PEARSON/ELMER TOWNHOUSES REZONING ORDINANCE NO. 811-A163 ADOPTED; PRELIMINARY PLAT
APPROYED.
Mr. Hughes advised that the subject property, generally located south of Vernon
Avenue and east of Vernon Court and measuring just over two acres in area, had
been given First Reading for rezoning from R-2 Two Family Dwelling District to
PRD-2 Planned Residence District in May of 1982.

developers did not seek final approval and subsequently dropped their interest
in the property. The owners of the property now desire to resume the rezoning
process and have requested final rezoning and preliminary plat approval.
explained that their overall development plans are very similar to the earlier pre-
liminary plans and show a proposed five-unit townhouse with the two westerly units
relocated northerly on the site in order to accomodate a tennis court on the south-
erly portion of the site. The plan also would necessitate 25-foot sideyard setback
variances and a 5-foot front yard setback variance.
rezoning of the property conditioned upon final platting, with final plat approval
conditioned upon subdivision dedication based on one new unit as this property
previously paid a park dedication based on four units. Mr. Hughes stated that the
proponents were present to answer questions. Mr. Paul Elmer presented a model of
the proposed five townhouse project, stating that they felt it would complement
similar dwellings in the area, and that the site plan now being submitted showing

ORDINANCE NO. 8ii-~170 (GITTLEMAN CORPORATION/LEWIS RIDGE) G~TED SECOND READING.
Hughes presented the request of Gittleman Corporation for final rezoning from Mr.
R-1 Residential District to PRD-3 Planned Residential District for property
generally located west of Cahill Road and north of Dewey Hill Road, recalling that
and that the developer had at that time submitted preliminary plans showing a
108 unit condominium project for the site. Mr. Hughes advised that final develop-
ment plans had been reviewed by the Community Planning and Development Commission
and were approved after some modification to the landscape plans and the engineer-
ing drawings for the site.

the neighbors was the landscaping of the parking lot on the west side of the site
and asked if that concern had been addressed in the final plans. Mr. Hughes
responded that the Community Planning and Development Commission had reviewed
the landscaping on the west side of the site showing oversized evergreen trees
of 10 to 12 feet in height and has found it to be adequate but requested it be
extended down to the south side of the tennis court. Member Richards raised the
question of parkland dedication and-vreiterated his concern regarding density for
this site and the remaining undeveloped land in the area, stating that he felt
Council should look at the area as a whole when considering a developer's final
plan for a specific site. Mr. Hughes'responded that subdivision dedication is
imposed at the time of final plat approval and that frequently final plat
approval follows final zoning for these reasons, 1) the final plat must undergo
a review procedure with the county, and 2) the developer is unwilling to close
on the property unless the zoning has been granted.

in the five buildings. Mr. Hughes explained that the site plan being submitted
now illustrates considerable reduction in the amount of lot coverage due to the
substantial decrease in unit size. The revised plans were reviewed by the Com-
munity Development and Planning Commission and it was felt that the amendment to
the overall development plan was desirable, and although it would divide the parcel
into two separate developments, one oriented to the east and one to the west, the
site was capable of such a division. Concern was expressed by the Commission re-
garding the setback for the parking lot on the east side and it was requested that
the setback be increased from 15 feet to 20 feet to which the developer has agreed.

developer for the project, and Gene Nieland, one of the property owners, were
presented to answer questions. In response to Member Turner, Mr. Hughes confirmed
that the increase in the parking setback to 20 feet would still be below the
ordinance requirement of 35 feet. Mayor Courtney noted,that staff had been very
supportive of the prior proposal for the site and Mr. Hughes stated it difficult
to now see a plan that sacrifices the prior unique design of luxury class units
and which separates the site into two distinct projects which are very different

sides. William Harrison, of the Windwood Condominium Board of Directors, asked
about the price range of the units to which Mr. Klodt responded the less expensive
ones would range up from $100,000 and the luxury units on the rear portion of the
site would range up from $300,000. Mr. Harrison indicated the proposed develop-
ment would be welcomed by the residents of Windwood Condominiums and also expressed
their thanks for the sidewalk which the City has constructed on Cahill Road from
70th to 78th Street. No further discussion being heard, Member Richards' motion
for approval of the PRD-3 Planned Residential District Plan Amendment was seconded
by Member Turner.

from the northerly portion as the house originally built. Mr. Hughes explainec!
that this request was heard by the Community Development and Planning Commission
on two occasions, the first request was the subdivision of the site whereby one
lot would be retained for the existing dwelling and two new lots would be platted,
one to the north of the dwelling and one to the south. The lot to the north would
measure approximately 8,100 square feet in area and would be about 60 feet in width.
The lot to the south would measure approximately 7,500 square feet and would be
about 55 feet in width. Both lots would be below zoning ordinance requirements
in terms of lot area and lot width.

the proponent, then submitted a preliminary plat that illustrated one lot to the
south of the dwelling, that lot being increased in width from 55 feet to 62 feet
and in area from.7,500 square feet to about 8,400 square feet, both of which
continue to be below the minimum requirements of the zoning ordinance. In order

MN/DOT SPEED AUTHORIZATION FOR VERNON AVENUE DkdXJSSED.
the State of Minnesota, Department of Transportation has as of April 1, 1983,
issued a highway speed limit authorization for CSAH 158 (Vernon Avenue) as
follows: 30 MPH between the intersection with the south ramps of CSAH 62 inter-
change and the intersection with View Lane; 40 MPH between the intersection with
View Lane and intersection with Villa Way, and 30 MPH between the intersection

request and what was planned for the south lot.
request is for approval of a one lot subdivision with the new lot measuring 62 ft.
in width and 8,370 square feet in area and also approval of the variances needed
for the sub-standard lot, and that Mr. Wallace wishes to build a home for himself
on the new lot. Member Bredesen questioned if variances were granted for the new
south lot that at some future time similar variances could be requested for the
north lot. Mr. Hughes responded that part of the rational for granting the
variances for the new south lot is that the lot abutts Normandale Park which
tends to make the lot appear larger and that this would not apply to the northerly
lot.
nance which is designed to keep density requirements in line and which would
permit him to build a house for himself on the hill which overlooks the park.
Although the new lot does not meet lot width and area requirements, the fact that
it is adjacent to the park makes it unique and tends to maintain the spaciousness
and openess that is mandated by the ordinance. Mr. Wallace added that this new
house would be for his own use and he intends to sell the existing dwelling, and
that whomever purchases the existing dwelling would be most effected because of
pre-existing conditions. Member Richards asked about lot sizes in the immediate
area to which Mr. Wallace replied that in the 6400 block on Rolf Avenue there
are three 50 ft. lots, four 75 ft. lots and four 100 ft. lots in addition to
the subject property which is a 225 ft. lot and that all these lots have existing
homes. In the surrounding neighborhood there are a number of lots that do not
conform to the present zoning ordinance as to width and area. In response to.
question of Member Bredesen, Mr. Hughes said it would be difficult to deny a
replatting of the subject property into three home sites of 75 feet each, if
this were undeveloped property with no existing dwelling.
if the northerly lot could be designated as an outlot and Mr. Hughes said it
could be so designated. Robert Price, 6412 Rolf Avenue, presented photographs
of the neighborhood to illustrate the spaciousness and openness of the area in
general, admitting that there are some substandard lots, but noting that the houses
are appropriate to the size lot on which they are built providing a good balance.
He further argued that the existing dwelling on the subject property is quite
large in size and demands a large lot and that if the proposed new lot is desig-
nated buildable, the distancelfrom the existing dwelling's walkout basement to
the lot line will be only l0.feet. He also commented that he did not feel the
proponent's claim of undue hardship as stated in the Commission's meeting was
valid.
Arlene Joern, 6433 Mildred Avenue, explained that her land is directly to the west
of the subject property and is contesting the proposed subdivision and variances
for two reasons. First, it will diminish the value and,:esthetics of her land,
that when she purchased her home the southerly lot of the subject property did
not meet the zoning ordinance requirements and was an unbuildable lot and her
house had been set back to take advantage of the privacy afforded by the.unde-
veloped lot. Second, Ms. Joern stated her property would be subject to severe
drainage problems because of the substantial drop in the contour of the subject
property. John Eickman, 6408 Rolf Avenue, stated he is opposed to the proposed
subdivision and that if variances were granted for this substandard lot it would
establish a precedent in permitting lots which do not meet the zoning ordinance
requirements to be developed. F. G. Oftel, 6400 Mildred Avenue, stated that the
contour of the subject property would make it difficult to build on and wondered
about sewer hookup problems.
would be required.
show hei,was opposed to the proposed subdivision in that it would set a precedent
for furthering development of small lots and urged Council to deny approval.
Also speaking in objection to the proposed subdivision were Mrs. Marsha Perbix,
6421 Mildred Avenue, John Connelly, 6416 Mildred Avenue, and James Kurtt, 6425
Rolf Avenue. Also noted was a letter addressed to Council from Rodger Rostad,

TARGET STORES/YORKTOWN DEED'RESTRICTION SISCUSSED. Mr. Hughes presented the request
Target Stores/Yorktown for release of certain deed restrictions and amendment of
grant of easement for Lot 1, Block 2, Yorktown, so as to permit a parking area to
be constructed and maintained adjacent and contiguous to the south side of the
existing building. He recalled that Declaration of Restrictions as well as the
Grant of Easement had been executed and recorded in 1972 when the Target store
was constructed to insure setbacks of parking areas and driveways and to limit
curb cuts, and that the City had required similar restrictions and easements -
throughout the Yorktown area. Mr. Hughes explained that the request is made to
allow elimination of the parcel pickup adjacent to the space vacated by Apple-
baums, to relocate the curb cut for driveway westerly and to provide parking on
the south side of the building if needed for potential retail shops who may be
interested in leasing the vacant space. In staff's review of the plans as well
as an inspection of the site, it was concluded that the present driveway location
and alignment appears superior to that which is proposed.
are 1) sight distance is reduced for exiting vehicles relative to eastbound
Hazelton traffic, 2) traffic entering the south driveway destined to the new
parking spaces which are forced to wait for exiting vehicles, may create a backup
onto Hazelton, and 3) it seems that the new driveway location would contribute
to a speeding problem in front of the store. From a traffic circulation and
channelization standpoint, no particular advantages of the new plan could be
identified, nor could the need for additional parking spaces.
parking issue could best be evaluated in light of a specific re-use of the
Applebaum site and that Target's request is premature.
Bonneville and Darrell Creamer, representing Target Stores, and Jack Rice, who
is working to re-lease the vacant space. Mr. Bonneville explained that the request
for release of the restrictions is being made because the present arrangement for
parcel pickup at the Applebaum location is confusing and the proposed plans would
improve traffic flow on the site.
the vacated space could be leased to a business requiring that amount of space
and that it probably will be leased to four to six retail shops who would like
parking in front of their stores. Mr. Rice stated that Target Stores would like
.a concensus from Council that the deed restrictions would be amended if the-vacant
space is leased to small retail shops. Attorney Erickson advised that if the deed
restrictions are amended the City relinquishes its control over any proposed park-
ing area changes. He further indicated that the proposed resolution was very
general in nature and should be made more specific.
legal costs incurred in redrafting the resolution should be paid by Target Stores.
Member Turner questioned if small retail shops were an appropriate re-use, and if
so she would support such re-use. Mr. Hughes responsed that it would be a proper
re-use.
