MAYOR

SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING, APRIL 10, 1967
PAGE 32
MOTION by Councilman Sheridan to grant a hot Split to Mylo Parks on Lot #10,
Auditor's Subdivision No. 10 (Revised) so that starting from Central Avenue
going East, the first ;)arcel size will be approximately 235 feet, the next
parcel to the East will be 109 feet, and the third parcel, which is the
farthest to the East, will be 90 feet. Seconded by Councilman Harris. Upon
a voice vote, there being no nays, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried.
j 3RD STREET PATTERN:
a
Councilman Liebl asked if every member of the Council was aware that Erickson
Petroleum had dropped the proposal, and was not going through with their
request that 3rd Street go through to 57th Avenue. Councilman Liebl asked
if any member of the Council had anything to do with it or had discussed
it with Mr. Rote. He asked the City Manager if he knew what the reason was
for it being dropped, The City Manager said that Mr. Rote had just asked him
to take it off the Planning Commission's agenda, which he said he could not
do. He told Mr. Rote he should write a letter explaining why they wanted it
taken off. He said that the letter had arrived on the same day as the
Planning Commission meeting. He said that Mr. Jensen had talked to Mr. Rote
and he understood that they were concerned that someday they might want a
building there. Councilman Liebl said that in the Minutes of the Plats and
Subdivisions Sub -Committee Meeting, two had voted in favor of it, two
against, and Mr. Jensen had abstained. He asked why Mr. Jensen had abstained.
The City Manager said he did not know, and he did not believe anyone had
asked Mr. Jensen. Councilman Liebl said that last year Erickson Petroleum
had been very anxious to get this road through, and he had been very
i astonished when they had dropped it. Mayor Kirkham said he was curious also,
t and had a call into the office now, although he did not,know if they wanted
their reasons made public.
TWO FAMILY DWELLING - 7541 UNIVERS : AVENUE NORTHEAST- C11MIELEWSKI:
The City Manager said that the Boar` )f Appeals had only had a few days to
look at this request prior to the `.,- ring, but all five members of the Board
had gone out and looked at it on the following Saturday. He said that it
had come to the Planning Commission Meeting April 6th because the new
Board of Appeals Ordinance did not go into effect until April 8th. He read
the motion of the Planning Commission recommending approval. He said that
the ordinance requires that the Council call a Public Hearing, so the Council
can either concur and set the hearing, or deny the request.
Councilman Harris asked Mr. S. Chmielewski about the lots to the north and
south of his lot. Mr. Chmielewski said there is a house to the north and a
house to the south zoned residential. Councilman Harris asked about the size
of his lot. Mr. Chmielewski said it was 175x135. Councilman Harris asked if
this will have to go to the Building Board. The City Manager said that -they
will have to go to the Building Board with the plans for the structure.
Mr. Chmielewski said he had found some smashed footings on this lot. The
City Manager said that if this was from over 8 years ago, there would be no
record. Councilman. Sheridan said that at one time there was a high water
table in this area which may explain the old footings. Mayor Kirkham said
he thought this area was complete. Councilman Samuelson said that it was
R-1 on both sides and R-1 in back.
The Council discussed a date for a Public 'riearing and decided on May 1st.
SPECIAL COUNCIL rIIsETING, APRIL 1.0, 1967 PAGE 33
MOTION by Councilman Samuelson that the Special Permit Application go through
the normal procedures, and a Public Hearing be set for May 1, 1967 to fill
the Council's obligations. Seconded by Councilman Sheridan.
i
Councilman Sheridan said that he would like to explain to the parties
applying that the Council has only granted two or three Special Use Permits
for multiple dwellings in residential districts in the past, and those
were considerably larger lots. He said that he would like to express his
opinion, that regardless of the hearing, he would not be in favor of the
permit because of the lot size, but the Council will go through the necessary
procedures. Mayor Kirkham said he did not like to discourage the petitioners
unnecessarily, but they should be apprised of the fact that with the knowledge
he has so far, he will be in opposition, but that the Council will go ahead
with the hearing May 1st.
UPON a voice vote, there being no nays, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion
carried.
ADJOURNMF7,NT:
There being no further business, Mayor Kirkham declared the Special Council
Meeting of April 10, 1967 closed at 9:22 P.M.
Respectfully submitted,
Mary Lu Strom
Secretary to the Council
REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING, MAY 15, 1967
PAGE 3
MOTION by Councilman Harris that this project not be put in at this time,
but be returned.to the Administration for an alternate solution on enforcing •-�,
the off-street parking for the affected property.
The City Engineer said that the Administration had written letters in 1962
telling the people they were in violation and that they had to provide
parking in the back, but they had come to the Council about the water
problem, so it was now up to the Council on whether it be done now or not,
but he felt that it should be brought to their attention.
The Motion was seconded by Councilman Samuelson. Councilman Liebl asked the
people present in the audience if there was a water problem. One of the
visitors said that the first apartment has water in the spring as it runs
down the slope, but an alley would just make it a runway and increase the
problem.
The vote upon the motion was a voice vote, there being no nays, Mayor Kirkham
declared the motion carried.
SEWER USE AGREEMENT (TABLED 5/8/67):
Mayor Kirkham reminded the Council that this is the letter he had read at the
last Council Meeting, and the Council had decided to reconsider the last
paragraph. Mayor Kirkham suggested that they just eliminate the first two
sentences of the last paragraph, and start the last paragraph, "If this be
your position, we suggest then that you commence a declaratory judgment action
to have the meaning of the supplemental agreement determined by the District
Court." Councilman Samuelson suggested that in the -fourth paragraph, they'
eliminate the word "ignore" and substitute the words, "to use their own
interpretation of".
MOTION by Councilman Liebl to adopt the letter to the NSSSD with the proposed
changes. The motion was seconded and upon a voice vote, there being no nays,
;Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried.
NDOUBLE BUNGALOW USE PERMIT (HEARING CLOSED 5/1.76n;_
Councilman Samuelson said his feelings were ti:A= this was spot zoning and
would be putting a multiple dwelling in the i7imediate center of an R-1 District.
MOTION by Councilman Samuelson to deny the Double Bungalow Use Permit Council-
man Liebl asked about the zoning surrounding this lot. Councilman Harris said
that it was all R-1. Councilman Liebl said he assumed that the people opposed
this. Councilman Samuelson said there had been no one present at the meeting
either pro or con except the people making thQ application. Councilman Harris
said he thought this had been disposed of at the last meeting. Mayor Kirkham
said that the hearing had been closed but no action had been taken.
The motion was seconded by Councilman Harris. Upon a voice vote, there being
no nays, Mayor Kirkham declared the motion carried.
REZONING REQUEST IN SPRING BROOK PARK AREA (TABLED 5/1/67):
The City Engineer pointed out on the map the different' zonings requested.
Councilman Harris asked if Ashton was a deadend. The City Engineer said that
it goes to Ironton now, and eventually will go to the City limits at the
railroad tracks. Councilman Samuelson asked if this was the Planning
Commission's scheme. The City Engineer said that it was.
