Chair Larson called the regular meeting of the Planning & Zoning Commission to

Brown made a motion to approve the minutes of the November 10, 1998, regular
meeting as presented. Stalberger seconded the motion. All voted aye.
Chair Larson opened the public hearing to consider the Preliminary Plat for
Cottages of Albertville Two.
City Planner Brixius had not prepared a formal planning report, but he had
reviewed the preliminary plat and offered his recommendations. He stated the plat is
consistent with the previous development and had not changed from the original
preliminary plat approved for the first development. This addition was excluded from the
final plat of Cottages of Albertville.
The plat consists of twenty (20) for-sale units constructed for senior citizens only
and is located directly west of Cottages of Albertville on Kalland Avenue NE.
Brixius recommended the following conditions to be listed in the Findings of Fact:
1. The developer submits grading, landscaping, and utility plans for Cottages of
Albertville Two.
2. The setbacks between Lots 2 and 3 of Block 1 be reviewed and adjusted if necessary.
3. Refuse collection will be the same as approved for the first addition.
4. The PUD agreement is amended to include this addition.
5. A property management agreement is approved.
6. The developer pays the park dedication requirements.

Steve Feneis explained that Liz Stockman was aware that the grading, utility and
landscape plans would be submitted with the final plat. Feneis will submit those
documents tomorrow.
Chair Larson asked for comments from the public.
Raymond Meyer would like to have more landscaping (trees, shrubbery, etc.)
required on this plat. He currently lives in the Cottages of Albertville Addition and feels
the plantings are inadequate.
Feneis explained that the landscaping plan for the first development had been
approved. However, he is willing to work with the planner and the tenant/owners on the
landscaping plan.
There were no other comments from the public and Chair Larson closed the public
hearing at 7 :25 PM.
Stalberger made a motion to adopt the Findings of Fact & Recommendation as
discussed, recommending the City Council grant preliminary plat approval for Cottages
of Albertville Two. Bauer seconded the motion. All voted aye.
The Commission discussed the ordinance changes recommended by Liz
Stockman. The current ordinance does not define beauty shops as including personal
services. Stockman recommends the ordinance be amended to define the services related
to and allowed within beauty parlors, such as tanning, manicures, facials and therapeutic
massages. The final question is whether massage therapists need to be licensed.
Brown made a motion recommending the City Council direct the planner to
prepare an ordinance amendment defining the services related to and allowed within
beauty parlors, including therapeutic massages. The Commission will conduct a public
hearing in January to discuss the ordinance amendment. Stalberger seconded the motion.
All voted aye.
The Commission reviewed the three applications for Robertus' position on the
Planning Commission. Robertus' term expires at the end of the year and he will be
unable to serve.
Robertus made a motion to recommend to the City Council that the Council
representative on the Planning Commission be a non-voting member and the Council

All voted aye.
Chair Larson indicated that he would like to resign his position on the
Commission due to business commitments. He will resign if the Council wishes to
appoint all three applicants to the Commission.
The Commission concurred to recommend the City Council appoint Ray Meyer
and Keith Franklin as Planning Commissioners. In the event that Larson does resign, the
third applicant, Ed Budde, could fill that position.
Bauer made a motion to adjourn at 8:10 PM. Brown seconded the motion. All
voted aye.
