Councilmember Anderson asked if there is a potential for a "monster garage" and very small <br />house. <br /> <br />Community Development Director Frolik stated the garage size could be restricted to a certain <br />percentage of the house but after Staff research, it was determined that type of restriction would <br />be difficult to clearly draft. <br /> <br />Councilmember Connolly asked if this was an experiment that has proven to not be successful. <br /> <br />Community Development Director Frolik stated that is correct. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Hendriksen and seconded by Councilmember Connolly to introduce <br />the ordinance to amend Chapter 9 (Zoning and Subdivision of Land) to eliminate size restrictions <br />on attached garages. <br /> <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Gamec, Councilmembers Hendriksen, Connolly, Anderson, <br />and Zimmerman. Voting No: None. Absent: None. <br /> <br />Case #6 <br /> <br />Adopt Ordinance Establishing Interim Uses <br /> <br />City Attorney Goodrich noted on Page 138, Subdivision 3, the language has been amended to be <br />more readable and to change the word "shall" to the word "may." <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Connolly and seconded by Councilmember Zimmerman to adopt <br />Ordinance #00-04 to amend Chapter 9 of the City Code to establish Interim Uses. <br /> <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Gamec, Councilmembers Connolly, Zimmerman, <br />Anderson, and Hendriksen. Voting No: None. Absent: None. <br /> <br />Case #7: Adopt Right-Of-Way Ordinance <br /> <br />City Engineer Jankowski explained that on January 11, 2000, an ordinance regulating the use of <br />right-of-way within the City was introduced. At that meeting, representatives for Connexus <br />Energy requested an opportunity to meet with City Staff to review a number of concerns with <br />this model ordinance. Following review of a number of proposed changes suggested by <br />Connexus and review by the City Engineer, the City Attorney, and ultimately, the Public Works <br />Committee, the amended ordinance was introduced on March 21, 2000. <br /> <br />City Attorney Goodrich stated that all of the changes were approved with the exception of a <br />question raised about the definition of "excavate." <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec stated the question was the depth of excavation. <br /> <br />City Council/April 11, 2000 <br /> Page 21 of 27 <br /> <br /> <br />
