Village of Rosevil1e \ Special Meeting · Planning Commission Wednesday, ~mrch 18, 1964 The meeting was called to order by Chairman Nelson at 7:45 P.M. Members present: Nelson, Soike, Motl, Sigford, Lund, Anderson and Membrez; also Planning Consultant Dahlgren and Village Engineer Hanson, Council representative, Trustee Albert Grauel. File 64-178 Keller Corporation. Request for rezoning the west 35.27 feet of Lot 2, of Homesites Willmus Plat 2 from R.l to B-1 and also a special permit to construct a 2 story office building on this site. Some residents inquired about the front setback being 32 feet. They wanted to know if the setback could be increased to 40 feet from the property line to conform with the setback of the homes immediately to the west. The petitioner stated it would be difficult to do because of parking as shown on the plot plan. Anderson moved, Sigford seconded, that we recommend the rezoning from R-l to B.l and that a special permit be granted to construct a 2 story office building; subject, however, to the conditions as shown on the plot plan submitted dated March 18. The building size to be reduced to 48' x 72' instead of 50' x 80'. Carried unanimously. File 64-77 Ordinance No. 408 regulating the screening in Industrial areas and the repeal of Section 10.275 related to open storage uses. Tom Willmus indicated he had negotiated the sale of approximately 10 acres of land on Cleveland Avenue, just north of Highway 36, but section 10.275 in the ordinance created a situation which was unacceptable to Trailmobile, -the buyer of this tract. Specifically, Paragraph A dealing with the matter of inoperative equipment and inoperative vehicles was a cause of concern. Mr. Willmus requested some changes be made of Paragraph A to make it possible to consummate the deal with Trailermobile. Being aware of the relatively low tax benefits from the type of industry such as Trailmobile, it was felt it is in the best interests of the Village that a policy be determined as to how far east from Cleveland Avenue we will allow these types of industries to come in. The great concern was the unsightly mess it creates when trailers, trucks, etc. are allowed to remain in the open. The land between Cleveland Avenue and Fairview Avenue north of Highway No. 36 should attract industries of a higher tax base. Section 10.275 of the zoning ordinance is somewhat vague and inadequate. Nelson moved, Lund seconded, that we recommend to the Village Council that no change be made of Section 10.275. In connection with this motion, Anderson moved, Motl seconded, to amend the motion by adding . . . , 0 . at this time and subject to further study. Both motions passed by unanimous vote. File 64-77 B Evaluation of Ordinance No. 363. The Planning report by ~1idwest Planning was well received. The St. Paul building code dealing with fire limits was adopted by reference for use in Roseville. It is not feasible to continue to follow this code and it was recommended by the building inspector and the planning consultant that we adopt the Uniform Building Code recommended by the International Conference of Building Officials. Sigford moved, Anderson seconded, that we recommend to the Village Council the adoption of the Uniform Buildiny Code. Passed unanimously, Nelson also moved, Sigford seconded, that recommendations dated February, 1964, of the Midwest Planning under Items (1), (2) and (4) be accepted for approval by the Village Council. Passed unanimously.
