Pres.ident.Postier declared the hearing officially closed. A motion was made by Larson, secon

plans; all voted in favor. '
Hearing on the application to amend the City's Official Land Use plan to designate)
the property located in Section 3, T106N, R14W (4.25 acres at the S.E. corner of 5th Street
S.W. and 20th Avenue S.W. if extended to the south) as being suited for medium density
residential use. The recommendation of the Planning & Zoning Commission was that this be
approved. ,A petition with approximately 51 signatures objecting to this was read and ordered
placed on file. Thr recommendation of the Planning Department was..that this is best suited
�I
for low density residential use. Mr. Howard Winkles of 330 - 19th Avenue S. W. .was present ;!
I.
i�
and represented the persons who live along 19th Avenue S.W. from 2nd to 5th Street S. W.;he
II
read the petition objecting to this which was signed by more than 75% of the people owning +
homes, he also read the conclusion of the Planning Department and a copy of a letter from
Mr. Dolan .in regard to traffic; he said basically the property owners in that area do not
i
care to have any development of this type. Mr. Gordon Suk, the petitioner, said they wanted
to build a condominium of about 40-50 units, they have 4.25 acres that is situated in the
back where it is nice and quite,'they have 19th Avenue, 20th Avenue, 5th Street, 2nd Street
I
and Highway 52 and 6th Street S.W. for any traffic to. -get to this particular building; the
people that would be buying these would be paying starting at about $45,000 and they would
not be adding to the school problems because they more than likely would not have children of,
school age; this land.is agriculatural now and there are no problems as far as sewer and
water, it is adjacent to 5th St. S.W. and water is in the street; he said they were planning
to build a good project that would generate more taxes than the property does at present.
Mrs. Walter Royce of 228 - 19th Avenue S.W. also spoke in opposition. There was no one else '
present wishing to be heard. President Postier declared the hearing officially closed. A
motion was then made by McNary, second by Ludowese, that the application be denied and all
voted in favor thereof. Alderman McNary said he thought the people that testified here had
pointed out pretty well the problems and he said he disagreed with the recommendation of the
Planning & Zoning Commission; he said the traffic, in spite of all the streets mentioned,
funnels down into two streets basically the5th Street intersection as it meets 17th Avenue
and as a consequence anybody that lives in this condeminium area would naturally take 19th or
20th Avenue rather than try to fight the traffic at that intersection; he said traffic counts'
had been made and it was estimated that the traffic would increase from 20 to 50%, he said he,
thought in a residential neighborhood like that to have a development come in at the far end
of it that would increase the traffic that much was not a proper thing. Alderman Larson
pointed out that this was somewhat removed from any present R-3 or R-4 zoning and it was
generally regarded as being desirable to step up from R-1 to R-2,R-3 or R�4.and the closest

oning similar to that was adjacent of the Highway which is R-3 and R-4 and is'about two blocks
why; he said he thought if good practices were followed in planning it would be better to step
it up than make an brupt change from R-1 to R-4.
Hearing on application for a variance to change the side yard requrirements on the
rty located at 1421 and 1423 Fifth Avenue N. E. The recommendation of the Planning &
g Commission that this requested variance be denied because as requested i.t would permit a
ubstantial encroachment into the required side street side yard on this corner lot thereby
locking the view to the NE. and it would also permit a building to be constructed within 9� feet
f the house immediately to the west; however, the Commission said the owner should be permitted
construct a garage on this property and the setback requirements would permit a garage to be
ilt on the north end of this building but not within 25 feet of the west lot line, this
structure has a window in the NE corner that would be blocked out by a garage but if the garage
were constructed to the west of the window this view would be'preserved and the garage would then
extend into the required side street'side yard area approximately 12 feet, the west wall of the
garage would then be about 13 feet from the west property line and within 14 feet of the north
property line and they recommend that this variance be granted. Mr. Gordon Quandt was present in
behalf of the petitioner, Verle Vrieze, and requested that the variance be granted. There'was no
one else present wishing to .be heard President Postier declared the hearing officially closed.
A motion was made by Strain, second by Willmarth, that the variance as requested be denied and all
voted in favor. A motion was then made by Ludowese, second by Strain, that the recommendation of
the Planning & Zoning Commission, part 2, be accepted and the'Cigy'Attoivley be instructed to
y�
prepare a resolution; all voted in favor. �#
Hearing on application for a variance to change the side'yard re�iiirements on property
located at 1230 West Center Street owned by D. F. Bluhm. The recommendation of the Planning &
Zoning Commission stated that the existing garage is built'to'within 3'10" of the west property
line; whichis permitted for a garage, however, the required minimum side yard for a principle use
ld be 10 feet in this°case, the owner has ample'rear-.yard for off-street parking and with the
building already existing,they•did not feel that the variance would be detrimental to any
adjoining property than at present and recommended that this variance be granted. The Planning
Department reported that this application did not meet the requirements for granting a variance
recommended that the application be denied. Mr. Duane Hoops was present in behalf of the
petitioner and urged that this variance be granted, he said he felt it was rather just granting
There was no one else present wishing to be heard. President Postier declared the hearing officially
permission for additional use of the property rather than a variance._/.A motion.was'made by
c ose .
Ludowese, second by Strain, that the variance be granted and the City Attorney be instructed to
prepare the necessary resolution; all voted in favor of the motion except Alderman Larson who
voted "nay".
