ITEM 9-2-66 PUBLIC HEARINGS
1. Bren, Dvorak, Kusisto, Greguson, Wright, continued from 8-16-66.
Mr. Goddard appeared before the Planning and Zoning Commission and requested
that the hearing be continued until the lst meeting of November as he had been
hired by the petitioners to re-study their proposals and come up with some
plans for the area.
Mr. Hagstrom who represents some of the people in the area who are 14MPosed to
commercially rezoning the area agreed that it would be well to continue as he
could not counter an argument he had not heard.
A motion was then made by Anthony Hirt, seconded by Albert Picha to continue
the hearing until -NNovember 1, 1966 and request the petitioners to present
Mr. Hagstrom and the Board with the background information on their request
one week prior to the meeting.
The motion carried.
2. Hepp-Peterson-Grill property. Notes on this are in Hearing File #2.
There was much discussion on the matter but it was felt that the area to be
zoned was larder then was required for the commercial operation and with the
recommendation of Mr. Hawkes that only the area actually needed for the
commercial part be considered for rezoning at this time.
Mr. Hepp and Mr. Peterson and Mr. Grill could not present to the Planning and
Zoning Commission the exact specifications as to the area required.
A motion was made by David Dale, seconded by Cecil Cruse to continue the hearing
until September 20 at which time Mr. Hepp and Mr. Peterson is to have a layout
of the plan showing site plan and then a Building Inspector's report on the
church building which they propose moving on the property.
The motion carried.
3. Greg Redpath continued from 8-16-66.
A report from the Park and Recreation Commission had not been received prior
to the meeting. Mrs. Blacklock who is secretary of the Commission was in
PLANNING 9 ZONING COP•MISSION - 2 6 September, 1966
attendance in the audience and was asked if a report was available yet. She
replied that the member of the Commission who was asked to make the report had
not submitted a report to her but she felt that a report could be had by the
next meeting.
A motion was then made by Cecil Cruse, seconded by Dr. John Wright to continue
the hearing until September 20th.
The motion carried.
4. Warden Property represented by Mr. McDonald and Mr. Morehouse and the
balance of the M-2 area as ordered by the Planning and Zoning Commission.
Notes on this are in File No. 21.
It was generally agreed as it had been previously recommended by the Planning
and Zoning Commission that the balance of the Warden property be rezoned to SI
as it now was an incompatible piece of property in an area where it was located
with it's present zoning.
Dr. Wright made a motion, seconded by Albert Picha to recommend rezoning the
Warden property to SI.
The motion carried.
Dr. Wright then made a second motion to recommend rezoning the balance of the
M-2 area under consideration to SI. There was no second to this motion and it
was withdrawn by Dr. John Wright.
It was felt that possibly some of the M-2 area should not be rezoned to SI but
should be rezoned either to residential or commercial to be compatible with
the surrounding area.
The motion was made by David Dale, seconded by Albert Picha to continue the
hearing on the balance of the area to the September 20th meeting with a written
report to be received by the members of the Planning and Zoning Commission from
Nidwest Planner's, Mr. James Hawkes, prior to the meeting.
The motion carried.
ITEM 9-3-66 STREET NAMES
The Board felt that to make a decision on whether boulevards should be East or
West, North or South should be in line with the surrounding areas. Mr. James
Hawkes stated that the MPC people (Metropolitan Planning Commission) had made a
study on street names and addresses, etc. , and prehaps they could give us some
help on this matter.
Mr. James Hawkes stated he would contact the MPC and have them contact the Clerk
with the idea of setting a special meeting sometime in September. It was re-
commended that the nights of the 16th, 21st, 22nd, or 23rd were opened and could
be considered for the meeting.
A motion was then made by Dr. John Wright, seconded by Cecil Cruse to request a
PLANNING 6 ZONING COMMISSION - 3 6 September, 1966
special meeting with a representative from the Metropolitan Planning Commission
on one of the open dates suggested.
The motion carried.
ITEM 9-4-66 WARREN PETERSON-BRUCE HEPP
This item was handled in the Hearing on the Hepp-Peterson-Grill property and
no action was taken on it at this time.
n,
ig ITEM 7-6-66 JOE RUZIC SANITARY LAND FILL ON THE WILLARD ANDERSON PROPERTY
Mr. Ruzic presented a film showing how the sanitary land fill is operated.
This film was made down in Atlanta, Georgia. He also had the director of Public
Health from the Village of Edina present some information to the Board on Sani-
tary Land Fills and requested that the Board do something about his request to
have a sanitary land fill on the property. He figured that by putting in a sani-
tary land fill, he then could develope property to a higher use than it could be
developed under it's present condition.
The Board had had some Ordinances which they had gone over. There are some
Ordinances and information on land fills which they have not had a chance to
Cz look at. They felt that as yet it was too early to make a recommendation to the
Council on this particular aspect. They felt that some more work should be done
in the Planning and Zoning level before the Planning and Zoning Commission made
a recommendation to the Council on a particular site for a land fill in Eden
Prairie.
A motion was then made by Anthony Hirt, seconded by David Dale to have the
Chairman appoint two members of the Planning and Zoning Commission to a Committee
to work with Mr. James Hawkes of Midwest Planning, drafting a preliminary disposal
Ordinance for study by the Planning and Zoning Commission.
The motion carried.
ITEM 7-7-66 M.F. GRILL DRY DUMP ON HIS PROPERTY
The parties involved who had looked at the property felt again that Mr. Grill
had an ideal site but because of the fact there was no Ordinance for the Village
that would spell out horn any operation whether it be a land fill, dry dump, a
burning operation or what have you in the Village could be accepted, it would
be necessary to first have the Ordinance.
No action was taken on Mr. Grill's request until the Zoning Commission has made
a recommendation to the Council on a Ordinance and the Council has approved the
Ordinance. At that time action as regarding a particular site for any type of
dump would be considered.
ITEM 8-4-66 GARRISON-JONES PETITION FOR REZONING
The parties had not prepared anything to present to the Commission 'and were .
not present.
No action was taken on it.

PLANNING 6 ZONING COMMISSION - 4 6 September, 1966
ITEM 9-4-66 CYRIL S. BUNDY REQUEST TO MOVE A HOUSE INTO THE VILLAGE
Mr. Wood stated that the Building Inspector had inspected the house and found
it did not satisfactorily meet the conditions of a house to be moved in. The
request is to move the house in on Franlo Road in the area by Mr. Garrison's,
Mr. Susemihl's and Mrs. Blanchard's homes.
A motion was made by David Dale, seconded by Albert Picha to continue this sub-
ject until September 20, 1966 pending a written report from the Building Inspector
as to the home in question being able to meet the building code of Eden Prairie
if it was moved into the Village.
The motion carried.
ITEM 9-5-66 CSAH 18 & 62 6 U.S. 169-212 INTERCHANGE
Mr. Quentin Wood presented to the Planning and Zoning Commission the request from
the County Highway Department to eliminate the off-ramp of new 169 to old 169
as the Bureau of Public Roads had turned down this portion of the plan and
requested that the State and County eliminate this particular ramp from the plan.
It was felt that possibly from the elimination of this off-ramp that additional
highway work could be done in the Village of Eden Prairie. Mr. Quentin Wood was
to :investigate to see if this was possible.
• No action was taken at this time.
ITEM 7-3-66 MOBILE HOME & TRAILER COURTS
Members of the Planning and Zoning Commission presented the reports which they
had ready and read them. Mr. Albert Picha did not have his reports ready. Mr.
Arthur Miller was still short one. Mr. Ralph Nesbitt was not present to present
his reports.
A motion was then made by Dr. John Wright, seconded by David Dale to continue
this action until the next meeting when we would have all the reports from the
absent members.
The motion carried.
ITEM 9-6-66 VILLAGE PLANNING
Mayor Osterholt presented information on Village Planning to the Planning and
Zoning Commission and asked them to make a recommendation on one of three sit-
uations.
The things to be considered would be:
1. Federal paid for 701 program for Village Planning.
2. The Village to finance their own formal planning to provide planning.
3. A do-nothing type of planning.
PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION - 5 6 September, 1966
There was much discussion on the various aspects how a planning program
could be financed.
A motion was made by Anthony Hirt, seconded by Dr. John Wright to recommend to
the Council that the Village utilize the 701 type plan. Upon a roll call vote?
Mr. David Dale voted no, Mr. Cecil Cruse voted no, Dr. John Wright voted no,
Mr. Anthony Hirt voted yes, Mr. Arthur Miller voted yes.
The motion was defeated.
The parties in voting no felt that the Community should not accept Federal money
for any services which they felt were for the Community and should be paid for by
the Community.
Because of the fact that two members of the Planning and Zoning Commission were
absent at the time this vote was taken and the fact something should be forwarded
to the Council so that they can act, Mr. David Dale made a motion, seconded by
Dr. John Wright to have the Clerk poll the Planning and Zoning Commission, the
members present and also contact the ones who were absent, asking for their opinion,
either for or against, 701, local planning or no planning.
The Clerk polled the members present.
Mr. David Dale voted for local finance planning.
Mr. Cecil Cruse voted for local finance planning.
Mr. Anthony Hirt was in favor of the 701 plan.
Dr. John Wright said that he was for planning but not prepared to favor the 701
at this time.
Mr. Arthur Miller stated that he was in favor of the 701 planning.
Mr. Ralph Nesbitt was contacted and he stated that he is in favor of the 701 plan.
Mr. Albert Picha is for local finance. (He was contacted by phone)
The meeting adjourned at 1:15 A.M.
