MOTION by Minish, recorded
the Public Hearing of the
' by Robert McGregor. Upon a voice
unanimously.
by 7ecr.'• n, that the Planning Commission Crlose
Pre ,_ mirnary Flat, P.S. #72-Q3, Timber Ridge
votes•, all voting aye, the motion carried
Comment was made about using gutters on the houses and Mr. DeZurik said
that unless it was absolutely necessary, Mr. McGregor does not intend using
gutters because he felt they added very little to the aesthetics. If possible
they would prefer not to have gutters in the stipulation, but have the wordipg
in such a way that they would be open to other alternates. That would bq
appreciated.
Mr. Clark stated that the Association By -Laws will have to be approved
by the City Attorney. He believed there should be a statement whereby the
petitioner does recognize there could be an erosion problem with Units 33, 34
and 35 w#h drainage and grading, and the building permits note it thereon.
This may or may not be taken care of in the By -Laws of the Associatton.
Mr. DeZurik said if the Home Owners' Association should Change the land
in some, they would not want to be responsible.
MOTION by Minish, seconded by Schmedeke, that the Planning Commission
.recommend approval to Council of the Preliminary Plat, P.S. #72-05, Timber
Rim, by Robert L. McGregor being the North 824.7'of the West Quarter of the
Northeast Quarter of the Northeast Quarter of Section 14, and that the FINAL
ELAN of the Townhouse Development be approved subject to showing on the plat
the land dedicated to the City for park land, satisfactory arrangement for
indemnification to the Cjty in the event an erosion problem develops along
the bank, approval of the By -Laws of the Association subject to study by the
City Attorney, deposit- with the administration of $500 for park escrow, accept-
able drainage and grading on the bank improvement to retain soil. Upon a
voice vote, all voting aye, the motion carried unanimously.
5. LOT SPLIT REQUEST: L.S. 4672-06, MRS. MARION JOHNSON: Lot 1, Block 1,
/ Moore Lake Highlands. To gain one additional building site.
Representing the petition: Mrs. Marion Johnson and Mr. Dennis Collins.
Mr. Schmedeke explained that the Plats & Subdivisions -Streets & Utilities
Subcommittee met at 7:00 P.M. this evening. They approved the lot split. The
frgntage is to be on Able Street, a 12 foot sidewalk easement is to be given on
the North. The members of the Subcommittee had walked the area. The homes
to the'South are a smaller type; the home to the East is set back quite far. I
Mrs. Johnson'$ home sets back quite far also. The second home sets forward.
Witt} this in mind, the Subcommittee approved the request because the proposed
house will conform to the neighborhood.
Mr. Clark said the size of the new lot would be 80'x100'. The person
who contemplates building will set his house back 35 feet from Mississippi.
There will be a tuck -under garage with access 25 or 30 feet back from Mississippi
and access off Able Street. The rear yard would be 19 feet and there would
be 4bogt 20 feet between the East side and East lot line. He was told he
would have to go for variances on the rear yard before he started to build.
o ..
Planning Commission Meeting - August 9, 1972 Page 11_�
Mr. Schmedeke added that the neighbor, Mr. Paulson, was written a letter
informing him of the lot split. He didn't answer or show up. Mrs. Johnson
said that she spoke to him and he didn't object.
Mr. Clark said the new house would set further away from Able Street
by S or 10 feet. The house will face Mississippi Street with the tuck -under
garage exiting on Able Street. Because the rear yard would be encroaching
on the petitioner's house, there probably wouldn't be any objectlgns.
MOTION by Schmedeke, seconded by Zeglep, that the Planning Commission
recommend approval to the City Council of the Lot Split Request, L.S. #7,Z-06,
by Mrs. Marion Johnson of Lot 1, Block 1, Moore Lake Highlands subject to the
frontage being on Able Street, the lot to be a minimum of 80 feet, a 42, fgp't
sigewalk easement on the North lot line adjacent to Mississippi Street be
dedicated, and driveway access to the lot be from Able Street. Upon a voice
vote, all voting aye, the motion carried unanimously.

There being no further business, Chairman Erickson adjourned the
meeting at 11:20 P.M.

The Minutes of the Board of Appeals of i,lsust. 29, 19;2 Page 4
3. A REQUEST FOR A VARIANCE OF SECTION 45.05',, 4C. FRIDLEY CITY Co)E, TO REDUCE THE
MINIMUM REAR YARD DEPTH FROM 2� FEET T(! 19 FEET TO ALLOW THE CONSTRUCTION OF A
DWELLING TO BE LOCATED ON THE NORTH 8C FEET OF LOT 1, BLOCK 2, MOORE U KE H1CHLANDS,
THE SAME BEING 910 MISSISSIPPI STREET N.E., FRIDLEY, MINNESOTA. (REQUEST BY AR.
DENNIS COLLINS, 3804 HIGHCREST ROAD N.E., MINNLAPOLIS, MINNESOTA.)
Mr. Collins was present to present the request. A survey of the property and a
sketch of the House on the lot were presented to the Board.
Mr. Collins stated the Planning Commission had approved the lot split on Lot 1 on
August 9, 1972. The result of the lot split was this 80 .foot by 100 foot lot. He
added the house will be 26 feet by 50 feet and have a tuck under garage that will
exit onto Able Street. The other setback requirements have been met. There is no
other way to position the house on the lot.
Mr. Crowder stated the Plats and Subs. Subcommittee and the Planning Commission,
in essence, created a substandard lot by approving the lot split.
Mr. Belisle said that the Code states where lot splits are permitted, the lot does
not have to have the minimum lot area.
Mr. Collins added there will be 30 feet between the back of his house and the side
of the adjoining house.
MOTION by Crowder, seconded by Harju to close the public hearing. Upon a voice
vote, there being no nays, the motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Harju stated the request seems reasonable since the lot was split. He felt a
person should have a right to build on this lot and the variance is only decreasing
his own back yard and presumably there would be a privacy fence put up if there
are any problems.
Mr. Crowder stated there is definitely a hardship because of the lut split.
MOTION by Crowder to recommend to Council approval of the request to reduce the
rear yard from 25 feet to 19 feet.
Seconded by Harju. Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, the motion carried
unanimously.
4. A REOUEST FOR VARIANCES OF; SECTION 45.104, 2A, FRIDLEY CITY CODE, TO REDUCE THE
NUMBER OF PARKING SPACES REQUIRED FOR 341 SEATING SPACES FROM 86 TO 77 AND SECTION
45.103, 4C, 1 TO REDUCE THE REAR YARD REQUIREMENT FROM 25 FEET TO 7 FEET. TO

MINNESOTA (REQUEST BY MR WILLIAM NICKLOW, 6161 HIGHWAY #65 N.E., FRIDLFY, MINNESOTA.
Mr. William Nicklow was present to present the request.
MOTION by Harju, seconded by Crowder, to waive reading the public hearing notice.
Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, the motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Wyman Smith, Attorney for St. Anthony Village Shopping Center, Inc., and
Mr. Max Saliterman, representing Sears, were present to object to the variances.

CONSIDERATION OF ISLAND OF PEACE COMMITTEE REQUEST FOR ADVANCEMENT OF FUNDS:
Councilman Mittelstadt reported that he had received some input that the
feeling was that the Committee ought to have approved or disapproved of this
letter before it came to Council. The Committee has not seen this letter.
Mayor Liebl agreed that the Chairman should not have written the letter
if it was not approved by the Committee. He said he would like to have the
City Manager, and the City Attorney meet with the Committee to iron out some
disagreements between some of the men.
The City Attorney said that some of the members have indicated that they
would 11ke to see the Committee enlarged to encompass people with different
backgrounds. He said he understood there was to be an Island of Peace
Committee meeting on Wednesday, September 13th, and he would be glad to
attend.
The City Manager reported that he suggested to Mr. Olson that this letter be
submitted to the Council on the basis that he would not have the authority to
expend City funds without formal Council authorization. He had suggested
this letter be prepared because there are bills pending and he felt the
Council should be aware of these expenses.
