Dear Roseville City Council Members: We, the undersigned, encourage the Council to adopt the recommendations approved by the Roseville Planning Commission July 10, 1996, on the following two items: 1. Planning File 2845, Roseville's request for a Master Buffer Plan amendment to the City's Comprehensive Plan for screening and buffers along the residential/industrial boundaries between the industries facing County Road C, and the residences along Rose Place, between Hamline and Snelling. This is an area which has had problems along the interface for years. It is a situation complicated by the fact that several of the homes are on a hill overlooking the industries. In March, 14 families (26 people) along this strip petitioned the Planning Commission to direct development of such a plan, which would preserve residential property values as industries change and expand along that strip. . 2. Planning File 2810, Scott WicklundIMIDC request for a conditional use permit and variance at 1450 County Road C. At its meeting, the Planning Commission strengthened the recommendations of City Staff in response to neighborhood presentations on specifics of problems along the strip and the area's recent history of industrial uses and operations. We request that. the strong protections recommended by the Planning Commission (specifically a berm and screening approach congruent with the new Master Buffer Plan noted above) be ret.ained and required oft.he applicant. Without these safeguards, we would oppose the granting of the conditional use permit. and variance. With them, we feel t.hat the neighborhood and indust.ry have an excellent chance of being compatible, Sincerely, ___________~Il.:Q"_cD.:G.,:S;;l-L-~r..~------------------------.l.'L]_~L_!l'.?_~dL _________~~L:-i.j{L~----~X'--'!:,<'dL-----------------!-~_:_~____~_~_~~_~L ______~:kLL~L-L~~-------------------~L~2--~Z~~~-- _ _______~_~_~___________L_~~~__~~~~_________ _______:._____~~ ~------------------LI{?.~--~r.~--dt~s:---------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- p.s.
