Mayor Branning asked if anyone was present to address the Council at this
time on any item not on this meeting's agenda. There was no one present
to speak.
Mayor Branning called the public hearing to order at 8:09 p.m. on the PUBLIC HEARING
application of Harry Lemieux for up to $13,000,000 of Multifamily Housing LEMIEUX HOUSING
Revenue Bonds and noted receipt of the affidavit of publication of the REVENUE BONUS
hearing notice. Mr. Asleson said the financing is for rental apartments
for the elderly and handicapped, located adjacent to the Apple Valley Health Care
Center. The financing is revenue bonds payable only from the revenues of the project
and would not be City obligations.
Mr. Lemieux reviewed the project and noted the number of units was reduced to 208,
from that approved by the Council, and one floor of the building was removed because
of concerns of neighbors in the area. Of the units, 175 will be one-bedroom, the
remainder will be two and three-bedroom and 40 units will be for the handicapped.
Under the independent living concept, all units will have kitchen facilities, but
residents must take one meal a day in the main dining room. Howard Knutson, Mr.
Lemieux's attorney, was also present.
Mr. Lemieux said because of the $10,000,000 expenditure limit imposed by the financing
used on the Health Care Center, he is not sure of a construction date. He would be
limited to an additional $3,000,000 expenditure until November 17, 1985, when the
$10,000,000 limit expires unless there is a change or an exception to the law which
he is pursuing. The Mayor asked for questions or comments from the Council and the
audience. There were none and the hearing was declared closed at 8:22 p.m.

RES. 1985-5
PRELIMINARY
APPROVAL
LEMIEUX APT.
FINANCING
Mr. Gretz reviewed the Planning Commission's report dated January 3, WHITNEY/CEDAR
1985, on a petition for a preliminary plat and building permit for a APT. BUILDING
96-unit apartment building at the northwest quadrant of Cedar Avenue
and Whitney Drive. The proposal complies with City ordinances, however, he would
recommend that the building permit not be issued until the final plat is filed be-
cause vacation of "old" Whitney Drive across the northern portion of the property
has not been completed. Either the old right-of-way must be vacated or an allowance
made for parking on it to accommodate the plan.
Councilmember Goodwin asked when financing will be considered? Mr. Gretz said the
developers have indicated they will request Multifamily Housing Revenue Bonds under
Chapter 462C, Minnesota Laws. When the request is made, a public hearing will be
scheduled before the Council.
MOTION: of Goodwin, seconded by Holton, approving the preliminary plat
of Delegard Addition and authorizing issuance of a building
permit for a 96-unit apartment building, as recommended by
the Planning Commission, subject to final plat being filed be-
fore permit is issued, and directing Staff to prepare a
development agreement for consideration. Ayes - 5 - Nays - O.
PRELIM. PLAT
& PERMIT
DELEGARD ADDN.
Mr. Gretz reviewed his memo dated January 10, 1985, and the Planning PALOMINO EAST
Commission's report dated December 19, 1984, on a petition for a pre- APARTMENT
liminary plat and building permits for two apartment buildings west of PROJECT
Pennock between Palomino Drive and Cimarron Road. The City's ordinances
would allow 88 units on the M-3 zoned property and he reviewed the calculations
used. The Planning Commission considered the overall land use in addition to the
preliminary plat at the request of adjacent residents.
Mr. Gretz noted the City Attorney has advised that the City can only deny the pro-
posal for a good reason. Concerns expressed by neighboring residents were
investigated and a good reason for denial was not able to be found based on the
requirements of Minnesota State Law and the City's subdivision regulations. Further,
action must be taken by February 16, 1985, or, under the 120-day limit for action
in State Law, the preliminary plat would automatically be approved.
Planning Commission action was on 83 units and the developer has since reduced the
request to 72 units or 16 units per acre. Sanitary sewer, with gravity flow would
require an easement to Cimarron Road over the Galles property. If the easement were
not obtained, a lift station would be necessary which the developer has said it
would install. Mr. Gretz said he would not recommend installation of a lift station
but would recommend extension of the sewer to Cimarron Road. Mayor Branning then
asked representatives of the neighborhood for their comments.

Lou Clark, 355 Cimarron Road, spoke representing the neighborhood. He said they are
not totally opposed to development and realize it has M-3 zoning. However, the build-
able area was decreased from the time the property was zoned because part of the
property was acquired for Cedar Avenue. The condemnation monetary award of the State
was based on the premise that only 33 apartment units could be constructed. Mr.
Clark said they had been advised that this information could not be considered in
the Planning Commission's decision, but he believes it is important.
Even though M-3 zoning permits 5 to 12 units per acre, the eight developments con-
structed in M-3 zones in the City are all at the low end of the density He listed
Oak Ridge Park, Cedar Knolls, Palomino Woods North and South, Greenleaf Townhouse
1st, 2nd and 3rd Additions and Townhouse 4th Addition with densities of from 4.7 to
10.4 units per acre. The proposed project is more similar in density to the M-4
areas already constructed which range from 13 to 20 units per acre.
He asked that Mr. Kleckner be asked to provide anlanalysis of the financial impact
if a smaller project is built. He further asked the Council to consider the follow-
ing points: 1. Based on information from his attorney, the Council does not have
to approve replatting of outlots. 2. Limit approval to the minimum of the maximum
number of units approved in other M-3 zones in the City; that would be 46 units.
3. Consider that they will be coming back and asking the City for tax exempt fin-
ancing and they have already been paid in condemnation for reduced value of the land.
He again said they are not opposed to development, but the density is too high.
Steve Iserman, 367 Cimarron Road, spoke representing the neighborhood. He referred
to a December 12, 1984, letter from their attorney discussing the fact that the pro-
perty is not the same now as when it was a 16-acre tract and the M-3 zoning was
considered. The reduction in size should be considered. He believes the City has
some discretion in its approval and the maximum number of units legally allowable
is not in the best interest of the City. Further, if the project is financed as the
developer intends, using housing revenue bonds, the buildings could not be converted
to condominiums. The density is not acceptable to the neighborhood.
Mr. Gretz said the Council has two options, it can concur with the Planning Commis-
sion recommendation and approve it or direct it to Staff for a finding of fact as
to why it should not be approved. Mr. Sheldon agreed and said the basis for denial
must be a good reason. If it were denied, the developer could first request a writ
of mandamus from District Court to force approval and a second action could be a
claim for damages. Mr. Sheldon said if it is referred for a finding of fact, the
records would be researched and the finding prepared for the next meeting. In re-
ference to densities in other M-3 zones, those developments were approved before
there was a 120-day time limit in State Law and, thus, there was often more time
for negotiation.
Frank Kleckner, the developer, said the site is 5.5 acres. All the discussions and
calculations appear to imply that it is only 4.5 acres due to the pond. The proper-
tyowners, Mr. Watrud and Mr. Eaton believed 102 units were appropriate for the site.
The project has been reduced to 72 units, the buildings moved further from the resi-
dential area and the parking centralized between the buildings. If a lesser density
were built, the construction would be more spread out and more vegetation destroyed,
and not be financially feasible.

MOTION: of Holton, seconded by Humphrey, approving the preliminary plat
of Palomino East and authorizing issuance of building permits
for two apartment buildings, as recommended by the Planning
Commission, except the buildings shall total not more than 72
units, and directing Staff to prepare a development agreement
for consideration.
PRELIM. PLAT
& PERMITS
PALOMINO EAST
Councilmember Holton said he agrees with Mr. Kleckner that a lesser density would
destroy more vegetation and increase costs. The previous approval for Delegard
Addition had a higher density and he does not believe there is a basis for denial.
Councilmember Savanick said it is unfortunate the State did not acquire all of the
property. This project would have functioned better on a larger site. The City
does not have to aid the project by approving the financing.
Councilmember Goodwin said even though the project meets all the legal requirements,
it does not make sense for the location and is out of character for the neighbor-
hood; that is, a three-story apartment building next to single family homes. He
believes there is a precedent in lower densities in other M-3 zones in the City
that should be considered. A smaller single building, located farther from the
north property line, would be an improvement and make more sense.
Councilmember Humphrey said the Delagard Addition apartment proposal had no objec-
tions because it is buffered from single family residences which is not the case
here. One building, located farther south, would be acceptable with proper buf-
fering. If a number for something less than 72 units were approved by the Council,
what position would the City be in? Mr. Sheldon said it would be up to the devel-
oper to determine his action based on not getting approval of what his petition
contained.
Mr. Kleckner said if approval permits the north building to be as close to the
property line as shown on the exhibits (in red on the display) it would be acceptable.
Mayor Branning said the Council has the responsibility to treat all requests that
come before it fairly. Every individual has the right to bring a request to the
Council and have it considered on fact and not arbitrarily. He asked what the
maximum number of units would be if a Court action were taken? Mr. Gretz said it
would be 88 units.
Councilmember Goodwin said other M-3 densities are at various levels, what were the
original density requests in those cases? Mayor Branning said there are many rea-
sons those developments contain the densities they do, including economic conditions
which were not conducive to apartments. Councilmember Humphrey said the reason for
other densities is mainly because initial requests were for lower densities such as
townhouses. Mr. Asleson said, gt the time, the Comprehensive Plan did not have
the legal strength it does now and, those requests usually included a rezoning
which influenced the density request.
Councilmember Humphrey asked if the proposal is approved at 72 units and is sub-
sequently reduced by the developer, does it come back to the Council? Mr. Sheldon
said not necessarily; if it is increased, yes.

Lou Clark said the zoning was originally made on 15 acres and the site has now been
reduced to 4.5 acres and it should be questioned whether it still:applies. He also
said he was a resident in 1972 and never received notice of the hearing so the
Council could question whether the zoning was done within all legal parameters. He
would be willing to meet with Mr. Kleckner and discuss the units per acre.
MOTION: of Holton, seconded by Humphrey, amending the main motion by AMEND MOTION
specifying that the minimum distance from the property line for
the north building is the red line shown on the exhibit.
Councilmember Savanick said she believes if the plans change, in any manner, from
that approved, it should come back to the Council.
Vote was taken on the motion. Ayes - 3 - Nays - 2 (Goodwin and
Savanick).
Councilmember Savanick asked how far the building would have to be moved before a
variance is needed? Mr. Gretz said he would have to measure it, but it is quite a
long distance. Mr. Kleckner asked if the buildings were moved and contained fewer
units, would the residents agree? Mr. Clark said probably yes.
Councilmember Goodwin said he refuses to believe the Council cannot use some judgment
in making a decision and does not believe it is appropriate for the area. Council-
member Holton said the Council needs to follow the law and facts. Councilmember
Savanick said when no good reason has been found for denial, the Council cannot be
arbitrary.
Mayor Branning called for a roll call vote on the original motion
as amended: Goodwin - no; Holton - yes; Branning - yes; Savanick -
yes; Humphrey - yes. Motion Passed.
MOTION: of Goodwin, seconded by Holton, authorizing issuance of a build-
ing permit for a 38,250 square foot shopping center on Lots 3
and 4, Block 1, Levine Subidivision, subject to review of de-
tailed landscape plan prior to commencement of construction, as
recommended by the Planning Commission.

Councilmember Holton questioned the traffic pattern on the site. Mr. Gretz said the
driveway would be one-way traffic, south of the building to the service drive, for
deliveries only, with a wood fence for screening. Councilmember Holton said he
would prefer that 149th Street be straight and the extra area in front of the build-
ing allowed for pedestrians. He also would prefer block enclosures for garbage
receptacle screening.
MOTION: of Holton, seconded by Humphrey, amending the motion by continu- AMEND MOTION
ing 149th Street on its present straight alignment and requiring
block enclosures for garbage receptacles. Ayes - 5 - Nays - 0.

residential land use categories (RI 0 to 3; RII 1 to 6; etc.). Councilmember Holton
