Northern Forest Products <br /> 2050 Main Street �.4'� A, <br /> Centerville, Minnesota 55038 � \ J ,' 4A m <br /> Phone 612- 429 -9990 644 <br /> Fax 612-429-9993 A y;:,, , <br /> R ODUG N <br /> July 28, 1998 <br /> City of Centerville <br /> 880 Main Street <br /> Centerville, MN 55038 <br /> Dear City Council and Planning and Zoning Committee members: <br /> This letter outlines our plans for completing a turnaround driveway on our lot H's 5 and 6 <br /> in the Centerville Industrial Park. <br /> Pose of Project: <br /> To provide a safer and less congested flow of vehicle traffic for current Northern Forest <br /> Product's operations. <br /> Current Concerns: <br /> • Most trucks are opting to back out onto CSAH 14 when leaving due to inadequate <br /> turnaround space on current lot #5, creating a dangerous traffic situation. <br /> • Several incoming loads of lumber can arrive within a few hour time periods, creating a <br /> situation where later arriving trucks are parking on the North side of CSAH 14 until other <br /> trucks are unloaded. <br /> • Current paved area on lot #5 is inadequate due to sharing of space for following items: <br /> - Parking stalls on East and West <br /> - Area necessary for current truck being unloaded (forklift <br /> unloads from both sides) <br /> - Trucks arriving throughout the day picking up lumber to be <br /> delivered to our customers <br /> - Temporary placement of loads taken off trucks until inbound <br /> procedures completed <br /> - Sorting of lumber on pavement due to occasional inadequate <br /> space in warehouse <br /> • Our business is growing constantly and congestion and safety issues will grow. <br /> page 1 <br />
