(Refer to page 8 for additional names) The Village Attorney read the official notice of the Public Hearing. REV. DENNIS LORENZ stated that he and the other residents of Chanhassen Estates were here because of their concern about their p~operty values. We request that the Council not rezone this property to commercial and that the pro- perty be zoned to not more than an R-3District for the following reasons: 1. Our environment. 2. Out investment. 3. Concern about who may own the property tomorrow. 4. Safety factor. 5. Our children will be playing in an asphalt jungle. I KERRY GRINKMEYER: I would like to hear Mr. Mason explain the proposed rezoning. MR. MASON explained how the property had originally been zoned and that a sign has been on the property since 1969, stating For Sale - Zoned Commercial. Also that the lots abutting Outlot 2 were sold from $1,500.00 to $2,000.00 less than other lots because they were abutting this commercial property. KERRY GRINKMEYER: Two of the reasons I am against this rezoning are: 1. I do not feel it is proper use of the land. 2. I feel that it would impair the value of my investment. He also referred to the residential homes abutting the Crosstown Highway in Edina. Also Mr. Mason has other alternatives and he doesn't. I r page 3 PUBLIC HEARING - CHANHASSEN ESTATES - OUTLOTS 1 & 2 REZONING I DAVE PATTERSON: I feel that if we knew what Mr. Mason was planning for this area we would feel better. We mainly don't want to see a bar or something of this nature. MR. MASON: We have a considerable investment in the lots of Chanhassen Estates 2nd Addition and would not want to je9pardize the value of them. MR. LENANDER: I feel there seems to be sufficient commercial zoning on the main street. KERRY GRINKMEYER: I would be upset if it was rezoned for a filling station. STAN GRISMORE stated that he is concerned about the traffice congestion that would be created in the area. With a landscaping plan it might help protect my investment. MR. MASON stated that a hedge has been planted all along the Chanhassen Estates residential lots. I TOM LENZMEIER: What does Mr. Mason think will be constructed on Outlot #2? MR. MASON: There is nothing specific planned at this time. BOB GOLBERG: I live further back then the 200 feet require- ment but wonder if Outlot #2 could be made residential and only Outlot #1 commercial. MR. QUIST: I have talked to the Highway Department and they have stated that they will not allow additional access to Highway 5 from Chanhassen Estates. ALEX KRENGEL: I was told, by the realtor when I bought my property, that these Outlots would be used for duplex or multiple. The realtor was not Mr. Mason's firm. JOE GARRETT: I was assured by my realtor that there would not be anything other than single family residences. STEVE WOLF: What type of commercial development would be acceptable? I REV. DENNIS LORENZ: I don't believe we are ready to speak with respect to certain types of commercial zoning. We came here against the property being zoned commercial period. A motion was made by Councilman Bennyhoff and seconded by Councilman Neils to adjourn the Public Hearing.
