<br />Regular City Council Meeting <br />Monday, March 12, 2007 <br />Page 14 <br /> <br />Councilmember Pust requested a clarification of the number of cars going <br />through the Starbucks drive-thru. <br /> <br />Mr. Paschke advised that the staff report addressed those items earlier identi- <br />fied by the Council and public for additional information, with the exception <br />of traffic on Fairview A venue. Mr. Paschke advised that he was willing to <br />provide any additional information requested by the City Council on this <br />file. <br /> <br />Mayor Klausing suggested that if neighbors had particular concerns that <br />needed further information to be provided by staff, that they provide those <br />information requests to the City Councilor staff prior to the next meeting to <br />allow for better discussion and public policy decisions. <br /> <br />Mr. Paschke provided clarification to Councilmember Pust's request for the <br />actual number of vehicles going through the existing Starbucks drive-thru on <br />the north side of Highway 36; with rationale and interpretation of the peak <br />hour study times, determining why more vehicles were entering than were <br />exiting, with some having been on site prior to the time frame or sharing <br />trips to other retail uses on the site. Discussion included how to accurately <br />calculate and interpret those numbers; functionality of the site; and peak <br />hours of operation. <br /> <br />Councilmember Pust sought additional staff information regarding how to <br />determine environmental impacts previously addressed by neighbors for new <br />traffic versus past use traffic flows. <br />Roll Call <br />Ayes: Pust; Ihlan; Roe and Klausing. <br />Nays: None. <br /> <br />10.

Mayor Klausing noted that he had been open to Council members <br />suggesting an open application process, similar to other commission vacan- <br />cies; however recognized that Mr. Maschka was currently serving on the <br />HRA and was seeking reappointment, following the expiration of his Coun- <br />
