Chair Zehnder opened the public hearing for comment.

Roger Borgmeier, 23195 583^rd Ave. Mr. Borgmeier was present at the meeting and asked how long the temporary road would remain in place.

Chair Zehnder indicated that the duration would depend on any future development that may occur in the area.

Mr. Borgmeier indicated that he owns the land to the west and has no plans to develop and again questioned how long a temporary road can last.

Chair Zehnder indicated that, in that case, the construction done will stay the same going into the future.

Ms. Westman added that Blue Earth County is allowing access to this parcel on an interim basis. She indicated that when Mr. Borgmeier’s property is developed, the road will have to be removed because Blue Earth County only wants one access into this area.

Mr. Borgmeier wanted clarification that there is no time limit to the temporary road, and it is more based on what happens to his property in the future.

Ms. Westman indicated that this is correct.

Mr. Borgmeier inquired about the access plan for all three parcels in the event that the property west of his is developed.

Chair Zehnder asked if there was any other information from Blue Earth County as to how many access points they are willing to grant in that area.

Ms. Westman indicated that because it is a county road, the county would need to provide those access points. At this time, there were no plans for development, but if plans did come forward, the City of Mankato would work with Blue Earth County to determine where that access would be and how much would be acceptable.

Mr. Konz added that Blue Earth County has the right-of-way all the way across the parcels in question. He added that as proposals come forward, the county would determine the appropriate access spacing per the standards in the Mankato area transportation plan.

Mr. Borgmeier indicated that he didn’t believe you could put in 3 access points across those 3 parcels and indicated you would need something like a frontage road.

Ms. Westman indicated there may potentially need to be a frontage road or shared access to serve these properties as they develop. 

Mr. Borgmeier added that he doesn’t see a reason for a temporary road and questioned why it wouldn’t be done correctly the first time.

Chair Zender indicated this was a valid question, but there are no other development plans outside this parcel.

Mr. Wilke added that the planning commission can only make decisions based on the information that is in front of the commission today. The proposal in front of the commission today includes a temporary access road that complies with ordinances.

Mr. Konz noted that those parcels in question are not located in the City of Mankato. He added that requiring a road to be constructed through those parcels may require easements or annexation into the city.

Mr. Borgmeier questioned if it is considered a temporary road because it is not safe.

Mr. Filipovitch stated that the temporary road preserves Mr. Borgmeier’s options. If a permanent road were to be put in, his options would be constrained by the access road that was created. By designating this a temporary road and requiring the owner to be a willing participant in future access planning, it leaves his options open further down the line.

With no one wishing to speak further, the public hearing was closed.

Mr. Filipovitch made a motion to approve the final plat with conditions, the rezoning of the property, the planned unit development with conditions, and the conditional use permit with conditions. The motion was seconded by Mr. Wilke. The motion passed unanimously.

The anticipated date of City Council action is September 8, 2025. 

CYL37-25

Request of Eric Brewer for a rezone of the subject property from Industry to Residential Transition District. The subject property is described as being located in the SE corner of the NE quarter; the south 413.15 feet, thence north 305.88 feet, east 197.61 feet, south 14.5 feet, east 215.54 feet, south 291.38 feet, to the point of beginning, except Blue Earth County Highway Right of Way Plat No. 48, Section 22, Township 109, Range 26, a lot containing approximately 2.30 acres, Lime Township (Blue Earth County PID R400422200005, 58830 240^th Street).

Ms. Potts reports that staff respectfully submit the following findings of fact for the request of the zoning classification of Industry to Residential – Transition District:

1. The request does not negatively impact on the health, safety and welfare of the Township. The property is currently a residential use.
2. Given the location of the parcel, the rezoning of the parcel does not impact natural resources, prime farmland and environmentally sensitive areas.
3. Rezoning of the land, does not affect the townships promotion and the preservation of agricultural land and uses and the economic viability of farming operations.
4. The use provides for a compatible land use pattern that limits existing and potential conflicts and respects private property rights. The rezoning provides flexibility for future uses of the property consistent with other uses in the area.
5. The existing use does not require municipal water and sanitary sewer services. Future uses will be evaluated to determined if annexation and service extension is required. 
6. The location of the property is not near “aggregate potential” land. Thus, the approval of the rezoning would not adversely affect the allowance for the extraction of mineral deposits in a manner that is sensitive to surrounding land uses, natural resources, and environmentally sensitive areas. Nor would it mitigate the impacts of mineral extraction on surrounding uses and reclamation of the property used for mineral extraction to a condition that can be utilized for future development should be considered in the review of permitting for mining interim use permits.
7. To allow Lime Township the continuation of commercial and industrial land uses on properties within the Township that currently are used for those purposes. The property is not and has not been used for industrial purposes, which is why the applicant is requesting for a rezoning of the property to bring back the use into conformance. The rezoning to residential transition allows for flexibility in zoning for future uses.
8. Allow for the construction of residential uses on existing lots of record and in locations that are not prime farmland. The land is not a lot of record and has a residential dwelling located on the lot.

Ms. Potts reports that staff recommends approval of the request to rezone the property from the current zoning classification of Industry to Residential – Transition District in Lime Township.

Eric Brewer. Mr. Brewer was present at the meeting to answer any questions the commission members may have had.

Chair Zehnder opened the public hearing for comment, with no one wishing to speak, the public hearing was closed.

Mr. Iddings made a motion to approve the rezoning classification. The motion was seconded by Mr. Wilke. The motion passed unanimously.

The anticipated date of Lime Township Board action is August 12, 2025.
