Introductory Review of M and H Gas Station Proposal: Sally Ackerman and
Giorgi Gochitashvili would like to renovate the gas station/convenience store
building and turn it into a car dealership. They would keep the mechanic shop
behind the gas station as is to do repairs on cars. Chairman Rafferty stated that
they may have to put in a new well as required. This is an introductory session
only. They are thinking of purchasing the property for a small dealership of about
twenty to twenty five cars. There was discussion about the zoning of the
property as it's zoned for a gas station/convenience store at this time. They
would have to work with Tom Riedesel from White Bear Township for a
conditional use permit and they would need to draw up a plan and present it to
the Planning Commission. There would be a need to have an inspection and soil
testing in case replacement of the tanks buried underground was required. It
was discussed that the plan would need to have the layout of the buildings and
property and present it by the middle of May, 2010. Then they would proceed to
have a public hearing where the businesses around that area would have the
opportunity to ask questions. The first step is to fill out the application and
present the plan to the Planning Commission. There would also be an escrow
fee. They would also need to apply for a business license and a state license.
Review of Planning Commission Size Preference: It was discussed whether
the Planning Commission would add an additional fifth member, add an alternate
or do not change the number of the Planning Commission. The three options
were discussed and it was decided to add an alternate to the Planning
Commission. The alternate can only vote if not enough members were at the
meeting. Upon motion by Commissioner Wippich and seconded by Chairman
Rafferty, motion passed to add an alternate and will send it to the City Council for
the May City Council meeting. Ayes — 2, Nays — 0.
Comprehensive Plan Review — Section Five — "ES" Estate Residential
District: Attorney Trevor Oliver went through Section Five and made some
changes to the wordage. Section Five is working with the zoning ordinance. A
five acre minimum size lot for any new development. The existing map has not
changed much. The McNaulty lots would be grandfathered in and anything that
touches the lake would be considered an estate. Trevor is working on ordinance
107 for the comp plan; general regulations. The Gateway ordinance is already
done. Once this is ready, a public hearing can be scheduled to make the
amendments at the Planning Commission meeting.
ADJOURN
Upon motion by Commissioner Wippich and seconded by Chairman Rafferty,
the May 4, 2010 regular meeting of the Planning Commission was adjourned at

repair after darnage to existing nonconlorming structures and nonconforming uses of
structures or land are regulated by the general provisions of this Ordinance and
specifically Section 9.
B. As -built elevations for elevated or flood proofed structures must be certified by ground
surveys and flood proofing techniques must be designed and certified by a registered
professional engineer or architect as specified in the general provisions of this
Ordinance and specifically as stated in Section 9 of this Ordinance.
SECTION 4. FLOODWAY DISTRICT (FW)
The permitted and conditional uses listed below are allowed in the Foodway if not otherwise
prohibited by the underlying zoning district classification applicable to the property.
4.1 Permitted Uses:
A. General farming, pasture, grazing, outdoor plant nurseries, horticulture, and wild crop
harvesting.
j
B. Boat launching ramps, swimming areas, parks, wildlife and nature preserves- and

D. Placement of fill (see Zoning Ordinance Section 21).
4.4 Standards for Floodway Conditional Uses:
A. All Uses. No fill (including fill for roads and levees), deposit, obstruction, or other use
may be allowed as a conditional use that will cause any increase in the stage of the
100-year or regional flood or cause an increase in flood damages in the reach or
reaches affected.
B. All Foodway conditional uses shall be subject to the procedures and standards
contained in Section 10.4 of this Ordinance.
C. The conditional use shall be permissible in the underlying zoning district if one exists.
D. Fill. Any permitted fill placement shall comply with the Land Reclamation standards
of Zoning Ordinance Section 16.10, and erosion control requirements in Zoning
Ordinance Section 22.
E. Storage of Materials and Equipment. Storage of other materials or equipment may be

processing of materials that are in time of flooding, flammable, explosive, or
potentially injurious to human, animal, or plant life is prohibited.
i
F. Community -wide structural works for blood control intended to remove areas from the
regulatory flood plain shall not be allowed in the floodway.
SECTION 5. FLOOD FRINGE DISTRICT (FF)
5.1 Permitted Uses: Permitted uses shall be those uses of land or structures listed as permitted or
accessory uses in the underlying zoning use district, provided that the use or structure can be
elevated on fill such that the lowest floor is at or above the regulatory flood protection elevation.
A. The finished fill elevation for structures shall be no lower than one (1) foot below the
regulatory Rood protection elevation and the fill shall extend at such elevation at least
Fifteen (15) feet beyond the outside limits of the structure erected thereon.
B. An accessory structure or use not designed for human habitation, which constitutes a
minimal investment, and which does not exceed 500 square feet at its largest projection
may be flood proofed in accordance with the FP-1 or FP-2 flood proofing
classifications in the State Building Code. As an alternative, the use or structure may
be flood proofed to the 1711-3 or FP-4 classification in the State Building Code (if a
detached garage, the garage must be used solely for parking vehicles and limited
storage). Flood proofed accessory structures must meet the following additional
standards:
(1) The structure must be adequately anchored to prevent flotation, collapse or lateral
movement of the structure and shall be designed to equalize hydrostatic flood
forces on exterior walls;
(2) Any mechanical and utility equipment in a structure must be elevated to or above
the regulatory flood protection elevation or properly flood proofed; and
(3) To allow for the equalization of hydrostatic pressure, there must be a minimum
of two "automatic" openings in the outside walls of the structure having a total
net area of not less than one square inch for every square foot of enclosed area
subject to flooding. There must be openings on at least two sides of the structure
and the bottom of all openings must be no higher than one foot above the lowest
adjacent grade to the structure. Using human intervention to open a garage door
prior to flooding will not satisfy this requirement for automatic openings
C. All permitted uses shall comply with the "Standards for all Flood Fringe Uses" listed in
Section 5.3.
52 Conditional Uses: Any structure within the district that is not elevated on fill or eligible
under Section 5.1(B) shall only be allowable as a conditional use. An application for a
conditional use shall be subject to the standards and criteria specified below and in Section 5.3.
The procedures of the Zoning Ordinance applicable to conditional use permit applications shall
apply to applications under this Section.
A. Alternative elevation methods other than the use of fill may be utilized to elevate a
structure's lowest floor above the regulatory flood protection elevation. "These
alternative methods may include the use of stilts, pilings, parallel walls, etc., or above -
grade, enclosed areas such as crawl spaces or tuck under garages. The base or floor of
an enclosed area shall be considered above -grade and not a structure's basement or
lowest floor if: 1) the enclosed area is above -grade on at least one side of the structure;
2) it is designed to internally flood and is constructed with flood resistant materials;
and 3) it is used solely for parking of vehicles, building access or storage. The above -
noted alternative elevation methods are subject to the following additional standards:
(1) Design and Certification - The structure's design and as -built condition must be
certified by a registered professional engineer or architect as being in
compliance with the general design standards of the State Building Code and,
specifically, that all electrical, heating, ventilation, plumbing and air
conditioning equipment and other service facilities must be at or above the
regulatory flood protection elevation or be designed to prevent flood water from
entering or accumulating within these components during times of flooding.
(2) Specific Standards for Above -grade, Enclosed Areas - Above -grade, fully
enclosed areas such as crawl spaces or tuck under garages must be designed to
internally flood and the design plans must stipulate:
a. A minimum area of openings in the walls where internal flooding is to be used
as a flood proofing technique. There shall be a minimum of two openings on at
least two sides of the structure and the bottom of all openings shall be no higher
than one -foot above grade. The automatic openings shall have a minimum net
area of not less than one square inch for every square foot of enclosed area
subject to flooding unless a registered professional engineer or architect
certifies that a smaller net area would suffice. The automatic openings may be
equipped with screens, louvers, valves, or other coverings or devices provided
that they permit the automatic entry and exit of flood waters without any form
of human intervention; and
b. That the enclosed area will be designed of flood resistant materials in
accordance with the FP-3 or FP-4 classifications in the State Building Code and
shall be used solely for building access, parking of vehicles or storage.
B Residential basement construction shall not be allowed below the regulatory flood
protection elevation.
C All areas of non residential structures placed below the regulatory flood protection
elevation, including basements, shall be flood proofed in accordance with the
structurally dry flood proofing classifications in the State Building Code. Structurally
dry flood proofing must meet the FP-1 or FP-2 flood proofing classification in the State
Building Code and this shall require making the structure watertight with the walls
substantially impermeable to the passage of water and with structural components
j
having the capability of resisting hydrostatic and hydrodynamic loads and the effects of
buoyancy. Structures flood proofed to the IT-3 or FP-4 classification shall not be
permitted.
5. i Standards for All Flood Fringe Uses:
A. Storage of Materials and Equipment. The storage or processing of materials that are, in
time of flooding, flammable, explosive, or potentially injurious to human, animal, or
plant life is prohibited. Storage of other materials or equipment is allowed if readily
removable from the area within the time available after a flood warning and in
accordance with a plan approved by the City Council.
B. All new principal structures must have vehicular access at or above an elevation not
more than two (2) feet below the regulatory flood protection elevation. If a variance to
this requirement is granted, the Board of Adjustment must specify limitations on the
period of use or occupancy of the structure for times of flooding and only after
determining that adequate flood warning time and local flood emergency response
procedures exist.
C. Commercial Uses - accessory land uses, such as yards, railroad tracks, and parking lots
may be at elevations lower than the regulatory flood protection elevation. [lowever. a
permit for such facilities to be used by the employees or the general public shall not be
granted in the absence of a flood warning system that provides adequate time for
evacuation if the area would be inundated to a depth and velocity such that when
multiplying the depth (in feet) times velocity (in feet per second) the product number
exceeds four (4) upon occurrence of the regional flood.
D. Manufacturing and Industrial Uses - measures shall be taken to minimize interference
with normal plant operations especially along streams having protracted flood
durations. Certain accessory land uses such as yards and parking lots may be at lower
elevations subject to requirements set out in (C) above. In considering permit
applications, due consideration shall be given to needs of an industry whose business
requires that it be located in flood plain areas.
1 Fill shall be properly compacted and the slopes shall be properly protected by the use
of riprap, vegetative cover or other acceptable method. The Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) has established criteria for removing the special flood
hazard area designation for certain structures properly elevated on fill above the 100-
year flood elevation - FEMA's requirements incorporate specific fill compaction and
side slope protection standards for multi -structure or multi -lot developments. These
standards should be investigated prior to the initiation of site preparation if a change of
special flood hazard area designation will be requested.
F. Flood plain developments shall not adversely affect the hydraulic capacity of the
channel and adjoining flood plain of any tributary watercourse or drainage system
where a floodway or other encroachment limit has not been specified on the Official
Zoning Map.
G. All manufactured homes must be securely anchored to an adequately anchored
foundation system that resists flotation, collapse and lateral movement. Methods of
anchoring may include, but are not to be limited to, use of over -the -top or frame ties to
ground anchors. This requirement is in addition to applicable state or local anchoring
requirements for resisting wind forces.
SECTION 6. 100 YEAR FLOOD ELEVATION PROCEDURES
6.1 Upon receipt of an application for a permit or other approval within a Zone A, the Zoning
Administrator will use the 1 % annual chance flood elevation for that basin that has previously
approved FEMA methods, if available. If the 1% annual
been determined in accordance with
iously determined, the applicant shall be required to
chance flood elevation has not been prev
furnish all necessary information as deemed necessary by the Zoning Administrator for the
determination for the 1% annual chance flood elevation in accordance with approved FEMA
methods.
6.2 The applicant shall be responsible to submit one copy of the above information to a
designated engineer or other expert person or agency for technical assistance in determining:
whether the proposed use is in the Floodway or Flood Fringe District and to determine the I

Regulations 1983, Parts 6120.5000 - 6120.6200 and 44 Code of Federal Regulations Part 65
shall be followed in this expert evaluation. The designated engineer or expert is strongly
encouraged to discuss the proposed technical evaluation methodology with the respective
Department of Natural Resources' Area Hydrologist prior to commencing the analysis.
6.3 Once the 1% annual chance flood elevation (100-year flood elevation) has been
determined, the Zoning Administrator shall process the permit application consistent with the
applicable provisions of Section 4 and 5 of this Ordinance.
SECTION 7. RESTRICTION ON SUBDIVIDING LAND IN FLOOD HAZARD
DISTRICTS.
7.1 All lots which include any land within the flood hazard districts shall be able to contain a
zoning -compliant building site entirely outside of the Floodway District and at or above the
regulatory flood protection elevation. All subdivisions including; property in a flood hazard
district shall have water and sewage treatment facilities that comply with the provisions of this
Ordinance and have road access both to the subdivision and to the individual building sites no
lower than two feet below the regulatory flood protection elevation. The regulatory flood
protection elevation and the required elevation of all access roads shall be clearly labeled on all
required subdivision drawings and platting documents to which this Section applies.
SECTION S. PUBLIC UTILITIES, RAILROADS, ROADS, AND BRIDGES
I. Public Utilities. All public utilities and facilities such as gas, electrical, sewer, and water
supply systems to be located in the flood plain shall be flood proofed in accordance with the
State Building Code or elevated to above the regulatory flood protection elevation.
8.2. Public Transportation Facilities. Railroad tracks, roads, and bridges proposed to be located
within the flood plain shall comply with Sections 4 and 5 of this Ordinance. Elevation to the
regulatory flood protection elevation shall be provided where failure or interruption of these
transportation facilities would result in danger to the public health or safety or where such
facilities are essential to the orderly functioning of the area. Minor or auxiliary roads or railroads
may be constructed at a lower elevation where failure or interruption of transportation services
would not endanger the public health or safety.
8.3. On -site Sewage Treatment and Water Supply Systems: On any lot containing property
included in a flood hazard district, where public utilities are not provided:
A. On -site water supply systerns must be designed to minimize or eliminate infiltration of
flood waters into the systems; and
13. New or replacement on -site sewage treatment systems must be designed to minimize or
eliminate infiltration of flood waters into the systems and discharges from the systems
into flood waters and they shall not be subject to impairment or contamination during
times of flooding.

such decision.
9.8. Flood Insurance Notice and Record Keeping. The Zoning Administrator shall notify any
applicant for a variance that: 1) The issuance of a variance to construct a structure below the
base flood level will result in increased premium rates for flood insurance up to amounts as high
as $25 for $100 of insurance coverage; and 2) construction below the 100-year or regional flood
level increases risks to life and property. Such notification shall be maintained with a record of
all variance actions. A community shall maintain a record of all variance actions, including
justification for their issuance. and report such variances issued in its annual or biennial report
submitted to the Administrator of the National Flood Insurance Program.
9.9. Additional Requirements Applicable to Nonconformities in Flood Hazard Districts.
