MINinrES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON JANUARY 17, 1995 {HI - #1975 Larry Anhalt - Continued) The northenr 55* of the property must be rezoned from RR-IB to B-1 consistent with directives of Sugar Woods plat. The commission discussed the need to plat the remainder of the east/west road which they advised should be platted as part of this application The road will run from the Otten property at the west and through Anhalt's property, eventually to Brown Road. The road will be installed based on demands for future development. The Sugar Woods covenants say that at the time the common corridor is to be platted that the road will be designated. It was noted that because applicant has been asked to dedicate additional right-of-way for 1995 Hwy 12 improvements, Mn/DOT has approved a single curb cut to property. The land owner, Sid Rebers, along with his legal representative, Greg Poe, were presCTt. Rebers originally owned 41 acres from Sugar Woods to Hwy 12. Poe discussed why it was his opinion that the east/west. Brown to Willow Road, connection is not functional Cliff Otten was also present. The easement goes through the Otten property into the Reber property. It was important to note that easements now exist from Willow Road over Outlot D within ^plicant's property and does not e.xtend any further into Outlot F. This would have to be asked for as part of the application process Outlot D was created as part of the future road. Any development of the property east of the Wear property would trigger construction of the road. The first is^te to be resolved would be in the proposed use permitted under the B-l code. Anhalt's business. Pro Tire and Exhaust, is a retail/installation operation involving what he called quick items, tires, shocks, struts, exhaust, alignments, and oil chaiiges. The plan is for a garage consisting of four, east facing bays and a car wash for his clientele, not for the general public. The location would provide good exposure being located on H^ 12. It should be noted that the site allows adequate room to move the proposed building to the rear as Mn/DOT is taking additional land fur right-of-way. Anhalt is asking for clarification from the Planning Commission on the zoning issue in order to proceed with site planning. Mabusth reviewed the intent of the B1 sales distnet that encourages commodities or services for the surrounding ndghborhood and may adjoin a residential area. It must be serviced by municipal water and sewer, and direct highway access is needed. The garage use is listed under the conditional use section of the code and includes repair of cars, which must be totally enclosed. The rear and front setback requirements present no problem. There are recent Mn/DOT changes to Hwy 12 that the City and Applicant will need to review for this application.
