THE MOT�CARR ---�Y` A VOTEOF 4-1.
Ms. Mced this item will go to City Council on September
8 , 92 .
2 . CONSIDERATION OF VACATION REQUEST, SAV #92-02 , BY JOHN
RAINVILLE:
To vacate that part of a public street dedication described
as follows: Commencing at the center line of Anoka Street on
the North line of the Southeast Quarter of the Northeast
Quarter of Section 13 , Township 30, Range 24 ; thence North 88
degrees 34 minutes west, a distance of 29. 66 feet to the point
of beginning. Thence south 30. 01 feet; thence North 37
degrees 0 minutes 40 seconds west, a distance of 38 . 31 feet;
thence East to the point of beginning. Generally located at
67th Avenue and Anoka Street.
Ms. McPherson stated this vacation request is to vacate a portion
of an existing public right-of-way located at the end of Anoka
Street and adjacent to Rice Creek Park. The property is zoned R-
1, Single Family. This request is in conjunction with a second
request for a variance which was reviewed and tabled by the Appeals
Commission on July 21 and will be reviewed again on August 18,
1992 . The variance request is to reduce the front yard and side
yard setbacks on this lot to allow the construction of a single
family dwelling.
Ms. McPherson stated the lot is located at the end of Anoka Street.
It is currently heavily wooded, vacant, and has some very steep
topography. The petitioner is proposing the variance in order to
construct the structure on the flattest part of the property.
Ms. McPherson stated the proposed vacation request deals with a
small triangle area in the northeast corner of the lot. When the
lot was platted in 1963 , in addition to the cul-de-sac right-of-
way adjacent to the subject property, this particular triangle was
dedicated as part of an octagon-shaped right-of-way to provide some
type of access into the Anoka County park property. Currently
located in this area of the property is a footpath which leads to
the Anoka County park facility. The petitioner assisted her in
locating the primary and secondary pathways which come off the
Anoka Street cul-de-sac and go down into the Anoka County park
facility.
Ms. McPherson stated that due to the topography in this general
vicinity and the fact that the property north of the subject
V
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING AUGUST 12 1992 PAGE 8
property is Anoka County park property, construction of a public
road in this area would not be practically feasible. Staff is
recommending that the vacation request be approved by the City only
if the variance request is also approved. If the variance request
is denied, there is really no reason for the vacation request to
be approved. The reason for the vacation request is to provide
additional buildable area for the proposed single family dwelling.
Mr. Betzold asked if it would be desirable or necessary to save any
easement for public access to the park property.
Ms. McPherson stated that is an option for the City, however, there
is public right-of-way directly to the east where the secondary
path is located.
Mr. John Rainville stated he is asking for the vacation of one
corner of the triangular piece of land. The. path does go down to
the Creek in that area, but there is ample land available to the
east for access to the Creek. He did not believe he would be
encroaching on anyone' s opportunity to develop the park land
further. .
Mr. Rainville stated he has designed a house that he believes will
work on this lot. He is willing to work with the City on the size
and placement of the house and the garage. He would take care of
any erosion problems. He could guarantee the City that he will not
use treated timbers or creosote-treated timbers. He would use a
cedar, redwood, or masonry product. Moving the house back to where
the deck is proposed would probably mean the removal of some
hardwood trees. He works for the Minneapolis Park & Recreation
Department, and he is opposed to cutting down quality trees.
Mr. Kevin Cyrus, 6680 Anoka Street, stated that the primary and
secondary path merge midway down the slope. The. secondary path is
quite steep,. and, if the vacation is approved, the Creek will be
virtually inaccessible.
Mr. Radel, 6655 Anoka Street, stated there is very little flat land
on this property and it is all sand. There is no way that erosion
can be prevented. The petitioner should be required to follow City
Code like everyone else.
Mr. Rainville stated that if the size of the house is reduced, then
he would like to put up a fence in that area to give him some
security from the traffic to and from the Creek. If the house size
is reduced, then an option might be an easement and the City
maintaining the right-of-way. Right now, the primary path is the
path of least resistance. It is already on his property, so access
will automatically get shifted over to the secondary path. There
is adequate land east of his property for access. The two paths
join within 20-25 feet of the curb line.
r.
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, AUGUST 12 , 1992 PAGE 9
Mr. Kuechle stated he is in favor of recommending approval of the
vacation request. Even though the primary path might be better,
it is on the petitioner' s property and, therefore, people are
trespassing on at least a portion of his property. With the street
right-of-way, there is still more than adequate access to the park
land. If the vacation makes it easier to build on that lot, the
City can well afford to give up that small portion of land.
Mr. Sielaff stated he did not object to the vacation. He had been
concerned about some safety issues if the primary path is less
steep than the secondary path, but there is a safety issue anyway
where the paths converge on the way down to the Creek. He would
vote in favor of the vacation request.
Mr. Saba agreed. He stated they should give the petitioner the
opportunity to try to build on this property.
Mr. Betzold stated he also did not have any objection to the
vacation. This is a fairly minimal area. He wanted to stress to
the petitioner and the neighbors that anything discussed at this
meeting by the Planning Commission is not in any way to suggest or
influence the Appeals Commission and the City Council in their
review and action regarding the variance request.
MOTION by Ms. Sherek, seconded by Mr. Kuechle, to recommend to City
Council approval of vacation request, SAV #92-03 , by John
Rainville, to vacate that part of a public street dedication
described as follows: Commencing at the center line of Anoka
Street on the North line of the Southeast Quarter of the Northeast
Quarter of Section 13 , Township 30, Range 24 ; thence North 88
degrees 34 minutes west, a distance of 29.66 feet to the point of
beginning. Thence south 30 . 01 feet; thence North 37 degrees 0
minutes 40 seconds west, a distance of 38 . 31 feet; thence East to
the point of beginning. Generally located at 67th Avenue and Anoka
Street, with the following stipulation:
1. Variance request, VAR #92-16, shall be approved.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON BETZOLD DECLARED THE
MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
Ms. McPherson stated the Appeals Commission will re-review the
variance request on August 18 . The City Council will hold a public
hearing on the vacation request in about 4-6 weeks. She stated
that when she gets the specific dates of the Council meetings, the
neighbors will be notified.

Request
The petitioner requests that a 30 ' x 30 ' x 38 ' triangle in the
northeast corner of Lot 1, Block 1, Rice Creek School Addition be
vacated in order to combine it with the adjacent vacant lot to
provide buildable space in order to construct a single family
dwelling. The request is generally located at 6700 Anoka Street
N.E.
The petitioner has also applied for variances to reduce the front
yard and side yard setbacks in order to build a single family home.
The Appeals Commission will review the request at its August 18,
1992 meeting.
Site
The site is vacant, is heavily wooded, and has steep slopes. The
property is zoned R-1, Single Family Dwelling as are adjacent
properties to the south, west, and east. Located to the north is
Anoka County park property.
Analysis
The petitioner requests that the triangle of right-of-way be
vacated in order to prevent the proposed deck and stairs from
encroaching onto the public right-of-way. The right-of-way was
platted in 1963 as part of right-of-way dedicated in a pentagon
shape at the end of Anoka Street N.E. There is currently a dirt
path which exits the Anoka Street cul-de-sac and enters the Anoka
County park. This path is located within the right-of-way area and
on the petitioner' s property. A second path in the right-of-way
to the east of the subject parcel and provides access into the
Anoka County park, therefore, vacating the subject right-of-way
would not adversely impact park access. Due to the topographic
constraints and the fact that the property located to the north of
the subject parcel is owned by Anoka County, the construction of
a public road is not practically feasible.
The right-of-way should only be vacated if the variance request is
approved, as it is only required to provide additional area for the
dwelling and to prevent the dwelling front encroaching into the
public right-of-way.
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend approval
of the vacation request, SAV #92-02 , by John Rainville, with one
stipulation:
1. Variance request, VAR #92-16, shall be approved.
