Ceae No. 81-13, Setbeek Varience for Replacement Sign. Roaeville Stete Bank Council wes referred to Planning Memo (4-21-81), Planning Co..iasion Minutea (5-6-81) end Boerd of Appeals report (5-4-81); explained that a 3-aided pylon sign is proposed to replace the exiating "ground" aign which waa granted a 17' setbeck verianee et the time of its inatelletion. Miller expleined thet the veriance et that timewes based on the existence of trees which would block the view of the sign et the 25' setback; retionale for the varience atill exists, Miller reported thet the Boerd of Appeals end Plan.ing Com.iasion recom.end Council approvsl of the variance. -3- Minutes of Regular Council Meeting May 11, 19~1 ~ A aketch of the proposed sign was shown by Dave Shannon, Leroy Sign Co. The sign was described as a 3-faced internally luminated time and temperature pylon sign which meets all the requirementa of Ord. 216 (aign ordinance). Shannon noted that the sign waa de- signed to meet the ordinance requirements. In discuasion re eventual aetback when Lexington Avenue is improved, Miller aaid the sign ia now 38' to 40' from the curb; after improve- ment of Lexington, estimated sign would be sbout 28' from the curb. McAllister moved, seconded by Johnson, that Council approve the 17' setback variance for the pylon sign, as long as the mature treea remain. In further discussion, Hollenhorst said the propoaed sign does not .. appeal to her; prefers the existing low-key sign. McAllister said she likes the idea of "time and temperature". Woodburn suggeated that the sign appears too large-so close to the road; suggested that it be re-designed to a smaller scale. Shannon said the sign proposed is as small as it can be to contain the power pack to operate the time and temperature. Johnson suggested that an alternative of two small aigns might be a conaideration to reduce the mass. Motion did not carry (McAllister, Johnson voting in favor of the motion; Hollenhorst, Woodburn voting in opposition.) Case No. 80-19, Final Plat - McClunR Second Addition Council was referred to the proposed Final Plat of McClung Second Addition which Miller reported is identical to the approved Pre- liminary Plat. Miller reported that the Planning Commission recom- mends Council approval, as submitted. Johnson moved, seconded by Hollenhorst, that Council approve the Final Plat of McClung Second Addition, contingent upon: 1. Execution of the Development Agreement and receipt of Letter of Credit, 2. Resolution of park dedication prior to occupancy of the first house. Motion carried unanimously. (It was Council's and Mc.Clung's understanding that a achedule for payment of the park dedication will be devised at time of resolu- tion of the park dedication.) Case No. 81-9, Special Use Permit - Wind Generator Council was referred to Planning Memo (4-22-81) Board of Appeals report (5-4-81) and Planning Commission recommendation (Minutes of 5-6-81). Miller explained that the proposed tower is considered to be an "acceasory use other than normal" requiring a Special Use Permit; reported that neighborhood input at the hearing revealed concern re aafety, noise, aesthetics and possible liability to the City if tower should topple or cause injury or damage from flying blades, should they splinter or break. .. Miller reported that the Planning Commission unanimously recom- mends denial of the Special Use Permit for the wind generator, based on the concerns of the neighborhood. Miller noted that he ia uncertain of the conclusiona of the Board of Appeals, Lambroa addressed the objectiona and commenta made at the Public Hearing and read three letters from neighbors immediately adjacent to hia property (Belknap, Johnaon and Mondry) favoring the pro- posed wind generator. Lambroa aaid he feels alternate energy aya- tems should be encouraged; did not foresee any objection when application was made; explained that chances are, should the tower -4- .' M!~utes of Regular Council Meeting May 11, 1981 fall, it could hit only a corner of the Johnson house to the northeast; said he would assume liability for such an unlikely occurrenee. Lambros stated that the tower generator is very quiet; auto.atieal- ly feathers as it speedsup in strong winds; does not cut in until 10 mph. Lambros said the specifications for the tower are available; described the 8-foot pads which support the tower; suggested that the issue we are addressing is "energy", not the boathouse and storage buildings he happens to have on. his prop- erty, allude. to by neighborhood residents. . Hrs.Sheehy seid the vacant lot to the west of Lambros is the besch easement for Arden 3 residents where children play and swim; is concerned about the safety; opposes the tower height for aes- thetic and safety reasons. Shirley Ludlow said we hsve a Zoning Ordinsnce with regulations; feels they should be enforced; noted that the visibility of the tower will negatively impact the entire area; feele it is inap- propriate at this time; concerns of the neighbora should out-. weigh the whime of Mr. Lambros; the noise factor should definitely be checked before any consideration of approval. McAlliater asked how many of the Planning Commission or Council have actually looked and lietened to a tower in operation; eaid she went to Plymouth for this purpose and found the tower to be very quiet - a Redwing Rlackbird covered the noiee of the gener- ator; is in favor of the wind generator. Johnson asked whether the tower would have routine inspection and maintenance? Lambroe said it would be under a yearly .aintenance progrem; aa.e as painting and roofing your house; said ,the inetal-. lar/dealer would .aintain the tower on a yearly basis, or twice a year, if necessary. Hollenhorst aeked the affect on tbe grid should a breakdown occur. La.bros said it would not affect the grid; does not interfere with electric power of other people. Woodburn queried the economics; appears costa will exceed the anticipated savings. Johnson suggested that La.bros raduce the tower height to 80' or less, to just above the tree tops; aeked if Lambros ie proving a theory that it will work. Lambroe said he is certain it will work; an 80' tower would sac- rifice about 20% of the electricity generated by a 100' tower; tower should bar at 'leastl0 feet above obstacles. Lambros said he won't "get rich" on it; anticipatee $50 - $60/month from NSP; cost of tower will be $18,000 - $20,000. McAllister suggested that the cost of the tower, and whether or not Lambros' NSP bill is reduced, are not Council's concern; feele he has a right to do what he wants in hie own yard. . Ludlow eaid she strongly disagrees with allowing people to put things in their yards which are in violation of the ordinances; feels this is an inappropriate structure at this time and probably a business venture. Lambros ssid that the thought has crossed his mind to act as a Balesman, but this is not germain to the application; might want to pursue this at a later date. Miller noted that two variances are involved; a. setback variance - tower height exceeda the aetback, as proposed. b. tower height exceeds height of principle structure. McAllis te r moved, seconded by Woodburn, that Counci 1 gran t a Special Use Permit for the wind generator with the following contingenciee: -5- " Minutes of Regu1sr Council Meeting . May II, 19.IH a. tower setback to be at least 100' fro.. nearast neighbor's house. b. city will not be held liable for safety. c. tower will not set a precedent. Motion did not carry (McAllister voting in favor of the motion. Johnson, Hol1enhorst, Woodburn voting in opposition). Hollenborst said she considers it an exciting project if it could work somewhere with approval of the community. Hollenhorst moved, seconded by Woodburn, that Council deny the Special Use Permit for the wind generator. Motion carried (Hollenhorst, Johnson, Woodburn voting in favor of the motion; McAllister voting in opposition). Case No. 81-10. Setback Variance for House and Case No. 81-12, ~ Preliminary Plat - Christianson 1st Addition and Setback Variance Council was referred to Board of Appeals report (3-31-81) Planning Commission Minutes of 5-6-81 and to Planning Memo (4-21-81). Miller explained thst the applicant is simultaneously requesting vacation of the service drive at Ha..line Avenue, which he intends to add to Lot 3, the area proposed for grading for storm water storage. Miller reported that the Board of Appeels and Planning Com..ission reco....end approval of the 30' setback on all 4 lots (3-10t sub- division - Case 81-12, and lot previously created esst of the sub- division - Case 81-10). Johnson asked the depth of the water storage area after proposed arading. Engineer Sunde .aid it will be 6" below the present water level, which is about 2' below the invert at Hamline at pre- sent. -;ttf..l<-Zl~ , Sunde noted that a drainage canal to the . extends about 40' into the swa..p; was apparently constructed to drain tha swa..p at sOme previous time. Sunde said that when the volu..e of water exceeds the pipe capacity at Hamline Ave., water will fill the marsh, as it does now. McAllister asked sbout the easement over the wetland area. Sunde explained that this is required by RCWD. Woodburn noted that it is very unusual for RCWD to take an easement; suggested a covenant ease..ent to assure maintenance of the wetlsnd storage area would be desirable. Miller noted that it is the opinion of the applicant's attorney that the vacated service drive will revert to Christisnson. Hollenhorst moved, seconded by McAllister, that Council approve the Preliminary Plat of Christianson 1st Addition with the following contingencies: 1. Final grading plan approval by the City Engineer. 2. Vacation of 40' wide service road and its consolidation with Lot 3. 3. Excavation plan prior to final plat to be subject to approval by the City Engineer. Motion carried unanimously. ~ It was noted that vacation procedure may take some time to accom- pliSh, possibly a month or two. McAllister moved, seconded by Holl~nhorst, that Council approve a 30' front setback (10' variance) on all 4 Lots, to provide for limited usable rear yards. Motion did not carry (McAllister, Hollenhorst voting in favor of the motion; Johnson, Woodburn vot- ing in opposition).

Motion carried unanimously. -6- . . . Kiputes of Regulsr Council Keeting Kay 11, 1981 Case 81-11, Side Setback Variances - Lot I, Block 1 and Lot 19. Block 3, Ksrth Lake Eststes Council was referred to Planning Memo (4-23-81) and to a trans- parency of the area around the two coroer lots. Miller suggested separate Council action on each variance request because of the individual hardship circumstances sttributable to eacb lot. Miller explained tbat a 30' setback is requested from Ha.line Ave. on Lot I, Block 1; noted tbat tbe bouse across the street is at 20' setback; hardsbip on Lot 1 is the lack of an sdequate build- ing envelope if the 40' setback is enforced; noted that Karth Lake Estat~a was platted prior to the 40' setback requirement On corner lots from both streets. Miller reported that the Board of Appeals and Plaoning Co.misaion recommend approval of a 30' setback on both corner lots. Johnson moved, seconded by Bollenhorst, tbat Council approve a 30' side setbaCk from Hamline Avenue r.o.w. (10' variance) on Lot I, Block 1, Karth Lake Estates. Motion carried unanimously. Miller noted the existing setback on the corner lot across the atreet at 35' snd the corner lot to the south of the subject lot at 20'; noted that applicant is requesting a 20' setback on Lot 19, B lk. 3. Applicant said he has aold the house for this lot snd "csn live with a 30' setback from Pleasant Drive, rather than 20' requested. McAllister .oved, seconded by Bollenhorst that Council approve a 10' setback variance (30' setback from Pleasant Drive r.o.w.) Motion carried unanimously. Marcel Eibensteiner described a lake setback problem on Lot 40, Block I, Karth Lake Eatat.s; noted that the setback requirement, when platted, wsa 40' from the lake; current requirement is 75'. A plat of Karth Lake Estates was shown to Council indicating existing houses at lake setbacks of 40', 45' and 50'. Eibenateiner said that in order to get an adequate building envelope, a 50' lake setback is needed on Lot 40, Block 1. Council advised that, by ordinance, the varisnce procedure must be followed; suggested that if other problem lots can be identi- fied, should pursue variances for those at the sa.e time. ' Case No. 77-60A, Final Plat - Briarknoll Plat Two Miller referred Council to the Preliminary Plat of Briarknoll, showing how the second addition relates to the first addition. Miller reported that proposed final plat of Briarknoll Plat two is'in substantial compliance with the Preliminary Plat as approved and is recommended by the Planning Commission for approval by Council subject to the requested lot line modifications and approval by the City Engineer. McAllister expressed concern re platting of lots which are sub- standard in area, width etc., especially corner lots. Miller ex- plained that the developer has been alert~d to the 40' sideyard setbsck requirement for corner lots. Dietrich said they propose to reduce the access width (Briarknoll Drive to Outlot) to 25 feet, adding 12~ feet to the width of corner lots (Lot 1, Blk. 2 and Lot 5, Block 3) by sliding the lot lines of Lots 1 thru 6, Block 2 and Lota 1 thru 5, Block 3. Miller referred Council to Planning Memo (4-23-81) noting the Iota identified. as having dimensio..less than ordinance requirements. Miller reported that these substandard dimensions were identified prior to Preliminary Plat approval. In discussion, it was noted that resolution of the park dedication for Briarknoll First Addition and Briarknoll Plat Tw. is pending; also ownership and .sintenance of the outlot. Dietrich said he vas required to set this area aside for water storage by the City Engineer and lCWD; lCWD has a te.porary construction ease.ent now. -7- . Minutes of Regular Council Meeting . May 11, 1981. Dietrich said it is his intent to deed it to someone eventually; stated that the required pond area and trails were discusaed pre- viously as qualifying for psrk dedication - ~oted that there are 129.3 acres in this drainage basin, 46.7 acres in Briarknoll, 65% outside of Briarknoll. RCWD determined the acre feet of water storage needed; Briarknoll could have used a considerable percent- age of this for bUilding lots. Hollenhorst moved, seconded by McAllister that Council approve the Final Plat of Briarknoll Plat Two, subject to: 1. Execution of the Development Agreement and receipt of Letter of Credic. 2. Approval of Plans and Specifications for grading, sewer, . water and streets. 3. Adjustment of lot lines, Blocks 2 and 3 by reducing Outlot access to 25' width and adding 12~'width to corner lot I, Block 2 and Lot 5, Block 3.

Case No. 78 - 35A, Variance - Exiating Temporary Real Estate Sign Miller reviewed the history of the Briarknoll sign proposals; noted that the existing temporary resl estate sign was permitted by Council, prior to adoption of Ord. 216, permit to expire February 13, 1981 or until the last home is sold, whichever occurs first. Miller reported that Council extended the permit for this sign until April 30th 1981 with the understanding that the applicant reduce the size of the sign to meet the 32 sq. ft. area maximum (Ord. 216) or apply for a variance for the existing sign. Miller referred Council to Sketch of the existing sign (48 sq. ft), approximately 9 feet in height, including the support frame; re- ported that the Board of Appeals and Planning Commission recommend Council approval of the existing temporary real estate sign until 85% of lots are aold. Hollenhorst moved, seconded by McAllister, that Council grant approval of the sign area and height variances, permitting the existing temporary real estate sign at Hamline and Colleen Ave. (Briarknoll) until 85% of the lots are sold.
