PUBLIC HEARINGS a) Coffee Cubby - Lori Jacobson Conditional Use Permit Vice-Chair Budde opened the public hearing to consider the Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for the Coffee Cubby at 7:09 PM. The Applicant had submitted a letter asking for an extension of time due to a lack of information available. Vice-Chair Budde continued the public hearing to December 11, 2001 Planning and Zoning Commission meeting. b) Towne Lakes - Contractor Property Developers PUD Amendment Vice-Chair Budde opened the public hearing to consider the Planned Unit Development (PUD) Amendment at 7: 11 PM. Vice-Chair Budde turned it over to City Planner Sherman to go over the background. City Planner Sherman informed the Commission that the Contractor Property Developers Company (CPDC) has submitted an application for site plan and amended PUD. The request is being made to allow the development of a utility building at the Towne Lakes site to house fiber optic equipment. The site plan submittal allows review of the proposed building and related improvement and the PUD amendment is to allow the building on the lot where the pool and related building will be built. Jay Librash, Vice-President at CDCP was present to answer any technical questions or concerns the Commission members, staff and residents may have. Vice-Chair Budde mentioned that the plans show a tower of 35' and the antenna extension. He wanted some clarification on how tall the tower was going to be. Jay explained the tower is 30' tall with a 5' extension on top of that. There was a question as to what the basic use of the antenna will be - is it for video only or will it be for cellular use in the future? The antenna would be for video use only - it would not be for cellular use or leased out in the future. CDCP is basically making it into a TV Station. It will be a company FTTH that will own it. They will be on the City Council agenda to discuss the Franchise of the ownership. A question as to who the owner would be came up. . . . CITY OF ALBERTVILLE PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION NOVEMBER 13, 2001 MINUTES PAGE 3 of 3 It will be the homeowners association that will own the lot that the building and antenna will reside on. It will be a competitive video access. They (the homeowners) will have the option to choose cable TV plan they want. Commission members were concerned with how big this video equipment was. The building seemed rather small to house the equipment. Fiber optics are rather small- some pieces are about as small as a VCR or DVD player. Will the size ofthe structure grow as the development fills up and is completed? CDCP assured the Commission that the size of the structure will not grow. Because of the fiber optics they could fit a number of them in the building. Vice-Chair Budde asked ifthere was anyone from the public to speak on this subject. There was no one in the audience. Vice-Chair Budde closed the public hearing at 7:33 p.m. Klecker made a motion to approve the PUD with the staff recommendations. (An amendment to the PUD agreement shall be drafted by the City Attorney for the City Council consideration. The amount of the exterior equipment and the location of the equipment shall be identified on the site plan and is subject to the review and approval of the City Planner. Fay seconded the motion. All voted aye. Motion carnes. 5. OTHER BUSINESS 6. ADJOURNMENT Sweeney made a motion to adjourn the meeting at 7:38 p.m. Fay seconded the motion. All voted aye.
