontage roads, etc. would hinder the granting of this sign request. One letter has been received from an abutting property owner stating they have no objection to the setback for this sign. APPLICARr: Automatic Garage Door Company. CONSIDERATION. Consider recommending approval or denial of this variance for a setback of a pylon sign. REFERENCES: An enclosed map depicting the location of this property upon which the sign will be placed. 7. New Business. Possibly the Planning Commiuoion may want to diacuan tho poaaihility of holding a public hearing in the future to amend Monticello or- dinances to require groan strip plantings or buffer strips to be planted along freeways, railroads, etc. in future now oubdiviaiono. This item is for discussion only and if tho Planning Comniusion choonooa public hearing on the same, it can he scheduled. - 4-
