Albertville City Hall
7:00 PM
PRESENT: Chair Jim Brown, Commission Members Carolyn Bauer, Ed Budde,
Keith Franklin, Ray Meyer and Council Liaison Patti Stalberger, City Administrator
Linda Goeb, and City Planner Deb Garross
Chair Brown called the regular meeting of the Planning & Zoning Commission to
order.
Budde made a motion to approve the agenda as presented. Meyer seconded the
motion. All voted aye.
Mayer made a motion to approve the minutes of the September 14, 1999, minutes
as presented. Bauer seconded the motion. All voted aye.
Chair Brown reconvened the public hearing on the Comp Plan amendment,
. rezoning and preliminary plat request for the Albert Villas project.
Planner Garross explained that the preliminary plat has not been revised since the
last meeting so the report included in the September packet is still applicable. She
reminded the Commission that the developer is requesting a Planned Unit Development
zoning and has been advised that the underlying zone should be basically consistent with
an R-IA zone. The Commission must determine what measure of flexibility they find
acceptable for the plat.
Matt Davich and Chuck Plowe represented the development. Davich explained
that the plat is low density-l.34 units per acre. Phase I contains 42 lots.
Chair Brown indicated that he is concerned that no attempt was made to revise the
plat design even though the planning report was provided to the developer pointing out
the areas of concern.
Don Jensen, Pilot Land Development Company, stated that the location of the
sanitary sewer lift station is a major issue. Jensen wants the City to require a binding
agreement with the developer for the installation and maintenance of the lift station.
.
Garross asked the Commission for direction on several issues: Phase III concept
issue, parks, minimum buildable area for lots.

Budde, Meyer and Franklin all expressed the opinion that a contiguous park of at
least 5-10 acres in size is desirable. Franklin is not satisfied with lot widths of less than
100'. Bauer expressed the opinion that at least more lots in the plat need to meet the 100'
width requirement and that the minimum buildable area should be 12,500 square feet.
The Commission suggested the developer work with staff to revise the preliminary
plat according to the discussions.
Bauer made a motion to table further discussion on the Albert Villas project and to
continue the public hearing to the November 9th meeting. Meyer seconded the motion.
All voted aye.
Chair Brown opened the public hearing to consider zomng and subdivision
ordinance amendments.
City Administrator Goeb explained that several of the ordinances are
"housekeeping" type amendments. The zoning amendments to be considered are:
(1) Personal Services - This amendment defines the uses included under Personal
Services as acupuncture, barber shop, beauty salon, chiropractor, electrolysis,
manicure, pedicure, physical therapy, shiatsu, tanning parlor and therapeutic
massage and allows Personal Services in the B-1, Neighborhood Low Intensity
Business District.
(2) Temporary Outdoor Sales - This amendment allows temporary sales of
agricultural produce, Christmas trees, flowers and the like in any business zoning
district.
(3) Fences - This amendment defines boundary line and interior fences and allows
fences to be located on the property lines.
The subdivision ordinance amendment would require developers to install at their
cost a five foot concrete sidewalk in new developments. The Commission may want to
consider decreasing the width requirements of the residential streets from 36' to 32' in
exchange for the sidewalk.
Bauer made a motion to recommend the City Council adopt the three zoning
ordinances as presented and the subdivision ordinance requiring the developer to install
five foot sidewalks in new developments in exchange for decreasing the street width to
32'. Meyer seconded the motion. All voted aye.
