u �J .. r - . . � -�-. .... j � � I t - March 2�, 1983 -2- �� 7) : Carlson - 633-8171. Gai�y Carlson of Carlson Ec{uipment Company, was in to discuss a proposed V-shaped pylon sign to be cons�ructed on their property, south af County Road C. Because the sign is V-sllaped, �the 100 sq, ft, allowed for one side of a pylon sign would not be adequate. In other words, the V-shaped sign � wa:� too large to comply with the ordinance. We dis�ussed the advisability of a normal pylon sign (double-faced) , suggesting that it wauld do an adec�uate j ob of iclentification, would look better, and cost 1ess. They are going t� pursue : this concept. I indicated some locations around the Twin Cities where he could see exampies of signs of this size, set back the distance he would have it fr.om C, so he can better understand the visivility that would be accrued in his ca�e. Solber� - 770-3711. Sharon Solberg, Gary McIntyre, and A1 Bies wer.e in to �3iscuss the passible platting and sale of two lots north of tlle church that Mueller-Bies converted to a funeral parlor. These lots have been planned for in the past, and were at one time approved as a preliminary plat, buz not as were platted some ten ysars ago. It would appear these lots could be platted at this time, inasmuch as the public street frontage serving the lots has already been developed. Rax - 881-5072. Dave Bluestone and Bi11 Orrand from the Rax organization, were in to discuss the expansion of the restaurant by adding a glass-enc�.osed solarium on the south side. We reviewed the plans and fpt.md them ta be on conformance with City requirements. It would appear the solarium will be a very attractive add�.tion, and present no problems in ierms of location, size, or parking ta serve the addi�ional seating capacity. There are 88 seats now; 22 woul d be added, making a total of 110. They have 7I parki.ng spaces, far exceeding the minimum requi rements . 9) Johnson - 292-4400. Morrie Johnson lives at 3124 North Hamline (Arden Hills) . He is a member of the committee appointed by the School Board to review the future of Lake Johanna School. He was in to discuss the b�.ckgr4und as to Roseville's interest relatirig to the park system and the park development program around Langdon Lake. His committee proposes �o make recommendations to the Scliool Board regarding the use of the school, and he very much �.ppreciated the City°s cc�ntribution to the backgrot.md information, and the City's current praposals. He indicated the City may be invited to attend a meeting with the committee to offer :�urther input in the near future. 10) Wallis - 647-5251. Jim Wa'llis lives on Ireile Couri, and was in to discuss the possible expansion of his garage, wliich would have involved a minor variance on t1�.e side lot line. 6Ne discussed optional ways of solving this problem. He may reconsider tlle solution originally contemplat�d. 11) Hymanii - 331-1341. Gene Petrowski, Pete Jone�, and Connor Sclimid, attorney, were in 1:o discu� � the potentiaZ acquisition of portions of the Hymann Motor Freight land as pa.rt of the Langdon Park addition. VJe reviewed the background to the development and expansion of the Hymann Motor Fxeight si�e, rela�;ing to the rezoning �nd the issuance of the special use permit uack in 1�7b. A�r. Petrowski indicated they don't want to sell the land to tlie City, because it would require additional parking spacss being located further from tlle terminal, thus requi ring more time for personnel �to move tractnrs and trailers to and from the terminal. They
