Rovegno asked if it wasn't required to have a sprinkler
^kStem in buildings such as this and what did the applicant
.jve to do to not have a sprinkler system?
■Z-
Jacobs stated that they mainly took the stage out. He
noted that the State Building Code will require it at
a certain level, but right now it does meet the code.
Callahan asked the architect e,vHctly what they were
planning to put in the church -
Johnson stated that the auditorium/gymnasium and classroom
space would be future kitchen area. Also the toilet area
now could easily be converted into locker rooms.
Planning Commission asked the applicant if they were
proposing any other public uses for the building.
John Qucun stated that they were considering a daycare
center. He stated that sprinkler would probably be
put in when water would be serviced out there. Also
right now the total parking area would be too large for
the membership, but they would pave the parking area when
the membership grew.
Mabusth asked the applicant why he wanted the City to use
the ratio of 372 seats with only a 100 members.
km stated that they wanted the auditorium.
Jacobs also noted that the ratio is determined by
square footage per person.
Mabusth asked if they were proposing any other type of
public use besides the daycare center.
Quam stated that basketball games would be held but
that this shouldn't have any affect on the parking
requirements.
Rovegno noted another location on the site plan in which
they could relocate the parking lot.
Johnson stated that the distance would create problems.
Hammerel noted for the applicant that the code requires
paving of the parking lot and that if the architect
could move the parking area over 65' or 75' then it
would be satisfactory.
Johnson stated that he would then probably create a
"ring" type parking lot.
^egno noted for the applicant why the City requires
Sifing so that they don't create any future problems.
He also asked staff if they would have to apply for
a conditional use if any changes in the structure were
ip^^made.

busth stated that any expansion would require a
conditional use permit application.
CHURCH (CONT)
Goetten stated that she felt that 54 stalls was more than
enough parking area so why require paving?
Mabusth stated that the gravel parking area also includes
the required loading berth.
Callahan stated that this proposal might excel and
grow very much but on the other hand it might go the
other way and then the City would have a non-conformin
building with no paving. If they are going to grant
a conditional use to them now they should conform to
all the codes.
v ' v::
Rovegno asked why they were assessed 1 sewer Uiilt?
Mabusth stated that the entire 50 acre parcel was asse
1 sewer unit and that the church was to receive that
unit.
Rovegno asked if it did need another sewer unit would
they have the pipe capacity to do this? Also with all
the expansion they have planned for the future, how
^yiy sewer units will they get to?V'
Mabusth stated that if Council approves an additional
unit for the church it would be taking away units from
school.
• ■
Rovegno asked if Michael Gaffron had look at the
property for septic purposes?
Mabusth stated that because of the area of the lot, Ga
was not asked to do an in depth review.
Goetten asked when the Long Lake and Medina hookup
would be completed?
Mabusth stated sometime this summer and that that
line runs right by the church.M y'\

Hammerel seconded. Vote: Ayes (4), Nays (0).
Doug DeMalignon was present. Philip Kaley of 1395 South
Brown Road was also present for this application.
Mabusth stated that she had two phone calls from
surrounding property owners and they were all in favor
the variance.C
Rovegno asked if there were no requirements for rural
areas on hardcover? He also noted that there was a
vacant lot next door.
Mabusth stated that the ordinance does not require
hardcover consideration for rural areas.
Mr. Kaley asked the applicant how he was going to get
a well truck down to the back of the property because
it would be difficult to get any kind of trucks down
there. He noted that the drainfield covers the whole
front of the lot and then turns the corner.
Mabusth noted that Gaffron*s report reported it as being
located only in the front yard and that the driveway
was very close to the septic tank. Mabusth added that- a
well rig could never get back to the existing house.
Jacobs noted that last fall he remembers going out
on an inspection where that septic tank was backing
up and that the contractors were looking for the
tanks. He noted that they did find them and pumped
them but that they still might have problems with
the septic especially if the house has not been lived
in all winter since pumped last.
(finm.lerel asked Jacobs if the drainfield would possibly
freeze?
CHURCH (CONT)

DOUG DEMALIGNON
1380 Arbor Street
Variance
#681
Jacobs stated that that was possible but the real issue
was that no one has lived in the house since it was pumped.
MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OF MAY 17, 1982 Page 5
Phil Caley noted that they have had problem in the
past with that system. He noted that the building had
^^en vacant since this last winter. He felt the
''%:ainfield was ok but that he didn't know if there
was any real septic tanks.
DEMALIGNON(CONT)
Mabusth stated that there couldn't be any other
expansion of the building if there was already
existing septic problems.
Applicant stated that he would prefer that the Planning
Commission approve the addition and then they could
take care of the septic problems.
Mabusth noted that if the Planning Commission
approved a holding tank that they would need a
variance to the code.
Rovegno asked the applicant what the extra space
would do for the applicant?
Applicant stated that right now it is too small
and that it would help the resale value.
Goetten moved to table the application of Doug
DeMalignon pending additional information from
staff regarding the septic problems.
^^llahan seconded. Vote: Ayes (4), Nays (0) .
Applicant asked the Planning Commission to reconsider
their motion because of his pressing time schedule.
He felt that the proposed addition wouldn't have
any affect on the existing septic system and that
the septic problems could always be worked out.
Planning Commission noted for the applicant that
they can not approve any addition for the building
until they have all the correct information about
the "failing" system.
Roger Wolthe represented the applicant. Roger
noted that Lyle Johnson still lives in Wisconsin
and that this house had been in his fcunily since
1901. The applicant wanted to move out here and
move back into the home that he was raised in.

Pat Walsh of 1396 Rest Point Road was present from
the audience for this application. He stated that
they were delighted that they were proposing to
improve the house but that he opposed to the side setback variance.
> ' ^ j
Roger Wolthe stated that they would add to the
upstairs a guest room and a sewing room and that the
Jpbvse would be resided too.
Pat Walsh stated that if this variance was approved
that it would block his view and his plans for future
expansion plans. He stated that he felt that the house

should have never been approved 1' from the lot line JOHNSON (CONT)
the first place and asked that the Planning Commission
make the same mistake.
Wolthe stated that the garage would be lower than
tba rest and not 1' from the lot line but 3'.
Goetten asked Woolsley why he couldn't just move it
over 7*?
Wolthe stated that this would cut down on the
required turning space.
Rovegno stated that turnaround adds a .lot to hardcover
problems. He asked if Woolsley couldn't be creative
and save on hardcover at the same time and move the
garage somewhere else.
Wolthe stated that this 2 story addition which
was added next door and that their proposal was
far less imposing.
Rovegno stated that anything they could do to
move the garage over and make Mr. Walsh happy
then he would have no problem with approving a
street setback variance and then this would
^Jfive on hardcover.
Mabusth stated that with no turnaround provided on
the site that it would, be very diffidult to reco.Tunend
approval of the variance*
Rovegno stated that the 3' setback creates the
turnaround which in turn creates much hardcover.
Mabusth stated that they could easily move the
garage over to meet the 10' setback line.
Hammerel asked what affect that would have on the
interior of the house?
Wolthe stated that he would redesign it and
why weren't these same points taken into
consideration when there neighbors were allowed
to do this which had a lot more impact on
Miis addition rather than what there were
proposing.
Goetten stated that the City doesn't want to
continue this tradition.
Hammerel moved to table Lyle Johnson's variance
jUpplication for further design changes to meet
Vhe 10' side setback.
Callahan seconded. Vote: Ayes (4), Nays (0).

plicant was present.
Rovegno questioned the applicant about the NSP wires
and advised him that this problem should be NSP's
problem and that it shouldn't be a consideration in
this application. Also he noted that NSP should have
an easement over his property for those wires.
BRUCE HAUGLID
2245 Bayview Place
Variance
#684
Mabusth stated that there was no such easement.
Applicant stated that the slashed area is a oroposed
12' X 24' deck.
Mabusth stated that a deck is considered hardcover
and that he was allowed 35% hardcover but that her
calculations did not include the deck.
m
Callahan stated that with the included deck it would
bring the total hardcover to 21% over the allowed amount.
.#
Rovegno noted that the length of the driveway was
what was really eating up all the hardcover allowance.
He noted that if they were able to move the garage
closer to the street the driveway wouldn't have
to be so long.
Jjpplicant stated that he wanted enough room to have
fB>th vehicles parallel rather than screunbling them
around.
Goetten stated that their main concern was with the
excessive hardcover proposed.
Callahan noted that the applicant wouldn't be able
to put a boat and two cars into a 1 stall garage
anyway.
m
Callahan moved to table the variance for Bruce Hauglid
to give the applicant to think over his present
application and try to revise and come back with a
different plan.
Hammerel seconded. Vote: Ayes (4), Nays (0).
