Joe Knoblauch, 13017 Maywood Lane, Hopkins, asked that the
Priorwood Townhome plat be amended. The request is to delete
numbers 4, 5, and 14 from the list of 19 contingencies which are
in reference to sidewalk ^.
Horst Graser presented the information as per memo of August 2,
1990. Mr. Graser gave a brief history of the Priorwood PUD. Tom
Steffens, the former developer, is no longer connected with this
development. Mr. Knoblauch has assumed the resronsibility of
this project and is attempting to finish the development. Mr.
Graser stated that this project has not met the standards which
were promised by the developer and the development has
deteriorated to an unkempt appearance. The City gave 23 units as
a density bonus. Staff recommends preliminary PUD approval with
the following conditions:

Addition.
2. Existing sidewalk be shown on the plat.
3. The landscape plan must be implemented as previously
submitted.

5. Any blacktop must be patched as needed.

Engineer.
The sidewalks as required in items 4, 5, and 14 should be deleted
as grade and traffic patterns have changed making sidewalks
unnecessary.

the landscaping plan was completed but the drought had taken most
of the plantings.
Comments from the Commissioners were on landscaping maintenance,
fine should be levied for non - completion of project, length of

PLANNING COMMISSION
MINUTES
AUGUST 16, 1990
The August 16, 1990, Planning Commission Meeting was called to
order by Chairman Kedrowski at 7:32 P.M. Those present were
Commissioners Loftus, Kedrowski, Roseth, and Secretary Rita
Schewe. Commissioner Wells arrived at 7:38 P.M. Director of
Planning Horst Graser arrived at 7:40 P.M. Commissioner Arnold
was absent.
ITEM I - REVIEW MINUTES OF PREVIOUS MEETING
MOTION BY LOFTUS, SECOND BY ROSETH TO APPROVE THE MINUTES AS
WRITTEN.
Vote taken signified ayes by Kedrowski, Loftus, and Roseth.
MOTION CARRIED.
Recess called at 7:35 P.M. Meeting reconvened at 7:40 P.M.
ITEM II - ROGER STEINER - SIDE AND FRONT YARD VARIANCE
Roger Steiner, 14416 Watersedge Trail, stated he is requesting a
10 foot front yard, 3.6 foot south side yard, and a 5.1 north
side variance to enlarge his residence for additional living
space. He also stated that an agreement has been reached with
the neighbor in regard to the removing and replacement of a tree
that would be affected by the construction.
Mr. Graser presented the information as per memo of August 16,
1990. The home had received 4 variances at the time of
construction in 1977. The lot is a substandard lot and does not
contain a large building envelope. Staff's recommendation is to
grant the 5.1 foot north side yard variance, the 10 foot front
yard variance is not applicable as the deck already extends out
the 10 feet in to the front yard and should be classified as a
patio, and deny the deck expansion on the south side. The
agreement with the neighbor regarling the tree is acceptable with
Staff.
Rolland Gronholz, 14412 Watersedge, verified the agreement with
Mr. Steiner on the removal and replacement of the tree in
question.
John Turner. 14432 Watersedge, commented that by granting
variances to this lot would decrease the open space for a home
built on the adjoining vacant lot.
The Commissioners supported Staff's recommendations.

MOTION BY LOFTUS, SECOND BY ROSETH, TO GRANT THE 5.1 FOOT NORTH
SIDE VARIANCE AND DENY THE 3.6 FOOT SOUTH SIDE YARD VARIANCE FOR
14416 WATERSEDGE TRAIL, RATIONALE BEING THIS WILL FOLLOW PAST
PRECEDENT FOR SUBSTANDARD LOTS AND WOULD NOT BE DETRIMENTAL TO
THE HEALTH AND WELFARE OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
Vote taken signified ayes by Loftus, Kedrowski, Wells, and
ROSeth. MOTION CARRIED.
Recess called at 7:53 P.M. Reconvened at 8:00 P.M.
ITEM III - HAROLD DELLWO - LAKESHORE VARIANCE
Harold Dellwo, 4287 Grainwood Circle N.E., is requesting a 39
foot lakeshore variance to construct a 2 bedroom rambler style
home.
Mr. Graser presented the information as per memo. The applicant
did own the adjacent lot to the east, but has deeded that to a
second party. The boathouse the applicant was living in is now
on shore and is in the process of being sold. Staff feels that
the home should be redesigned to fit in with the character of
the neighborhood and with the intent of the lakeshore management
ordinance. Therefore, Staff is recommending denial of the
variance. Mr. Dellwo's contractor, John Mahoney, should redesign
the home.
A letter from John & Marge Boyle, 4277 Grainwood Circle, was read
stating their objections to the variance. A phone call from
Robert Moeller, 4307 Grainwood Circle, who also objected, felt
the home was too close to the 904 line. A letter from the DNR
was read objecting to the variance and suggested an alternative
design.
John B. Mahoney, 17276 Murphy Lake Blvd., contractor for the
applicant, presented an alternative design that would also fit on
the lot with side yard variances. He suggested that the hearing
be continued to allow time for redesigning plans and would like
input from the Commissioners on what would be permissible.
Suggestion was made that the occupancy permit not be issued until
the boathouse and refuse on lot be removed.
Chairman Kedrowski moved to continue the hearing to September 6,
1990, at 7:35 P.M.
Discussion followed on code interpretation and the
Business /Office Park presentation.
MOTION BY LOFTUS, SECOND BY WELLS, To ADJOURN MEETING.
