Agenda: A1, A2, A3, A4. Motions: M1, M2. Speakers: Chair, Clerk.
Hobart fire-damaged home variance
Todd and Mary Hobart sought a variance to rebuild their fire-damaged home at an estimated 104-foot setback from the centerline of Waco Street after missing the 180-day building permit application window. The planner said the request was based on practical difficulties from the fire, the existing lot, and a wetland to the rear, and said the setback fit the varied neighborhood pattern. The commission voted to approve the request with the planner's findings and conditions and send it on to the City Council.
Agenda: A5. Motions: M3. Speakers: Planner, Todd Hobart, Commission members.
Rademacher / Bill's Superette fuel facility expansion
The Rademacher family requested conditional use permits for a parking lot setback and for expansion of the Bill's Superette motor fuel facility with new diesel pumps. The commission spent most of the meeting reviewing truck circulation, driveway width and radii, Anoka County access review, possible realignment of the City parking lot access, drainage and curbing, lighting, signage, outside sales, the farmers market area, and removal and replacement of trees near the park. After discussion about whether more engineering and county information was needed first, the commission voted to recommend approval subject to the planner's findings, conditions, and the edits discussed; one audible but unidentified member opposed.
Agenda: A6. Motions: M4. Speakers: Planner, Mr. Rademacher, Commissioner Wagner, Commissioner Burrell, Robert Johnson, City attorney.
