of 175th Street and west of Ipava Avenue adjacent to the Christina Huddleston
Elementary School property; and to rezone a portion of the lots from R-2,
single family, to R-4, single and two family residence, and R-5, single family,
two family and medium density residential district. Mr. Don Hess of Landplan,
representing Mrs. Barrett, made an in-depth presentation, showing many visuals
.regarding this development and answered questions from some of the 48 residents
in attendance from the surrounding area. These residents are adamently opposed
to any rezoning other than the. R-2 that it is now. Mr. Louie Helkenn, owner of
.adjoining property, was concerned about where the storm sewer runs and the
possibility of run-off, when building starts and the streets are put in. Mr.
Frank Kriz stated they are aware of it and will deal with the run-off problem
if there is one.
Members of the commission pointed out that Lakeville does need different types
of housing and that there can be high quality housing in R-4 and R-5 Districts.
Mr. Hess mentioned that he was more than willing to meet with any (or all) of
the residents to assure them that the Barrett's have good intentions and had.
given all sorts of consideration before even starting to put this plat together.

. on the rezoning application only. Grohoski's second was for the purpose of
getting on with the vote, but has commenC to make later.

Grohoski stated that he felt the R-5 zoning was inappropriate for that pares:',`.
titular parcel of land but with proper design and planning the R-4 zone could
well be incorporated in that area, not necessarily in the present layout, but

was spent getting our zoning ordinances set up and that he feels we need a
lot of good reasons for changing the zoning on any property. Mr. Jerry Wick-
