PRESENTATIONS FROM THE FLOOR - NONE 5. REPORTS OF COMMITTEES - a. Bemis asked Mr. Dale to proceed with his report. Dale stated that the council and planning committee had now received "Planning report #1 - Analysis of existing Development of Gem Lake Village", that comments had been received on this report and that he was now submitting report #2, called "A Comprehensive guide Plan for the Village of Gem. Lake - Dratf Copy". With this report he also submitted the following maps: - LAND USE PLAN OUTLINE OF ZONING TEXT CIRCULATION STUDY Dale stated that after the council and the planning committee had studied the Guide Plan and the Maps, and made any comments or changes, the Guide Plan would then be put into final forth and would be accompanied with report #3 "Subdivison Regulations" and #4 "Zoning Ordinance", and that these items are those which make the Plan effective. General discussion followed with respect to the Land Use Map.Dale pointed out that in some areas the larger lot sizes were running from 21 to 5 acres, but they felt that the choice of 3 acres for our larger lots was in keeping with the atmosphere we wish to keep in Gem Lake and that if at a later date there became a demand to split these lots, they could be split to 12 acres, but provision should be made that houses should be so placedon the 3 acre lots so that splitting could be possible. There was considerable discussion of the 21,000 foot lots, in the south west corner, and it was decided that as our present limit was 20,060 sq.ft., this did not make much of a change and that 24,000 feet was a good size. At the same time it was pointed out that the Minimum Floor areas per dwellingunit ? been increased to:- 3 acres - 19800 sq. ft 1 acre - 1,500 ' " It 36,000 sq. ft" if. 1,200 200 sq, ft, lift As far as the commercial zoning suggestions were concerned, the group seemed to feel that these were about right, and fitt3d with existing conditions. Dale also showed skeatches in connection with the "Outline of Zoning Text" to explain "Lot frontage", "Front yard set backs", "Side yard set backs", "Rear ,yard set backs", and "Permitted uses", 34th Meeting - Page #2. This "Outline of Zoning Text" gives a very good picture of what is intended in the "Land use plan". Dale pointed out that the "Circulation Map" was most important because it indicated the direction and size of roads that would be required if this area should develope and be subdivided. He said it was essential to keep such "circulation i' in mind at all times to avoid a bodge-podge of roads at some late date.This has happened all too often and is most uneconomic. Dale explained the difference between a "BUILDING CODE - which applies to new construction only " and a "HOUSII@ CODE - which applies only to existing structures and is used to upgrade the looks of the area". In general the Council and the Planning Committee felt that our Planners had submitted a very fine group of suggestions that we were moving along well. Dale stated that at the next meeting he would submit a special report on the development of the present shopping area in Gem Lake. Shooping center competition is coming fast and certain recommendations may be helpful. The council and the planning committee are to submit any ideas or suggestions to Dale as soon as they have a chanee to read the "Guide Plan" anc3 study the "Maps".This should be done in the next two weekd= T?Pmis thanked Dale and this part of the meeting was closed. LAKE AREA PLANNING COM. - Bemis reported that he had been asked at the last meeting if Gem Lake was interested to annexing any part of the area north of the Railroad tracks for industrial purposes or otherwise.It was the opinion of the council that we were not interested. Bemis also enquired if Gem Lake was in any way directly interested in the White Bear Lake Pollution problems. Our interest is only secondary as few Gem Lakers, use White Bear Lake. 6. UNFINISHED BUSINESS - NONE 7. NEW BUSNNESS - a. Moved by Hansen and seconded by Arcand that we approved the `a supplemental contract with the Sheriff of Ramsey County for 24 hour 0 service at an additional cost of #338.23 per year and that the Mayor and Clerk be authorized to sign the contract.

FORTIETH METING - VILLAGE OF GEM LAKE COUNCIL DECEMBER llth 1962 - HOFFMANS CORNERS HALL FIRST HEAhING ON THE VILLAGE PLAN AND ZONING ORDINANCE - AFTER TWO PUBLIC NOTICES IN THE WHITE BEAK FRESS AND SEPARATE NOTICES PLACED IN EACH MAIL BOX BY THE MAYOR. Mayor Hoffman opened the public hearing at 8:10 PM, by introducing Judson Bemis Chairman of the Village Planning Committee to about 40 to 50 residents and mentioned that Howard Dahlgren of Midwest Planning & Research was there to explain the details. Bemis reviewed the history of the village plan, the reasons for having a plan and the reasons for employing a professional planning group, experienced in this particular type of work.He pointed out the nedd for having a basic plan so that the village can be prepared to meet changes and growth in the community as it developer. % e then turned the meet- ing over to Howard Dahlgren. Dahlgren came prepared with extra maps and an easel so that he could explain and demonstrate what he was talking about. He mentioned the procedure which had been followed, first a report on the conditions in the village as they now exist, then a report made with the planning committee on where the village wished to go and what kind of a village the people wanted.He then explained that the Zoning Ordinance and the Subdivision Regulations were the method by which the village could ccntrol its future and follow the direction in ihIch it wanted to go. He outlined the Zoning Districts xxdxkkx with the four residential areas and three business areas, together with lot sizes,frontages, set -backs, permitted uses and special uses. He laid great emphasis on the fact that it was his understanding that this community was not seeking industrial activity, and would therefore not have to consider the services which would be required if it did, and that we could get along with contract services for Fire and Police and did not have to worry about sewer and water problems for many years The residents followed his discussion with maps and zoning text which they had been handed, and the only question raised was by Gil Foster in connection with his Golf Course. Dahlgren approved highly of the golf course 'nd only warned that some trouble had been experienced when par 3 courses had expanded to include bars and restaurants. NK This golf course will come under a special use permi# that can be granted by the Council in R-1 sec. 7.3 Dahlgren finished his discourse ab out 9:15 and there was general conversation for a few minutes. The Mayor then explained to those present that White Bear City was going ahead with its sewer plans and that the sewer would run down the East side of the R.R.Tracks and a possible hook in might be made down by Orcharc Lane, at an estimated cost of $30,000. He also pointed out that if a branch line ran up Scheuneman Road that it might cost fro m �8.00 to $10,00 per front foot and might require bondissues, interest and more taxes. The Mayor asked for a show of hands if anyone on Shheuneman Rd might want a sever connection - the Vote was a unanimous NO, He also mentioned that the merchants in the village might find it wise to get a connection for themselves, which would not inv6lve the village.
