Roseville Planning Commission Minutes November 5, 1986 Page 2 Waldron proceeded to read the proposed resolution the City Council will consider November 10, relating to the moratorium. Dick Peterson, representing Mar-Len, stated that he was shocked that this moratorium was occurring, and he did not expect it. He was concerned that the moratorium's legal impact needed to be considered. Peterson stated that the area was rezoned B-4, and that this item should have been studied at a previous date. Peterson stated that the moratorium should not preclude review of the Mar-Len site plan. Bill Elfholz stated he believes that since the area is zoned B-4, this particular development is workable. If the City wants to buy the building from him for the same price, within the same time- frame, he would support the moratorium. Peterson again reiterated that he was concerned about receiving due process with respect to the moratorium. James Bartlett, the new owner of the Ruan parcel, also stated his concern that he could not support the moratorium. He also stated his concern with respect to notification of the owners. Wiski stated that when the B-4 was first used, the City was told that the trucking areas would stay for a significant period of time, which they now are not. He also pointed out the findings of the consultant will require additional review and analysis by the City. Wiski stated that in the past, a moratorium has been used by the City; thus the precedent exists. Wi ski also pointed out that in this case, the proposed development does not meet the compatibility of use and intensity planned for the area. Maschka asked as to whether a hearing for a moritorium was required. Mr. Dahlgren stated the last time a moratorium was put into effect it was decided in one night, and discussion subsequently took place with the owners. Dahlgren pointed out that the development along 35W is working well to the south, in light of the proposed Rosewood project. He pointed out that the companies to the north initially told him that they were set, and didn't envision any changes; therefore, in light of the fact that these unanticipated changes are indeed occurring, the City needs more time to consider what should be done in the northern area of the Tax Increment District. Maschka stated his owners did not sell the existing capital ular item, he stated concerns that under the new tax law if the this year, they would not get the benefit of gains law. However, outside of that partic- that the moritorium is probably appropriate. Dahlgren for that problems relating stated that at the staff level, many times the concerns area have been pointed out to Mr. Vanasse, and that these were pointed out at every single planning meeting to the development.
