Proposed Rezoning - Trueman L. Hulegaard (Comm. #2-76-1)
Trueman Hulegaard and Larry Seiberlic~ of Integrated Services, Inc.,
came forward with their plans. Mr. Seiberlich stated that a Feasibility
Study is being done by Integrated Services, Inc., and he is unofficially
presenting this proposal to get advice, recommendations, etc. from the
Planning and Zoning Commission before going ahead with the formal request.
for rezoning.
Mr. Seiberlich advised the Commission of the following: this would be
a Neighborhood Center with Specialty Shops, but primarily a grocery
store; the parcel of land to be zoned "NB" contains 3.5 acres and is
currently zoned R-l with adjacent land zoned R-3, R-4, and R-l; there
would be 15,100 square feet of store space, 14,650 square feet of gross
leasable area, and 3 sides of the building would have parking; 28,000
square feet of land on the NE corner of the project will remain unused
at this time; they plan to leave as many trees as possible; there is
another 3.22 acre parcel to the West that would be dedicated to the City
as park (currently a pond); it complies with Page 164 of the Comprehensive
Plan; land drops 9' to the lake; feels a facility such as this in the
area is needed.

Some of the items discussed were: buildability of the site; a portion
of the land is filled with cement blocks; County Road set-back and right-
of-way; Mr. Seiberlich stated the County will upgrade County Road 9 soon
and reduce the speed to 35 MPH; County usually requires 600' between
driveways; suggested exit on l44th Lane rather than County Road 9.

Also mentioned was the requirement that the sewer system has to be installed
in undisturbed soil. It was suggested to wait until Sanitary Sewer is
proposed because the cost of an on-site system would be very expensive.
This plan was presented 3 years ago by Mr. Hulegaard and not approved
at that time. It was noted that the Ordinances are still the same
although the area has changed somewhat in the last 3 years. The Commission
Clerk was directed to send the Minutes of the previous meeting in 1973
regarding this rezoning to the Commissioners and Mr. Seiberlich.
Hicklund 2nd Sketch Plan (Comm. #1-76-3)
Brad Wicklund presented a revised Sketch Plan to the Commission. He
has redrawn the Sketch to meet the requirements of the Andover Ordinances,
the Minnesota State Aid Highway, and the County. The lots are 4~ to 4~
acres in size. Existing buildings on the property will be removed.
This is a 70 acre plan with 12 lots. He showed the plan for the entire
farm which he hopes to present in 3 stages. After being asked about
park land, Mr. Hicklund replied he would be willing to dedicate land
o't money, whichever the City would like. It was suggested that the
proposed park land, which is just North of Faye Barnes house, be presented
as a portion of this plat and dedicated at this time for the entire
farm.
Mr. Hicklund was advised to go ahead with the Preliminary Plat.
JoAnn Chouinard - Special Use Permit - Kennel License Request (Comm. #2-76-2)
Mrs. JoAnn Chouinard explained to the Commission that she and a friend
would like to raise German Shepherd~ in the summer not in the winter;
house 5 dogs in the present 36 x 40 barn and put in 5 more runs on the
South side of the building. The Commission reviewed Ordinance 5.
Dave Szykulski, 752 - l40th Lane NW, asked why he was not notified~
The Commission told him of the Ordinance requirement of sending notices
to property owners within 350'. He stated that you can hear barking
dogs for a lot farther than 350' and objected to a Dog Kennel.
Doug Steele, 643 - l40th Lane NW, noted that he is one of the closest
neighbors, a kennel would be noisy, and feels the property is adversely
affected by a kennel, and if Chouinards sell, then future people would
be able to put in anything.
Art Fedie, 745 - l40th Lane NH, asked, "Hhat exactly is the purpose
of the kennel?" Mrs. Chouinard told him it would be a hobby. He stated
that he was against it.

Jim Nyman, 665 - l40th Lane NH, stated that there are already quite
a few dogs and he would be against any more dogs in the neighborhood.
Paul Olson, 14030 Prairie Road, said that he is against a dog kennel.
The Commission received a letter from Alan L. Chapman, 14212 Prairie
Road, in which he requested the dog kennel permit be rejected.
Mrs. Chouinard stated that she would prefer to drop the matter rather
than upset her neighbors. The Commission advised her to think it over
and be put on the next Planning and Zoning Agenda; also, to request
Pat Lindquist, Clerk, to write a letter to the Council requesting that
the unused portion, after legal costs, of her $100 be returned.
Motion by Commissioner Arnold, seconded by Commissioner Jaworski, that
the Public Hearing be closed. Motion carried unanimously. Motion
by Commissioner Johnson, seconded by Commissioner Jaworski, to carry
this item until the March 9th Meeting. Motion carried unanimously.
Street Opening Ordinance & Specifications (Comm. #1-76-6)
Rex Stockwell and the Commission discussed item #9 - cement slurry is
not the only material that could be used and there also other methods
of crossing the streets. Discussed some of the other methods of crossing
the street.
They discussed Section 2 B. regarding the size and weight of a machine
required to compact. It was decided to add "or other approved methods"
after "equipment,".
The Commission and Mr. Stockwell also discussed item #3 C - "Minnesota
Highway Department Specifications" and page 3 D (d) "There will be no
payment to the City for the above work.".
Motion by Commissioner Orttel, seconded by Commissioner Johnson, to
forward this to the Engineer for their revision and place it on the next
Agenda. Motion carried unanimously.
