<br />Mr. Murphy indicated Vince Clemmens has subdivided his property and that situation will <br />change. <br /> <br />City Attorney Goodrich determined this application could be extended for 60 days according to <br />the timeline. <br /> <br />Mayor Pro Tern Elvig indicated there does not appear to be any consensus among the Council. <br />He suggested further Council deliberation at a work session. <br /> <br />Councilmember Jeffrey suggested Councilmembers visit the property and that a larger map of <br />the zoning around the neighborhood be reviewed at the work session. <br /> <br />Mr. Wollens stated down the river there are % to 1 million dollar single family homes being built <br />across from commercial property. Commercial property is not necessarily a situation where it is <br />not beneficial to the neighborhood for screening. When he built Ramsey Bicycle he was very <br />well aware of all the screening required. A commercial use would be far more advantageous <br />here than putting in multiple housing of high density in this area. This is a pristine area with a <br />lot of investment. This property owner is stripping the equity out of all of these massive homes <br />in the area. <br /> <br />Mayor Pro Tern Elvig indicated the direction the Council is discussing is to walk the property to <br />review this further. The property has rights also. If someone were to come in to do a <br />commercial project that is less than standard, the neighborhood would also say that is stripping <br />the equity out of their homes. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Cook, seconded by Councilmember Olson, to table the request for <br />Comprehensive Plan Amendment, the request to rezone property from B-2 Business to Planned <br />Unit Development, and the request for preliminary plat and preliminary site plan review of <br />Ebony Woods; Case of DPM Investments, Inc. to a work session agenda to allow for additional <br />review of the property and zoning, and what is occurring in the area. <br /> <br />Further discussion: Councilmember Jeffrey urged the other Councilmembers to visit this <br />property and review the area. <br /> <br />Motion carried. V oting Yes: Mayor Pro Tern Elvig, Councilmembers Cook, Olson, Jeffrey, <br />Pearson, and Strommen. Voting No: None. Absent: Mayor Gamec. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec returned to the meeting at 10:32 p.m. <br /> <br />Case #12: <br /> <br />Request to Rezone Property from B-2 Business to Planned Unit Development <br />(PUD); Case of DPM Investments, Inc. <br /> <br />Tabled. <br /> <br />City Council / September 26, 2006 <br />Page 33 of 39 <br />
