ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – FEBRUARY 23, 2015 21 City Planner Streff did not believe there was enough room to provide for additional storage along this elevation of the building. He reported that the property owner would have to maintain a 24 foot driving aisle. He reviewed a photograph of the rear of the building with the Council. Councilmember Woodburn asked if the dumpsters had to be screened. City Planner Streff stated that with new developments this was a requirement. Mayor Pro-Tem McClung was in favor of the dumpsters being screened along with additional storage along the rear of the building. Councilmember Woodburn supported this recommendation as well. City Attorney Jamnik advised that the Council could add a condition which would require the dumpsters to be screened. However, due to the late hour, he recommended the Council table action on this matter in order to allow staff to work with the applicant on the issues raised by the Council.
