This matter was heard before the Current Planning & Zoning Committee at a public • hearing on May 3, 1979. The applicant was present. A letter and a petition with 11 signatures were received in Qpposition. Major:concerns were increased density and traffic congestion. No letter or input was received from District 5 on this matter. It was noted during the course of the hearing that the building plan � submitted could not be constructed without variance, since it exceeded the number of allowable rooms relative to site size. Staff recorrnnended approval of the rezoning request and the Current Planning & Zoning Commit�ee, on a 5 to 0 vote, concurred with the staff recommendation based on the fact that the proposed developme�it is not inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan and the �ending District 5 Plan, and that rezoning the site would likely help in revitalizing the neighborhood. On May 11 . 1979 the Planning Corr�nission unanimously confirmed the recorr�nendation of the Current Planning & Zoning Corr�nittee on a 17 to 0 vote. . The City Council has scheduled a public hearing on this matter. for July '24, 1979.

ON MAY 3, 1979 PRESEPJT: Ms. Karns, Messrs. Fitigibbon, Levy, Pangal and Bryan of the Current Planning & Zoning Corr�nitte; h1r. Robert Straughn, Assistant City Attorney; hlmes. �1cNeally and Fox and P�r. Jung of the Planning Staff. ABSENT: McGinley, Summers The meeting was chaired by Mr. James Bryan, the Chairman. ROGER JESKA (#8429) : An application to rezone from RT-1 (1 & 2 Family) to RT-2 (Townhouse) in order to construct a 4-plex on the north side of Jenks between l�Jestminster & Arkwright. The applicant was present. There was no opposition present at the hearing. . �4r. Jung showed slides of the site and reviewed his staff report with a recommendation of approval for the rezoning request. Mr. Levy asked if any information had been received by the district council on this matter and P•1r. Jung said the district had been notified and he had telephoned to see if they had . an official position on the rezoning, but had been told "most likely not"; � Mr. Jung explained that the house would be 50 ft. wide and the lot 75 ft. wide, so there would be room to take care of the 3 to 4 ft. slope of the site. He presented a site plan to the Committee and noted a letter in opposition received from Mrs. Hilda C. Strand of 398 Jenks St. He also noted receipt of a petition against the proposal with 11 signatures. Mr. Straughn advised that three single faciily houses could be built on three individual lots or one duplex, because they are lots of r•ecord, if they meet conditians of the Zoning Ordinance. He said two duplexes could not be built on this site. �•1r. Pangal raised the question of spot zoning and asked P1r. Jung's opinion. htr. Jung said there is no definition of spot zoning in th� ordinance and that in this case it would be a matter of interpretation. Mr. Straughn said the term spot zoning is usually used in cases when the court wants to overturn something, and the court generally looks to 1 ) conformance with the Comprehensive Plan (district plan), 2) �vhether it is a small or large parcel , and 3) whether the � zoning was done for the benefit of the community as a whole rather than for the benefit of the individual developer. Roger Jeska, the applicant, 1329 E. Co. Rd. C, said the letter of opposition from 398 Jenks Street was from an individual with a day care center. There being no further public testimony, P1r. Bryan closed the public hearing. � In response to a question from P1s. Karns as to whether District 5 has a district plan, Mr. � Pangal informed her that they did not. P�r. Pangal then moved to recommend approval of the rezoning request based on the fact that the deveJ�opr��ent of these lots would benefit the neighborhood, because no one is going to come in and build three single famiay homes on those lots. He said the rezoning would help revitalize the neighborhood to some extent and also the district. He said his motion took into effect the fact that District 5 had been notified and had not responded. � � - ��'��r� ROGER JESKA NQNUTES�� PAGE TWO P1r. Fitzgibbon said that he wondered how much harm was done in defining the decline or revitalization of neighborhoods, with the present transitional character of neighborhoods_ P4r. Levy said that compared with the word "blighted" , P1r. Fitzgibbons' comment was soft. He did not think this could be called spot zoning and the fact that the neighborhood is transitional does not mean anything. Mr. Straughn said the developer has a few problems: The parcels are less than 10,000 sq. ft. and this should be brought to the Board of Zoning Appeals. The number of rooms should be 8 instead of 10. P1r. Pangal 's motion to recommend approval was seconded by h1r. Levy and passed on a 5 to Q roll call vote. • Submitted by: Approved by: , - 1 ,�� _ �� • � �- - -- ' � �y� „�,_.�--__- Laurence J.

This matter was heard before the Current Planning & Zoning Committee at a public hearing on May 3, 1979. The applicant was present. A letter and a petition with 11 signatures were received in opposition. Major concerns were increased density and traffic congestion. No letter or input was received from District 5 on this matter. It was noted during the course of the hearing that the building plan submitted could not be constructed without variance, since it exceeded the number of allowable rooms relative to site size. Staff recommended approval af the rezoning request and the Current Planning & Zoning Committee, on a 5 to 0 vote, concurred with the staff recommendation based on the fact that the proposed development is not inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan ,and the pending District 5 Plan, and that rezoning the site would likely help in revitalizing the neighborhood. On May 11 , 1979 the Planning Commission unanimously confirmed the recommendation of the Current Planning & Zoning Committee on a 17 to 0 vote. The City Council has scheduled a public hearing on this matter for July '24, 1979. Sincerely, G,��wrc.�u - Laurence J. un� City Planner LJJ/gf � Encs. F � ' MINUTES OF THE P�IEETING OF THE CURRENT PLANPJING & ZOPJING C0�1MITTEE IN CITY COUNCIL CHAt1BERS, ST PAUL, P1INN. ON MAY 3, 1979 PRESEPdT: Ms. Karns, Plessrs. Fitzgibbon, Levy, Pangal and Bryan of the Current Planning & Zoning Committe; hir. Robert Straughn, Assistant City Attorney; htmes. P1cNeally and Fox and P�r. Jung of the Planning Staff. ABSENT: P1cGinley, Summers The meeting was chaired by Mr. James Bryan, the Chairman. ROGER JESKA (#8429): An application to rezone from RT-1 (1 & 2 Family) to RT-2 (Tawnhouse) in order to construct a 4-plex on the north side of Jenks between 4Jestminster & Arkwright. The applicant was present. There was no opposition present at the hearing. t4r. Jung showed slides of the site and reviewed his staff report with a recommendation of approval for the rezoning request. P�1r. Levy asked if any information had been received by the district council on this matter and P�1r. Jung said the district had been notified and he had telephoned to see if they had an official position on the rezoning, but had been told "most l�ikely not". � Mr. Jung explained that the house would be 50 ft. wide and the lot 75 ft. wide, so there would be room to take care of the 3 to 4 ft. slope of the site. He presented a site plan to the Committee and noted a letter in opposition received from Mrs. Hi1da C. Strand of 398 Jenks St. He also noted receipt of a petition against the proposal with 11 signatures. � Mr. Straughn advised that three single far:�ily houses could be built on three individual lots or one duplex, because they are lots of record, if they meet conditions of the Zoning Ordinance. He said two duplexes could not be built on this site. t•1r. Pangal raised the question of spot zoning and asked P1r. Jung's opinion. htr. Jung said the�re is no definition of spot zoning in th� ordinance and that in this case it wauld be a matter of interpretation. Mr. Straughn said the term spot zoning is usually used in cases when the court wants to overturn something, and the court generally looks to 1 ) conformance with the Comprehensive Plan (district plan) , 2) whether it is a small or large parcel , and 3} whether the - zoning was done for the benefit of the community as a whole rather than for the benefit of the individual developer. Roger Jeska, the applicant, 1329 E. Co. Rd. C, said the letter of opposition from 398 Jenlcs Street was from an individual with a day care center. There being no further public testimony, P1r. Bryan closed the public hearing. In response to a question from P9s. Karns as to whether District 5 has a district plan, Mr. �~ Pangal informed her that they did not. P�r. Pangal then moved to recommend approval of the rezoning request based on the fact that the deve]�opr��ent of these lots would benefit the neighborhood, because no one is going to come in and build three single family homes on those lots. He said the rezoning would help revitalize the neighborhood to some extent and also the district. He said his motion took into effect the fact that District 5 had been notified and had not responded. t � • ROGER JESKA NQNUTES PAGE TWQ Ftr. Fitzgibbon said that he wondered how much harm was done in defining the decline or revitalization of neighborhoods, with the present transitional character of neighborhoods. Mr. Levy said that compared with the word "blighted", P4r. Fitzgibbons' comment was soft. He did not think this could be called spot Zoning and the fact that the neighborhood is transitional does not mean anything. Mr. Straughn said the developer has a few problems: The parcels are less than 10,000 sq. ft. and this should be brought to the Board of Zoning Appeals. The number of raoms should be 8 instead of 10. P1r. Pangal 's motion to recommend approval was seconded by htr. Levy and passed on a 5 to 0 roll call vote. Submitted by: Approved by: , . j - �� • � �---- - - _.. ', � �L� �-_�--- Laurence J.

STAFF INVESTIGATION & REPORT: DATE 4'23-79 BY Laurence J. Jung -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A. SUFFICIENCY: The applicant's request for rezoning was filed on a consent petition form subscribed & sworn to before a notary public on 3-12-79, declared sufficient by the Finance Dept. on 3-23-79, and received i�1 the Planning Office on 4-2-79. 30 parcels wer eligible; 20 signatures were needed and 21 were obtained. B. PURPOSE: The petitioner requests rezoning of three adjacent lots from RT,1 (Twa Family- Residential ) to RT-2 (Townhouse-Residential) in order to construct a 4-plex. E. F�ONTAGE & AREA: The three interior lots have a combined frontage of 75 ft. , a depth of about 125 ft. and a total area of about 9,375 sq. ft. Ldith, alley, the total site wou�d be 10.,125 sq. ft. �� D. SITE CONDITIONS: The three lots are vacant of development and plantings. Lot 37 is about 5 ft. above street grade and slopes downward to the west. There is part of a retaining �wa11 in place in front of Lot 37. Alley access is provided along the rear and there is a partial fence along the alley. E. AP.EA CONDITIONS: The surr-ounding area is solidly built up with older, single and two family structures. New single family dwellings have been bui,lt i,n the neighborhood to the west and north. Nearest higher use areas are the RM-1 zone on the west side of Westminster and the RM-2 zone about 200 ft. distance to the northeast on the same block. East Consoli- dated Elementary School is situated about a half block east, on the east side of Arkwright. Both Arkwright and Case Avenue, a block south, are moderately busy thoroughfares. I-35E is two blocks west of the site. F. FINDINGS: 1 . Applicant proposes to construct a split entry, wood framed 4-plex on the three lots that would be 50' x 33' . Six off-street parking spaces would be provided off the.alley in the rear. 2. This is currently the only vacant parcel in the neighborhood. 3. Applicant is limited to developing a duplex on the 75 ft. wide parcel which is somewhat excessive. Single family development would not be economically justified. 4. While the request for rezoning could be construed as spot ioning, the transitional character of this immediate neighborhood would appear to be suited for developing a use such as proposed. Recent enlargements of nearby multiple family districts suggest that such a development would be in keeping with this changing trend. 5. Applicant also owns the existi�g single family dwelling adjacent on the west. 6. The district plan ictentifi�s tr��is as a t�.ansit��r.a' res��nt��1 neighhorhoad. Y 7. The 1963 Comprehensive Land Use Plan shows this block to be basically 1 and 2 family residential , but could include town or rowhouses with a maximum of 15 units/acre. G. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Based on Findings 1 thru �'� Staff recommends approval of this request to rezone to RT-2.
