<br />Planning Commission Minutes <br />November 8, 1995 <br /> <br />6. <br /> <br />(b) <br /> <br />Planning File 2801: Scott Greseth/Lava Links request for a conditional use <br />permit at 1655 W. County Road B-2. <br /> <br />Chairperson Keith Wietecki opened the public hearing and requested City Planner Michael <br />Falk to provide a background report regarding the request by Lava Links. Mr. Falk <br />illustrated the site with a video. He explained that the request is for an amendment to the <br />existing conditional use permit. The amendment would allow for 14 additional amusement <br />devices on site. The total number of amusement devices within the business would then <br />total 50. No additional space will be added to the Lava Links business but the business <br />will replace table games with amusement games which are used in coordination with their <br />birthday party sales and party room. <br /> <br />Falk noted that there have been no police calls since January 1, 1994 regarding the <br />disturbances. He stated that a conditional use permit amendment is needed and license <br />approvals is also needed for the 14 additional devices. The staff recommended approval. <br /> <br />Scott Greseth, Lava Links manager, stated that Lava Links has been in business for four <br />years and have made changes to adapt to the business environment. Additional devices <br />are primarily for birthday parties. They have had no security problems and the Lava Links <br />area has not been a hang-out area.
