PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION May 26, 1998 Albertville City Hall 7:00 PM PRESENT: Chair Howard Larson, Commission Members Carolyn Bauer, Dan Robertus, and Patti Stalberger, Zoning Administrator David Lund, Deputy Zoning Administrator Linda Goeb, and City Planner Liz Stockman Chair Larson called the regular meeting of the Planning & Zoning Commission to order. Robertus made a motion to approve the agenda as presented. Stalberger seconded the motion. All voted aye. Bauer made a motion to approve the minutes of the April 14, 1998, meeting as presented. Stalberger seconded the motion. All voted aye. Chair Larson opened the public hearing on the Pat's 66 variance request. Planner Stockman explained that the variance from the setback requirements is necessary to allow the existing curb cut to legally exist at a distance of 36' from CSAH 37. The site plan previously approved for Pat's 66 stipulated that the non-conforming curb cut did not have to be moved. A variance is therefore required to make the access legally conforming. Chair Larson called for public comment. There was none. Chair Larson closed the public hearing. Robertus made a motion to adopt the Findings of Fact & Recommendation approving the request for a curb cut setback variance. Bauer seconded the motion. All voted aye. Chair Larson opened the public hearing to consider the Conditional Use Permit and three variances for Jeff and Kim Flaten. Planner Stockman explained that a Conditional Use Permit is necessary to allow a second accessory structure in the rear yard to accommodate an underground swimming pool. A seven-foot side yard variance and a five-foot rear yard variance are requested. A variance of 430 square feet from the accessory area limitation is also being requested. . . .

Stalberger made a motion to approve the Findings of Fact & Recommendation as presented, granting the CUP and the variances as described. Robertus seconded the motion. All voted aye. Chair Larson opened the public hearing to consider the Conditional Use Permit for Savitski's Car Wash. Planner Stockman explained that Don Savitski has submitted plans for construction of a two-lane automated car wash building adjacent to the existing DJ's Hardware and Heating business at the intersection of the realigned CSAH 19 and CSAH 37. The 2400 square foot building will gain access from a public road which was recently platted along with Lot 1, Block 1, Sunrise Commercial Park, and provided shared access to the existing hardware/heating operation and Sunrise Plumbing building to the east. Due to the lack of stacking space for cars in line to use the car wash, the architect and the owner agree to relocate the building further to the west on the property to allow at least one additional car to stack. Planner Stockman suggested the screening shown on the site plan is adequate but should be realigned. Chair Larson called for comment from the public. There was none. Chair Larson closed the public hearing on the CUP request for Savitski' sCar Wash. The Commission discussed the memo from Pete Carlson dated May 4, 1998, regarding the intensive water use of car washes and his suggestion that the number of car washes should be limited. Planner Stockman explained that the City cannot dictate the use of private property provided the use complies with city ordinances. Robertus made a motion to approve the Findings of Fact & Recommendation approving the CUP request for Don Savitski, contingent upon the conditions discussed being incorporated into the Findings. Bauer seconded the motion. All voted aye. . . .
