ROSEVILLE PLANNING COMMISSION Page 6 Wednesday, August 1, 1990 Goedeke pointed out that the Planning commission was concerned about the foot print of the building from the very beginning. He stated that in the future it is important to ensure the accuracy of the surveys before the building is constructed so that this doesn't happen again. Stokes said that the lake is receding. He added that the ordinance doesn't do enough to protect the lakes. Stokes commented that this discussion is academic because in ten or so years from now the lake will have receded so far there won't be any encroachment. Roberts stated that he is concerned that an approval does set a precedent and that he is very upset with the whole situation. DeBenedet said that he agreed with everyone's concerns. He stated that he didn't like the scale of the building in the beginning. DeBenedet pointed out that a building on Hamline was granted a variance because tearing down the wall was too severe. DeBenedet stated that perhaps a contribution to the park fund would be an appropriate penalty to the developer for this violation. MOTION Berry moved and Goedeke seconded to approve the variance to the Rosewood Estates. Roll Call: Ayes: Berry, DeBenedet, Goedeke, Johnson, Stokes, wietecki Nays: Roberts Planninq File 2128 Har Mar, Inc. request for vacation of the Frontage Road lying between Midway Ford and Snelling Avenue and between Lincoln Drive and Terrace Drive. Presentation Shardlow summarized the site and explained that since there were no longer plans for a full interchange at Snelling, there was no need for the right-of-way. Shardlow stated that Snelling might be considered as an LRT corridor and this should be considered when considering the vacation. Keel stated that the exact western line has yet to be determined. However it will be determined before the vacation is granted.
