The rental of the units to be approximately $165 to $250. Mr. Roberts stated that he would conform with the proposed ordinance to upgrade the construction of apartment buildings. He also stated he would install underground pipes to handle the surface water, a condition which is not at all satisfactory even under the present system, he estimated the cost to be $15,000 for this installation. A great number of residents representing the Lake McCarrons Improvement Association, the PoToA. and even the Republican and D.F.Lo parties were opposed to this rezoning request. The main objections were: 1. Additional traffic in North McCarrons Boulevard endangering the school children attending the school across the street 2. Already too many apartment buildings in Precinct No.1. 3. Depreciating existing single residences within the area. A petition of 514 names in opposition was handed out to the Planning Commission. After due consideration, Linebarger moved, J. Nelson seconded, to recommend that the request be denied. Roll Call: Ayes (6) e Nays (I), Membrez voting nay. File 316e66 e Rezoning request from leI and ReI to Ie2 for Minnesota Transfer Railway, property situated between County Road Ce2 and County Road D east of Highway 8. Mr. Jensen, Engineer, and Mr. Bannon, General Manager of Minnesota Transfer, stated they had no definite plans at this time for the exact use of the property but that it would be similar to the operation already functioning very successfully at the northe west corner of the Village. There was opposition from the neighbors who claimed the Ie2 zoning is getting much too close to single residences in the area. Dr. Jackson, Mr. Merrill, an attorney, a Mr. Grunther spoke in opposition in the granting of this request. It was suggested that a leI zoning may suffice in the area closer to the residences. It was finally concluded that it would be best for Minnesota Transfer to meet with Mr. Dahlgren, Village Planner, and try to make more satisfactory adjustments in the use of the subject land, therefore, Linebarger moved, Anderson seconded, that the matter be laid over to the next regular meeting on May 4th. Roll Call: unanimous.
