August 4, 1980 Page Three /W 3. North of Highway 10 Area Occupied By Custom Motors Mr. John Engberg, attorney for Custom Motors, Mr. Cliff Olsen, owner of Custom Motors, and Mr. Jerry Gallati, previous owner of Custom Motors, were present to express their opposition to the proposed zone change for the area occupied by Custom Motors from I-2 to an R-1B zone. Mr. John Engberg indicated that the area in question has had an Industrial Use for the past twenty years and with the proposed zoning of R-1B, Custom Motors would be a non-conforming use, which would prohibit expansion. Council- man Otto indicated that there was a need for a used car business and felt the area should remain an I-2 zoning to allow for the used car business. Councilman Duitsman indicated the owners had not fulfilled the requirements of the City Council to provide for a screening of some sort for the busi- ness. Mr.. Jerry Gallati indicated a cyclone fencing was ordered and would be placed alon with trees or plants or vines or with slats in the fencing, as a screening. Councilman Toth indicated that he did not have a problem with the present zoning of I-2 and asked Commissioner Fox of the Planning Commission for his comments. Commissioner Fox indicated the Planning Com- mission was not totally in favor of a Commercial zoning out in the Court- house area and this zoning was a compromise for the commercial zoning on the southside of Highway 10. The City Administrator indicated the I-2 zoning was not consistent with the Land Use Map plan. COUNCILMAN OTTO MOVED TO LEAVE THE PRESENT I-2 ZONING AREA ON THE NORTH SInE OF HIrHWAY NUMBER 10. COUNCILMAN DUITSMAN SECONDED THE MOTION. THE MOTION PASSED 4-0.

The City Administrator indicated the Planning Commission recommended the 4-acre parcel be re-zoned to an I-i zoning rather than the R-1 zoning currently proposed on the Zoning Map. Mr. Bill Brady, owner of property immediately to the north of the property in question. apreared before the Council to express his opposition to the I-i zoning. Mr. Paul Carton indicated the 4-acre parcel was bordered on one side by County Road 1, on one side by another road, on one side by the railroad tracks, and the other side by a swamp, and further indicated the best use for the land was an industrial use to provide a buffer between the current Industrial Park and the residential area. Councilman Otto indicated that he had a problem with changing and spot zoning for individuals. COUNCILMAN TOTH MOVED TO CHANGE THE ZONING FOR THE FOUR-ACRE CARTON PROPERTY FROM R-I ZONING TO AN I-1 ZONING. THE MOTION DIED FOR LACK OF A SECOND. No further action to alter the zoning from R-1 was taken by the City Council. 5. Correction of Industrial Zoning to be One-half I-2 and One-half I-1.
