Public Hearinq on a Variance Request from the Minimum Square Footace Requirements of a Rambler - Marvin George Builders in Salboul Estates. Marvin George Builders requested a variance from Monticello Ordinances which require a one-story dwelling to be a minimum of 1,000 square feet on the first floor. The variance request would apply only for those lots In Balboul Estates. Mr. Marvin George presented information at the Planning Commission re- questing a minimum square footage for ramblers of 912 uquaro font based on the following reasons: 1, Mr. George felt that a good mixture of split entries and ramblora makes a more neathetic appearing neighborhood. 2. By allowing for a smaller square footage home, it would make it more accessible for the person in the lower income bracket. 3. Mr. George indicated that because of a loan commitment program from the Federal housing Mminintration for homes in Balboul Estates, he is limited in terms of the amount of money he can spend on an indi- vidual home and felt that by lowering the square footage, he would be able to work within the scope of the program. The following citizens comments wore prosen:ed, non Christopher indicated opposition to a rambler of loan than 1,000 square foot, but indicated he would not be opposed to split entries if they wore loan than 1,000 square feet. Daryl Tindla also indicated his opposition to ramblers being loan than 1,004 square foot in the area. Council Minutes - 5/14/79 Gordy Jacobson also indicated opposition to the variance request and also asked the Council why some type of diversity can't be required of local builders in a subdivision. He felt that the Council should look into possible ways of controlling what type of homes are built in an area so that they do not all look alike. Hearing no other comments, a motion was made by Phil White, seconded by Fran Fair and unanimously carried to deny the variance request for ramblers to be built in Balboul Estates of less than 1,000 square feet. 2. Public Hearinq - Variance to allow the Use of a Mobile Home as a Sales Office in a B-3 Zone - Scott Potato Company. Scott Potato Company, which operates a potato brokerage office during the pctato season south of Monticello Ford on a parcel owned by Larry Flake, requested the following variances: A. Variance from the building code provisions since Mobile Homes do not meet current building codes. B. Variance from the hardsurfaced parking requirements for an office. C. Variance from landscaping requirements for a business. The Scott ),state Company currently leases a parcel of land trom Larry Flake and operates out of the mobile home as a sales office. When the new Monticello Ford building was constructed, owner Larry Flake agreed that he would no longer allow Scott Potato to lease a parcel from him relative to the mohile homo. site after 1978. Scott Potato Company has indicated that they will be looking for a new site to build a building within the Monticello area, but have asked for a one year variance to Allow the nn(�ration to continue at the present situ. The Planning Commission recommended that the variance be granted for one year to allow Scott Potato Company the opportunity to provide a new office. Motion was made by Ken Maus, seconded by Dan Blonigen and unanimously carried to grant a variance to the Scott Potato Company to allow them to remain a,. the proi:cnt site until January 1, 1980, at which time they would have to move. At the present time, the hardsurfaced parking requirements and landscaping requirements would not be unforced. 3. Public Hearing - Consideration of Variance on Sideyard Setback and Subdivision of Parcel - Mr. 6 Mrs. Ilarry Benson. Mr, b Mrs, harry Denson have requested a variance from the aidoyard setback requirements of 10' to allow an existing garage to have its dripline up to the abutting property line, and also to allow a sub- division of the parcel to allow the garage to be entirely on their own property. The existing garage was built several yearn ago, and now it was determined that the garage is locatnd half nn the Benson's prop:;rty and the other half on property owned by the abutting neigh- bor, Kevin Olson. Mr. R Mrs. Benson will be selling their property to Mr. Gene Carlson and havo nagotiatod with Mr. Kevin Olson to purchano 2 Council Minutes - 5/14/79 a strip of land that is 10' wide and 135' deep to allow their garage to be entirely on their own property. In exchange for this 10' wide parcel of land, Mr. 6 Mrs. Denson will be giving Mr. Olson a strip that will be 30' by 66' towards the southerly rear of their property. Mr. Kevin Olson has indicated that he is agreeable to the exchange of the property with the provision that the City of Monticello go on record as indicating that they would not be opposed if some day Mr. Olson or a subsequent property owner of this parcel would like to build a garage that also -eded a sideyard setback variance to the east. Mr. Olson indicated that the reason for this request is that his lot after the sale of 10' becomes quite narrow, and as a result, indicated that he may, in the future, need a variance if a new garage was built on his property. At their last meeting, the Planning Commission reeostnended approval of the subdivision of land for the extra 10' and also recommended that the Council approve the aideyard setback variance. Motion was made by Ken Maus, seconded by Fran Fair and unanimously carried to approve the following: 1. Subdivision of land contingent upon obtaining a certificate of survey and rtrmclf of recording the dauJ al the wrignt county registrar of deeds. 2. Approval of the aideyard setback variance provided the drip line falls on his own property. 3. Recommending to any future Council thnt if an application for a aideyard variance is requested by Mr. Olson or a subsequent property owner, that the variance be given consideration provided the now garage :could 1x: located behind the existing garage, or that the pro- per safety precautions were taken care of in regards to fire hazards if the two garages were side-by-side. Public liearinq - Consideration of a Variance Request on a Sidevard Setback - Janet Irvine. Ms. Janet Irvine requested a variance to build a garage to within 6' of her property line. The 24' x 24' proposed garage would be located on lot 5, Block L, Riggs Addition. A letter has been presented from the abutting property owner stating no objection to the garage and the Planning Commission recommended approval of the variance. Motion was made by Fran ?air, seconded by Ken Maus and unanimously carried to npprovo the 6' sidayard varianze for the garage for Janet Irvine. - 3 - Council Minutes - 5/14/79 Public Hearinq - Consideration of a Variance Request to allow More than One Accessory Buildinq on a Lot - John Kiebel. Current City Ordinances prohibit more than one garage or accessory build- ing per lot, and Mr. John Kiebel requested a variance to build a douhle garage on his property in addition to the present single garage that is located now on his property. Mr. Kiebel indicated that he would be using the small garage for storage, which is located in the rear of his property. The Planning Commission, at their last meeting, recommended approval of the variance. Motion was made by Phil White, seconded by Fran Fair and unanimously carried to approve the variance request for the new garage. 6. Public Hearing - Consideration of a variance Request on hear Yard Set- back and Subdivision of Land by Mr. 6 Mrs. Ed Klein. Mr. s Mrs. Ed Klein, who own Lots 1 s 2 of Block 37, Upper Monticello, requested to divide their two lots equally east and west instead of north and south, as presently platted. With the change of the lot line, it became necessary to request a variance because the rear yard setback for the existing house on Lot 2 would only have 26' setback instead of the required 30' setback. At the last Planning Commission meeting, approval was recommended for this variance. Motion was made by Phil White, seconded by Fran Fair and unanimously carried to approve the variance request on the rear setback of 26' rather than 30', and also to approve the subdivision of land provided a certificate of survey in presented to the City and proof of recording Of name. 7. Consideration of approval of Subdivision of Land - Ed Rivers. Mr. Eel Rivers, owner of Lot 1, Block 1, Kampa Estates, requested approval to sell 15' off the want aide of his property to his noighbor, Mr. Dick Frio. The reason for the requent was that Mr. Frio had recently cold off 20' of his property on the wont side duo to an error created several years ago in datermining the lot line h3twoen him and Mrs. Judy Sandberg. As the result of having his lot reduced by 20', Mr. Frio would like to buy the 15' to the east from Mr. Rivers to have his property essentially the same size that it originally was intended to be. The Planning Commission at their last meeting also recommended approval of this subdivision. Motion was made by Dan Blonigen, seconded by Phil White and unanimously carried to approve the subdivision request provided a now certificate of survey is obtained and proof of recording is completed. - 4 - /S Council Minutes - 5/14/79 B. Consideration of Chanqe Order 01 on 1978-1 Improvement Project for Sewer Extension to the Monticello Country Cluo's Access Road. At the last Council meeting, representatives of the Monticello Country Club indicated that they desired the sewer be extended on Golf Course Road westerly to their access road. John Badalich, City Engineer, pre- pared a cost estimate for the change order which would total approxi- mately $34,313. Two methods of assessing the cost to the Country Club were discussed by the Council. If this change order was considered as a separate project rather than as part of the entire 1978-1 Project, the cost to the Country Club would be the entire cost of the sewer extension, or $34,000. This would break down to approximately a $4,035 per parcel assessment due to the fact that the other side of Golf Course Road could not be assessed, as they have already been served with sewer. Under this assessment method, only half of the street restoration would be picked up by the City. Under the second method of assessing the Country Club property, the entire cost would be lumped with the 1978-1 Project cost and spread over the entire area of Country Club Manor and Kampa Estates. This would then, in turn, lower the assessment to approximately $2,690 per parcel for the Country Club while increasing the assessments approximately $150 per parcel for the other lots in Country Club Manor and Kampa Estates, etc. Under either method, it was the recommendation of the engineer that the additional cost of $1,100 for dewatering the area for this sewer line should be paid by the Country Club, as the area was once previously dewatered and this is an addi- tional cost. After noting that during the past years improveinent projects that had change orders were all considered as one project, a motion was made by 11hil white, seconded by Dan Blonigen and unanimously carried to approve the Change Order 01 to the 1978-1 Improvement Project in the amount of $28,594 with the preliminary determination that the seven parcels served by this extension would also he assessed at the lower rate par parcel by assuming the change order as part of the entire project. The assessments for the Country Club property would then be the same as Country Club Manor and Kempa Estates and those along County Road 39, except for the addi- tional $1,100 for dewatering which would be paid entirely by those seven parcels of the Country Club Property. 9. Consideration of Club On -Sale Intoxicatinq Liquor License - Monticello V.F.W. Club. The Monticollo V.F.W. Club has applied for an on -pale intoxicating liquor license for their new club. The State Statutes do allow for the issuance of an on -sale liquor license provided the V.P.W. club has at least 50 members. Motion wan made by Fran Fair, seconded by Phil White and unanimously carried to approve the issuance of the on -mala liquor license contin- gent upon the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy for the building itself and also the submission of a surety bond in the amount of $3,000 Cto tho City of Monticello. 5 �S Council Minutes - 5/14/79 10. Consideration of Awardinq Contract on aids Received for Fire Department Attack Pumper. The following bids were received Monday, May 14, 1979 at 2:00 P.M., relative to the Fire Department's attack pumper. A. Pierce Manufacturing, Inc. - total bid price $35,600 with delivery within 120 working days (6 months). B. Emergency One, Inc. - total bid price $32,650 with delivery sixty days after receipt of chassis. Mr. Paul Klein, Fire Chief, reviewed the bids received along with the specifications with the fire department members and reported to the Council that they recommended the bid presented by Pierce Manufacturing be ac=opted. Mr. Klein indicated that the reason for the recommendation to accept the higher bid of the two was that the Emergency One vehicle did not meet all the specifications in regards to pump capacity, etc. Mr. Klein also informed the Council that if the Council awarded the bid to Pierce Manufacturing, the joint fire board would review the bids before being presented to the Monticello Township Board for their approval. Motion was made by Phil White, seconded by Dan Blonigen and unanimously carried to award the bid for the one attack pumper and chassis to Pierce Manufacturing, Inc. from Appleton, Wisconsin in the amount of $35,190, including the $410 deduct for the chassis being paid for at time of contract signing. It was noted that this awarding of bids would he on contingent upon p joint Piro board and Monticello Township Board approval. 11. Consideration of Advertisement for Bids for Sealcontinq Various Streets in the City of Monticello. Public Works Director, John Simola, presented to the Council a list of the streets, mostly surfaced in the last four or five years, that were beginning to show signs of wear and could use same aealcoating applica- tions. The nino separate sections of roade to he acalcoated was eati- mated to cost approximately $18,000 to $19,000. Mr. Simola recommended that bids for aealcoating those streets he advertised as soon as possi- ble. Motion was made by Phil White, seconded by Fran Fair and unanimously carried to approve Lha advertising for bids for the aealcoating of the nine aLrooLn listed in Mr. Simoln'a report. (See supplement 5/14/79 N1). 12. Review of Liquor. Store Ouartarly Financial Statements. Liquor Store Manager, Mark lrmiter, reviowod with the Council members tho first quarter financial statements of the off-oale municipal liquor store. Mr. Irmitor noted that sales have increased approximately 19• over the first quarter of 1978 and felt confident that sales could reach $700 - 9725,000 for the year. Mr. _rmitor also noted that although the gross profit pereentagna are a little bit lower than last year, his pricing has remained very competitive duo to now discount atoros located in surrounding communities such as talk River and St. Michael.

The Minutes of the regular council meeting held April 23, 1979, were approved as presented. 14. Discussion on 1977-3 Improvement Proiect. Public Works Director, John Simola, requested that since Arcon Construc- tion Company will be replacing small sections of curbing on Ramsey Street, near Broadway, as part of the 1977-3 Project, Mr. Simola asked that the Council consider replacing also the deteriorated sections of the curb along Broadway at the Corner of Ramsey Street. Mr. Simola indicated that these curbs are in bad shape and should be replaced with pedestrian ramps to the sidewalks, and estimated the cost at about S400. Motion was made by Phil White, seconded by Fran Fair and unanimously carried to authorize the Public Works Director to replace the curbing on the corners of Ramsey and Broadway and also install pedestrian ramps as part of the 1977-3 project. John Simola and engineer, John Badalich, also discussed with the Council the progress of finalizing the 1977-3 street project in relation to the raising of various manholes on the street project. They noted that the contractor, Arcon Construction, was experimenting with various methods of eliminating the bumps over the manholes. Mr. Badalich noted that the methods they have been using do not appear adequate and will result in all the manholes being within 3/4 of an inch from the surface of the street. 15. Miscellaneous. Mr. Wilbur Eck anked that the Council consider adopting a resolution against the storage of nuclear waste at the NSP Plant. After diaeussion by the Council, it was decided that thia item will be brought up at the next Council Meeting if Mr. Eck has any information to present.

Marvin George Builders requested a variance from Monticello Ordinances which require a one-story dwelling to be a minimum of 1,000 square feet on the first floor. The variance request would apply only for those lots in Balboul Estates. Mr. Marvin Goorge presented information at the Planning Commission re- questing a minimum square footage for ramblers of 912 square feet based on the following reasons: 1. Mr. George felt that a good mixture of split entries and ramblers makes a more aesthetic appearing neighborhood. 2. By allowing for a smaller square footage home, it would make it more accessible for the parson in the lower income bracket. 3. Mr. George indicated that bocauso of a loan commitment program from the Federal Housing Administration for hones in Balboul Estates, he is limited in terms of the amount of money he can spend on an indi- vidual home and felt that by lowering tho square footage, he would be able to work within tho scope of the program. The following citizens comments were prosentods Don Chriatonhor indicated opposition to a rambler of less than 1,000 square foot, but indieatod he would not be opposed to split entries if they were loos than 1,000 square foot. Daryl Tindle also indicated his opposition to ramblers boinq leas than 1,000 square foot in tho area. - I - Council Minutes - 5/14i7_ Gordy Jacobson also indicated opposition to the variance request and also asked the Council why some type of diversity can't be required of local builders in a subdivision. He felt that the Council should look into possible ways of controlling what type of homes are built in an area so that they do not all look alike. Hearing no other comments, a motion was made by Phil %lute, seconded by Fran Fair and unanimously carried to deny the variance request for ramblers to be built in Balboul Estates of less than 1,000 square feet. Public Hearing - variance to allow the Use of a Mobile Home as a Sales Office in a B-3 Zone - Scott Potato Company. Scott Potato Company, which operates a potato brokerage office during the potato season south of Monticello Ford on a parcel owned by Larry Flake, requested the following variances: A. Variance from the building code provisions since Mobile Homes do not meet current building codes. B. Variance from the hardsurfaced parking requirements for an office. C. Variance from landscaping requirements for a business. The Scott Potato Company currently leases a parcel of land from Larry Flake and operates out of the mobile home as a sales office. When the new Monticello Ford building was constructed, owner Larry flake agreed that he would no longer allow Scott Potato to lease a parcel from him rolative to the mobile home site after 1978. Scott Potato Company has indicated that they will be looking for a new site to build a building within the Monticello area, but have asked for a one year variance to allow the operation to continue at the present site. The Planning Commission recommended that the variance be granted for one year to allow Scott Potato Company the opportunity to provide a now office. Motion was made by Ken Maud, seconded by Dan Blonigen and unanimously carried to grant a variance to the Scott Potato Company to allow them to remain at the present site until January 1, 1980, at which time_ they would have to move. At the present time, the hardsurfaced parking requirements and landscaping requirements would not be enforced. 3. Public Bearing - Consideration of Variance on Sidevard Setback and Subdivision of Parcel - Mr. F, Mrs. Harry Bannon. Mr. F Mrs. Harry Bandon have requested a variance from Lila oideyard setback requirements of 10' to allow an oxidting garage to have its driplino up to the abutting property line, and also to allow a oub- division of the pareol to allow the garage to he entirely on Lheir own property. The existinq garage was built several years ago, and now it was determined that the garage is located half on the Benson's property and the other half on property owned by the abutting neigh- bor, Kevin Olson. Mr. 6 Mrd. Bandon will be selling their property to Mr. Gono Carlson and have negotiated with Mr. Kevin Olson to purchase - 2 - Council Minutes - 5/14/79 a strip of land that is 10' wide and 135' deep to allow their garage to be entirely on their own property. In exchange for this 10' wide parcel of land, Mr. s Mrs. Benson will be giving T1r. Olson a strip that will be 30' by 66' towards the southerly rear of their property. Mr. Kevin Olson has indicated that he is agreeable to the exchanae of the property with the provision that the City of Monticello go on record as indicating that they would not be opposed if some day Mr. Olson or a subsequent property owner of this parcel would like to build a garage that also needed a sideyard setback variance to the east. Mr. Olson indicated that the reason for this request is that his lot after the sale of 10' becomes quite narrow, and as a result, indicated that he may, in the future, need a variance if a new garage was built on his property. At their last meeting, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the subdivision of land for the extra 10' and also recommended that the Council approve the sideyard setback variance. Motion was made by Ken Maua, seconded by Fran Fair and unanimously carried to approve the following: 1. Subdivision of land contingent upon obtaining a certificate of survey and proof of recording the decd at the Wright County registrar of deeds. 2. Approval of the aideyard setback variance provided the drip line falls on his own property. 3. Recommending to any future Council that if an application for a sideyard variance is requested by Mr. Olson or a subsequent property owner, that the variance be given consideration provided the new garage would be located behind tho existing garage, or shat the pro- per safety precautions were taken care of in regards to fire hazards if the two garages waro aide -by -lido. 4. Public iiearin4 - Consideration of a Variance Request on a Sidoyard Setback - Janet Irving. Mo. Janet Irvine requested a variance to build a garage to within 6' of her property lino. The 24' x 24' proposed garage would be located on lot 5, Block E, Riggs Addition. A letter has been presented from the abutting property owner stating no objection to the garage and the Planning Commission recommended approval Of Lila variance. Motion was made by Fran Fair, seconded by Ken Maus and unanimously carried to approvo the 6' aidayard variance for the garage for Janet Irvine. - 3 - Council Minutes - 5/14/79 5. Public Hearing - Consideration of a Variance Request to allow More than One Accessory Buildinq on a Lot - John Kiebel. Current City Ordinances prohibit more than one garage or accessory build- ing per lot, and Mr. John Kiebel requested a variance to build a double garage on his property in addition to the present single garage that is located now on his property. Mr. Kiebel indicated that he would be using the small garage for storage., which is located in the rear of his property. The Planning Commission, at their last meeting, recommended approval of the variance. Motion was made by Phil White, seconded by Fran Fair and unanimously carried to approve the variance request for the new garage. G. Public Hearinq - Consideration of a Variance Request on Rear Yard Set- back and Subdivision of Land by Mr. 6 Kra. Ed Klein. Mr. 6 Mrs. Ed Klein, who own Lots 1 5 2 of Block 37, Upper Monticello, requested to divide their two lots equally east and west instead of north and south, as presently platted. With the change of the lot line, it became necessary to request a variance because the rear yard setback for the existing house on Lot 2 would only have 26' setback instead of the required 30' setback. ` At the last Planning Commission meeting, approval wan recommended for this variance. Motion was made by Phil White, seconded by Fran Fair and unanimously carried to approve the variance request on the rear setback of 26' rather than 30', and also to approve the subdivision of land provided a certificate of survey is presented to the City and proof of recording of same. 7. Consideration of agU oval of Suhdivision of land` Fd Rivera. Mr. Ed Rivers, owner of Lot 1, Block 1, Kampa Estates, requested approval to sell 15' off the west aide of his property to his neighbor, Mr. Dick Frio. The reason for the request was that Mr. Frio had recently sold off 20' of his property on the west aide due to an error created several years ago in determining the lot lino between him and Mrs. Judy Sandberg. An the result of having his lot reduced by 20', Mr. Fria would like to buy the 15' to the oast from Mr. Rivers to have his property essentially the name size that it originally wan intended to be. The Planning Commission at their last meeting also recommended approval of thio subdivision. Motion was made by Dan Blonigan, seconded by Phil White and unanimously carried to approve the subdivision request provided a new cartificat,> of survey is obtained and proof of recording is completed. - 4 - Council Minutes - 5/14/79 8. Consideration of Change Order M1 on 1978-1 improvement Project for Sewer Extension to the Monticello Country Club's Access Road. At the last Council meeting, representatives of the Monticello Country Club indicated that they desired the sewer be extended on Golf Course Road westerly to their access road. John Badalich, City Engineer, pre- pared a cost estimate for the change order which would total approxi- mately $34,313. Two methods of assessing the cost to the Country Club were discussed by the Council. if this change order was considered as a separate project rather than as part of the entire 1978-1 Project, the cost to the Country Club would be the entire cost of the sewer extension, or $34,000. This would break down to approximately a $4,035 per parcel assessment due to the fact that the other side of Golf Course Road could not be assessed, as they have already been served with sewer. Under this assessment method, only half of the street restoration would be picked up by the City. Under the second method of assessing the Country Club property, the entire cost would be. lumped with the 1978-1 Project cost and spread over the entire area of Country Club Manor and Kampa Estates. This would then, in turn, lower the assessment to approximately $2,690 per parcel for the Country Club while increasing the assessments approximately $150 per parcel for the other lots in Country Club Manor and Kampa Estatoe, etc. Under either method, it was the recommendation of the engineer that the additional cost of $1,100 for dewatering the area for this sewer line should be paid by the Country Club, as the area was once previously dewaterad and this is an addi- tional cost. After noting that during the past years improvement projects that had change orders were all considered as one project, a motion was made by Phil White, seconded by Dan Olenigon and unanimously carried to approve the Change Order 01 to the 1978-1 Improvement Project in the amount of $28,594 with the preliminary determination that the seven parcels served by this extension would also be assessed at the lower rate per parcel by assuming the change order as part of the entire project. The assessments for the Country Club property would than be the same as Country Club Manor and Kampa Estates and those along County Road 39, except for the addi- tional $1,100 for dowatering which would be paid entirely by those soven parcels of the Country Club Property. 9. Consideration of Club On -Salo Intoxicating Liauor License - Monticello V.F.W. Club. The Monticello V.P.W. Club has applied for an on -Bale intoxicating liquor license for their now club. The State Statutes do allow for the inouanco of an on-nalo liquor license provided the V.P.W. club has at least 50 members. Motion was made by Fran Fair, seconded by Phil White and unanimously carried to approve the issuance of the on -Bale liquor license contin- gont upon the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy for the building itself and also the submission of a surety bond in the amount of $3,000 to the City of Monticello. -5- Council 'Minutes - 5/14/79 C 10. Consideration of Awarding Contract on Bids Received for Fire Department Attack Pumper. The following bids were received Monday, May 14, 1979 at 2:00 P.M. relative to the Fire Department's attack pumper. A. Pierce Manufacturing, Inc. - total bid price $35,600 with delivery within 120 working days (6 months). B. Dmergency One, Inc. - total bid price $32,650 with delivery sixty days after receipt of chassis. Mr. Paul Klein, Fire Chief, reviewed the bids received along with the specifications with the fire department members and reported to the Council that they recommended the bid presented by Pierce Manufacturing be accepted. Mr. Klein indicated that the reason for the recommendation to accept the higher bid of the two was that the ❑nergency One vehicle did not meet all the specifications in regards to pump capacity, etc. Mr. Klein also informed the Council that if the Council awarded the bid to Pierce Manufacturing, the joint fire board would review the bids before being presented to the Monticello Township Board for their approval. Motion was made by Phil White, seconded by Dan Blonigen and unanimously carried to award the bid for the one attack pumper and chassis to Pierce Manufacturing, Inc. from Appleton, Wisconsin in the amount of $35,190, including the $410 deduct for the chassis being paid for at time of contract signing. It was noted that this awarding of bids would be contingent upon joint fire board and Monticello Township Board approval. 11. Consideration of Advertisement for Bids for Sealcoatinq various Streets in the City of Monticello. Public Works Director, John Simola, presented to the Council a list of the streets, mostly surfaced in the last four or five years, that were beginning to show signs of wear and could use some aealeoacing applica- tions. The nine separate sections of roads to he sealcoated was esti- mated to cost approximately $18,000 to $19,000. Mr. Simola recommended that bids for soalcoating those streets be advertised as soon as possi- ble. Motion was made by Phil White, seconded by Fran Fair and unanimously carried to approve the advertising for bids for the scaleoating of the nine streets listed in Mr. Simola'o report. (See supplement 5/14/79 xl). 12. Roview of Liquor Store Quarterly Financial Statements. Liquor Store Manager, Mark Irmiter, reviewed with the Council members the first quarter financial statements of the off-aale municipal liquor store. Mr. Irmiter noted that sales have increased approximately 19t over the first quartor of 1978 and felt confident that sales could reach $700 - $725,000 for the year. Mr. Irmiter also noted that although the gross profit percentages are a little bit lower than last year, his pricing has remained vary competitive due to now discount atores located in surrounding communities such as Llk River and St. Michael. The Council accepted the report as presented. (Son supplement 5/14/79 02), •5410 can be deducted from the total bid price if the channis portion is paid for at time of signing contract. council Minutes - 5/14/79 13. Approval of Minutes. The Minutes of the regular council meeting held April 23, 1979, were approved as presented. 14. Discussion on 1977-3 Improvement Project. Public Works Director, John Simola, requested that since Arcon Construc- tion Company will be replacing small sections of curbing on Ramsey Street, near Broadway, as part of the 1977-3 Project, Mr. Simula asked that the council consider replacing also the deteriorated sections of the curb along Broadway at the Comer of Ramsey Street. Mr. Simola indicated that these curbs are in bad shape and should be replaced with pedestrian ramps to the sidewalks, and estimated the cost at about $400. Motion was made by Phil White, seconded by Fran Fair and unanimously carried to authorize the Public Works Director to replace the curbing on the corners of Ramsey and Broadway and also install pedestrian ramps as part of the 1977-3 project. John Simola and engineer, John Badalich, also discussed with the Council the progress of finalizing the 1977-3 street project in relation to the raising of various manholes on the street project. They noted that the contractor, Arcon Construction, was experimenting with various methods of eliminating the bumps over the manholes. Mr. Badalich noted that the methods they have been using do not appear adequate and will result in all the manholes being within 3/4 of an inch from the surface of the street. 15, Mlocallancous. Mr. Wilbur Eck asked that the Council consider adopting a resolution against the storage of nuclear wanto at the NSP Plant. After discussion by tho Council, it was decided that this item will be brought up at the next Council Meeting if Mr. Eck hos any information to present. Motion was made by Dan Blonigen, seconded by Ken Maus and unanimously carried, the meeting was adjourned. I?. ick wolfotq ler Assistant A'minlatrotor Wee C 7 .

Yours truly, Jo Sandberg JS/ml AGE14DA SUPPLEMENT 1. Public Hearinq on a Variance Request from the Minimum Square Footaqe Requirements of a Rambler - Marvin Georqe Builders in Balboul Estates. t_,vin George Builders has made an application for a variance from Monticello Ordinance 10-3-4-(G)-(1) which requires a one-story dwelling to be a minimum of 1,000 square feet on the first floor. This variance request is for Balboul Estates. Mr. Marvin George presented information at the Planning Commission indica- ting that he would like to have a variance to build ramblers that would be 24' x 38', or 912 square feet. These homes would be three-bedroom homes. The purpose for the variance request according to Mr. George is as follows: A. Mr. George felt that a good mixture of split entries and ramblers makes an area more aesthetic in appearance then an area with all split entries. Mr. George indicated that if a variance weren't granted, that he would have to build all split entries in Balboul Estates. (It should be noted that the minimum square footage of a split entry for Monticello is 750 square feet and Mr. George's plans for split entries do exceed this minimum requirement). B. By having a smaller minimum requirement for square footage or granting a variance to Mr. Marvin George, he felt that the cost of homes would be reduced and would make it more accessible for the person in a lower income bracket. C. if a variance were granted, split entry homes and the ramblera he intends to build in Balboul Estates would cost about the name amount of money. Mr. Marvin George had also indicated previously that because of a commitment from the Federal (lousing Administration for homes in Balboul Estates, he is quite limited in terms of the amount of money he can spend on any individual home, and by reducing the minimum square footage, he would be able to work within the scope of the program. As a matter of policy, the so-called splits whore the basement area in far enough out of the ground to provide for the development of habitable space is considered as a two-story building and allowed an long as the first floor is over 750 square foot, and also this policy in used whore a rambler of 750 square foot has a walkout basement and there is development potential in the basement for at least 250 square fact of habitable space. 11owover, whore a rambler is leas than 1,000 square foot, and no habitable space can be provided in the basement, a variance would be nocoasary. For your information, the building coda dofinos habitable spaco as "apace in a structure for living, sleeping, eating and cooking." Bathrooms, toilet compartments, clonota, hallo, storage or utility spaces and similar areas are not considered habitable space. - 1 - Council Agneda - May 14, 1979 One very important requirement of habitable space is the window require- ment, which says "all habitable rooms within a dwelling unit shall be provided with natural light with means of exterior glazed openings with an area of not less than 1/10th of the floor area with a minimum of 10 square feet per room. Windows shall have a minimum net clearing opening of 5.7 square feet with a net clear heighth of no less than 24" and a net clear width of no less than 20"," that is, a window 24" high would have to be 34.2" wide to obtain the required 5.7 sq. ft. net clear opening. At the Planning Commission meeting (see minutes of May 1, 1979), testimony was received from various property owners in opposition to the variance request. The Planning Commission voted unanimously to recommend denial of this variance request to the City Council. Reasons for this recommenda- tion are as follows: A. Concern for property values in the immediate and surrounding areas. B. Concern that there would be enough space for the inhabitants of a dwelling, and felt that the 1,000 square foot requirement was a realistic minimum. C. Concern for the small bedroom size that would be in the rambler that is 912 square feet. These bedrooms would be approximately 10' x 10', or 100 square feet. It would seem that there is certainly some merit in going to a smaller type of home in light of the current situation and the cost of heating a large home, and also in light of the price of homes. with the price of homes far exceeding the consumer price index, it is obviously very hard for a young couple or other families within a low to moderate income range to afford now housing. This concern, however, must be balanced with the concern of a City as a whole to retain its own character, identity and tax base, along with preserving the rights of its citizens along with the health and welfare of the community so a whole. It should be noted that previously the City had two conflicting ordinances, one requiring at least 1,100 square feet on the first floor above grade, and the present ordinance which indicates 1,000 square fest for one-story homes and 750 square feat for two-story homes, and the City did amend the ordinance to delete the provision which required 1,100 square foot.

Public Hoaring - Variance to Allow the Use of a Mobile Ilomo as a Sales office in a 0-3 Zone - Scott Potato Comj+:ny. Scott Potato Company, which operates a potato brokerage office during the potato season south of Monticello Ford, on a parcel owned by Larry Flake, is requesting the following variances, i A. Varianco from building code provision. Mobile home does not moot building code, and it would have boon considered no grandfathored int however, it hag boon moved to a different location on the parcel and thug would be subject to the building code. -Variances require 4/510 veto - 2 - of Council for approval. Council Agenda - May 14, 1979 B. Variance from hardsurface parking requirements for an office. C. Variance from Landscaping requirements. Currently, the parcel that Scott Potato Company is situated on is owned by Larry Flake and leased to Scott Potato Company. The Monticello Ford site is a different parcel and is in the name of Monticello Ford Corporation. It should be pointed out when Larry Flake was initially issued a temporary certificate of occupancy for the Monticello Ford site, it was agreed upon that he, Larry Flake, would no longer allow Scott Potato to lease a parcel from him relative to the mobile home site after 1978. It should be further pointed out that there is no previous record that this mobile home site was approved initially when it was in the Township of Monticello. At their Planning Commission meeting of May 1, 1979, the City received testimony from Mr. Myron Jensen, who spoke in favor of the variance and indicated that it was his understanding that Scott Potato Company is only asking for a one-year variance. While there was no representative from Scott Potato Company at the Planning Commission meeting, the Conaaission did vote unanimously to allow Scott Potato Company to operate from the present site for a period of one year, and at that time, the Scott Potato Company would have to meet all City requirements. It should be noted that Scott Potato Company apparently Q is looking for another site in the Monticello area to build a building, etc. POSSIBLE ACTION:• Consideration of approval or denial of variance request, and also any time period that might be put on the variances.

Mr. 6 Mrs. Harry Benson, owners of Lots 6 6 7, in Block 11 bower Monticello, are requesting the following: A. Variance from aidayard setback requirements of 10' to allow an existing garage to have its drip -lino right up to the abutting property line to the went. B. Subdivision of parcol to allow a garage to be entirely on their own property. Pleaso rofor to the copy of the photograph an this property and also a site layout plan. An you can Boo by the site layout plan, there is an existing garage that straddlon the property lino between that of Mr, c Mrs. Harry Benson and that of Kovin Olson to the want. Apparently, this garage was built before a permit was roquirod several years ago, and now the situation is trying to be rectified in light of a potential aalo that Mr. c Mrs. L Harry Benson have on their property to Mr. Gone Carlson. Mr. 6 Mrs, Menson aro negotiating to purchase a strip of land that will be 10' wide and 135' deep from Mr. Kevin Olson to allow their garage to be entirely on their own parcel. In exchange for this parcel, Mr. G Mrs. Benson will give Mr. Nevin *Variances require 4/519 veto of Council for approval. - 3 Council Agenda - May 14, 1979 Olson a strip that will be 30' x 66' towards the southerly rear end of their property. Approval on two issues is necessary from the City of Monticello on the sub- division of land that is oceuring and also to grant a variance on the side - yard setback minimum requirement of 10'. This is necessary since the garage still will infringe upon the 10' setback requirement. Obviously, the situation that will be created relative to the setback will be better than it currently is, as the garage currently straddles the proper; line. According to John Sandberg and Mr. and Mrs.Harry.Benson, Mr. Olson is agreeable to the exchange of the property with the provision that the City of Monticello go on record as indicating they would not be opposed if some- day Mr. Olson or a subsequent property owner of this parcel would build a garage that would need a sideyard setback variance to the east. Reason for this request is that Mr. Olson's lot becomes rather narrow, 561, as a result of deeding over the 10' of his property to Mr. 6 Mrs. Harry Benson. While it is realized that one city council cannot bind another one, Mr. Olson would feel more comfortable with the situation if, at least at a minimum, the current city council went on record indicating they would not oppose the variance. As a result of having this in the Minutes of the City Council, Mr. Olson feels that he or a subsequent buyer of this land will have a better chance of getting a variance in the future if it does become necessary. It would seem that the request of the sideyard setback variance and the subdivision are reasonable. However, there is some concern with the City Council going on recurd as not opposing a variance in regard to a future garage to be built by Mr. Olson or a subsequent property owner of the parcel. Reason for this, as you can see by the enclosed site layout, is that if a garage were built in the same area of the other garage, there would be the possibility of these two garages almost touching each other, and of course, there would be concern relative to a fire hazard. There might M some consideration for stipulating that the City of Monticello would go on record supporting such a varianco if the garage on the Olson property were sot back further to the south so as not to be adjacent to the Benson garage. You might recall a situation somewhat like this where there were two existing garages adjacent to each other, and the City of Monticello did grant a variance for a now garage to be built in the same area. However, this case diffore in the fact that there is only one existing garage at the present time. At their Planning Commission mooting of May 1 , 1979, the Commiosion voted unanimously to recommend approval of the subdivision of land as indicated, and also, to recommend to the Council that they approve the sideyard setback variance. They also recommended that the City Council go on record as in favor of a oidoyard setback variance for the Kevin Olson property, provided that proper safety precautions were taken care of. By this provision, the Planning Commission intended to inoure that either the garage were cot back far enough from the garage that currently Oita on the Benson property, or adequate safety precautions such as a fire wall were created between the two proportion. - 4 - Council Agenda - May 14, 1979 It should be noted that the approval of the subdivision of land should be contingent upon obtaining a certificate of survey and proof of recording the deed at the County Registrar of Deeds. POSSIBLE ACTION:• Consideration of: 1 - approval of subdivision of land with the above conditions; 2 - approval of sideyard setback variance; 3 - consideration of statement going on record for the current city council as recommending to any future council to approve of the variance with the stipulations indicated above.

Public liearinq - Consideration of a Variance Request to Allow more than One Accessory Buildinq - John Kiebel. Pursuant to Monticello Ordinance Section 10-3-2-(D)-(5) which prohibits more than one garage or accessory building per lot, Mr. John Kiobel is requesting a variance to build a double garage on his property (Lots 3 6 0, and A of 2 6 9, Block 36, Lower Monticello), the address of which is 424 E. 4th Street. Currently, this is zoned R-2, single and two-family residential. Currently, Mr. Kiobol has one single garage on his property sitting on permanent footings, and is proposing to make this an accessory or storage building for such items as lawn mower, step ladder, tools, etc. -Variances require 4/5's vote - 5 of Council for approval. Council Agenda - May 14, 1979 ` Purpose of the above ordinance is to ensure that a lot is not entirely occupied by several accessory buildings which could present a fire hazard along with preserving the aesthetic appearance of a residential neighborhood. At their last meeting, the Planning Commission voted unanimously to recommend approval of the variance. Subsequent to the Planning Commis- sion meeting, we have received a letter from an abutting property owner stating they have no objection to this garage being built.

Mr. s Mrs. Ed Klein, who own Lots 1 & 2 of Block 37, Upper Monticello, which is on the corner northeast of the intersection of 3rd s Linn Streets, propose to divide their lots in order to have the length run east and west instead of north and south. With the change of the lot line, it is necessary to request a variance because the rear yard setback for the existing house on lot 2 would only be 26' instead of the required 30'. (See enclosed plat plan). Although the hearing for variances are held at the Council level, at this point the City has received no objections from surrounding property owners. At their last meeting, the Planning Commission voted unanimously to recommend approval of the variance request and subdivision of land. POSSIBLE ACTION:• Consideration of approval of variance request on rear setback requirement, and subdivision of land with the provision that a certificate of survey be presented to the City and proof of recording of the same.

It should be noted that Lot 1, Block 1 of Kampa Eatateo in the site of an existing home that was previously owned by Mr. Nick Kampa and occupied by his mother.

Consideration of Chanqe Order N1 on 1978-1 Improvement Project for Sewer Extension to Monticello Country Club's Access Road. Enclosed, please find a May 3, 1979 letter from John Badalich relative to the estimated cost of a change order to service Country Club property with sewer extensions up to their access road. As you may recall, this item was discussed at the City Council's last meet- ing, and was decided that the Monticello Country Club should get back in touch with the City as to whether they would desire the improvement. Since that time, the City of Monticello has received a formal request from the Country Club, in writing, requesting the extension of sanitary sewer to the access road. It should be noted that the formal request was received prior to the May 3, 1979 letter from John Badalich, and the Country Club was not aware of the specific costa involved with this extension. As a result of this situation, I am sending a copy of Mr. Badalich's letter of May 3, 1979 to the Country Club for information purposes, and I am sure that they will have representatives at the meeting on Monday night. As you can see by John Badalich's letter, tho entire project coot would be $34,313. Following is a brief review of the two alternative methods of assessing this cost against the Country Club, ASSESSMENT ASSESSMENT METHOD 1 METHOD 2 Construction Costa $28,594 $28,594 Indirect Costa (20%) + 5,719 + 5,719 50% Stroot Restoration - 6,068 - 6,068 Assessments to other parcels -8- - 9,415- t28,245 $18,830 7 parcels ;- 7 parcels $4,035/parcal $2,690/parcol 'This cost would be spread to Country Club Manor, Kampa Estates and other parcels along Woot County Road #39. increasing ass000- mont approximatoly $150 per parcel.. Aa you can see from the above, method of a000sament to the Country Club is of prime concern, as there is a difference of approximately $1,345 per parcel botwoon method one and method two. It should be pointed out that the reason under method one for the increased cost is that the entire project, except for hole of the street restoration (which has boon a pro- viouo Council policy, but does not necessarily have to be carried forward) - 7 - Council Agenda - May 14, 1979 is proposed to be assessed against the Country Club itself on the seven parcels to be improved. In Method 2, there is approximately $9,415 to be spread against other parcels, reducing the per parcel assessment to the Country Club for its seven parcels to $2,690. Had the Country Club initially been platted out and requested the sewer service all the way to the access road, Method 2 would have probably been proposed for assessment. This area is quite expensive to serve since the sanitary sewer runs along only the north side of County Road 39, and the assessment cannot be divided between two sides of the street. This is true because on the south side of County Road 39, the parcels in Country Club Manor are served off of the side roads that go through the plat. In the .past, Council policy has been to treat any change orders as part of the overall improvement project and to spread the additional cost of any change order over the entire project. As a result, Method 2 would be consistent with this policy. However, in the past also, the City has looked at each individual change order on a case by case hasis to determine what effect this might have on other parcels that are part of the project. It should be noted that there is only one cost, which is $1,100 for dewatering, which would be an extra charge due to the fact that this area has already been dewatered and it would have to be dewatered again. This $1,100 would be assessed entirely under either method against the Country Club. All other costs remain the same from the original contract because it is on a unit price basis. There may be some argument for going to Method 1, that is assessing the entire assessment portion against the Country Club, since if this change order were not part of the current project and were done as a separate project, this is the cost the Country Club would have to pay for this improvement. As a third alternative, there may be some compromise between Method 1 and Method 2, and that being that 50% of the $9,415 would be picked up by the Country Club, and the remaining portion could be spread over the other parcels. It should be noted that the City definitely has a choice on whether to approve thio change order or not, and the final determination of the assessment method comes at the time the actual assessment hearing is hold once the project is completed. However, because of the vast amount of difference, some determination should be made on how this area would be treated. POSSIBLE ACTION: Consideration of approving change order and also pre- liminary determination of how area would be assessed. REFERENCES: Enclosed May 3, 1979 letter from John Badalich. 9. Consideration of Club On -Salo Intoxicating Liquor License - Monticello V.F.W. Club (Incorporated Name - V.F.W. Dorchester Post 8731). An application has boon received from the Monticello VFW Club for a Club On -Salo Intoxicating Liquor License, according to Minnesota Statutuae, the VFW Club, since they have more than the required number of members (50) and also meet other criteria spoiled out in the Statutoo. It should be pointed out that the Statutes provide that the City of Monticello can only charge $100 for ouch a license (this is exactly the same license fee the City now receives from the American Legion Club. License is only for the retail sale of liquor to members and bona fide gueots of the VFW Club. -s- Council Agenda - May 14, 1979 Any approval of this license should be contingent upon the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy for the building itself, which the VFW will use the license for, which is just to the east of the Perkins Cake s Steak, and also of the submission of a surety bond which is required by Statute in the amount of $3,000 to the City of Monticello. POSSIBLE ACTION: Consideration of Approval or denial based upon the above conditions of a Club On -Sale Liquor License to the VFW Club. 10. Consideration of Awarding Contract on Bids Received for Fire Department Attack Pumper. Bids are to be received Monday, May 14, 1979, at 2:00 P.M. relative to the fire department's attack pumper. I have asked Paul Klein, the Fire Chief, to be at the bid opening on Monday afternoon and also to make a recommendation to the City Council at Monday night's meeting as to the award of a contract on the above item. It should be pointed out that since Monticello has a joint fire district with the Township, any action that the Council takes would also have to be approved by the Monticello Township Board also. POSSIBLE ACTION: Consideration of approving of contract on bids received for the Monticello Fire Department attack pumper. 11. Consideration of Advertisement for Bids for Sealcoatinq Various Streets in the Citv of Monticello. Enclosed, please find a report from our Public Works Director, John Simola, relative to sealcoating various streoto in the City of Monticello. It should be noted that in the 1979 budget, $17,000 was allocated for this project, and the estimated cost of this project will be approximately $18,900. POSSIBLE ACTION, Consideration of authorization for the City of Monticello to advertise for bids for sealcoating the various streets mentioned in John Simola'o report. REFF.RENCESt John Simola'a report, and enclosed map depicting areas to to ooalcoatod. 12. Review of Liquor Store Ouarterly Financial Statements. Enclosed with the Agenda, please find the let Quarter Financial Statements for the Municipal Liquor Store operations. Mark Irmiter, tho Manager, will be at Monday night's mooting to review the statement with the Council. As you will note, sales have increased 19% for the let Quarter of 1979 over 1976 lot Quarter figures. Traditionally, the first throe months of the year are the slow periods, and if the percentage increase continues, solos could reach $700,000 for the year. 9 - A C Council Agenda - May 14, 1979 • In an effort to remain competitive, the gross profit percentages are lower than the 1st Quarter percentages of 1978, but Mr. Irmiter is reviewing his pricing policies to see if they should be raised. POSSIBLE ACTION: No action is necessary other than review with Nr. Irmiter.

Members Present: Jim Ridgeway, Fred Topel, Ed Schaffer, Dick Martie. Loren Klein (ex -officio) Members Absent: Dave Bauer 1. Approval of Minutes. A motion was made by Ed Schaffer, seconded by Fred Topel and unanimously carried to approve the Minutes of April 17, 1979 as presented. 2. Consideration of a Variance on a Sidevard Setback and Subdivision of a Parcel - Mr. 6 Mrs. Harry Benson. Mr. s Mrs. Harry Benson, owners of Lots 6 s 7 in Block 11 in Lower Monticello, are requesting the following: A. Variance from sideyard setback requirements of 10' to allow an existing garage to have its drip line right up to the abutting property lino to the west. B. Subdivision of parcel to allow a garage to be entirely on their own property. Currently, there is an existing garage that straddles the property line between that of Mr. L Mrs. Harry Benson and that of Kevin Olson. Apparently, this garage was built beforo a permit was required several years ago, and now the situation is trying to be rectified in light of a potential sale that Mr. s Kra. Harry Henson have of their property to Mr. Gene Carlson. Mr. s Mrs. Benson aro negotiating to purchase a strip of land that will be 10' wide and 135' deep from Mr. c Kra. Kevin Olson to allow their garage to be entirely on their own parcel. In exchange for thio parcel, Kr. 6 Mrs. Benson will give Mr. Kevin Olson a strip that will be 30' x 66' towards the southerly rear end of their property. A motion wan made by Dick Martin, seconded by Fred Topol and unanimously carried to approve the subdivision as indicated above. A motion was made by Dick Martin, seconded by Fred Topol and unanimously carried to approve of the aidoyard setback variance. A motion wan made by Dick Martin, seconded by Prod Topel and unanimously carried to recommend to the City Council that they go on record as approving a aidoyard notback variance from the cant property lino for Mr. s tire. Kovin Olson or a subsequent owner of their parcel. This variance would I apply to the possibility of a future garage being built on the parcel owned by Mr. s Kra. Kevin Olson, and also the motion wan contingent upon all safety precautions being taken care of at the time. Purposn of thin motion was to satisfy Kr. a Mrs. Kevin Olson for their concern in allowing 10' of their easterly property lino to be deeded over to Mr, s Mrs. Harry Ronson Minutes - Planning Coam. - 5/1/79 and what effects this may have on a future garage if they were to build one on their parcel or a subsequent owner were to build one. it is further understood that if the Council ultimately decides to accept the recommendation, that one council cannot bind another. 3. Consideration of a Variance Request on a Rear Yard Setback - ::r. 6 Mrs. Ed Klein. Mr. 6 Mrs. Ed Klein, who owns lots 1 5 2 of Block 37, Upper Monticello, propose to divide their lots in order to have the length run east and west instead of north and south. With the change of lot line, it is necessary to request a variance because the rear yard setback for the existing house on Lot 2 would only be 26' instead of the required 30' Motion was made by Fred Topel, seconded by Ed Schaffer and unanimously carried to approve of the variance request. 4. Consideration of a variance Request on Sideyard Setback - Janet Irvine. Janet Irvine would like to build a garage on her property, Lot 5, Block E, Riggs Addition, within 6' of the sideyard property line. Address is 325 E. 4th Street. Ms. Irvine has presented a letter from the abutting property owner stating no objection to the proposed 24' x 24' garage. A motion was made by Ed Schaffer, seconded by Fred Topel and unanimously carried to approve <_ of the variance request. C 5. Consideration of a Variance Request for Two Accessory Buildinqs - John Kiebel. Mr. John Kiebel is requesting a variance to build a double garage on his property at 424 East 4th Street (Lots 3 s B, and W 5 of 2 s 9, Block 36 Lower Monticello). A variance is necessary because the Monticello Ordinance does not allow more than one garage or accossory building per lot. Presently, Mr. Kiahel has one single garage on his property setting on permanent footings, and is proposing to make an accessory building out of it if he builds his now garage. A motion wan made by Dick Martie, seconded by Ed Schaffer and unanimously carried to approve of the variance request. 6. Consideration of Variance Request from Minimum First Floor Square Foot - ago Requirements - Marvin George - Balboul Estates. Marvin George Builders has made an application for a variance from Monticello Ordinances requiring a ono -story dwelling to be a minimum of 1,000 square feat on the first floor. - 2 - 16I r14 7 Minutes - Planning Comm. - 5/1/79 Mr. Marvin George presented information at the meeting indicating that he would like to have a variance to build homes that would be 24' x 38', l or 912 square feet. These homes would be three bedroom. Purpose for the variance request according to Mr. George is as follows: A. Mr. George felt a good mixture of split entries and ramblers makes an area more aesthetic in appearance than an area with all split entries. Mr. George indicated if a variance weren't granted, that he would have to build all split entries in Balboul Estates. B. By having a smaller minimum requirement for square footage or granting a variance to Mr. Marvin George, he felt that the cost of homes would be reduced and would make it more accessible to the person in a lower income bracket. C. If the variance were grdnted, split entry homcsand the ramblers he intends to build in Balboul Estates would cost about the same amount of money. Mr. George further indicated that similar homes of the same size are being built in Elk River, Clearwater and Buffalo. Following is testimony received from residents opposed to the variance: Don Christopher - Opposed to the variance, and felt that a home the size of 28' x 421, or 1,176 square feat was about as small as the City should allow. I Paul Lindblad - feels the variance would change the quality of the community, and was opposed. Daryl Tindle - Opposed as it would devalue homes in the area. Motion was made by Ed Schaffor, seconded by Dick Martie and unanimously carried to recommend to the Council that they deny the variance request. 7. Consideration of Variances Relative to the Use of a Mobile Nome as a Sales Office in a 8-3 Zone - Scott Potato Company. Scott Potato Company, which operates a potato brokerage office during the potato season south of Monticello Ford on a parcel owned by Larry Flake, is requesting the following varianceos A. Variance from building code provisions. Mobile home does not meet building code, and would have boon considered as grandfathored ins however, it has bean moved to a difforent location and this would to subject to the building code. D. Variance from hardourfaco parking requirements for an office. C. variance from landscaping requirements. - 3 - / rpt.•• 7 Minutes - Planning Comm. - 5/1/79 Mr. Myron Jensen spoke in favor of the variance and indicated that it was his understanding that Scott Potato Company is only asking for a ` one year variance. A representative from Scott Potato Company was not at the meeting; however, a motion was made by Fred Topel, seconded by Ed Schaffer and unanimously carried to grant a one-year variance to allow Scott Potato Company to use the mobile home at the present site without any improvements. 8. Consideration of Approval of a Subdivision of Land - Mr. Ed Rivers. Mr. Ed Rivers would like approval to sell 15' of his property on the west side to his neighbor, Mr. Dick Frie. Legal description of this parcel is Lot 1, Block 1 of Kampa Estates. In selling this property, Mr. Rivers would be reducing his present lot from 16,875 square feet down to 14,850 square feet, which would still leave the lot 2,850 square feet larger than is necessary in that zoning, which is R-1. Motion was made by Dick Martic, seconded by Ed Schaffer and unanimously carried to approve of the variance request contingent upon a certificate of survey being presented to the City before final approval. 9. Consideration of Scheduling Hearing on Ordinance Amendment for Blacktop or Concrete Driveways. City Administrator, Gary Wicber, informed the Planning Commission that the Council previously had deleted,a building code section provi- Dion within the Ordinances which had required that all driveways, including single and two family residences, to have blacktop or concrete driveways. with the deletion of the Ordinance in the building code section, the only provision the City now hau relative to driveways is in the zoning ordinance section, which requires all driveways to be hardourfaced with concrete or blacktop, except for single and two family dwellings. As a result of some of the concerns expressed at the meeting of the Planning Commiasion, it was felt that this ordinance certainly d000rven consideration, and it wan decided to advertise an ordinance amendment for the Planning Comamisaion's next meeting, May 15, 1979, to consider the ordinance amendment which would require all driveways to be hardourfaced with concrete or blacktop, including Dingle and two-family raoidences. This provision would be required for all now rosidencoo. A motion was made by Ed Schaffer, aaconded by Dick Martio and unani- mously carried to/adjourn the meeting. carior , City Administrator r v GW/ns - 4 - /tAru 7 ./r(• ,. r .r ... t. �•i �' SIN pR0 ,,, ltz •.r� .f n • .a•.J �( J A. 4 � � 1 _`'�Z �� r.�y� y.•` � i �' .� HF'i`� ,, tr � .`•.•J � •"'^ l'� � IM '-�....,��"•--...'J jr�.� �tiJ �'1. -.., f ' c"3 L-� p,,; r � HIGHWAY N0. 90PaT... t"m storm L r �anson alSon 0 1 u�`� 0 0 Gentlemen: This is to inform you that I, as owner of Lot 6.

Consulting Engineers Land Surveyors May 3, 1979 Mr. Gary Wieber City Administrator City of Monticello 250 East Broadway Monticello, Minnesota 55362 Re: Change Order No. 1 Improvement No. 78-1 Dear Gary: Pursuant to our several discussions and based on the request you received from the "golfing". Country Club representatives, I am submitting for the City Council Is• review. and considera- tion the information and coats relative to this request. As you know, when Project 78-1 was awarded to Northdale Con- struction Company in late August 1978, that•part of the Country Club's property, along the north side of County Road No. 39 from the Country Club's entrance opposite Country Club Street thence eastward approximately 7001. which is opposite Gillham's home,•this section was not to receive sanitary sewer. Only water main was planned to be placed in the north ditch of C.R. 439 which in effect saved the roadway surfacing in that sewer was not being installed. However, to facilitate a future sewer extension to the Country Club property, we did stub out a sewer line northward from the last manhole opposite Gillham's home for future connection to the property in ques- tion via a frontage road east and west. Based on unit prices in the Northdalo contract, the cost of the requested sewer extension would be $28,594.00 (construction only) which includes an extra of $1,100.00 for dowatering. This area was once dowatered by the contractor so the dowatering at this time would be additional work and this figure also includes the added fuel costa. This total figure also includes seven sower service connections to property line and the coat of stroot restoration (CR 139) which amounts to $10,120.00. The Council should also note that this requested sanitary sower would only servo the Country Club property (north side of CR 139) O 27 l ;rsr aw,ipfirpin Avomie . Suao 233 • Alinneapnlis, Minrresoia 55.113 • u l7l ?71 '! .D Mr. Gary Wieber May 3, 1979 Page Two t as the property on the south side, Country Club Manor, will be served from side, -streets so the assessable costs will be sub- stantially higher to this northerly. •property•if considered as a single project. As you know in larger projects, such as Project 78-1, even though sewers or water main are constructed on the so-called side streets to complete the system and .provide looping in the case of water main construction, all costs are lumped together and the assessable costs calculated on the basis of parcel or front footage, so that property, such as in this case, are not penalized because of the one -side situation. Therefore, based on the cost noted above and the estimated indirect costs of 208, the total change order cost is $34,313.00. Further, based on seven parcels (north side only) the cost of sewer service would be approximately $4,035.00 per parcel. The approximate assessment for sewer under Project 78-1, based on the original contract was calculated at $2,135.00 per parcel without lift station cost and $2,540.00 per parcel with the lift station costa. You can note the difference when only,one side is assessed for L the full improvement. Recalculating the entire project and assuming the $1,100.00 dewatering cost will be borne by the Country Club property, the $2,540.00 per parcel amount will be $2,690.00 per parcel and applicable- to the Country Club property plus $190.00 per parcel for dewatering, which then would total $2,880.00 per parcel for the Country Club property now being considered for sewer extension. I have sent the change order to the Contractor for his signature and this will be available to the Council prior to execution of the change order by the City Council. If you have any questions in this regard, please give me a call. Yours very truly, ORR-SCHELEN-MAYERON ASSOCIATE ohn P.

MINNESOTA 55362 TELEPHONE (612) 2952711 MONTICELLO METRO LINE 3335139 a century -old city with a nuclear age view May 10, 1979 City Council Members City Council Monticello, hod. 55362 Dear Council Members: The following list of streets were surfaced mostly in the last 4-5 years. They are beginning to show signs of wear. Some cracks have developed as well as portions of the surface have worn away leaving a more porous and brittle mat which is increasingly susceptible to weathering. We propose to seal coat these streets: 1. River Street - Hwy. 75 to just west of Chestnut St. 2. Oakwood Lane - East of River St. 3. willow Street - River St. to Hwy. 75. L. Hillcrest Road - River St. to River St. 5. Hilltop Drive - River St. to Dead Ehd. 6. Sandy Lane - Hwy. 75 to River St. 7. Otter Creek Road - River St. to Hwy. 75. S. Hillcrest Circle - North of Hwy. 75. 9. Pinewood Elementary School - Hwy. 75 to Chestnut. A seal coat is the final. application placed on an asphalt surfacing. It is a tough wearing surface that must carry the traffic and yeL be supported by the base and subsoil. It is also the final coating placed on a bituminous surface for maintenance purposes after correction of any flaws in the roadway to provide a tough wearing, continuous surface resistant to water infiltration. welcome to.."— T. MONTICELLO ...little mountain Generally there are three types of seal coats: inverted penetration, thin hot mixes and slurry seals. We are proposing the inverted pence tration method for the Monticello streets. In this method, a heated liquid asphalt is applied to the clean road surface and covered im- mediately with rock clips a maximum 3/8^ in size. The surface is then rolled with a rubber tire roller. The excess rock is then swept up at a later date. Seal coating should be applied every 4 to 5 years depending on the traffic over the mat and subsoil beneath it as well as weather conditions. yjohn Simola Public Works Director is/lg Li C 11 ✓.ru w.u.\ + f ..�.�s .Y, y.
