P& Z-2- 8/21/78 Motion by Gerry Zimmerman, seconded by Kathy Schneider to recommend to the C~ty Council to accept the engineer report and recommendations in regard to Mognesium Street (off of Industry Blvd.) of August 17, 1978 with the exception that the cul-de-sac mentioned in #4 of engineers report be changed to a temoorary turnaround consisting of class 5 with a stable base. Motion carried 4-0. Item 4. ~ental Clinic - Dr. T. W. Anderson. (corner of 167th & #47) Mr. Pete Maatikka was present with the Engineer's report on this project, and explained that since he had only been presented with a sketch plan and ~ad not been aware of the exact area to be examined, ~is report included'information on h'north lot which'is not under consideration at this time. Consequently, item #6 and the first sentence of #8 do not refer to the property which rezoning has been requested on. Mr. Raatikka sta~.d that soils tests indicated a 13' water table, with sand soils, and a oerc ~est of 5 minutes per inch. Gerry Zimmerman stated that he would be in favor of having the front half of the prq~rty left undeveloped. ~'t was suggested that the actual structure be on the clay soils area to allowl, the sa~d area to be used for the septic system. Dr. Anderson explained that Helium Street will eventually connect with the adjacent property to allow better access to that area, and that he has filed for a oermit from the State Hwy. Dept. Rezoning to be from R-1 to B-1. Motion by Art Dunn, seconded by Gerry Zimmerman to recommend to the City Council that based on the Engineer's report of August 17~ 1978 with the exception of #6 and the first sentence of #8, rezoning of this prop- erty be allowed and that a development contract between the City and property owners be drafted limiting the remaining undeveloped portion of parcel until services are available. Motion carried 4-0. The above motion was based on the follow facts: 1.) Only land in area adjacent to existing businesses suitable for this type of facility from soil and site characteristics. 2.) Due to being located in immediate area of an east-west street, facility will effectively service large number of residents. 3.) T~is type of activity woul. d not devaluate adjacent neighborhoods, and would be an asset to community, and would provide good base tax. 4.) Turn lane and continuation of Helium Street would help eliminate undesireable traffic oatterns in this area. 5.) this type of facility would provide suitable buffer between business and residential. Mr. Schnelle suggested that the Commission examine the possiblity of a soecial zoning area for remaining undeveloped corners in this area. Item 5' Informational It was noted that each Commission member received a copy of the zoning ordinance, and Mr. Schnelle asked that it be e×amined so that he could answer any questions the members may have. Motion by Gerry Zimmerman~ seconded by Art Dunn to adjourn. Motion carried 4-0. Meeting adjourned 10:15 p.m.
