AGENDA SUPPLEMENT
Agenda Item 2. Public Hearing - Preliminary Plat and Rezoning -
Howard Gillham.
This plat and rezoning were subjects of hearings at
our special meeting on February 7, 1978. The hearing
was recontinued to February 21, 1978.
At the last meeting the Planning Commission recommended
two changes be made:
1) no direct driveway accesses off County #39
2) entire area south of ring road remain commercial
Bob Rohlin, engineer for Mr. Gillham has revised the plat
so that driveways do not access directly off County #39.
Additionally, the plat has reduced so that only the area
to the north of the ring road is platted. As a result, the
entire area to the south can remain commercial. It would
appear to me that the changes that have taken place are
beneficial based on the followings
I) no direct driveway access from County #39
2) entire area south of ring road remains commercial
3) there are no accesses from the north onto the ring
road allowing for a smooth traffic flow
4) plat will not require acquisition of land for the
ring road at this time or for sanitary sewer to
serve the plat.
(Our engineers are reviewing the best way to serve the
area with sanitary sewer and it may be most economical
to acquire land to the east, however, the plat is laid
out in such a fashion that it could be served from County
#39 - although possibly more costly.)
Ono additional advantage to property owner is that the
billboards could remain along Interstate $94 since the
area will remain commercial. Should the platted area
develop rapidly as residential, the owner(s) of the
property to the south of the ring road could apply for
rezoning at a later date if they want.
A copy of the plat has been sent with the agenda to allow
for a more thorough review by each Planning Commission
member. Please bring these to the meeting so that I
might eventually send to each councilmember.

POSSIBLE ACTION: Consideration of approval of prelim-
inary plat and rezoning area to north of ring road from
B-4 (Regional Business) to R-1 (Single Family Resieentia).

Agenda Item 3. Public Hearing - Consideration of Rezoning Lots 11 12,
and 131 Block C, Lower Monticello or Entire North I of
Block C from R-2 (Single and Two Family Residential) to
B-4 (Regional Business).
Joseph Peterson, owner of the home located at 348 E.
Broadway, is requesting the rezoning of his property from
R-2 to B-4 for the purpose of setting up a hair styling
shop in the residential home.
Mr. Peterson, a real estate agent from Buffalo, recently
purchased the home on Lots 11, 12, and 13 and has a
potential buyer for the home who wishes to use the house
as his residence along with a hair styling shop.
After reviewing the "Home Occupations, definition in the
zoning ordinances, it appears that numerous variances
would have to be granted for the proposed hair styling
shop to exist in the currently zoned residential property.
The potential buyer of this property hopes to expand to
two operators in a year or so which would certainly
create more than one car for off street parking.
Home occupations allow only the residents of the property
to conduct the business and allow only one car for off
street parking at a time.
Mr. Peterson did contact some of the area residents who
signed a statement indicating that they would not object:
to a halt, styling shop or to rezoning of the entire north
i of Bl ock C.
From the list of signatures presented, only Joan Brouillard
actually owns property in the areo proposed for rezoning.
It should be noted that Mr. Brouillard's property has
been "grandfatherod in" for commercial uses while other
abutting property owner's affected by rezoning, have
-2-
2-21-78
indicated opposition to the rezoning and feel it should
remain residential.
Dick Dwinell, consulting planner, has recommended against
"spot zoning" of individual parcels and does not feel
that the north s of this block should be commercial,
which would result in a strip of commercial property
along East Broadway. The Revised Comprehensive Plan
proposes to leave this area R-2.
POSSIBLE ACTION: Consideration of approving or denying
rezoning request. (If approved, recommendations regarding
the rezoning of entire north a of block.)
REFERENCES: Map depicting area.
Agenda Item 4. Public Hearing - Conditional Use Permit - Pet Hospital.
At the Planning Commission's September 1977 meeting, a
building permit and conditional use permit was approved
for Joel Erickson to build a Pet Hospital within a B-3
(Highway Business) zone on the east side of Highway 25
just south of the I-94 Interchange.
Dr. Erickson has now decided to build on property owned
by the Shopping Center. The building would be a separate
structure of approximately 3000 square feet. (Plana for
building are the same as before). A site plan has been
presented showing the location of the proposed building
which is about 150 feet north of the shopping center and
situated on an area that is now blacktopped.
Since the shopping center area is in a B-3 (Highway Busi-
ness) zone, a conditional use permit would be necessary.
Following, aro the conditions for a Pet Ilospital in a
B-3 zone.
1. No outside pens or kennels.
2. Annual inspection by City Ilcalth Officer at owner's
expense.
3. All animals must be leashed.
4. Treatment would be limited to small domesticated
animals.
5. Sideyard setbacks would be 20 feet instead of 10
feet.
6. No outside storago of carcasses.
POSSIBLE ACTION: Consideration of Conditional Use Permit
Request.
REFERENCES: Enclosed letter from Dr. Erickson (written
Sept. 1977).

Agenda Item 5. Public Hearings - Ordinance Amendment & Conditional
Use Permit - Mr. Marn Flicker.
Mr. Morn Flicker has requested the necessary permit to use
the existing storage buildings on the Fullerton Lumber site
for commercial storage.
Public Hearing - Ordinance Amendment.
In order to allow such a use, our ordinance will have to
be amended since there is no provision currently for com-
mercial (leased) storage within a B-4 zone. Our current
ordinance only allows storage that is accessory to the
principal use of a business on the same lot within a
B-4 commercial zone.
A similar request was made by Mel Worth at the November
1977 planning commission meeting relative to commercial
storage within a B-3 (Highway Business) zone. However,
the differences are that Mr. Worth was proposing a new
building and also the zone was highway business instead
of regional business.
Public Hearing - Conditional Use Permit - Commercial
Storage - Mr. Morn Flicker.
Mr. Morn Flicker has purchased the former Fullerton
Lumber site and is proposing to utilize a portion of the
existing storage buildings for his own business and
additionally he intends to lease out additional space
primarily to businesses in the downtown areas. Total
square footage of these buildings is over 7000 square
feet. 210o
The following is excerpted from ordinance section 10-22-1
relative to conditional use permits:
The Planning Commission shall consider possible adverse
effects of the proposed amendment or conditional use.
Its judgement shall be based upon (but not limited to)
the following fac torsi
1. Relationship to municipal comprehensive plan.
2. The geographical area involved.
3. Whether such use will tend to or actually
depreciate the area In which it is proposed.
4. The character of the surrounding area.
5. The demonstrated need for such use.
IZL
2-21-78
Mr. Flicker has indicated there would be a good possibility
that he will construct a building on the site later this
year for his own business. When this occurs, he has
indicated he will utilize the storage buildings as accessory
to his own building and therefore be in compliance with
our ordinance.
Planning Commission may want to consider the possibility
of a time limit as one of the conditions of the permit.
If approved, an agreement could be drawn up and a surety
bond provided. Mr. Flicker said he would consider a time
limit of possibly 5 years at which time the buildings
would have to comply with Monticello ordinances.
Enclosed, please find a letter from Dick Dwinnell re-
garding his concerns on Mel Worth's storage rental building
in a commercial zone and also a letter from adjacent
property owner Lee Hatfield. (In accordance with our
ordinances, hearing notices were sent to property owners
within 350 feet).
POSSIBLE ACTION: Consideration of:
1. Ordinance Amendment
2. Conditional Use Permit Request
—Agenda Item 6. Consideration of Buildine Permit - Rick Doerr and Dean
Hoglund.
Rick Doerr and Dean Hoglund are requesting a building
permit to construct a 42' x 300' storage building on the
north J of Lot 2, Block 1, Oakwood Industrial Park.
The 12,600 square foot building would be steel construction
consisting of fifty (50) individual garages for rental
storago. The site plan includes a layout for a second
building which would not be constructed at the present
time.
The building would be located just east of the roller
rink and would front on the road proposed for construction
In 1978.
This usage is allowed according to the ordinance in the
Oakwood Industrial Park as a permitted use. But since
this lot is being subdivided, the following requirements
are nceessaryt
1. Certificate of survey
2. Review by Planning Commission
3. Review and approval by council
-5-
2-21 -78
It appears that since the Oakwood Industrial Park has
already gone through subdivision requirements, the park
dedication requirement has merit for being waived in
this case.
The site plan and building plans are being reviewed by
Jay Miller, building inspector, who will be at Tuesday's
meeting.
Additionally, parking spaces for 50 cars will be provided,
one per garage stall.
POSSIBLE ACTION: Consideration of building permit approval.
REFERENCES: Copy of proposed site plan indicating building
layout.
