Ms. Mary Martin, 133 Stonybrook Way, appeared before the Council regarding
public hearing notification. She stated the reason she is bringing this
to the Council's attentior_ is because when East River Road intervens, it
takes up a lot of footage, therefore, not many people in her area were
notified af a public hearing.
Mayor Nee asked if streets were figured in the distances for purposes of
public hearing notifications. Mr. Flora stated the footage of the streets
is not taken into consideration.

Council� Fitzpatrick stated sometimes 500 feet from a certain point
involves a lot of people, howevex, in the case which Ms. Maxtin is
referrYng, if you take into consideration the width of East River Road in
figuring the 500 feet, not too many people are involved in the
notification.
Mayor Nee requested a report from the staff an what might be done in these
particular cases.

MOTION by Councilman Schneider to waive the reading of the public hearin9
notice and open the public hearing. Seconded by Councilman Barn�tte. Upon
a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried
unanimous7y and the public hearing opened at 7:45 p.m.
Mr, Flora stated the property involved in this rezomng request is in the
northeast corner of Highway 65 and Mississippi Street. He stated it is
proposed to rezone this area from R-1 to R-3 for a condominium
development.
Mr. Flora stated the rezoning was presented to the Planning Coirntussion and
there was a considerable amount of negative comment received fron
residents in the area, and the Commission recommended denial of the
rezoning request.
Councilman Schneider asked what is the total area of the proposed
rezoning, or how many szngle family homes could be located on this
property. Mr. Flora stated there is space for three sinqle family homes
to be constructed on the property.
� Mr, Mark Haggerty, attorney representing the developer, Mr, Erickson,
stated there were a number of letters and items presented at the Planning
Coirnnission meetYng which he did not attend, and in reviewing the minutes
of the Conunission he noted a few items. Mr. Haggerty stated in regard to
the traffic congestion, it was requested an investiqation be made on what
the County may do at this intersection.
�,
u
Mr. Floxa, Public Works Director, stated the County does have plans to
improve the intersection of Mississippi Street and Highway 65 by adding
the right turn lanes on Mississippi Street,
Mr. Haggerty stated there have been many requests in the g3st for proposed
uses of this property, He further stated the staff recommendation
regarding the traffic and access was in contradiciton to what the
neighborhood wanted and the access proposed to Mzssissippi Street was to
satisfy the residents in the area. He explained the configuration oE the
buildings could be changed so there would be less traffic on Lucia Lane.
Mr. Haggerty asked aYxaut the adequacy of the sewer line. Mr. Flora stated
there is adequate capacity and this development would probably actually
help the sewer line.
�I �} �
�� �l '� � � 1�_ �i
Mr. Haggerty stated in condominium development, there is a homeowner's
association and that FHA and VA have very stringent requirements which
must be met.
Mr. Haggerty stated it is proposed that although this area is zoned sinqle
family, it doesn't lend itseif to single family development and that it be
allowed to develop into quasi-single family in order to meet the needs for
some lower income housing in the City.
Councilman Schneider stated he felt * one of the key points was the
density which was not discussed by Mr. Haggerty.
Mr. Haggerty stated they have 14 units and believed there is a total of �
58,000 square feet gross area and this comes within the density
requirements of duplex housing in the City.
Mr. Haggerty stated they want to be sensitive to the needs of the
residents of the * area and try to accomodate their concerns, as well as
the staff's concerns regarding traffic, and to have input from the
Council. He requestea, therefore, for this heari.ng to be continued to the
next meeting to give his client an opportunity to talk to the neighborhood
residents and try to come up with a reasonable solution for development of
this property,
Councilman Schneider stated, prior to the public hearing before the
Plantu.ng Coimnisison, he had told Mr. Erickson this was one of the most
creative developments * he had seen for this �rcel, but had recommended *
Mr, Erickson meet with the residents of the area before this item went to
the Planning Commission.
Councilman Schneider stated he had also told Mr. Erickson he would not
approve the developments at the present density.
Mr. Haggerty stated Mr. Johnson, the owner of the property, has talked to
the residents, however, because of the configurations of the property,
rezoning proposals have been denied. He stated the reason he is asking
for a continuance is to get input from other Council members and then go
to the residents and try to come up with a package that would be aqreeable �
to.
Mr. Russell Burris, 1150 Mississippi Street, submitted a written proposal
c7ated June 10, 1983 on what the residents would like for this area. This
was read in full by Mayor I3ee and stated the homeowners in the area want
the property to be built as R-1 or single family homes as the property was
purchased as R-1 property and should be developed accordingly.
Mr. Clarence Timo, 6517 Lucia Lane, stated he presented a list of
ob�ections to the Plamm�g Co�mussion. Mayor Nee stated the Council has
the coimnents submitted to the Planning Co�ussion which was made a part of
their proceedings.
Mr. Timo stated he would agree with Mr. Burris' co�nents that the property
was zoned R-1; the buyer bought it as R-1; and it should be developed as
R-1. He stated, in urban planning, property should be developed in
accordance with the surrounding neighborhood and this spot rezoning isn't
com�tible with the R-1 zoning in their area.
*Corrections made at the Council meeting of July 25, 1983.

C0INCIL MEETING OF �ULY 11. 1983 �AGE 4
Mr. Timo asked the Council to consider his comments submitted at the
Planmng Conunission meeting and deny this rezoning request.
Mrs. Bystram, 6533 Lucia Lane, stated ae sk�e looks at this situation
indeed something will be done on this property in the iuture. She stated
she is certainly willing to talk and felt something should be done in
terms of what is reasonable as far as traffxc.
Mr. Bystram, 6533 Lucia Lane, stated he wasn`t involved in the discussion
at the Planning Com¢nission meeting for this rezomng, but was present at a
� hearing several years ago. He stated, as a person who has no experience
in developmental activity, he would be at a distinct disadvantage if he
was involved in a discussion without the kind of resource they need for a
qualified 7udgment. He felt if he had trust in the people involved in the
negotiations, he could benefit from discussians and there probably should
be some staff input. Mr. Bystram felt the intersection at Mississippi and
Lucia Lane is a problem, particularly in the winter because of the slight
incline.
Mayor Nee stated the problem involving staft- in such discussions is that
it may pre�udice their objectivity.
Mr. Haggerty stated they are to the point now where you are as close as
you can get to single family residential usage. He stated both Mr.
Johnson and Mr. Erickson want to work with the neighbors and be honest
about what they are trying to do and to also accommodate the
recommendations of the staff and construct a nice development that will
work with the neighborhood. He stated he would act as an arbitrator in
trying to work out something that is mutually acceptable.
Councilman Schneider stated HIS. Schnabel at the Planning Commission
meeting had asked Mr, Erickson if he would consider reducing the number of
units and he indicated he would not. He further stated, although the
traffic and sewer capacity have to be conszdered, he felt two crucial
issues were the quality of the housing and the density,
� Mr. Haqgerty stated he felt anything �s possible, however, whether it is
probable or not, they would have to look into this further. He stated
they are willing to be flexible or else he woudn`t be here, but, on the
other hand, there are some elements in the neighborhood that are
inflexible and hopes to bridge this gap of inflexibility.
Mr. Burris stated it is not feasible to put 14 um ts on this site. He
stated he now has to back into his driveway in order to be able to get out
on the street. Mr. Burris felt it would be tragic to have the access
directly on to Mississippi Street and that three or four homes are the
maximum that could 6e built on this site.
Mr. Burris stated the developer knows what the residents want for hls
property and yet they are still trying to force this proposal.
Councilman Schneider explained, under the normal rules of procedure, the
Council wouldn't take action on this rezoning this evening as it is
customary to hold the public hearing and take action at the next Council
meeting.

J iL' �
[��"Ifari • 1J
Mr. David Dayton, 6435 Highway 65, stated if he rezoning was approved, the
could co� in with any project they wanted and this xs the reason they
want it to remain as R-1.
Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, felt there are some steps which can be taken
to protect the residents to assure a certain development wou.Zd be
constructed.
Mayor Nee pointed out that what the Council is now considering is the
rezoning issue, and not approval of the proposed pro�ect.
Mrs. Haedtke, 6540 Lucia Lane, felt 14 units was too many for this �
property and didn't feel the additional traffic could be handled.
Councilman Barnette stated he kno�vs everyone's feelings, but the biggest
problem with this property for R-1 development is the location as he
didn't feel sorneone would buxld a$100,000 home on this corner.
Councilman Fitzpatrick stated the consideration is if the property should
be R-1 or P.-3 and how this fits into the total development picture.
Councilman i�amernik stated he felt the density is a primary concern, but
felt any dialogue between the developer and residents would have some
value. He felt those lots today are not ideal single family sites.
Councilman Schneider stated the density is the key issue in his mind and
it would be his intentian, if an agre�nent is reached with the residents,
the rezoning would be granted for a specific pro�ect.
MOTION by Councilman Schneider to continue this public hearing to the next
Council meeting on July 25, 1983. Seconded by Councilman Barnette.
Mayor Pdee stated he didn't think a case has been made to rezone property
beyond the client's interest, He felt is hasn't been shown that it is in
the best of interests of the neighborhood and community.

is made by the two property oamers on either side.
Mr. Flora stated one of the property avners wishes to construct a driveway
and garage on the vacated portion of 54th Avenue, which is also the
easement required by the City. Nir. Flora stated, if the vacation is
approved, they may wish to stipulate that any construction on the city
easement would have to be maintained by the property owner in the event
the City had to make any repairs or improvements to the utility line.

Mr. Flora stated the Planning Commission recommended approval of the
vacation, with the City retaimng an access easement over the top of the
existing 30 feet utility easement.
Ms. Laura Vagovich, 5400 4th Street, explained skie has maintained this
portion of the street for 34 years and would like the protection of not
having people going through there. She stated she assumed for years that
this road was already vacated and therefore, had maintained it.
Mr. Zirmnexman, 5380 4th Street, stated he intended to put up a retaining
� wall and use the 30 feet vacated to build a road to a garage he plans to
construct on his property, with access of£ 4th Street.
Mr. Zinmierman stated he understands there is a storm sewer easement that
will renain, but there is no way to get around this issue.
Mr. Flora identified the three options the Council could consider in
providing for development of an alley without 4th Street if this vacation
request is allowed.

a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried
uik,�nimously and the public heaing opened at 9:12 p. m.
Mr, Bill Hunt, Staff Liason to Charter Commission, stated there are two
basic changes in Sections 6.01, 6.02 and 6.04 of the Charter. He stated
Section 6.01 eluninates all the procedural matters �.nvolved in the firing �
of the City Manager. He stated it simply says the City Manager is
removable at any regularly scheduled meting provided that at least three
me�nbers of the Council vote for the removal. He further stated all other
matters including giving the City Manager a chance for a public hearing is
removed in the C1larter.
Mr. Eunt stated Section 6.02 grants to the City Manager the right to
appoint, suspend and remove any subordinate officer or employee, except as
othenaise provided in the Charter, and eliminates the phrase with the
consent and approval of the City Council.
Mr. Hunt stated Section 6.04 states the City Clerk, City Treasurer, City
Attorney and such other officers subordinate to the City Manager, as the
Council may provide for by ordinances shall 6e appointed by the City
Manager with approval of the Council.
Mr. Starwalt stated these sections are touchy items and have many aspects
and these have been before the Charter Commisison for at least two years.
He stated all the Council members had input, including the City Manager,
and while the Charter Commission members had differences of opinion, he
felt these amenc�nents, as presente8, did the best 7ob for the City.
Councilman Schneider asked if Sections 6.01, 6.02 and 6.04 were presented
as a�ckage or could be taken separately.
Mr. Hunt stated, it was his understanding, the Commission presented them �
as a �ckage.
Councilman Schneider asked if Section 6.02 was consistent with other
charters in the City Manager form of govermnent. Mr. Staxwalt stated from
his recollection, it is the best method of good government in this day and
age.
Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, stated Section 6.02 (b) says the City Manager
has the right to apFoint, suspend and remove any subordinance officer or
employee except as othexwise provided in his charter. He stated there are
certain people protected by civil service or veterans rights and it may be
a good idea to say, "except as provided in this charter or other
applicable ordinances or statutes,"
Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated there are a number of State laws that
supersede the Charter. Mayor Nee felt the Charter acknowledges this in
other areas.
�
�•..�,;�� �. . �,_ _ ���r: 3

Mayor Dlee stated this item regarding a variance request by Glenn Van
Hulzen is now back before the Council, after being referred to the Appeals
Commission for clarification of the definition of living s�ce.
Mr. Flora, Pulic Works Director, stated the Appeals Commission has
concurred with the staff's definition and clarified this area as living
sg�ce.
Mr, Flora stated Mrs, Doyle, who had objected to the variance, was present
at the Appeals Commission meeting and stated she had talked further with
the Van Hulzen's and is more comfortable with the beauty shop with the
condition the variance be granted only to the Van Hulzen's and for a
period of one year and to be reviewed annually.
Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated the Appeals Commission is recommending
this space be allowed for a beauty shop, which is a home occupation, and
this can be conducted only in living spaces. He stated he felt the
compromise is a good solution, as it allaws the use requested by the home
owner, and gives some satisfaction to th ad7oining property awners so they
would have a voice in any future requests should the property change
hands.
Councilman Hamermk stated he had conversations with both the petitioner
and Mrs. Doyle and hey both agree this is an acceptable solution and staff
feels this can be handled.
NYYi'ION by Councilman Hamernik to concur with the recommendation of the
Appeals Conunission to grant the variance request to reduce the �ide yard
setback on the living space of a house fromthe required 10 feet to 5 feet
to allaa a converted garage to be used for a beauty shop at 901 Overton
Drive, with the stipulation that this variance be restricted to the use of
the Van Hulzen's only and is granted for a period of one year and
concurent with renewal of the beauty shop license, the petitioner would
provide the Council with a request for continuation of tis variance at
which t,ime the Council can review any concerns that may have arisen in
that period and may elect to discuss it with the petitioner. Seconded by
Councilman Fitzpatrick. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee
declared the motion carried unanimously.

was concerned if all three of these proposed amendments could be taken
separately.
Mr. Bill Hunt stated he felt the Charter Commission saw this as a package

if the Council wishes, he can get an opinion from the Charter Commission,
but felt they saw these as a p�ckage item.

Mr. Flora, Public Works Director, stated the Council approved a special
use permit, #77-04 in 1977 for Apache Camping Center which allowed the
sales and service of recreational vehicles and a limited outdoor display
of two units.
Mr. Flora stated, in con�unction with the special use permit, there were a
number of stipulations and, essentially, four of these have not been
complied with and the City has attempted to obtain compliance for a number
of years.
Mr. Flora stated the request now before the Council is for an addition to
the original special use permit in order to alow for the display of six
units, and the Planning Conunission has recommended denial of this request.

Mr. Flora, Public Works Director, stated this property is located in the
floocl plain and, therefore, requires a special use permit. Mr. Flora �
stated there were a nimiber of items discussed at the Planning Commission
pertaining to the drainage and construction of the building.
Mr. Flora stated the structure would be surrounded by a built-up berm so
if there is a f-lood, it doesn't affect the structure.
Mr. Flora stated the question cai� up about the drainage to the south and
east of the property. He stated the developer plans to drain the lot to
the front and follaa the natural drainage to the north where it will enter
into the storm system.
Mr. Flora stated the Planning Commission recommended approval of the
special use permit with the stipulations that a workable drainage plan be
approved and retaining walls be part of the drainage plan, provided they
are required for drainage.
Mr. Flora stated he felt it is possible to adequately drain the property
and build the structure, as proposed.
Mr. Schack, 685 Glencoe, stated he didn't feel the retaining wall would
help and snow melting from the winter would drain on his property.
Mr, Smith, 8141 R�.verview Terrace, felt the home would be a good addition
to the area, but was concerned about water draining through this front
yard. �
Mr. Flora stated he met with Mr. Schack and while they don't have the
drainage plan available today, it is possible to move the drainage through
a swale to the curb and into the drainage system. He said all that is
being changed now is p�rt of the lot is being built-up so the house can be
constructed above the flood level.
Mr. Flora stated staff reviews all plans and in this parta.cular case, they
would insure the water continues to move in its present fashion,
Mr, Herrick, City Attorney, stated as along as the homecwner is reasonable
in his construction, he has the right to build even if there is additional
drainage. He stated it is up to the City to see that there is a resonable
drainage plan for that area. He suggested the drainage plan be obtained
and a survey to obtain the elevations and when the grading is done, check
to make sure it complies with the elevation the plan shows.
Mr. Qureshi, City Manager, stated the water will drain as it does now from
east to west and then north, however, there is potential for additional
