Town of Otsego Schulz, Chairman; Douglas Lindenfelser and
Floyd Roden, Supervisors; Betty Adkins, Deputy

The meeting was called to order by Chairman William Schulz. The
minutes of the July 19, 1982 meeting were approved as read.
The application of Perry Dahl to place a mobile home as an asses-
sory to a farm (Kenneth Davis farm) was discussed. The Board will
request him to present his application to the Otsego Planning Commis-
sion at their next meeting for their consideration.
Larry Brockmer appeared before the Board to discuss the barricade
he had placed on the Township road by his property in Walesch Estates,
2nd Addition, the road comes to a dead-end at the end of his lot. The
Board advised him they will come out and check the barricade(constructed
by Mr. Brockner) to see what is needed to make it a legal "Road Temp-
orarily Closed" sign.
Carl Swenson appeared before the Board to discuss the 1982 Comp-
rehensive Plan for the Township. In regards to commercial development
and in view of the fact that the County Planning Commission requires
that commercial use have utilities available, the Otsego Planning
Commission has decided not to designate any area as commercial and to
consider future application on an individual basis. The Board expres-
sed agreement on this proposal.
In regards to residential development, one area that before was
considered as residential development area is the southeastern part of
the Township. Carl Swenson felt this should be changed as it contains
considerable good farmland as well as wildlife areas. The Otsego Plan-
ning Commission suggested that 78th Street be the south border of resi-
dential development area.
In regards to development along Co. #39, as the previous Compre-
hensive Plan called for residential development on the north side of
Co. #39, the Planning Commission felt they should also include a 1320
foot wide strip along the south side of Co. #39 all the way to the' west
border of the Township. On this change the Town Board expressed con-
cern about taking more agricultural land out of production.
Motion by William Schulz that the 1982 Comprehensive Plan be sent
back to the Otsego Planning Commission for re-consideration, the items
in question being expanded for the possible residential development
along the south side of Co. #39 and extending the western edge of pro-
posed residetial development area from Oakwood Avenue to Nashua Avenue

Lawrence Milstroh appeared before the Board to request approval
of his application for an "On Sale" Liquor License. The Board advised
him they would like to view his establishment to check on parking space
avaialable, ect. before making their decision.
The Board set August 24, 1982, as a tenative meeting date with the
City Administrator of Elk River to discuss the 1982 Fire Protection
