SPECIAL CONTINUED PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MEETING
September 14, 1978
MINUTES
Chairman Retzlaff called the Continued Andover Planning and Zoning
Commission Meeting to order at 7:30 P.M. on September 14, 1978 at
the Andover Community Center, 1685 Crosstown Boulevard NW, Anoka,
Minnesota.
Commissioners Present: d'Arcy Bosell, Don Jacobson and Jeannine Pyron
Commissioners Absent: Walter Dick and Ralph Kishel
International Tire Recycling Corp. Variance Request
(Comm. #9-78-2)
o
This item was continued from the September 11, 1978 meeting to get
further information on 2 proposed l-acre parcels adjoining the subject
property to the west. Chairman Retzlaff said that Mr. Heidelberger
has attempted to record those 2 parcels recently but the County Recorders
Office has not been willing to do so. Discussed possible alternatives:
having a 66' strip of land from Mr. Heidelbergers home site running
south across the east line of these 2 parcels; combining the 2 parcels
with the property owned by International Tire.
Mr. and Mrs. Rouse and Mark explained their intentions for the property.
They got involved with the tire accumulation and felt the timing was
right for recycling. The pyrolysis method where between 700 and 900
degrees the tires are reverted back to basic things: oil, char,
carbon black, activated charcoal, steel and natural gas. It is being
done in Germany and Japan. Shredded rubber is the most practical method
of recycling. They are going to build a metal pole building and have
a shredding machine which will cut the tires into little pieces. They
will be put in a truck and hauled away. It is a mechanical breaking
up of the rubber. Sometimes the machine will work outside and sometimes
inside. It would be an 8-hour work shift. There would be no problem
with meeting the noise standards and there will be no odors, fumes,
vapor gases or air polution. A processer in East St, Louis will get
the shredded rubber. He has a grinder which grinds them again into
50 crumb, 50 parcels per square inch, and take out all the fibers,
glass, etc. That size piece can be used in all sorts of rubber products.
They can go back into tires as well as other pressed rubber products.
If they use another method of disposing of the tires, they would apply
for another special use permit or amended special use permit. It would
probably take about 2~ or 3 years to get rid of the existing tire pile.

Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting
Minutes - September 14, 1978
Page 2
Discussed: recommending denial on this variance request as presented
and then between this meeting and the City Council meeting on October
3rd they could remedy the reasons for denial; they could compromise
with Mr. Heidelberger on the amount of land involved.
Motion by Commissioner Jacobson, seconded by Chairman Retzlaff, that
the Andover Planning and Zoning Commission recommend to the Andover
City Council the denial of the variance requested by International
Tire Recycling Corporation (for the variance on the property located
at: (legal attached)). The Planning and Zoning Commission recommends
denial for the following reason: that to grant the variance would create
several lots which are not to the standards of the community, per
Ordinance lOB section 7.01, and which would be illegal and would not
be able to be registered by the County. For that reason the Commission
finds that the variance request is unacceptable and would recommend
denial.

Discussion: Commissioner Jacobson had some intrepidation on going to
the City Council with some different boundaries and legal description
than the original application; Mark Rouse said that if they have another
month or so delay, they will have to cancel the project and the tires
will go back to Mr. Heidelberger; it would look better to have a recommendation
for approval than this denial. At the next Planning and Zoning Commission
Meeting (September 26th), the Commission could make an additional
recommendation. It was suggested that they 1) do a redivision of land
and 2) come back before the Planning Commission with a legal description
with the possibility of having an advisory type motion made to the City
Council that the new subdivision of land would be desirable or acceptable
from the Planning and Zoning Commission.
Motion carried unanimously. This will be on the City Council Agenda
on October 3, 1978.
International Tire Recycling Corporation Special Use Permit (Comm. #9-78-1)
The Commission reviewed Ordinance 8 Section 5.03. They have not filed
for a recycling (junkyard) license. The steel in the beads will be
piled up and they have markets for those in Canada and Mexico. Discussed
how to approve a Special Use Permit when the legal description is going
to be changed. Agreed to use the property address for location of the
Special Use Permit.

Motion by Commissioner Bosell, seconded by Commissioner Pyron, that
the Andover Planning and Zoning Commission recommend to the Andover
City Council approval of the International Tire Recycling Corporation
Special Use Permit under Ordinance 8 Section 5.03 from Ordinance 8
Section 7.03 (Special Uses (Zone - GB)) on the property at 2050~ Bunker
Lake Boulevard for the purpose of engaging in the business of shredding
and transporting tires for the following reasons: 1) the Special Use
applied for will not have an adverse effect upon the health, safety,
morals and general welfare of the occupants of the surrounding land.
2) the existing and anticipated traffic conditions have been reviewed
by the Planning and Zoning Commission and found to be in line with
the orderly planning and movement of traffic in the City. 3) the use
would not have an adverse effect on the values of the adjacent property
and scenic views in the surrounding area. 4) the proposed use would
not be adverse to the intent and spirit of the Comprehensive Development
Plan. 5) the use applied for could do nothing but improve the condition
of said property and the surrounding area and enhance possible use in
the future. 6) a public hearing was held and there was no opposition.

Discussion: what part of Comprehensive Development Plan; how does it
comply with the intent of the Comprehensive Plan; employment opportunities;
clean industrial use; traffic use in relation to the location.
Amendment by Chairman Retzlaff, seconded by Commissioner Pyron, that
the said Special Use Permit is in harmony with the adopted Comprehensive
Development Plan of the City of Andover in the following areas: 1)
under the "goals section" that this stated Special Use does not cause
adverse environmental effects upon the City of Andover. 2) under the
primary policy area that this industrial type location provides varied
employment opportunities within the City of Andover, reference 15
employee size. 3) under secondary policy that the industrial activity
would be located with regard to the type of transportation system required
such as Bunker Lake Boulevard, a major thoroughfare within the City
of Andover. 4) under the Comprehensive Development Plan, stated Special
Use Permit appears to be a clean activity which will not destroy the
environmental quality of the area.
Discussed industrial use versus general business use. Vote on amendment:
yes - Commissioner Pyron, Chairman Retzlaff; no - Commissioner Bosell,
Commissioner Jacobson. Amendment tied.
Vote on motion: carried unanimously. This will be on the City Council
Agenda on October 3, 1978.

These items are continued from the meeting of September 11, 1978.
It had been discovered that the reason for the iron monuments being
placed so far from the edge of the lake was so that they would be more
permanent and not be washed away or something with high lake level in
the future.
The Commission discussed Ordinance 40 Section VIII A. This will be
continued to the next meeting on September 26, 1978 in order to find
out from the Attorney if a variance would be allowed in this case.
