Seconded by Councilman Haugan. Ayes - all.
b. Automobile Dealership - Southeast Corner of T.H. 61 and Connor Street
1. Manager Miller presented the Staff report. He stated the proposal
- 1 - 6/8
has been discussed at previous meetings. The Staff had originally
recommended denial. Staff does not feel that, at this time, it
does meet with what is the proposed land use plan. In addition to
the moratorium, Staff has doubts to the access situation. If it is
to have public access to a public street, the street in question
could not be constructed as the present Village policy does not ap-
prove the construction of a street without all utilities completely
in. Water is not available. If the access comes down Duluth Street,
it would be over a very poorly constructed street which has just a
thin oil coat. Staff does not feel the use is compatible in M -1
zoning. The main point here right now is the fact that the use it-
self is a change in land use. Staff feels this should not, due to
the moratorium, be considered until after September 1st.
2. Mr. Fred Ahlstrom spoke on behalf of the proposal. He stated
he knew nothing of the moratorium. He has gone over the access prob-
lem with the engineer's office and will construct the road on their
own property. The Highway Department has given him permission to go
over their land for access.
3. Engineer Collier stated what is proposed by Mr. Ahlstrom could
work, but he doesn't know if it would be the best; they have not
had time to really evaluate it. There would have to be work done
on Duluth Street.
4. Mayor Axdahl asked if anyone else wished to speak in regard to
the proposal.
Mr. Vern Rylander, representing Lakeview Lutheran Church, stated
he feels the moratorium should stand.
5. Councilman Haugan moved for denial of Mr. Ahlstrom's proposal
based on the moratorium.
Seconded by Mayor Axdahl. Ayes - Mayor Axdahl and Councilman
Haugan.
Nay - Councilman Greavu.
Motion carried.
6. Mr. Ahlstrom asked if there was any chance of this going through
after September.
Manager Miller stated Staff will hold the application until
after the moratorium.
2. Lot Division
a. Manager Miller stated this is a lot division for George Martins,
owner of Mr. Steak Restaurant. Approval is recommended with the follow-
ing four conditions:
1) The asphalt paving from the Mr. Steak Restaurant to T.H. 36 right-
- 2 - 6/g
of -way must be broken up.
2) The Mr. Steak parking lot must be properly marked.
