Thomas Paschke explained that the living area sits further back from the front property line than the current carports. The house was built in 1955 before the City Code. Member Bakeman agreed with Member Mulder regarding the big addition, but noted there is no option. Member Peper explained that landscaping might provide another perspective. Member Cunningham felt that the new design adds to the quality of the neighborhood. Chair Duncan explained the need to improve but explained concern with the size. Member Peper said the view of the lake is important, and with the wooded nature of the lot, few will see this.

Planning File 3359: Request by the City of Roseville to rezone the Twin Lakes Business Park from R-1, Single Family Residential, B-1, Limited Business District, B-4, Retail Office Service District, 1-1 Light Industrial, and 1-2, General Industrial to B-6, Business Park Chairman Duncan opened the hearing and requested Community Development Director Dennis Welsch provide a summary of the project report dated June 5, 2002. The City of Roseville is proposing a rezoning within the Twin Lakes Master Plan area from the existing mix of Industrial (1- 1,1-2), Business (B-4, B-1) and Residential (R-1) land use zones to Mixed Use Business Park (B-6). The rezoning would provide land use consistency within the Business Park. It will also provide consistency between the Comprehensive Land Use Plan "Mixed Use Business Park" and the City Zoning Code "B-6" zoning district. The Twin Lakes Master Plan area is generally bounded by County Road C2 on the North; Cleveland Avenue on the West; County Road C on the South; and just west of Snelling on the East.

The Twin Lakes Master Plan is consistent with commercial industrial goals and policies of the City of Roseville as described in Section 3 of the Comprehensive Plan (as revised in January, 2001). The Twin Lakes Plan includes the following:
