MINUTES OF A PLANNING CC^WISSICW MEETING HELD NOVEMBER 15, 1976 - PAGE 3 <br />r <br />Higjiway Department \vill report on future roads. Mr. Muhich <br />informed the Commission that in talking with the flood <br />plain people, they told him that the flood plain had no <br />bearing on the subdivision. Their only concem was insurance <br />which would be increased in a flood plain area. Guthrie <br />moved, Hannah seconded, to table this mat" r until all <br />additional material is conplete. Motion - Ayes (5), Nays (0). <br />STEVE IVALUCK (T.M.G.) <br />(Continued) <br />#188 <br />Mr. Solie was present and submitted a letter from the <br />Pollution Control Agency. Chairwoman Dunlap read this <br />letter which, in effect, stated that they were not <br />opposed to the use of creosote ties and felt the ties <br />would not have a si^ificant impact on the surface runoff. <br />Mr. Solie also mentioned that the MOVD had mentioned that <br />these ties were non-polluting. The Planning Commission <br />was concerned about this as it has been their understanding <br />that creosote ties were polluting. In the past six months, <br />many applications requesting the use of these ties have <br />been turned down. <br />After a short discission, the Planning Commission felt <br />they needed more time to obtain additional information. <br />Hannah moved, Guthrie seconded, to table this application <br />in order to receive documentation from the engineer <br />regarding the amount of creosote in the logs and the <br />uipact this would have on Lake Minnetonka and any other <br />documentation that is appropriate and- make a decision at <br />that time. Motion - Ayes (5), Nays (0). <br />The Zoning Administrator stated that the applicant is <br />requesting a variance for the proposed addition to the <br />existing dwelling. The location does not appear to <br />conflict with any neighbor’s view of the lake. There <br />is no other land available and addition would be an <br />in^rovement to the property. <br />Hannah moved, Woolley seconded, that this variance be <br />approved given the fact of the confi^ration of the lot, <br />does not interfere with neighbo'^'s view of lake and no <br />other land is available. Motion - Ayes (5), Nays (0). <br />ROBERT SOLIE <br />1085 NORTH ARM DRIVE <br />CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT <br />GRADING AND FILLING <br />(#190) <br />DAVID BUTLER <br />4685 NORTH SHORE DRIVE <br />VARIANCE - LOT AREA § <br />LOT WIDTH <br />(#194) <br />The Zoning Administrator informed the Planning Comnission <br />that the applicant had telephoned earlier explaining that <br />he could not attend the meeting until 10:00. Mr. <br />Ortenblad is requesting variances for construction of a <br />new dwelling on this lot. Two concerned neighbors were <br />present and the Planning Commission heard their comments <br />at this time. Audrey Santella, neighbor to the south, <br />objected to the proposed location of this hoase vdiich <br />would extend closer to the lake than her home and felt <br />would obstruct their view. City Ordinance states that <br />houses should be in line and her feeling was that this <br />should be followed. She was also concerned about the <br />WARREN ORTENBLAD <br />2799 CASCO POINT ROAD <br />VARIANCE - LOT WIDTH, <br />SIDE SETBACK, LAKESHORE <br />SETBACK COMPARED TO <br />ADJOINING nVELLINGS <br />(#195)
