<br />
<br />Representative Steve Novak
<br />Representative Novak expressed his desire to work with Arden Hills
<br />and the other municipalities in his distrIct, to help solve prObleMs.
<br />He offered to meet wIth the Arden Hills Council to discuss the
<br />variety of pending legislation and 'oeal needs. He specifIcally agreed
<br />to aid the Village In Its communications wIth the State Highway
<br />Department and to report the status of a recently IntrodUced bIll re
<br />the "open meeting law".
<br />
<br />ROlJe r Re I I I ng
<br />Mr. ReIling explained that he desires to remodel hIs grocery store
<br />and SerVice station at 3151 Lake Johanna BOUlevard, and he revlewad
<br />three optIons which Attorney Lynden had suggested might be pursued:
<br />
<br />I. To provide proof to Council that the non-conformIng
<br />use of the service station had not ceased for one year.
<br />2. To apply for rezoning of the property to R-S, and for a
<br />Special Use Permit for an automobile service station,
<br />and for a license under Ord. No. 132.
<br />3. To abandon In place, or remove, the underground tanks
<br />pursuant to Ord. 132.
<br />
<br />.
<br />
<br />Reiling said that he described the proposed remodeling plans at a
<br />December 1973 Council meeting; stating he Could not get gas, because
<br />of the gas shortage~ startIng In about June of 1973; but he continued
<br />to repair autos until nearly the end of 1973. He said he also rented
<br />trailers, which he considers to be an auxtllary use of a servIce sta-
<br />tIon, and that he used the tanks to store fuel 011 when gas was not
<br />available. He saId that when gas became available agaIn, about July
<br />of 1974, he ordered gas, and now has gas in the tanks, but no license
<br />to operate the statIon. Reiling explained that In hIs proposal to move
<br />the grocery, within the confines of the building, he had never en-
<br />visioned not having the gas station also.
<br />
<br />In dIscussion, It was noted that option No.2, to request rezoning to
<br />R-S and then to request a Special Us~ PermIt for the servIce station,
<br />could not be utilized because of the close proximIty of the station
<br />to a pUblic School COrd. 132, Sec. 3).
<br />
<br />After diSCUSSion, the matter was referred to the Board of Appeals for
<br />Its recommendations to the Council.
