1 Extract of Draft Planning Commission Minutes of Oct 2, 2002 Meeting: 2 3 a. Plannin2 File 3370: State Fair Interim Use Permit (IUP) Annual Report 4 5 On March 4,2002, the Roseville City Council approved seven Interim Use 6 Permits for the Minnesota State Fair allowing the operation of park & ride lots on 7 seven properties in Roseville during the State Fair (two weeks in late August and 8 early September). The properties include Bethany Baptist Church, Church of 9 Corpus Christi, Grace Church of Roseville, Roseville Covenant Church, 10 Roseville Area High School, St. Michael's Lutheran Church, and The Church of 11 St. Rose. 12 13 The Interim Use Permits (IUPs) were approved for each individual site with 14 certain terms and conditions. Specifically, the lot at Bethany Baptist Church 15 required the review by staff in 2002 (and reported to the Commission and 16 Council) to determine whether adjacent property owner concerns have been 17 properly addressed. 18 19 The City Staff did receive complaints from the same household regarding issues 20 related to the St. Rose park-and-ride lot. A review of this lot has also been 21 completed. 22 23 Throughout the 12 day Minnesota State Fair, the City Planner completed 24 numerous inspections of each of the seven park-and-ride lots, finding no 25 inappropriate activities or violations to the any of the seven approved Interim Use 26 Permits. 27 28 The Community Development Department and Public Works Department did 29 discuss "no parking signage", but determined it to be problematic and impossible 30 to enforce, especially a City wide ban (or individual lot) for on-street parking on 31 the City streets surrounding each park-and-ride lot. 32 33 Based on a complaint, the City could consider signing a particular comer 34 (Dellwood at Eldridge) for "no parking" and inspect to see whether violations 35 have occurred. However, the staff did not suggest implementing a no parking 36 policy on City streets that surround each park-and-ride lot. 37 38 Thomas Paschke noted that he has received letters of support and one letter of 39 concern regarding the St. Rose site. Chair Duncan received a letter from Sara 40 Barsel, PhD., which was read into the record (attached). Paschke reported that 41 neighbors near the Bethany lot asked that the lot be open later. 42 43 Member Pepper asked if the IUP included all sites (No, only parking lots in R-l 44 zoning districts). 45 46 Randy Neprash noted that the access to St. Rose is on Dellwood. There are no 47 sidewalks. The safety concern is for over-flow parking along residential streets. 48 The increased traffic and parking on Dellwood at the same time create safety 49 issues. Staff did not report on afternoon and evening traffic. Mr. Neprash 50 suggested signage along Eldridge and Dellwood. 51 Member Stone asked how deep into the neighborhood does the parking extend.
