Zone Change Request by the City of Elk River/Public Hearing
9.
Zone Change Request by MonOT/Public Hearing
Items 7. 8. and 9 are all relating to connecting property and. therefore.
were discussed as one item.
Chairman Wilson noted that there has been a request for zone change for
three parcels of property owned by the City of Elk River. MnDOT and
Richard Cherrier. He stated the request is to zone the property to a
C-3a zone from a R-1b zone. It was noted that some of this property had
been in front of the Council at a previous date for a zone change and was
denied.
Zack Johnson. City Planner. presented the Commission with a memorandum
and briefly highlighted the memo. Mr. Johnson indicated he is
recommending denial of the zone change request for the following reasons:
1. Land Use Map illustrates this area as medium density residential.
2. There are currently 420-460 acres of highway commercial zoned land
of which only 30-45% is currently developed.
3. Spot Zoning.
4. The Growth Management Plan Task Force will be reviewing this and
submitting a recommendation for the City as a whole.
Mr. Richard Cherrier stated he owns 22 acres of the land in question. He
indicated that Highway commercial would be much better than multi-family
residential because multi-family does not sell. He also noted that
concerning the Commission's concern regarding signage on the highway;
this is a result of a poor sign ordinance not the zoning ordinance. Mr.
Cherrier stated that if the City expects to build a tax base. they must
allow development in the City that will sell.

Chairman Wilson opened the public hearing.
Mr. Dan Debalt questioned why the City and Highway Department was
requesting the rezoning.
Chairman Wilson closed the public hearing.
Commissioner Fuchs stated that Deerfield Third was approved as
residential and felt the people moving into that area would be very
disappointed if this adjoining property were changed to highway
commercial. He further stated the City should look at all the City
property before a decision is made to rezone property to commercial and
further stated he agreed with Zack Johnson's recommendation.
Commissioner Fuchs stated that if this property should be rezoned to
commercial, he would want to see a service road constructed for the
commercial traffic because residential roads should not be considered
commercial. He noted the service road should be immediately parallel to
Highway 169. He also noted there should be a buffer between the
commercial and residential property and that he would not recognize the
street as a buffer zone. He stated that to rezone this parcel of
property would be strip zoning and that he would rather see this corridor
remain uncluttered. Commissioner Fuchs concluded by stating that he
would prefer to see this item tabled until such time that the City can
take an overall look at the entire area.
Commissioner Kropuenske indicated that he fully agreed with Commissioner
Fuchs' recommendation. He further indicated that a decision on the zone
change should not be made until the Growth Management Plan Task Force has
a chance to review the entire zoning situation and come back with the
final report to the City Council.

.
.
.
Page 9
Planning Commission Minutes
April 28, 1987
1. Layout for the future connection to Troy Street without a variance
pushes that easement to the west which crowds the building site that
would be on Lot 15, making that site less desireable.
2. The location of the easement would access the land to the south of
Fairhaven Rills in a less desirable area, a swamp, if the easement is
pushed to the west.
3. Without a variance, the future easement to Troy Street takes an
unnecessary bend.
4. The same number of lots in Fairhaven Rills could be accomplished
without a variance, but the above mentioned three items would make
the lots less desirable.
COMMISSIONER KROPUENSKE MOVED TO RECOMMEND TO THE CITY COUNCIL, APPROVAL
OF THE LOT SIZE VARIANCE REQUESTED BY FAIRHAVEN HILLS PLAT BECAUSE OF THE
ABOVE MENTIONED REASONS. COMMISSIONER MORTON SECONDED THE MOTION. THE
MOTION PASSED 7-0.

purchased the land with this existing situation. Re noted that the 2 1/2
acre parcel was split in 1984. Mr. Rohlf indicated that this was either
illegally recorded or there may have been staff error in the recording of
the lot. Mr. Rohlf indicated it was no fault of Ms. Raburn's that she
has a lot with no frontage; it was a situation already created.
Chairman Wilson opened the public hearing. No one appeared for or
against the matter. Chairman Wilson closed the public hearing.

signage on the Highway 169 side of the building.

for a similiar type sign because of the possibility of creating a driving
hazard.

and meet the deadline.

He stated he felt the theater should be able to
Commissioners Temple and Kropuenske both indicated they would like to see
the theater advertise the theater on the highway side and to advertise
the movies on the other side of the building. Chairman Wilson stated he
felt a sign advertising the movies on the Highway 169 side of the
building would be better than on the Freeport Avenue side.
COMMISSIONER KROPUENSKE MOVED TO RECOMMEND TO THE CITY COUNCIL DENIAL OF
THE SIGN REQUEST FOR THE THEATER BASED ON THE EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF SIGNAGE
REQUESTED AND THE DISTRACTION TO TRAFFIC ON HIGHWAY 169. COMMISSIONER
MORTON SECONDED THE MOTION. THE MOTION PASSED 6-1. CHAIRMAN WILSON
VOTED AGAINST THE MOTION.
Discussion took place regarding the type and size of signage the Planning
Commission would recommend to the City Council for the theater.
It was the consensus of the Planning Commission to allow 500 square feet
of signage for the theater to be split between the rear and front of the
building with no changeable copy to be allowed on the 169 side of the
building and further that the lights be turned off 15 minutes after the
last show has started.

mall expansion tenants should be following; the new sign ordinance
regulations or the signage allowed according to the sign resolution for
the original mall tenants.
