MINUTES OF A REGULAR MEETING OF THE ADVISORY PLANNING COMMITTEE
TOUN OF EAGANi DAKOTA COUNTY$ IMMSOTA
December 18, 1969
A regular meeting of the Advisory Planning Committee of the Town of
Eagan, Dakota County, Minnesota was held on December 18, 1969 at 7:30 o'clock
P.M. at the Town Hall. Those present were Polzin, Diffley, Marble, Sperling,
and Rydrych. The minutes the the previous meeting were approved as mailed.
A representative of 11idwest Phoning and Research, Inc. and represent -
atives of Garden City Construction Company, in addition to Martin Shields appeared
on behalf of their application to rezone approximately 26 acres at the SII corner
of #26 and #31, from A, Agricultural to R-6 and C-1. Approximately 5.75 acres
are proposed for C-1 and about 20 acres for R-6 with 2 acres of that portion
intended for dedication for perk purposes. It was intended that there be 380
multiple dwelling unite with about one-half being one -bedroom units. It was
noted that in the event of rezoning that the developer would have to comply with
all ordinances in effect at the time of actual development. A number of neighbor-
ing property owners appeared in objection to the application and further Mr. John
.syser and Mrs. Barbara Schmidt presented a petition signed by approximately 340
property owners in the area objecting to the application. Objections arose
relative to the increase in traffic on Highway 131 and Lone Oak Road; incompat-
ibility with the school and R-1 adjacent to the proposed development; the number
of school -aged children projected to be increased by the development; and spot
zoning. Member Sperling read comments and objections that he had t�o the develop-
ment as follows. He indicated that he did not consider the follecuing important
to the Issue:
1. The probable acquaetion that the Board of Supervisors or Planning
C =ittee would be denying free enterprise if the request is turned down. He
stated that Bloomington was 5,000 multiple unite constructed where as the Town
-1-
0
0
of Sagan has rezoned for approximately 15,UUJ units. We have demonstrated
acceptance of free enterprise.
2. That taxes paid on the land are a burden. This land as to his
understanding qualified under Green Acres. Its appraisal high value is $1,900
per acre. Under Green Acres, taxes are paid on a $135 valuation per acre. If
sold for any reason, back taxes would be retroactive for three years plus the yeav
of ®le paid only on the high value - $1,900 per acre. A fair profit would certa1,111"
be realized at the purported $10,000 per acre.
Things he did consider important to the issue:
1. Petition of the people, both immediately adjacent and surrounding.
2. The existence of commercial zoning across the road thereby
obviating the corner store argument.
3. The proximity to the school and the increased traffic therefrom.
4. Desirability of acquiring this land for school or park purposes
not excluding the process of condemnation if necessary.
5. The lack of specific plans and building dates thereby entitling
certain members of the Planning Committee to question the ultimate use of this
'Property and to suspect the question of speculation which some members feel is
detrimental to the development of this community.
6. Most importantly, the precedent set by this rezoning. He felt the
Committee had endeavered to confine R-6 to buffer areas in Ragan. Without exceptic-a.
it can be shown that indeed a plan has been carried out in R-6 development. He
believed this constituted legal evidence of a well defined intent on the part of
these members.
Sperling moved to postpone action for one month to permit the Board
of Supervisors, the Planning Committee and the Park Board to review in more detail
the proposed park sites and the park proposals. The motion died for lack of
second. Upon motion by Marble, seconded by Sperling, it was recommended that the
-2.
0
0
application be denied. Yes votes: Sperling, Marble, Rydrych, Polzin; No:
Diffley.
The application of Arnold Carlson to rezone certain lots in Evergreen
Park Addition on Pilot Knob Road was stricken for lack of appearance.
The appearance of Mr. Michaelson of Bud Johnson, Inc, concerning a
proposed mobile home park West of Sibley Terminal Industrial Park continued from
the October APC meeting was stricken for lack of appearance.
Mr. Dan Gustafson and Mr. Pete Parranto appeared on behalf of the
application of Sheridan Investment Company to rezone 25.3 acres in the 19 -It of
Section 30 consisting of the Bolkcom property from A, Agricultural to R-6,
Multiple. It was noted that the area consisted of 25.3 acres to be called Cedar
Ridge Apartments, adjacent to new Cedar Avenue, e.g. Highway #36. Highway #36 is
intended to be a 300 foot right of way according to the proposed Highway Depart-
ment plan consisting of 5.79 acres. There would be a balance of 19.24 acres with
232 multiple units consisting of 17.26 per acre. After discussion, Diffley
moved to recommend approval, seconded by Rydrych. Those voting yes were Diffley
and Polzin; No; Marble and Sperling; obstain, Rydrych.
An agiication on behalf of the B -E -B Pollution Control District for
special use permit for the sewage disposal plant facility on B -E -B property near
Nichols Station was next presented. The Town Attorney recommended that the special
use permit be granted rather that to rezone to Public Facilities and it was noted
that the B -E -B Board had approved the application for submission. Upon:motion
by Sperling, seconded by Marble, it was RESOLVED that the application be reccm-
mended for approval.
The Committee then discussed a proposed amendment to the zoning ordinance
which would require a notice be sent to property owners within 200 feet'of the
area to be rezoned when a revision from zoning from other than Agricultural zoning
is requested. It was discussed that 'the applicant be requested to bear the cost
-3-

possibly on the basis of an application lump eum fee. Upon notion by Sperling,
seconded by Rydrych, it was RESOLVED that the Planning Committee recommend to the
Town Board that an amendment to the zoning ordinance be adopted providing for
notification to all adjacent property owners according to the best available recordu.,
The consensus of the Planning Committee was that the cost be borne by the developer.
There were no dissenting votes.
There was'come discussion by the Planning Committee concerning the
possibility of granting rezoning applications on a conditional basis which could
provide that in the event that no development is commenced within a specified perioc
of years that the zoning then revert back to its original zoning with the possibil-
ity of a hearing being held at that time. The Town Attorney was requested to review
the legal implications of this type of amendment to the zoning ordinance.
The Planning Committee further discussed proposed density requirements
and suggested a joint Planning Committee and Board of Supervisors meeting for
January 13th at 7:30 P.M. at the Town Hall, at which time area developer's will
he invited to attend.

PLANNINt COMMISSION SPECIAL MELTING MINUTES
DATE: 10 June 1968
SUBJECT: Discussion of Land -Use Plan
ATTENDEES: Ii. Polzin, T. Diffley, J. Marble, R. Sperling, T. Wachler,
W;' Rydrych
6n. 10 June 1966, a special meeting of the Eagan Planning Commission was held
.to discuss the desireability of developing a Land -Use Plan, and what form
'such a plan would take. ,The following conclusions were reached:
1) A Land -Use Plan should be developed.
2) The Land -Use Plan would be developed by'the Planning Commission for
use by the Planning Commission. The plan would not be for general
distribution.
3) Initially the Land -Use Plan would call out limited categories of
zoning - such as:
o Residential
.o Industrial
o Commercial
o Agricultural
9) To designate an area on the Land -Use Plan would require an affirma-
tive vote by 5 of the 7 Planning Commission members.
5) The purpose and intent of the Land -Use Plan can be generally stated
as follows:
o The policy of the Planning Commission shall be to encourage
future zoning in the patterns indicated on the Land -Use Plan.
Zoning contrary to that indicated on the Land -Use Plan must
be shown to be a definite asset to Eagan Township.
o It. is expected that the Land -Use Plan will not be a "static"
-document - but will change or be added to as conditions in
Eagan Township and surrounding areas change. It is intended
to show the Planning Commissions viewpoint on "Best Use" of
the un -zoned (or zoned agricultural )areas.
o All areas zoned "agricultural" are expected to be upgraded
to a different category eventually. Those areas listed as
"agricultural" on the Land -Use Plan, are considered equally
suitable for more than one of the other specified categories
(Residential, comnerieial or industrial) or potential use
is "indeterminate".

MINUTES OF A REGULAR MEETING OF THE ADVISORY PLANNING COMMITTEE
TOUN OF EAGANi DAKOTA COUNTY$ IMMSOTA
December 18, 1969
A regular meeting of the Advisory Planning Committee of the Town of
Eagan, Dakota County, Minnesota was held on December 18, 1969 at 7:30 o'clock
P.M. at the Town Hall. Those present were Polzin, Diffley, Marble, Sperling,
and Rydrych. The minutes the the previous meeting were approved as mailed.
A representative of 11idwest Phoning and Research, Inc. and represent -
atives of Garden City Construction Company, in addition to Martin Shields appeared
on behalf of their application to rezone approximately 26 acres at the SII corner
of #26 and #31, from A, Agricultural to R-6 and C-1. Approximately 5.75 acres
are proposed for C-1 and about 20 acres for R-6 with 2 acres of that portion
intended for dedication for perk purposes. It was intended that there be 380
multiple dwelling unite with about one-half being one -bedroom units. It was
noted that in the event of rezoning that the developer would have to comply with
all ordinances in effect at the time of actual development. A number of neighbor-
ing property owners appeared in objection to the application and further Mr. John
.syser and Mrs. Barbara Schmidt presented a petition signed by approximately 340
property owners in the area objecting to the application. Objections arose
relative to the increase in traffic on Highway 131 and Lone Oak Road; incompat-
ibility with the school and R-1 adjacent to the proposed development; the number
of school -aged children projected to be increased by the development; and spot
zoning. Member Sperling read comments and objections that he had t�o the develop-
ment as follows. He indicated that he did not consider the follecuing important
to the Issue:
1. The probable acquaetion that the Board of Supervisors or Planning
C =ittee would be denying free enterprise if the request is turned down. He
stated that Bloomington was 5,000 multiple unite constructed where as the Town
-1-
0
0
of Sagan has rezoned for approximately 15,UUJ units. We have demonstrated
acceptance of free enterprise.
2. That taxes paid on the land are a burden. This land as to his
understanding qualified under Green Acres. Its appraisal high value is $1,900
per acre. Under Green Acres, taxes are paid on a $135 valuation per acre. If
sold for any reason, back taxes would be retroactive for three years plus the yeav
of ®le paid only on the high value - $1,900 per acre. A fair profit would certa1,111"
be realized at the purported $10,000 per acre.
Things he did consider important to the issue:
1. Petition of the people, both immediately adjacent and surrounding.
2. The existence of commercial zoning across the road thereby
obviating the corner store argument.
3. The proximity to the school and the increased traffic therefrom.
4. Desirability of acquiring this land for school or park purposes
not excluding the process of condemnation if necessary.
5. The lack of specific plans and building dates thereby entitling
certain members of the Planning Committee to question the ultimate use of this
'Property and to suspect the question of speculation which some members feel is
detrimental to the development of this community.
6. Most importantly, the precedent set by this rezoning. He felt the
Committee had endeavered to confine R-6 to buffer areas in Ragan. Without exceptic-a.
it can be shown that indeed a plan has been carried out in R-6 development. He
believed this constituted legal evidence of a well defined intent on the part of
these members.
Sperling moved to postpone action for one month to permit the Board
of Supervisors, the Planning Committee and the Park Board to review in more detail
the proposed park sites and the park proposals. The motion died for lack of
second. Upon motion by Marble, seconded by Sperling, it was recommended that the
-2.

application be denied. Yes votes: Sperling, Marble, Rydrych, Polzin; No:
Diffley.
The application of Arnold Carlson to rezone certain lots in Evergreen
Park Addition on Pilot Knob Road was stricken for lack of appearance.
The appearance of Mr. Michaelson of Bud Johnson, Inc, concerning a
proposed mobile home park West of Sibley Terminal Industrial Park continued from
the October APC meeting was stricken for lack of appearance.
Mr. Dan Gustafson and Mr. Pete Parranto appeared on behalf of the
application of Sheridan Investment Company to rezone 25.3 acres in the 19 -It of
Section 30 consisting of the Bolkcom property from A, Agricultural to R-6,
Multiple. It was noted that the area consisted of 25.3 acres to be called Cedar
Ridge Apartments, adjacent to new Cedar Avenue, e.g. Highway #36. Highway #36 is
intended to be a 300 foot right of way according to the proposed Highway Depart-
ment plan consisting of 5.79 acres. There would be a balance of 19.24 acres with
232 multiple units consisting of 17.26 per acre. After discussion, Diffley
moved to recommend approval, seconded by Rydrych. Those voting yes were Diffley
and Polzin; No; Marble and Sperling; obstain, Rydrych.
An agiication on behalf of the B -E -B Pollution Control District for
special use permit for the sewage disposal plant facility on B -E -B property near
Nichols Station was next presented. The Town Attorney recommended that the special
use permit be granted rather that to rezone to Public Facilities and it was noted
that the B -E -B Board had approved the application for submission. Upon:motion
by Sperling, seconded by Marble, it was RESOLVED that the application be reccm-
mended for approval.
The Committee then discussed a proposed amendment to the zoning ordinance
which would require a notice be sent to property owners within 200 feet'of the
area to be rezoned when a revision from zoning from other than Agricultural zoning
is requested. It was discussed that 'the applicant be requested to bear the cost

possibly on the basis of an application lump eum fee. Upon notion by Sperling,
seconded by Rydrych, it was RESOLVED that the Planning Committee recommend to the
Town Board that an amendment to the zoning ordinance be adopted providing for
notification to all adjacent property owners according to the best available recordu.,
The consensus of the Planning Committee was that the cost be borne by the developer.
There were no dissenting votes.
There was'come discussion by the Planning Committee concerning the
possibility of granting rezoning applications on a conditional basis which could
provide that in the event that no development is commenced within a specified perioc
of years that the zoning then revert back to its original zoning with the possibil-
ity of a hearing being held at that time. The Town Attorney was requested to review
the legal implications of this type of amendment to the zoning ordinance.
The Planning Committee further discussed proposed density requirements
and suggested a joint Planning Committee and Board of Supervisors meeting for
January 13th at 7:30 P.M. at the Town Hall, at which time area developer's will
he invited to attend.
Upon motion the meeting adjourned.

PLANNINt COMMISSION SPECIAL MELTING MINUTES
DATE: 10 June 1968
SUBJECT: Discussion of Land -Use Plan
ATTENDEES: Ii. Polzin, T. Diffley, J. Marble, R. Sperling, T. Wachler,
W;' Rydrych
6n. 10 June 1966, a special meeting of the Eagan Planning Commission was held
.to discuss the desireability of developing a Land -Use Plan, and what form
'such a plan would take. ,The following conclusions were reached:
1) A Land -Use Plan should be developed.
2) The Land -Use Plan would be developed by'the Planning Commission for
use by the Planning Commission. The plan would not be for general
distribution.
3) Initially the Land -Use Plan would call out limited categories of
zoning - such as:
o Residential
.o Industrial
o Commercial
o Agricultural
9) To designate an area on the Land -Use Plan would require an affirma-
tive vote by 5 of the 7 Planning Commission members.
5) The purpose and intent of the Land -Use Plan can be generally stated
as follows:
o The policy of the Planning Commission shall be to encourage
future zoning in the patterns indicated on the Land -Use Plan.
Zoning contrary to that indicated on the Land -Use Plan must
be shown to be a definite asset to Eagan Township.
o It. is expected that the Land -Use Plan will not be a "static"
-document - but will change or be added to as conditions in
Eagan Township and surrounding areas change. It is intended
to show the Planning Commissions viewpoint on "Best Use" of
the un -zoned (or zoned agricultural )areas.
o All areas zoned "agricultural" are expected to be upgraded
to a different category eventually. Those areas listed as
"agricultural" on the Land -Use Plan, are considered equally
suitable for more than one of the other specified categories
(Residential, comnerieial or industrial) or potential use
is "indeterminate".
