PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION <br />PUBLIC HEARING <br /> CITY OF RAMSEY <br /> ANOKA COUNTY <br /> STATE OF MINNESOTA <br /> <br />The Ramsey Planning and Zoning Commission conducted a public hearing on Tuesday, <br />May 2, 1989 at the Ramsey Municipal Center, 15153 Nowthen Blvd. N.W., Ramsey, <br />Minnesota regarding Mr. Robert Wojcik and Mr. Louis Wojcik's request for a conditional <br />use permit to expand Ramsey Auto Sales. <br /> <br />Members Present: <br /> <br />Mr. Gerald Zimmerman, Chairman <br />Mr. Terry Hendriksen <br />Mr. Charles LaDue <br />Mr. Michael Terry <br /> <br />Also Present: <br /> <br />Community Development Director Mark Banwart <br />Mr. Mefland Otto/Hakanson Anderson Associates <br /> <br />Members Absent: <br /> <br />Mr. Roy Shumway <br />Mr. Jim Holm <br /> <br />CALL TO ORDER <br /> <br />Chairman Zimmerman called the public hearing to order at 7:50 p.m. <br /> <br />CITIZEN INPUT <br /> <br />Mr. Louis Wojcik was present. <br /> <br />Dr. Hartman - Stated that he is part owner of the Anoka Pet Hospital and he is concerned <br />with the proposed expansion of Ramsey Autos adjacent to his business because of the way <br />in which the Wojcik's operated their business when they were located on the east side of <br />Cty. Rd. #56. The Wojcik's have an inventory of mostly low quality cars; they are <br />encroaching on the lot for which they have not yet received approval for expansion. <br />Another problem is that during off business hours, the Wojcik block the entrances to their <br />car lot; off hours customers park in the Hwy. #10 right-of-way or the Anoka West Pet <br />Hospital parking lot and walk over to the car lot. If the expansion is allowed, the car lot <br />should be upgraded to presentable. Many of the cars on the lot are not operable. Inquired <br />as to how the Wojcik's can expand onto the third lot prior to obtaining approval. <br /> <br />Ms. Frolik explained that the Wojcik's have sold their property on the east side of Cry. Rd. <br />//56 to Holiday and it must be vacated; when approached by Louis Wojcik for a conditional <br />use permit to expand the lot on the west side of #56, she gave verbal approval to store the <br />cars on the subject lot until the City makes a determination on the request for the conditional <br />use permit. <br /> <br />Commissioner Hendriksen expressed concern with the impact to area drainage caused by <br />the additional development. <br /> <br />Planning & Zoning Public Hearing/May 2, 1989 <br /> Page 1 of 2 <br /> <br /> <br />
