- 3 - T.B.10-15- Mr. Hopperstad moved we make the following change in our Platting Ordinance No. 8: Section 9.09, paragraph e. now reads" Minimum Township road construction standards must be met for one year after approval of the final plat at the subdivider's expense." Change the words "final plat" 'to read "acceptance of the roads". Seconded by Mr. Cox. Motion carried. Vie have received a letter from the city manager of Anoka complain- ing about people living in Ramsey Township who have been attend- ing classes in some of the schools their children attend in the City of Anoka but which are a part of our school district and which classes are funded by the school district and the community in which the school happens to be located. Our people would much prefer to attend these classes in their own school here in Ramsey Township but the school district has not seen fit to build such a school here until recently. When our school is finished we feel sure Ramsey residents will not be attending classes in Anoka. Horses: Mr. Ed. Albrecht lives on 151st and Willemite St. He has five acres. He wants to build a shelter for his horses and for hay storage. Mr. Albrecht suggested a committee of both people who like horses and people who dislike horses. Ham Lake has horse trails and the County is encouraging this. Mr. Pittman said this man kept his place nice and neat and took good care of his horses and he was sure any building he put up would look nice. IIe asked the Board if he could get a variance from the Zoning Ordinance in this case and said he would bring signed letters from people who lived within whatever area the Board specified from the proposed location of this horse barn stating their feel- ing about this project. Mr. Cox moved we grant Mr. Albrecht this variance providing he brings these signed permission sheets from anyone owning property 100 feet from his property. Seconded by Mr. Hopperstad. Motion carried. Mr. Gary Miller has started a pole barn 30x40 ft. on 4.7 acres at 67~3 159th Ave. N. W. He has 8 horses on this land. The Building Inspector stated that the roof on this building is sag- ging and must be straightened up so it won't fall down on the horses. This pole barn was started without Mr. Miller obtain- ing a building permit and he was told this would qualify for a fine under our ordinances. The Building Inspector said a build- ing permit could not be issued until this roof is straightened up. Mr. Cox moved we grant him a variance provided he brings the building up to the requirements of the building inspector and provides the variance as indicated. Seconded by Mr. Hopper- stad. Motion carried. Mr. James Boltin, who lives in Section 15, said real estate salesmen are telling prospective buyers that there are no re- strictions on having horses in Ramsey Township. Mr. Raudio said he thought it was the rapid growth out here that was causing this misunderstanding. Mr. Barrel Falk suggested we send a copy of our zoning ordinance to the board of realtors.
