(" (" o ;:J o , \ "..) . , ',-.J () U t;ivw Tvwn~hip The regularly scheduled monthly meeting of the Grow Township Planning and Zoning Commission was held September 25, 1973 at the Crooked Lake school. Chairman Art Jaworski called the meeting to order at 7:30 PM with Commission members Johnson, Miles, Newell and Rither present. Minutes of the August 2$, 1973 meeting were approved as read. Chairman Jaworski called for a Public Hearing in the matter of application of Hays Quickstrom for a rezoning. Quick- strom not present. Chairman Jaworski called for a Public Hearing in the matter of application of Trueman Hulegaard to rezone the property as described on the attached Certificate of Survey, LeRoy H. Winner, Land Surveyor Job No. 66-4$ Dated August 1, 1966. Hulegaard stated that he was asking for the property to be rezoned to the Neighborhood Business District with the intended purpose of doing business as a dairy store, grocery store and . possibly a hardware store; the parcel contains approximately seven acres and the entire parcel would be rezoned, including the lake frontage on Round Lake; that no definite plans were developed for the lake frontage but that a playground or picnic area had been considered, that it would be for the use of the customers but not public in the sense that it would, at the present time, be intended for public dedication as a park. Glen Sipe, 14462 Round Lake Blvd asked what effect the proposal would have on the volume of traffic in the area noting that the traffic volume is already high and that a business would have a definite increase in that volume. Hulegaard stated that the traffic on the road is increasing by leaps and bounds the way it is and it will continue to increase without the store. John Lofstrom, 360$ 144th Ave NW noted that the land in the area is low and if it is built up with a building and parking lot where will the run off go? Hulegaard referred to the existing code which requires that any building must be at least 1$ inches above the road grade. Lofgren referred to the drainage problem just to the south on the west side of County 9 noting that the reason given for the drainage problem in there is the fact that Round Lake is higher in elevation than the surrounding land. Hulegaard agreed noting that with regard to his proposal, some special measures such as a seepage arrangement or holding pond would be necessary. Ken Posterick, 346$ South Coon Creek Drive W# noted that while he didn't have definite figures it is known that the intersection of South Coon Creek Drive and Round Lake Blvd is accident prone; that the reported vehicle count at that point is approximately 6,000 cars per day; that the sight lines along that particular section of the Blvd is poor; that any additional traffic at the intersection would jeopardize the safety of the children in the area. Hulegaard stated that the entry into the store would add only one access point to what already exists; that the kids will be there regardless; that under good conditions at 45 MPH it takes 100 feet or less to stop the vehicle and under wet or slippery conditions the distance is increased by one third that amount; that from 144th to the south is about 600 feet. '~) f' 1\ \,~ '0 f3rvw T vwn~hip Page 2 SEPTEMBER 25, 197: Alan Jontz, 345$ South Coon Creek Drive mv asked for a definition of the zoning classification and inquired as to how the proposal meets the comprehensive plan that the Commission is working on. Chairman explained the uses permitted in the NB District as listed in Ordinance #$, Section 7; noted that while the Township recognizes the need for planning, the policy statements and goals regarding development have not been fully developed and consequently would have no application in this case. Jontz asked how limited the zoning classification would be and what would happen to the excavating business. Commission reviewed permitted uses noting that the excavating business would remain as a non- conforming use in accordance with Ordinance #$, Section 4.03. Swan Westlund, 724 Polk St, Anoka, Minn. stated that while he was not a resident of the area, he owned property just south of the Hulegaard parcel and would see the store as an improvement to the areas as long as no liquor is brought in. Dick Martin, 3552 141st Lane WN, discussed the present road right of way noting that the county has indicated plans to increase the width from 66 feet to 120 feet; that when they built on 141st adjacent to Round Lake Blvd, their surveyor told them to build well off Round Lake Blvd. Commission discussed the relatively poor access to the parcel, noting that all traffic would be into one point resulting in congested traffic flow with respect to Round Lake Blvd. Doris Lofstrom, 360$ 144th Ave WN stated that it is a residential area; that it is the wrong place for a business; they would be able to look right into a parking lot from their living room; there are lots of trees there. Hulegaard stated that the trees would remain, that a park would possibly be developed there. Newell discussed the provisions of Anoka County Ordinance No. 72-1, Shoreland Zoning Ordinance noting that Round Lake is classified as a Recreational Development lake and that the proposed use is not a permitted use as listed in Section 2.3, paragraph 2.32 but would be governed under the Conditional uses as listed in Section 2.33 (f); that where the Township ordinance is in conflict with another ordinance the more restrictive would apply [Ordinance #$, Section 4.01BJ. Miles noted Section 4.3, Shoreland Alterations of Anoka County Ordinance 72-1. In response to questioning by Johnson, Hulegaard stated that some of the land would have to be filled in. Glen Sipe, 14462 Round Lake Blvd expressed concern with the increase in traffic and placement of any proposed stop sign in the intersection. Mrs. Glen Sipe, 14462 Round Lake Blvd, stated that the store and playground would attract children and asked if the area would be fenced; expressed concern with safety of children. Hulegaard stated that fencing would be put in; that good shore is low, water table is low, it would require a tremendous amount of fill and that most of it is waste if some- thing isn't done with it. Rither noted that all land is useful, the determination must be made what constitutes the best use based on its topography, location and other physical limitations; that due to the points brought out during the discussion, the proposed use didn't appear to be the best use for the parcel. Newell reviewed Ordinance #$, Section 2 - Intent and Purpose. \ ~ o , '\ 'J o C) t-fvw Tvwn~hip CJage 3 SEPTErIDER 25, 1973 It was moved by Newell and seconded by Miles that the Grow Town- ship Planning and Zoning Commission recommend to the Grow Town- ship Board of Supervisors that the request for Rezoning submitted by Trueman Hulegaard be disapproved for the reason that the additonal traffic caused by this business would be detrimental to the health and safety of the adjacent residents and other users of Anoka County Road #9. Motion carried unanimously. Chairman Jaworski called for a Public Hearing on the matter of Hayes O. Quickstrom to rezone the Lots 1;2;19;20 of Block 1, Quickstrom Addition from the R-1 District to the NB (Neighborhood Business) District. In response to questioning by the Commission, Quickstrom stated that the parcel is about 360x230 (Dimensions as shown on the application are 341.61 feet along Round Lake Blvd; 204.70 feet along 142nd Ave rnq; assumed dimension of 341.61 feet along the easterly lines of lots 2 and 19; and 214.49 along 141st Ave mv.); a service road would be constructed parallel to County Road #9; a six foot cyclone fence would be constructed between neighbors and building; parking area of 100x200 would be blacktopped; proposed building would be 40x$0 for a total floor area of 3200 square feet; one story building, cement block construction with a mansard front similar to the building on l$lst Ave ffiv in Oak Grove Township. Dick Martin, 3552 141st Lane ffiv, stated that he lived across the street from the property and that the, same considerations for traffic volume, congestion, safety of children would apply in this rezoning situation. Herbert Hess, 3532 142nd Ave Mv, expressed concern over the possible drainage problem that would result noting that the area has problems with'drainage the way things are now; that last spring the water was ponding in the street and the traffic flow through the area had shifted up into the front lawn in order to get around the ponding area; that the Township finally closed off the road. Rither confirmed this to be the case noting that it was he who, as a Supervisor at that time, had ordered the barricade put in place, in response to a request from the residents on the street. Rither stated that there is no doubt that such a business service is needed in the area but that against the considerations of traffic on County Road 9 and the limited access, it would appear to be a poor location for such a use; that the Comprehensive Plan for the South Area indicates that the intersection of County 9 and Bunker Lake Blvd is the optimum location for such a service; that the proposed Comprehensive Plan supports that location. In response to questioning by Johnson, Hess stated that he would not be in favor of having a dairy store at the location . as proposed by Quickstrom. Miles noted that Ordinance #$, Section 6.02, Minimum Requirements, requires a minimum lot area of two acres for the Neighborhood Business Zoning District Classification; according to his calculations, two acres would require a minimum of $7,120 square feet of lot area; the proposed site contains about 71,000 square feet, less than the requirement. It was moved by tliles and seconded by Johnson, that the Planning and Zoning Commission recommend to the Grow Township Board of Supervisors that the request of Hayes O. Quickstrom to rezone Lots 1;2;19; and 20 of Block 1, Quickstrom Addition from R-1 to NB be disapproved in as much as the lot size is under the requirements of Ordinance #8, Section 6.02; ad~erse effe~t on traffic conditions on County Road #9 and abutt~ng Townsh~p streets not in accordance with Ordinance #$, Section 2. r-' ;. ) (3-rvw 1',,\ _ ,\J T vwn~hlpPage 4 September 25, 1973 i~) Motion carried unanimously. Harold Wilber appeared before the Commission regarding an application for a Special Use Permit to park a mobile home trailer on Lot 2, Watts Garden Acres. In response to questioning by Johnson, Wilber stated that the trailer is to be used as an office for his fence business and the wrecking yard; that right now he is using his house and when the men come in for their checks the grease and dirt gets tracked allover the floor; the fence business has been there for about ten years; a septic system is on the land nearby; mayor may not use the tank for the trailer. Commission discussed definitions of mobile home and dwelling unit, noting that dwelling units are not permitted in the GB District; that the permit application is made because it represents a modification of an existing non-conforming use; that Ordinance #6 Section 2 prohibits the parking of mobi1ehomes within the township except in approved mobile home parks or on a temporary permit as provided therefore. Miles stated that it was not clear how the special use permit could be sustained under Section 2 of Ordinance $0, nor how the "structure" could be considered anything but a mobile home in view of the furnishings in the trailer. Wilber stated that he did not wish to alter the inside of the trailer, that it could or would be used as a lake cabin later on; that if one goes, they all should go throughout the township. It was moved by Johnson, seconded by .Newell to recommend to the Grow Township Board of Supervisors that the application of Harold Wilber for a Special Use Permit to park a mobile home on Lot 2 Watts Garden Acres be disapproved due to the provisions of Section 2, Ordinance 6 which states that mobile homes shall be located within a mobile home park. Motion carried unanimously. Bruce Hay appeared before the Commission regarding the development of a mobile home park. Hay stated that he had had lunch with the Township Engineer and learned that it would be at least three years before sanitary sewer would be available at the proposed park site; that he was trying to get a variance from the ordinance to get a partial, 100 unit, construction of the park started; the State Department of Public Health has jurisdiction over underground systems and has power to o.k. - up to 100 units - if they have tests that prove that it can be done successfully; the Pollution Control Agency has jurisdiction over the surface; the proposed construction would cover the next year or two - 50 to 100 units - and designed so that it would be easy to hook into sanitary sewer at a later date. In addition, Hay stated that it is costing him money to hold on to the property and if partially operative it would be advantageous; not asking to endanger the health, safety, or welfare of anyone; asking if the Planning and Zoning Commission would give its approval to the proposal so that they could approach the State Department of Public Health and ask if it is healthy and feasible to develop on the site with an underground percolation system. In conclusion, Hay stated that they would put in a tank and drain field to serve all 100 units and when the trunk came, the tank and drain field would be removed; sewer is just over the horizon and you can make interim provisions. , '\ ,~ o '\ 'J ( ) C) f7rvw T vwn~hipPage 5 September 25,1973 During the discussion, Rither noted Ordinance 6, Section 5 (x) which states, "AII mobile home parks must be serviced by a municipal sewer system. No permits will be issued until municipal sewage service is available." Hay noted that the township permits individual sewage systems with tanks and drain fields. Rither agreed, noting that the township is also discovering that these systems are failing and that the present method of disposal is not a good one, that sanitary sewer is the only way to service the disposal of waste. Miles noted that the Metro- politan Sewer Board has jurisdiction in the seven county area; that we are supporting the philosophy that no in ground affluent should be allowed. Newell noted that a variance is a request to do something that should not be done; referred to the sanitary sewer feasibility study and the suggested approaches to sewering the township. Johnson stated that he saw nothing which would provide for a variance from the ordinance. Miles noted that the only variance provision is located in Ordinance #$. Hay stated that there must be some provision for a variance. Johnson stated that the Town Board and the Commission has been working on a Comprehensive Plan and it is felt that utilities, roads, and the like should move with the development, it should be integral; development will be better; we must try to control the development so that services are expanded and extended together. Hay stated that variances have degrees and asked how much closer must he be to Anoka, which has sewer. Rither stated that the ordinance says you must have sewer; it is not a question of almost having it. Johnson stated that sewer, streets should all go in at the same time and then the park shall develop. Rither asked if possibly the Commission was getting into the position whereby the Township would be played off against the State Health Department and maybe even the other way around. Miles stated that we are opposed to a system which puts effluent into the ground versus a tank which is used as a holding tank. Newell reviewed meeting with township counsel and the advice to read the law literally. In addition, Newell stated that we have not concluded the planning of the township; we have an imminent sewer problem as supported by the Building Inspection Department data and that no definite decision on sanitary sewer service has been made. Hay stated that he did not want to develop the entire park, only to see if it was possible to proceed as proposed; will you let me do it; will you let me do it, as a favor we could stipulate that a set amount of 50 units a year would be developed, even when sewer is here. It was moved by Johnson, seconded by Newell that the Commission cease discussion in so far as (1) No formal variance application is before the Commission, and (2) If a variance is wanted then the proper procedures should be followed. Motion carried unanimously. Hay asked as to how the Commission felt regarding the matter and could the Commission indicate how it felt. Chairman Jaworski stated that it was impossible to give an answer in the absence of a formal application for a variance. It was moved by Rither, seconded by Newell, to adjourn. Meeting was adjourned at 10:30 PM. ~~ Skip Ritner, Clerk, Planning and Zoning Commission , \ '-~ ,~) 'j--,' u~ :',;;) "uIJuf1 ~~ f'\~?'."4. ~..:-,.:"'__=-~_ -::;~o"~ ~~~c_\;,..:.: :EJ '.:.!:. /i :';- ,t, ......~;l-,~;--;-::t~.:,/',~._~--......... - - .:- "::;-- -= -= ~.,J'::: ~~l:J,"r ._.

A Public Hearing was held September 25, 1973 regarding the application of Trueman Hulegaard to rezone the property as described on the attached Certificate of Survey from the R-1 Zoning District to the NB Neighborhood Business District. 2. Applicant stated that the intended use is general business purposes, i.e., dairy or grocery store and possibly a hardware store, and that the parcel to be rezoned contains approximately seven acres. 3. Commission noted the existing drainage problems in the Round Lake area, particularly that the elevation of the lake is higher than the surrounding land and that the site would require filling in order to maintain the proper elevation as required by Ordinance #17. 4. Commission notes that the present right of way / '\ on Round Lake Blvd, also known as Anoka County Highway #9, is ~ 66 feet and that the Anoka County Highway Department proposes to increase that right of way width to 120 feet; that said road is a major north - south thoroughfare carrying a high volume of traffic and that the proposed rezoning and subsequent business development will tend to increase that volume. 5. Commission notes that with but one exception, all property owners appearing at the Hearing voiced opposition to the proposal citing the existing traffic conditions on Round Lake Blvd, its intersection with South Coon Creek Drive, and the increased congestion resulting from the traffic going into the business. In addition, testimony was heard regarding the fact that the aforementioned intersection is accident prone due to the poor sight lines. Commission. notes that many of those appearing expressed concern for the safety and welfare of pedestrians, particularly children, who would be attracted to the business. 6. Commission discussed the provisions of Anoka County Ordinance 72-1, Shoreland Zoning noting Sections 2.3 which classifies Round Lake as a Recreational Development lake and would permit the proposed use only as a conditional use and not a permitted use and Section 4.3 which addresses the matter of shoreland alterations. (j n 0 6'rvw Tvwn~hip .~ Page 2 October 6, Rezoning - 1973 Hulegaard 7. Commission notes that access to the site is from either Round Lake Blvd. or South Coon Creek Drive which is considered, in terms of efficient traffic flow, restrictive. It was moved by Newell, seconded by Miles, that the Grow Township Planning and Zoning Commission recommend to the Grow Township Board of Supervisors that the request for Rezoning submitted by Trueman Hu1egaard be disapproved for the reason that the additional traffic caused by this business would be detrimental to the health and safety of the adjacent residents and other users of Anoka County Road #9.
