. Planning Office Hours September 17, 1986 � Pa e 2 9 • 3. Cam bell 484-4638 Carol and Tom Campbell live at 976 Transit, on the south side opposite Chatsworth Street. On September 9, 1985, the City Council approved a minor variance for an addition to their residence to accommodate a garage expansion from one car ta two car. The conditions under which the minor variance was gr.anted remain the same, although the construction has not yet begun. They were unaware that the variance permit expired after six months. 4. Thompson, 332-1234 Milo Thompson, Architect, was in with one of his staff (John Akiba) and Jim Johnston, representing thf� developer of the Rosegointe project on Hamline Avenue. We discussed a pre- liminary plat f4r wh�ch they are applying, which divides the property into three parcels; Ph�se 1, �rtase 2, and propex�y to be dedicated to the City for ��,rk purpos�s (the pond to the north). Phase 1 will include most of the new structures, anc3 landscaping for th� bulk of the site. Phase 2 wiZl include the remodeling of the older structure and the connecting link. This staging of development can best be handl�d as a Plann�d Unit Developm�nt, fileci in conjunction with the � preliminary plat. There is also some question as to the exact boundaries on the west side of the site whQre the praperty is contiguous to the �ity's public park. Ther�: may be a'�no man's land" in thi� area not coWered by the legal description in the de�d £rom Carboni ta the Rosepointe Corporation, They will be pursuin� settlement �f this westerly boundary �perhaps thrvugh court ac�ion). 5. K�ersten, 37�-1770 Loren. Kjersten, representing Comm�rs-Klodt, was in to discuss a progasal, for a ground sign at the northeast corner of Patton Road anci County Road Co The sigr� would be 3' x 10', mounted on � sloped pedestal. The prcabl.em is that due to the existenc� of a poncYxng area at this northeast corner, the sign would have to be placed clos�r to the riqht�of-way tha� the forty feet x�c�uired. Being a low ground sign, i felt that this would an appro- priate solution. I suc�gested they determine precisely the ponding location rel�vant to �he proposed sign, and prepare the appropriate drawings and application for variance. 6. Kra�kr 339-4200 Ron Kran}c called from the airport the morning of September � 17, asking if he could bXing a couple of interesteci investors from Omaha and Detroit. One is a developer, and the other is a major re�ailer, and are a.nterested in a Roseville location.
