There is a procedure in the zoning ordinance that states the following: Section 6.06, C-6 "In any case where the Planning Commission has recommended against the adoption of the proposed amendment or where a written protest against the proposed amendment signed by the owners of 20 percent • of the frontage proposed to be altered, or by the owners of 20 per- cent of the frontage immediately adjacent or across the alley there- from, or by the owners of 20 percent of the frontage directly opposite the frontage proposed to be altered, is filed with the City Clerk be- fore the adoption of any such amendment, the proposed amendment shall not be passed except by a favorable vote of two-thirds of the City Council." We have identified the location of the petitioners on the attached map. We find that none of the petitioners are-i-mmediately adjacent -or have front- age across from the proposed rezoning area. Therefore, this section would not apply. /ms Attachment 4 - a. -dot Cp J FIFTY.

CALL TO ORDER The regular meeting was called to order at 7:30 P.M. by Chairman Tracy with the following members being present: Dan Huntowrk, Don Erickson, Bob Ottee, Paul Christen and Bill Backen in addition to Chairman Tracy. Absent was Elsa Young. Also present were Administrative Assistant Gary Plotz and City Engineer/Director of Public Works Marlow Priebe. 2. MINUTES The minutes were unanimously approved on motion by Bill Backen and seconded Paul Christen. 3. PUBLIC HEARINGS a) CONSIDERATION OF REQUEST FOR PRELIMINARY PLAT SUBMITTED BY DUMAX, INC. Chairman Tracy opened the hearing at 7:30 P.M. with the reading of the public hearing notice as published in the Leader on Friday, November 10, 1978. James ^DeMeyer, on behalf of DuMax, Inc. gave the presentation with regard to the complex to be constructed and the layout for Town and Country Estates. A preliminary plat was displayed containing the lot layout and numbering for identification purposes. A floor plan of the homes was distributed for review by the Planning Commission members as well as a colored picture of the exterior appearance of the four-plex. Jim Paulsen asked about the order of things, if the plat were discussed first and then the Planned Unit Development. A question was asked with regard to the present zoning of the property. Clint Tracy replied the property involved is zoned R-2, allowing single family homes and duplexes. City Engineer Priebe read from the Zoning Ordinance with regard to exactly what is allowed in an R-2 District and pointed out a Planned Unit Development (PUD) is permitted in any zone and the area need not be rezoned. Wayne Scott (525 Larson) asked if the area is already zoned to allow a PUD, could it possibly move into that whole area. He expressed concern for a high concentration of people in a small area. Jim DeMeyer explained a PUD cannot be less than three acres and this parcel happens to be four acres. Commission member, Paul Christen, stated the development being considered tonigh has 34 units and should the neighboring property be developed it would be discussed when it formally comes before the Commission. There being no one else wishing to be heard, the hearing was closed at 8:14 P.M. on motion by Dan Huntwork, seconded by Paul Christen and carried unanimously. After further discussion, Dan Huntwork made the motion to approve the preliminary '-inning Commission 'Wember 21, 1978 -2- plat contingent upon approval of the corresponding request for Planned Unit Development. Paul Christen seconded the motion and it carried unanimously. b) CONSIDERATION OF REQUEST FOR PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT SUBMITTED BY DUMAX, INC. At 8:15 P.M., Chairman Tracy opened the hearing with the reading of the notice as it was published in the Hutchinson Leader. Jim DeMeyer explained the construction work would probably begin in the spring and be finished in two years, however, if the need is there, they would finish it sooner. Jim Paulsen (960 Goebel Circle) stated real estate values are affected by == the property around it and the area is a good location because it is close to the churches and the schools. The homes in the area are valued between - $80,000 and $90,000, therefore, he felt a lesser value home or multi -family -home - would definitely affect the value of his property. Mr. Paulsen read a quote from HUD regarding the value of property. According to a study done in Hutch- inson this area is considered low density, but not if a multi -family unit is built. Mr. Paulsen stated he was opposed to the conditional use permit for a Planned Unit Development on this property. Marlow Priebe, City Engineer, stated seven dwelling units per acre is con- sidered low density and the minimum lot size is 60..x 100. Jim DeMeyer remarked if they meet the requirements and the needs of the people, it is a sound and good concept, which would be an asset to the community. He also pointed out the concept has been reviewed and approved by the building official. He feels the public has indicated there is a need for a development like this. Jim Paulsen felt these complexes should be put by homes of a comparable price. Mr. Paulsen stated he does not object to the concept it is the location he does not approve of. Dan Huntwork stated surrounding property owners are expressing there would be an undue negative effect on adjacent property. He felt the applicant should comply with the procedures as stated on pages 70-77 in the Zoning Ordinance No. 464. Beverly Laird (980 Goebel Circle) asked since the people occupying the complexes would probably not have children, why would they need to live between the schools and in the major traffic pattern. Jim DeMeyer stated its hard to come up with the perfect spot but he feels this location is acceptable. George Totushek (515 Larson) stated he was interested in this but he wanted to know what the zoning is for the area and what protection does the public have against this. Planning Commission November 21, 1978 Jim DeMeyer explained that is the reason for the public hearing, inviting the public to come in and state their views. A question was raised as to the definition of a conditional use permit and Gary Plotz, Administrative Assistant, explained why an application for a conditional use permit was required in this case. Duane Anderson (990 Goebel Circle) inquired about the variations in the exterior appearance of the structures and wondered if this would set a pre- cedence for the adjacent property. He also remarked he would rather see this type of development than a mobile home park, for example. -3- After further discussion, Don Erickson made the motion to continue the hearing until the next regular meeting on Tuesday, December 19, 1978. Dan Huntwork seconded the motion and it carried, unanimously. c) CONSIDERATION OF REZONING PROPERTY FROM R-2 TO C-2 AS SUBMITTED BY WALTER TEICH (FOURTH AVENUE NORTHEAST) Chairman Tracy opened the hearing at 9:12 P.M. and read the public hearing notice as published in the Hutchinson Leader. Wally Teich was present and explained he wished to construct a garage similar to Wigen's and the property would be landscaped to conform to the surrounding property. The Chairman made reference to a petition that was submitted with eight different signatures. Marlow Priebe stated Lots 4, 5, part of 8, 9 and parts of 2 and 3 are owned by the City and he was wondering if the people who signed the petition have the misunderstanding their property is being rezoned. Dan Huntwork stated safety and esthetic considerations are very important in this request for rezoning. Wally Teich had talked to the Stated Highway Department about exiting off the highway and they could see no problem with removing or changing the approach. He stated he would probably be putting up a retaining wall after cutting down the land. City Engineer Priebe reminded the Commission members, rezoning is the only issue at hand and the applicant need not go into great detail as to what is being proposed for the property. A gentleman who lives on Rose Lane stated he did not oppose the request for rezoning. There being no one else wishing to be heard the hearing was adjourned at 9:35 P.M. on motion by Bob Otte and seconded by Dan Huntwork. Motion carried unanimously. After further discussion, Paul Christen made the motion to recommend approval of the request for rezoning from R-2, Multiple Family Residence District, to C-3, Central Commercial District, as submitted by Wally Teich. Bob Otte seconded the motion and it carried with one "no" vote by Dan Huntwork. Planning Commission November 21, 1978 -4- d) CONSIDERATION OF REQUEST FOR VARIANCE SUBMITTED BY MARLIN TORGERSON At 9:40 P.M. the public hearing was opened by Chairman Tracy and then he read the public hearing notice as it appeared in the Hutchinson Leader. City Engineer Marlow Priebe suggested the Planning Commission recommend approval on this particular request only because it abutts a park area which is greater than 20 acres and, therefore, we would not be setting a pre- cedence for similar requests in the future. There being no one else present wishing to be heard, the hearing was closed at 9:42 P.M. on motion by Dan Huntwork, seconded by Bill Backen and carried unanimously. After further discussion, Don Erickson made the motion to recommend approval based on the fact that the property involved is next to a 20 acre park. 4. NEW BUSINESS a) CONSIDERATION OF REQUEST FOR REZONING SUBMITTED BY NIEL AND LINDA DUESTERHOEFT A representative from Peterson -Paulson explained the request and the location of the property involved to be rezoned from R-2 to C-3. After further discussion, Bill Backen made a motion to set the public hearing for December 19, 1978. Paul Christen seconded the motion and it carried = unanimously. b) CONSIDERATION OF REQUEST FOR PRELIMINARY PLAT FOR PROPOSED SHOPPING MALL, SUBMITTED BY JOHN MCGILL OF DEVELOPERS DIVERSIFIED Mr. McGill distributed copies of the preliminary plat to the Commission members and reported he received a letter from Mr. Plotz regarding the service road and had also met with the State Highway Department. Gary Daniels and Glen Grahn from the Minn DOT Traffic Engineers in Willmar made a presentation of what they would propose for that section of Highway 415 should another shopping center be constructed in the area. They do anticipate possible future need for signals in this area but it is a lengthy planning process, getting the money set aside, taking surveys, etc. A question was raised with regard to the neccesity of these changes before the proposed shopping center goes in. Mr. Glen Grahn felt the present streets could handle the traffic for awhile. Discussion followed regarding the cost participations for the City and State. After further discussion, Dan Huntwork made the motion, seconded by Paul Christen to set the public hearing for December 19, 1978. Motion carried unanimously. c) CONSIDERATION OF REQUEST FOR APPEAL SUBMITTED BY KIM AND KATHY PIEHL 4 Planning Commission November 21, 1978 -5- Dan Huntwork referred to Page 25 of the Hutchinson Zoning Ordinance regarding the conditions for variances and suggested handling this request in terms of a variance and not preliminary plat. In reference to the Subdivision Ordinance, Marlow Priebe, noted a subdivision is needed when dividing into three lots or more. It was the consensus of the Planning Commission that staff would contact Mr. Larry Wendorff of Frank Fay Realty, representing Mr. and Mrs. Piehl and inform them to apply for a variance at such time as the property is being sold. d) CONSIDERATION OF FINAL PLAT FOR MILLER TOWNHOUSE SECOND ADDITION City Engineer Priebe distributed copies of the final plat for reviewal by Commission members and explained the request further. After further discussion, Paul Christen made the motion to recommend approval of the final plat to City Council. Don Erickson seconded the motion and it carried unanimously. 5. ADJOURNMENT There being no further business to come before the Planning Commission at this time, the meeting was adjourned at 11:10 P.M. MINUTES PARK & RECREATION BOARD MEETING DECEMBER 6TH, 1978 The Park & Recreation Board met with "Bud" Daggett, Larry Morrissette, Ward Haugen, and Don Falconer present. Also present were Fred Roberts, Assistant Director of Public Works, Administrative Assistant Gary Plotz, Recreation Director -Bruce Ericson, Judy Stoeffels of the Leader, and Grace Sanstead, Secretary. Chairman Daggett opened the meeting with the reading of the November minutes which were read and approved. Bruce presented a packet which was agreed on by Chairman Daggett and himself to cover all programs and other adgenda items clarifying these items discussed by the Board. A motion was made by Ward Haugen and seconded by Don Falconer to require adult supervision for youth under the age of 16 in open gym on Sunday nights at the High School. This was unanimously passed by the Board. Chairman Daggett suggested that Fred Roberts and Bruce Ericson stop by his office to review a catalog which may help locate some wire guards for the lights at the Old Armory. Bruce mentioned he would like to produce two brochures a year which would cover all the department activities. Because of the cost involved Mr. Morressette suggested working with the Vocational School to produce the brochures, on which he will report at the next meeting. Bruce reported that by the use of Work/Study students the department can provide supervision at each of the skating areas during the proposed times and stay within the budget. The Board suggested that if enough Work/Study students cannot be found we would have to reduce the hours at the rinks to stay within the budget. Bruce reported that through the Work/Study program we now have Building Coordinators at the Old Armory who are resposible for supervision of the building and equipment during evening and weekend hours. It was agreed to follow the program outlined for the rental of cross-country ski's. This eliminated the requirement of a deposit fee. Ward Haugen suggested that trees planted by the city should be watered by the people benefiting from the trees as it is too much for the Park Department men to c6ver, pointing out that it was practically dry for a month this past Fall. Fred Roberts and Bruce Ericson's reports were approved by the Board, Don Falconer making the motion, seconded by Larry Morressette. Glen Ray wrote a letter to the Mayor asking for eight pictures of the City which the Board assumed had been taken on the Model City Project. -Notification was recieved from the Office of -Local and . Urban Affairs regarding the 1979 Law -Con funds. None were availiable for Hutchinson in 1979. Mr. Morrissette suggested that we eliminate the reading of the minutes each meeting since by receiving the packet each month everyone would have ample time to review the minutes prior to the meeting. The meeting was adjourned at 8:30PM. The next meeting will be January 3rd at 7:OOPM. Respectfully submitted, Grace Sanstead, Secretary 7—e,- MINUTES DOWNTOWN DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT ADVISORY BOARD Tuesday, December 12, 1978 The meeting was called to order at noon by Mayor D. J. Black with the following members being present: Steve Richards, Bob Stearns, Tom O'Connell, Lloyd Torgrimson, Tom Savage, Don Abbott, Skip Quade, Jay Alrick, Becky Piehl, Ralph Westlund, Clarice Coston, and Don Glas (arrived at 1:15 P.M.) Also present were Ken Gruenhagen, and Dan Huntwork from the City Council, Consultant Clarence Simonowicz, Administrative Assistant Plotz, City Engineer Priebe, and from A & P Group were Al Albert, B.J. Smiley and Mayor Black opened the meeting by explaining the change from a Committee to an Advisory Board, therefore, an election for Chairman and Vice -Chairman should be first on the agenda. Bob Stearns made the motion to nominate Skip Quade as Chairman and close the nominations. Tom O'Connell seconded the motion and it carried unani- mously to accept Skip Quade as Chairman of the Downtown Development District Advisory Board. Lloyd Torgrimson made the motion to nominate Bob Stearns as Vice -Chairman. Jay Alrick seconded the motion and closed the nominations. The motion carried unanimously to elect Bob Stearns as Vice Chairman to the Board. Chairman Quade stated the purpose of the meeting was to come up with an agreement or solution for the Citizens Bank and their requirements. Irvin Burich, President of Citizens Bank, opened the discussion by reviewing what had transpired to date regarding their involvement with the Downtown Development. Their main concerns were with the lose of parking spaces close to the bank, the drive-in bank facility and the need for spacefor future expansion. Chairman Quade pointed out there were three possible solutions to consider: 1) keep the bank where it is, 2) relocate the downtown development, or 3) Citizens Bank would move to another location, with the National Food Store block being considered. Tom Savage suggested moving the commercial development to the National Food site rather than move the bank which could be less expensive. Chairman Quade pointed out the development should be constructed where it would benefit the existing downtown merchants the most. Mr. Albert asked what the City's next step will be, because it leaves them in "limbo" since they need plans and a location to show prospective tenants. After further discussion, Ralph Westlund made the motion to ask Clarence Simonowicz to put together alternate concepts for the location of the development to be presented at the next meeting. Bob Stearns seconded the motion and it carried unanimously. Mr. Albert continued with an update on the latest developments regarding the S & L building, the Senior Citizens High Rise, a proposal for the Medical Clinic site to be discussed on Thursday, December 14, 1978 and the progress with the Holiday Inn. There being no further business to come before the Board at this time, the meeting was adjourned at 1:25 P.M. 7— MINUI ES DOWNTOWN DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT Tuesday, December ADVISORY BOARD 21, 1978 The meeting was called to order by Chairman Skip Quade at 12:05 P.M. with the following members being present: Tom O'Connell, Don Abbott, Ralph Westlund, Lloyd Torgrimson and Marlin Torgerson in addition to Chairman Quade. Also present were Mayor Black, Administrative Assistant Plotz, Consultant Simonowicz, Attorney Schantzen, Ken Gruenhagen, City Engineer Priebe, and Al Albert and B.J. Smiley from A & P Group. The minutes from the December 12, 1978 meeting were unanimously approved on motion by Bob Stearns and seconded by Tom O'Connell. Chairman Quade called on Clarence Simonowicz to start the discussion with the three alternate proposals or concepts for the downtown development. Mr. Simonowicz reviewed the first original sketches for development. He went on to display alternate sketches for the location of the development and the considerations regarding the Citizens Bank for each. Clarence expressed which sketch he preferred (Sketch A - see attached) he felt would.be within the economic framework and best interest of the City. Mr. Albert pointed out the concept A & P would prefer, Sketch A, which he felt had a better chance of economic success and salability as far as tenants. In a meeting with Mr. Irvin Burich, President of Citizens Bank, earlier on this date, a desire to acquire the Old Armory site for future expansion was expressed. Mayor Black felt the Council would accept a reasonable offer if a comparable site was available. Clarence Simonowicz pointed out Citizens Bank's priorities.regarding streets. The discussion was opened to the floor and Chairman Quade asked for comments from those present. John Korngiebel stated he felt there were two basic problems 1) the resistance from the bank and the other stores on Main Street in losing parking on Franklin Street,and 2) it appears the site for the government center is being held "sacred". Mr. Korngiebel suggested locating the retail development on this site (Sketch B - see attached). Joe Wesley, Wesley's Pharmacy on Main Street, expressed great concern with regard to the loss of the parking on Franklin Street and its effect on his business. Mr. Wesley questioned the 3 to 1 ratio proposed for the parking lot and asked if plans, for freight deliveries had been considered. Mr. Richard Peterson also liked Sketch B and asked if the Board had considered the effect the proposed Holiday Inn would have on the downtown development. ''Jim DeMeyer stated streets provide parking for the merchants on Main Street and he felt the additional parking did not compensate for this loss. Norman Tulman asked about the direction of traffic and parking on Sketch A. Chairman Quade stated a decision on a plan has to be made soon. After further dis- cussion, Tom O'Connell made a motion to have.an economic feasibility study on the three concepts selected; Sketch A, B and the Original concept, to be presented at the next meeting. Ralph Westlund seconded the motion and it carried unanimously. There being no further business to come before the Board at this time the meeting was adjourned at 1:45 P.M.

For 4 1/2 years the weekend duty time in the Sewer and Water Department has been, by Policy, from 5:00 P.M. on Friday to 8:00 A.M. on Monday. In the Street and Park Department this has not been the case. I, therefore, request the Policy for the Street and Park be the same as for the Sewer and Water. Considering the weekend duty time period and the amount of time required for said daily duties, I recommend that the employee be paid for 6 hours per day instead of the present 5 hours. If these proposals are approved, I desire to implement same on January 1, 1979. Sincerely, CITY OF HUTCHINSON Marlow V.

Plotz, Administrative Assistant ------------------ _ ----- SUBJECT: ^—, SUBJECT: Shade Tree (Dutch Elm) Subsidy _ — — _ — . — — — _ . _ — — During the year 1977 the City and State subsidized the removal of approximately 115 trees from private property. The subsidy formula agreed upon was as follows: "Two-thirds (2/3) of the total cost for removal to a maximum of $50 per tree." The $50 payment to the landowner was $22.50 State expense and $27.50 City expense. The second year (1978) of the program has now been completed and the total number of trees that qualify are approximately 275 trees. The City Council appropriated sufficient monies in the 1978 budget to continue the 1977 formula for 275 trees at $50 per tree. We, therefore, recommend a con- tinuation of this formula in 1978. In 1978 we were fortunate to be one of six cities in Minnesota to receive the Federal (DNR) Supplemental Shade Tree Grant Program to accelerate the disease control program. These.monies are to go beyond any previous efforts or subsidy the City and State made. Therefore, there is approximately $12,000 of additional monies that were appropriated under the DNR program to increase the subsidy above the prior year. The combined impact of the City/State/Federal program is that approximately two- thirds (2/3) of the "total cost" can be reimbursed. Ims ^� 23�425262j2�9� C. R.

Black, Mayor City of Hutchinson Hutchinson, Minnesota Dear Mr. Mayor: The decision of the Downtown Development Advisory Board last Tuesday, December 12, 1978 will mean further delays in reaching a basic agreement as to the loca- tion and size of the proposed retail center. Previous discussion with A $ P Group, as well as written proposals by the City of Hutchinson or its representatives, have emphasized the importance of making progress on the retail site. Recent negotiations for the high rise site have placed progress on commercial development as a condition for going forward with the high rise site. Meanwhile, the agreement between the City of Hutchinson and A & P Group has ex- pired and no extention has been granted. The purpose of this letter is to ack- nowledge that there is no present working agreement between the A $ P Group and therCity of Hutchinson. Any further negotiations with our group will have to be on a site by site basis and pursuant to a new written understanding. Very truly yours, A $ P Group By AP Development Company David G.
