1. The meeting was called to order by Chairperson Richard Carlson at
7:34 p.m.
2. Motion was made by Joyce Dowling, seconded by Jim Ridgeway, to approve
the minutes of the September 8, 1987, Planning Commission meeting.
Motion carried unanimously.
At the request of the Zoning Administrator, Chairperson Richard Carlson
then opted to amend the agenda as presented to hear items number one and
two under the additional information items before entering any of the
public hearing items.
Additional Informational Items
1. Input on a possible replatting of a city industrial lot.
011ie Koropchak was present to discuss with Planning Commission membere
the possibility of subdividing Lots 9 and 10, Block 2, Oakwood
Industrial Park Addition in the City of Monticello, which the City
currently owns. 011ie has found in her discussions with prospective
businesses to relocate to Monticello is that they are looking for
smaller sized lots than the large lots which are available in the
Oak rood Industrial Park. Jim Ridgeway questioned to make sure that the
development of the roadway system there is sufficient size to allow for
semi -truck tractor circulation into these lots. The general consensus
by the planning Commission membere was that they looked favorably at
this subdividing or replotting of these two industrial lots.
2. In$ut on possible redevelopment projects on the old Monticello Ford
Site.
011ie Koropchak was present to propose some possible development ideas
on the old Monticello Pord property site. 011ie was looking for
Planning Commission input on same possible development ideas.
She indicated to Planning Commission amumbere one of the proposed
devolopmente, should funding become available, is for another elderly
project to be built thereto but it would need additional acquisition of
D
Planning Commission !Minutes - 10/14/87
land and buildings to accommodate another elderly project. The other
alternative was to have the site leveled possibly before the first of
the year to hopefully attract prospective buyers of the property for
some type of retail development. Joyce Dowling questioned whether the
only intent or the ideas that have been brought forward to this point
have been for an elderly housing project. 011ie countered that this has
not been the only intent of it and that there are other possibilities
for prospective developments for a retail office type building. Richard
Carlson questioned if any input had been received from any of the
downtown business people. 011ie Roropchak answered that she hadn't
contacted any of the downtown businesses or the downtown Retailers
Association for any input they would have at this time. Jim Ridgeway
questioned as to any type of promotion of this lot should it become
demolished and available for possible building. 011ie answered that no
type of ad or promoting of this land has been dare at this point. But
she felt it would be a very good idea to start promoting the property
once they have a level site to work with. Richard Carlson, Chairperson,
thought his feelings would be with the possibility of some condo type of
building, that being a building with underground parking, probably a
retail office on the main level, and one or two stories of some type of
residential. Richard Carlson did also recommend that demolition of the
old Monticello Pord building as soon as possible, even if it only
entailed the Monticello Pord building, would be a big improvement for
the potential of a possible developer coming in to purchase the site.
The general consensus of the Planning Oamaission members was they look
favorable on any type of demolition and that it be done as soon as
possible and then look at the alternatives after we have a level site.
011ie Koropchak then passed out information on the streetscape plan to
the planning Commission members who weren't in attendance at the
downtown streetacape meeting. She did explain the intent with some
reflective costs per lineal foot of commercial property and how it would
be assessed on a possible assessment schedule for that.
3. Public Hearing - A simple subdivision request to subdivide an existinq
unplatteo lot Into two unplatted lots. licant, Debbie Kramer.
Debbie Kramer was present to propose the subdivision of their unplatted
piece of land into two unplatted percale. The parcel to be subdivided
was of appropriate size to accommodate a building and land area and
setbacks within the existing zoning, PZi (performance zone mixed). With
no input from the public, Chairperson Richard Carlson opened the meeting
for any input from Planning Commission members. With no input from the
Planning Commission mmnbere, motion was made by Richard Martie, seconded
by Jim Ridgeway, to approve the aixple subdivision request to subdivide
an existing unplatted lot into two unplatted lots. Motion carried
unanimously.

Planning Commission Minutes - 10/14/87
Public Hearing - A variance r est to allow placement of a detached
garage within the sideyard suck requirement. Applicant, Bruce
Parson.
Zoning Administrator Anderson indicated to Planning Commission members
that he did receive a call from Mr. Parson on Monday afternoon
indicating he would like to withdraw his variance request. The reason
for withdrawing his request is he decided to down scale the size of his
garage to meet all of the minimum setback requirements.
A request for general concept stage review of a Qlanned unit development
to 6e known as Highland Heights One. Applicant, Rivera Financial and
Development Corpany.
Mr. George Rivera was back before the Planning Commission members to
update them on the progress of his concept stage of his Planned Unit
Development to be known as Highland Heights One. Mr. Rivera felt that
he had everything ready before the Planning Commmission members in
regards to all the requirements of the concept stage review of a Planned
Unit Developme, t. Zoning Administrator Anderson, however, indicated to
Planning Commission members that this evening was the first time that
City staff had been presented with a feasibility study of the utilities
to serve this property by the applicant, Mr. Rivera. Much discussion
then centered around Mr. Rivera's intent to proceed with the concept
plan stage upon a list of conditions to go a.`mead with granting of
approval by the Planning Omission members contingent upon a punch list
of these items to be finished on the concept stage so he can get into
the development stage of his Planned Unit Development. Much discussion
with Mr. Rivera indicated to where we are here in the City of Monticello
in regards to the presenting of certain stages of Planned Unit
Developments and/or subdivisions within the City of Monticello.
Mr. Rivera continually indicated to Planning Commission members that we
are very indifferent from other communities in which he had developed in
in that they give approval of the concept stage or preliminary plat
stage of a development with conditions so it is passed on to the next
decision maker, which in Monticello's case would be the City Council.
Zoning Administrator Anderson did indicate again to Mr. Rivera the steps
that are needed to get to possible completion of his concept stage
review of his Planned Unit Development. Mr. Rivera, in understanding,
asked for the tabling of hie concept stage review of a Planned Unit
Development to be known as Highland Heights One until the next regularly
scheduled Monticello Planning Commission meeting, that being
November 10, 1987, 7:10 p.m.
Motion was made by Richard Martie, seconded by Cindy Lem, to table the
request for a general concept stage review of a Planned Unit Development
to be known as Highland Heights One. Motion carried unanimously.

Brennan. (G.A.)
�-A;eN J - , .I. ; •; N:��
Mr. Tom Brennan currently owns the unplatted land west of Minnesota
Street around the Marvin Kramer property as you will note on the enclosed
sketch plan. Mr. Brennan is proposing to subdivide these two existing
unplatted tracks of land into some type of light commercial, multiple
family, and/or single family development. The current zoning for the
majority of this entire property is PZM (performance zone mixed). We do
have a small piece of this property up near the freeway that is zoned B-3
(highway business).
If this does became a reality, it would provide our collector route link
between the intersection of Country Club Road and Elm Street and
Minnesota Street with the extension of (test 7th Street.
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
1. Approve the sketch plan review of a proposed new subdivision plat.
2. Deny the sketch plan review of a proposed new subdivision plat.
C. STAFF REOOWffir',ATION:
With the site plan as proposed, City staff recommends approval of a site
plan review for this new subdivision plat. The site plan does contain
sufficient information with the proposed layout of the utilities that
exist there. With the layout of the existing utilities, development
could occur similar to the Meadow Oak Development in that portions of
this entire area would be developed individually at one time.
