roads. Councilmember Hendriksen stated that it would it make more sense to discuss the issues <br />with the Planning Commission. Mr. McClown replied that they did meet with the Planning <br />Commission and wanted the Council to understand what their concerns are. He stated that there <br />are no dead end signs along their streets and real estate experts have indicated that they can <br />expect a depreciation of $10,000 to $12,000 on their property values. Noise, and light concerns <br />are a quality of life issue. The residents were told that there would probably be a shopping center <br />built on that site and with a gas station it will draw a lot more people. Councilmember <br />Zimmennan replied that they need to provide for some business opportunities in that area and the <br />property has been zoned commercial for many years. Mr. McClown replied that the residents <br />object to the gas because there are already enough gas stations in the area. Mike Cofield, 5080 <br />Xkimo Court NW, Ramsey, stated that the property owner states that Xkimo is an MSA road and <br />is 44 feet wide but, by his calculations, the road is only 38 feet wide. He stated that his largest <br />complaint is that the underground gas tanks will be less than 100 feet from his property and that <br />is not acceptable to him. He suggested that they place their gas station on C.R. #22 and T.H. <br />#47. <br /> <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Gamec, Councilmembers Zimmerman, Hendriksen, <br />Connolly, and Anderson. Voting No: None. <br /> <br />Case 6: <br /> <br />Request for Final Plat Approval of Holiday Acres; Case of Phoenix <br />Enterprises and Lyndale Terminal Company <br /> <br />Community Development Director Frolik stated that Rick Foster of Phoenix Enterprises and <br />Victor Sacco of Lyndale Terminal Company is requesting final plat approval to replat Outlot A, <br />B, C and G of River's Bend 3rd Addition into two commercial lots generally located on the corner <br />of T.H. #47 and Xkimo Street. The property consists of approximately 6.80 acres and is <br />proposed to be platted into two lots. Lot 1 will be approximately 1.40 acres and Lot 2 will be <br />5.40 acres. The proposed parcel meets the half-acre minimum lot size requirement, the 100 foot <br />width and 150 foot depth requirement established in the Business District. The site will derive <br />two access points fi'om Xkimo Street. The final plat needs to be modified to dedicate access <br />rights along T.H. #47 to the State. The site will be serviced by municipal sewer and water <br />facilities. The standard drainage and utility easements are provided along the perimeters of both <br />lots. The existing 20-foot sewer and water easement on Lot 2 will also be retained. As a result <br />of a prior agreement with respect to River's Bend Park and the Rum River Bridge Corridor, this <br />particular area has been exempted fi'om any park dedication. <br /> <br />Councihnember Zimmerman inquired if the property owner would agree to dedicate the right of <br />access to the City of Ramsey on the Holiday site. <br /> <br />Rick Foster, 19230 Evan Street, Elk River, replied that they would be willing to dedicate the <br />right of access on the Holiday property. <br /> <br />Community Development Director Frolik noted that the right of access will technically be <br />dedicated to the State. <br /> <br />City Council/December 12, 2000 <br /> Page 15 of 25 <br /> <br /> <br />
