Florian Backowski Preliminary Plat Continued Public Hearing (Comm. #3-80-6)
Chairperson Bosell reopened the public hearing.
Larry Winner, City Engineer reviewed his letter regarding the revised plat. The only item
left open was to show the right-of-way width and surfacing of Dakota Street. The soil
borings have been received and are satisfactory. The grading plan is also satisfactory.
Chairperson Bosell noted that a letter indicating the County Highway Department's approval
must be obtained.
Florian Backowski - stated that he talked with Mr. Redepenning of the Highway Deparment and
Mr. Redepenning indicated that there would be no problem with the plat and that a letter to
the City was not necessary. Chairperson Bosell told Mr. Backowski that we must have a
letter from the County. She also noted that our ordinance states that no lots can front on
County roads. This will either have to be mentioned in the motion or a variance would be
required.
Commissioner Kishel stated that it's standard procedure for the county to request additional
easement along county roads. Usually they ask for 60 feet from the centerline plus a 15
foot utility easement. On 7th Avenue, the County has been requesting a 15 foot utility and
drainage easement.
It was mentioned that this property is part of a Registered Land Survey and Mr. Kishel was
Oasked why the county didn't take any easements at that time. Mr. Kishel noted that the
county cannot ask for a utility easement on a Registered Land Survey.
Commissioner Anstett stated that according to Ordinance 10, a variance would be required
for the lots fronting on county roads.

Commissioner Kishel asked if the elevations are adequate. Mr. Winner noted that some fill
will be required and that the three houses to be built will all be walkouts. Commissioner
Kishel questioned what the water table is. Mr. Winner stated that it varies, but the
average is about 860. According to the soil borings, Tract B showed no ground water at a
12~ foot depth and Tract C also showed no ground water at 12~ feet.
MOTION by Lobb, seconded by Johnson that the Andover Planning and Zoning Commission recommend
to the City Council approval of the preliminary plat of Florian Backowski on the property
described as: That part of the N~ of the SE~ of Section 18, Township 32, Range 24, Anoka
County, Minnesota, described as commencing at the Southwest corner of the NE~ of the SW~
of said Section 18; thence on an assumed bearing of East along the south line of said NE~
of the SW~ a distance of 278.27 feet; thence north 2 degrees 45 minutes West a distance of

feet; thence North 0 degrees 16 minutes 25 seconds East a distance of 75.24 feet; thence

of the land to be described; thence continuing south 79 degrees 00 minutes east a distance
of 114.62 feet; thence South 61 degrees 30 minutes East a distance of 150.48 feet; thence
South 35 degrees 00 minutes East a distance of 126.06 feet; thence South 46 degrees 30
minutes East a distance of 273.65 feet; thence North 34 degrees 10 minutes 30 seconds East
a distance of 686.76 feet; thence north 78 degrees 43 minutes 26 seconds west a distance

14 minutes 43 seconds West, along the East line of County State Aid Highway No. 7 a distance
of 362.28 feet to the actual point of beginning. Subject to easement for road purposes
on County Road No. 58., for the following reasons: 1) A public hearing was held. There
was no public opposition; 2) The plat meets the ordinances of the city and is in conformance
with the Comprehensive Plan; 3) The plat has been reviewed by the City Engineer and meets
with his approval; 4) The Commission has received a decision from the Park Board for cash
in lieu of land; 5) Approval of the plat is contingent upon the following being shown on
the plat: a) the width and type of surfacing of Dakota Street; b) a 60 foot right-of-way
plus a 15 foot drainage and utility easement on County Road 58; c) an additional 5 foot
utility and drainage easement on 7th Avenue; 6) A variance will be required for all three lots
fronting on County roads pursuant to Ordinance 10, Section 9.02, Subsection C. A hardship
was created as there are no other streets for the lots to front on.
Motion carried unanimously. This will go to the City Council on their first meeting in
November.
Rosella's Addition Preliminary Plat Continued Public Hearing (Comm. #6-80-5)
Chairperson Bosell reopened the public hearing. She noted that a revised letter has been
received from the City Engineer and a recommendation has been received from the Park Board.
Mr. Winner reviewed his letter regarding the revised plat. He noted that he has received
a final street and storm sewer plan.
Chairperson Bosell noted that a variance will be required as all of the owner's contiguous
/-ryroperty has not been platted. The reason for this being Ms. Sonsteby owns too much
~~roperty to plat. She also noted that the City Council requested that Lots 1 and 2 of Block
1 and Lot 1 of Block 2 be single family dwellings rather than doubles. This has been shown

,-=>on the plat.
It was noted that the following variances will be required: 1) Lots 8 and 9 of Block 1
are more than twice the average size lot; 2) Lot 13. Block 1 has a lot depth less than
the minimum requirement. It should be noted that lot depth cannot be increased; 3) All
of the owner's contiguous property has not been platted (Ordinance 10, 8.01 (G)). The
outstanding item would be favorable review from the County Highway Department.
Commissioner Lobb questioned the vacation of the easement on the plat. Chairperson Bosell
noted that according to the City Attorney, it can be vacated prior to final plat approval.
Commissioner Scherer asked what happens to the remainder of Lot 5 that was not included in
the park dedication. Chairperson Bosell stated that it would be added to Lot 6.
Ms. Sonsteby explained that there is a petition going around Auditor's Subdivision 82
requesting that the Park Board take the lots on Round Lake rather then the lots in the
plat for park dedication. Chairperson Bosell noted that if they did something that would
substantially change the plat. it would have to come back to the Planning Commission. On
two other occasions the City has taken park land outside of a plat.
Commissioner Scherer asked what the distance is between the plat and the lots on the lake.
Ms. Sonsteby stated that it's about 4 blocks. Commissioner Scherer explained that the
concern that was expressed before was to have something for the children who will be liVing
in the doubles. He doesn't think we should take the lots on the lake as park.
Commissioner Lobb noted that this is going to be a densely populated area and the park should
be within the plat. He doesn't feel the City should have to pay for park property (Ms.
Sonsteby would be giving the city one lake lot and asking them to purchase the other lot).
That would not be good planning for the city. He didn't think the Park Board should take
as much land as they are recommending. He felt that one of the lots would be sufficient
and that it should be a tot lot.
Commissioner Anstett noted that the Park Board felt that taking only a small lot would be
a waste of money. There was a lot of discussion at the Park Board meeting on whether this
would remain a tot lot or if it would grow.
Commissioner Scherer stated his reasons for not asking for the lake lots: if you're going
to serve younger children, to have a 4 block distance is not realistic; the danger of the
lake would also mean that youngsters cannot go to the park; it will be a source of trouble
in the future as it will attract people who do not live in the neighborhood who want to
use the access to the lake. He would rather have cash in lieu of land than this alternate
site.
Ms. Sonsteby stated that she talked to several people with small children and they would
prefer to have swingsets in their own yards than to have them go to a park. The people
in the area should have a say as to where they want the park.
Commissioner Johnson stated that taking four plus lots for park land is exceptional. Two
lots plus the balance in cash would make a good tot lot and that is what should be pursued.
He felt that a park is definitely needed in this area.
r'-Commissioner Kishel felt that the recommendation from the Park Board should be given some
~1eight, it should not be ignored.
MOTION by Lobb. seconded by Johnson to close the public hearing. Motion carried unanimously.
MOTION by Anstett, seconded by Johnson that the Andover Planning and Zoning Commission

r ,
',-/legally described as That part of the Southeast Quarter of the Southwest Quarter of Section
29, Township 32, Range 24, Anoka County, Minnesota lying easterly of the following described
line: Beginning at a point on the south line of said SE~ of the SW~ distant 1040 feet
westerly of the Southeast corner thereof; thence northerly, parallel with the east line of
said SE~ of the SW~, a distance of 1000 feet; thence northeasterly to a point on the west
line of the east 900 feet of said SE~ of the SW~, said point being distant 298 feet southerly
of the north line of said SE~ of the SW~; thence northerly parallel with the east line of said
SE~ of the SW~ a distance of 298 feet to the north line of said Southeast Quarter of the
Southwest quarter and said line there terminating. Except the following parcels, all in
Section 29, Township 32, Range 24, Anoka County, Minnesota: Parcel 6680, Parcel 6600,
Parcel 6650, Parcel 6700 and Parcel 7010., for the following reasons: 1) The City Engineer
has reviewed the plat; 2) A public hearing was held; there was no opposition; 3) The Park
Board has made a recommendation although the Commission expressed some concern about the
amount of property necessary and the location of the property for the park; 4) the following
variances will be required: a) Lot 13, Block 1 will require a variance because the lot
depth is less than the required minimum. A hardship is created because MS. Sonsteby doesn't
own the property to the south which would enable her to increase the lot depth; b) Lots 8
and 9 of Block 1 are more than twice the size of the average lot; c) all of the owner's
contiguous property is not being platted. Again, a hardship is created because Ms. Sonsteby
owns too much property to plat; 5) Approval of the plat is contingent upon the receipt of
a letter from the County Highway Department indicating their approval and also contingent
upon the vacation of an easement through Lots 2 and 3 of Block 2 and Lot 3 of Block 1;
6) This plat meets the basic intent and application of the ordinances of the City of Andover
and is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan; 7) The plat would not be detrimental to the
health, safety and welfare of the residents of the City of Andover.
Commissioner Johnson noted that the park definitely should be located within this plat.
The Park Board however should arrive at a compromise and not take so much land. Commissioner
Lobb concurred with Commissioner Johnson.
Vote on motion: Yes - Anstett, Scherer, Johnson, Bosell, Lobb; Present _ Kishel (voted
present as he is an employee of the County Highway Department and feels he would have
conflicting interest at the present time.)
This will go to the City Council the first meeting in November.

submitted to the City Engineer; the Park Board has recommended cash in lieu of land for
park dedication; a location map and the number of linear miles of roads have been added to
the plat; areas needing fill have been shown in a shaded manner.
Chairperson Bosell asked if the revised plat had been resubmitted to the County Highway
,--ryepartment. Mr. Ames stated that it has been submitted but they have received no answer as
,-Jet. He noted that the drainage and utility easements have been changed to 15 feet.
The following items were noted as requiring variances: Lot 1, Block 5 is less than the
required five acres; Lot 1, Block 1 is less than the required 2 acres for a Neighborhood
Business site. Also noted was that the ordinance states no lots can front on County Roads.
Therefore, Lot 1, Block 5 will have to front on Quay Street rather than County Road 116.

less than the required 5 acres for Shopping Center; c) Lot 1, Block 5 is less than 200 feet
wide. This would not be allowed to front on a County State Aid Highway.

Wm. C. Rademacher Special Use Permit Public Hearing (Comm. #9-80-1)
Chairperson Bosell opened the Public Hearing. She noted that the purpose of this Special
Use Permit is to install self-service gasoline pumps and for bulk storage of gasoline.
Larry Winner, City Engineer stated that he has reviewed this application and his only concern
on the site plan is the driveway off of l40th Lane. The entrance is shown as 90 feet, which
is not sound traffic engineering. He suggested that an island be installed so there would
be two separate driveway approaches 30 feet in width.
Chairperson Bosell asked if the storage tanks will be put in while the store is being built.
Wayne Anderson. WID. C. Rademacher and Associates stated they would be.
Chairperson Bosell questioned whether the number of parking spaces shown is adequate.
David Almgren. City Building Official stated that it exceeds the ordinance requirements.
Wayne Anderson - noted that they will be putting in an island for the driveway.

(Recess 9:13 - Reconvene 9:27)
North Suburban Praise Fellowship Church Special Use Permit Public Hearing (Comm. #9-80-2)
Chairperson Bosell opened the public hearing.
George Ridge, 3402 - 12th Avenue, Anoka - Stated that they are planning to buy the property
located at 14947 - 7th Avenue and begin building a church in the spring. They are checking
with the Fire Marshall about using the house on the property during the winter, but have not
received his report as yet. If they can't use the house as a church, they will rent it out
over the winter.
Chairperson Bosell noted that the property is zoned R-l and is within the Metropolitan
Urban Service Area. The lot area for non-residential use is 5 acres; however, the ordinance
allows for a church in a residential district by Special Use Permit.
Jerry Lapham, 14913 - 7th Avenue - Stated that he is opposed to a Special Use Permit in his
area regardless of who might be applying for it. If this Permit is granted, it will set a
precedent. Wants his area to remain residential. The traffic situation will be very
difficult because there is a hill to the north of that property and it will be hard to see
cars coming south. Asked why this group is trying to locate in this area when they were
going to buy a church building in Anoka.
George Ridge - noted that they were unable to obtain the property in Anoka because of
financing.
Mrs. Ralph Stephens, 15032 - 7th Avenue - has the same objections as Mr. Lapham and is very
concerned about the traffic.
Allan Miles, 14760 - 7th Avenue - is opposed to the issuance of this Special Use Permit.
Felt that the land size should be looked at for future expansion. Was also concerned about
the water flow as this property slopes toward Mr. Lapham's property. Chairperson Bosell
noted that they have to contain their storm water, it cannot flow onto Mr. Lapham's property.
Mrs. Lyle Bradley, 15202 - 7th Avenue - questioned if this permit would be for only one year
and if they have to indicate when they will be building. Chairperson Bosell explained that
it can be a conditional use permit with restrictions and time limits.
Jerry Lapham
the tax rolls.
- asked if the Special Use Permit is issued does the property get removed from
(Yes).
Dwight Denyes, 2056 - lllth Lane, Real Estate Agent - stated that he is the listing agent on
this property. Once the property is purchased by the church it will be taken off the tax
/,rolls. This would mean a loss of revenue to the city of $500.00 a year. The church he
~~ttends in Fridley is on less than three acres and has a seating capacity of 800 and has
plenty of parking space. As far as a church near a residential area, that's probably where
churches should be. Doesn't think that an entrance onto 7th Avenue would present any
problem.

Kishel noted
Lobb asked what the seating capacity will be. George Ridge stated it will be
Commissioner Lobb then asked what the size of the property is. Commissioner
that it is 2.3 acres.
Dwight Denyes stated that according to the County Surveyor the property is 2.8 acres.
Mr. Lapham noted that originally it was a 3 acre site.
MOTION by Scherer, seconded by Lobb to close the public hearing. Motion carried unanimously.
Commissioner Scherer stated that he would like to see a time limit placed on the Special
Use Permit. Also noted that according to the Supreme Court you cannot use loss of tax
revenue as a reason for denial.
David Almgren, Building Inspector - noted that on the half section map, it comes out to 2.2
acres with the right-of-way taken out.
Mrs. Bradley - asked if a church can buy a property like this, have it taken off the tax
rolls and then rent it out for a profit. Chairperson Bosell stated that churches do this
all the time.
Commissioner Kishel - has a problem with the size of the lot. Does not feel that it has
enough area to build a church on and still leave the house there.
Bob Peach, 15830 University Avenue Ext. - stated that if there is less than 2.5 acres, a
building permit could not be issued.
Chairperson Bosell noted that the property to the east is not developed and perhaps the
church could buy part of that and add it to this property to make the 2.5 acres.
Allan Miles - suggested that this item be tabled until they find out exactly how much
property there actually is.
Paul Cavner- stated that the owner of the property has to move soon and wants to sell this
property. The church would like to have a decision tonight.
MOTION by Johnson, seconded by Lobb to table this item until the Planning Commission's next
meeting. Motion carried on a 4 yes - 2 no (Bosell, Scherer) vote. This will be continued
to the next meeting.
At this time, a special meeting was scheduled for Tuesday, October 21, 1980 to deal with the
above item and also the Dog Bite Ordinance, Ordinance 8, Sections 7.01 and 3.02, the Multiple
Conversion Ordinance and the Rum River Scenic River Ordinance.
Kim Sai Sia House Moving Permit (Comm. #10-80-2)
Kim Sai Sia, 11518 Zea Street, Coon Rapids - stated that the house he wants to move to
.,'~dover has to be moved before October 16, 1980. A lot of improvements will be made to the
~~ouse.
Chairperson Bosell asked the BUilding Inspector if he has had any problems with other houses
that have been moved into the city. David Almgren. Building Inspector stated that they
never seem to get completed.

,"-,David Almgren noted that the site where Mr. Sia plans to move the house is in an R-2 zone
~and the minimum ground coverage would be 1200 square feet. Chairperson Bosell noted that
Ordinance 10C says that we don't have any more R-2 zones.
Barb Dehn, 17245 Navaio Street N.W. - stated that they were going to build a 964 square foot
home and were told they had to have 1200 square feet. All of the homes in that area had to
be at least 1200 square feet.
Mr. Almgren - told Mr. Sia that he would have to have soil borings taken and also a perc test.
Mr. Sia stated that if he has to have 1200 square feet, he will build the house so that it
does have 1200 square feet. He asked how he will find out exactly how many square feet he
needs. Commissioner Kishel stated that the Building Inspector will let him know.
MOTION by Kishel, seconded by Anstett that the Andover Planning and Zoning Commission
recommend to the City Council approval of the application by Kim Sai Sia for a permit to
relocate a l~ story stucco residence onto the property legally described as The South 330

Southwest corner of said NWt of the NWt; thence Northerly on the West line of said NWt of
the NWt to the NW corner of said NWt of the NWt; thence East on the North line of said

the west 33 feet thereof. Also subject to an easement of record to Northern States Power
Company., being a 10 acre tract of land located one mile south of the Rum River on 7th
Avenue in the City of Andover, for the following reasons: 1) The applicant has submitted
proposed draWings of the structure and additions which he proposes to complete in a timely
fashion and is prepared to meet all of the ordinances and requirements of the City of
Andover; 2) The proposed structure is consistent with the area and will not detract from
the health, safety and welfare of the general public.
Motion carried unanimously. This will go to the City Council the first week in November.
Discussion: Commissioner Johnson asked what guarantee we have that the structure will end
up looking like the plans. Chairperson Bosell stated that Mr. Sia has to submit these plans
to the Building Inspector and he has to meet the codes for new construction.
Multiple Conversion Ordinance (Comm. #8-80-12)
David Almgren, City Building Inspector, showed plans for new construction for a party wall.
The conversion of an old unit will have to have a two wall system and a surveyor will have
to establish a zero lot line. Also, the square footage of the lot will have to comply with
the ordinance requirements. They have to have a l~ hour fire wall.

PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MEETING
OCTOBER 14, 1980
AMENDMENT TO MINUTES
Rosella's Addition Preliminary Plat (Corom. #6-80-5)
Chairperson Bosell noted at the last City Council meeting the Mayor expressed concern over
having a road going to the west from this plat. She noted that on the future subdivision
plan, Woodbine Street is shown as being extended. There is also a ditch to the west and
it would be a little hard to put a road across the ditch.
Commissioner Lobb felt that the plat should be left the way it is.
Respectfully submitted,
u'u
Vicki Volk, Clerk
