Motion carried unanimously. Denise Nickel Special Use Permit Public Hearing (Comm. fi2~85~2) Denise Nickel, 3543 - 139th Avenue N.W. - noted that she is requesting a Special Use Permit to open a beauty shop in her home. Chairman Jacobson noted that a beauty shop is permitted in a residential district with a Special Use Permit. There are criteria that the city uses to grant Special Use Permits. A public hearing must be held also. At this time, Chairman Jacobson opened the public hearing. He noted that a letter has been received from the Rotar family of 3529 - 139th Avenue opposing the issuance of the Special Use Permit, noting the following concerns: 1) Increase in noise levels; 2) excess traffic; 3) parking feasibility. Commissioner Spotts asked if Ms. Nickel feels she has adequate parking. Ms. Nickel noted that she has space for two extra cars in her driveway. Commissioner Rogers asked if a beauty shop is going into the new shopping center. He was told that there will be a barber and beauty shop in the shopping center. Commissioner Bose11 noted that the ordinance requires that the applicant give to the city the hours of operation for the beauty shop. She asked Ms. Nickel what her hours would be. Ms. Nickel stated that she would like to be open from 8:00 in the morning until 9:00 at night Monday through Friday and from 8:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. on Saturdays. However, she would not be working constantly for all of those hours, but would take appointments between 8:00 and 9:00. Commissioner Bosell asked if Ms. Nickel had submitted plans to the state yet. Ms. Nickel stated that first she has to have the city's approval and then the State Board of Cosmetology has to approve it. Discussion with the Building Inspector centered on the drawing that was provided showing the proposed beauty shop. Dave Almgren noted that the drawing does not coincide with the building blueprints. It was discovered that a mistake was made on the drawing and it is the same as the house plans. Ms. Nickel also noted that she has a current manager's license to operate a beauty shop. Regular Planning Commission Meeting March 12, 1985 - Minutes Page 2 (D. Nickel Special Use Permit, Cont.) MOTION by Spotts, seconded by Bosell to close the public hearing. Motion carried unanimously. Commissioner Spotts asked if there are restrictive covenants covering Northglen. It was noted that there are none. Commissioner Rogers noted that he has some problem with having a beauty shop in that area as long as there is a beauty shop going into the shopping center. It was noted that there are approximately three other beauty shops in the immediate area. MOTION by Jovanovich, seconded by Rogers that the Andover Planning and Zoning Commission recommend to the City Council approval of a Special Use Permit requested by Denise Nickel to operate a beauty shop in her home at 3543-139th Avenue N.W. for the following reasons: 1) It is in conjunction with Ordinance 8Q; 2) The proposed use will not be detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of the community; 3) It will not cause serious traffic problems; 4) It will not seriously depreciate surrounding property values; 5) It is in harmony with the gneeral purpose and intent of the Zoning Ordinance and the Comprehensive Plan. A public hearing was held and there was no opposition. The Special Use Permit will be subject to an annual review. Approval is recommended upon the condition that the beauty shop will be open no earlier than 8:00 A.M. Monday through Saturday and will close no later than 9:00 P.M. Monday through Friday and no later than 5:00 P.M. on Saturdays. Motion carried unanimously. This will go to the City Council on April 2, 1985. Gordon Kohout Lot Split (Comm. #2-85-3) Gordon Kohout - stated that because of a health problem that his wife has, he would like to split his lot and build a new house. Commissioner Bosell asked if the property is zoned R-4 or if it is one of the properties rezoned to R-l. It was noted that this property is R-4. Chairman Jacobson didn't feel that the lot split complies with Ordinance 10C as it is not in a plat, but a lot split. Dave Almgren noted that Ordinance 40B covers this lot split. Chairman Jacobson felt that the lots should both be 2! acres because they are not served by sanitary sewer although they are in the Urban Service Area. Commissioner Bosell noted that when the city was rezoned in 1980, it was the intent of the city not to have any more 2! acre lots in the Urban Service Area. It was suggested that Mr. Kohout change the dimensions of the lots so that they have 165' of frontage. Mr. Kohout agreed to make the changes. Commissioner Spotts felt that what Mr. Kohout is proposing is logical. Don Emmerich, 2439 South Coon Creek Drive - stated that he is working with Mr. Kohout on this property and they have laid it out so it can be developed in the future when sanitary sewer becomes available. He should be able to get about 13 lots out of the property. Mr. Emmerich also stated that he has no objection to the lot split. MOTION by Bosell, seconded by Spotts that the Andover Planning and Zoning Commission recommend to the City Council approval of a lot split requested by Gordon Kohout for the property legally described as 'The West 495 feet of the East 825 feet of the North 660 feet of the Northeast Quarter of the Southeast Quarter of Section 28, Township 32, Range 24, Anoka County, Minnesota as measured along the north and east lines of said Northeast Regular Planning Commission Meeting March 12, 1985 - Minutes Page 3 (G. Kohout Lot Split, Cont.) Quarter of the Southeast Quarter. Subject to easement for county road.' for the purpose of splitting off from a large parcel a parcel that would be 165' x 260' in diameter, resulting in a lot that contains at least 39,000 square feet. The lot would then be compliant with Ordinance 40B and Ordinance lOCo There was public input at the meeting but there was no negative input in regard to this lot split. As a point of information, the applicant has looked at the potential to develop this in the future and aware of the requirements as set out in the ordinance as to lot width, etc. The parcel is zoned R-4 but because it is not served by sanitary sewer, it is required to have 39,000 square feet. This lot split may be subject to the park dedication fees and that should be determined by city staff. Vote on motion: Yes- Bosell, Jovanovich, Spotts, Rogers; No - Jacobson. Motion carried. This will go to the City Council on April 2, 1985. Shoreland Management Ordinance (Cemm. ,#2':'85-1) Chairman Jacobson noted that in looking at Ordinance 8, Section 4.33, he noticed that it is similar to the Shoreland Management Ordinance. In going through the draft ordinance, it was noted that there is a definition for "cluster <:fevelopment" but it is not mentioned anywhere else in the ordinance. "Crowding potential" jlso has a definition but is not mentioned in the ordinance. Commissioner Bosell felt that we should ask the DNR if they have excluded some of the water areas that were listed in Larry Seymour's letter of September 1983. Dave Almgren stated that a definition is needed for frontage. Chairman Jacobson noted that he will make the necessary changes in the ordinance and the secretary will send it to the DNR for their comments. It will also be on the next agenda. MOTION by Rogers, seconded by Jovanovich to adjourn. t10tion carried unanimously. Meeting adjourned at 10:10 P.M. Respectfully submitted, L'la Vicki Volk, Commission Secretary
