<br />Planning Commission Meeting Minutes <br />July 10, 1996 <br /> <br />Molly Redmond, 1455 Rose Place, stated that Item 12 in the draft conditional use permit <br />needs clarity. The fences should be at the back or north side ofthe berm on Mr. <br />Wicklund's property. <br /> <br />Chairman Wietecki asked for clarification regarding which prototype buffer or screening <br />works on this site. City Planner Falk stated that either alternative A or B works. <br /> <br />Matt McCloud, 1433 Rose Place, recommended the placement of a berm plus an 8 ft. <br />high fence at the north side ofthe buffer. <br /> <br />Member Sandstorm stated that the staff recommendation is flexible and could use <br />prototype A, B, or C. Member Wietecki explained that alternatives A and B work best <br />with a buffer, and that the staff should work with the applicants and the neighbors to <br />provide a detailed planting plan. <br /> <br />Molly Redmond, 1455 Rose Place, stated the neighborhood requests as much planting <br />and buffering as possible, as soon as possible. The 25 ft. distance described in the <br />original proposal is a concern because owners and operators of the industrial area park <br />vehicles on the 25 ft. buffer instead of planting it. She stated that prototype B with a <br />berm and an 8 ft. high fence constructed as soon as possible would be the most immediate <br />solution. <br /> <br />Mr. Wicklund stated it was too soon to agree on a specific plan. He needed more <br />information and time to calculate the cost of such a plan. <br /> <br />There were no further comments. Chairman Wietecki closed the public hearing. <br /> <br />Member Harms stated that a wooden fence may be necessary. <br /> <br />Chairman Wietecki stated that a 3 ft. high berm would help reduce the 40 ft. setback area <br />from being used for other purposes. Member Sandstrom stated that a berm should be <br />specified with alternative A or B. Chairman Wietecki stated that this is a tight timeframe <br />and that planting must be completed by September 30, 1996. Member Wilke asked <br />whether the catch basin may need to be relocated. <br /> <br />Assistant City Engineer, Jay Kennedy, stated that a grading permit will be necessary to <br />install a berm and at that time, the staff will investigate the need for a catch basin. <br /> <br />MOTION: Member Wietecki moved, seconded by Member Sandstrom, to adopt a Draft <br />Resolution PC7 II 0/96b recommending approval of a conditional use permit with <br /> <br />7 <br />
