building lighting, must comply with the requirements of Section 1010.12 of the City Code. 4.All signage for the project must comply with the requirements of Section 1009 of the City Code, including the size and location of wall signs, pylon sign, and directional signs. 5.The sidewalk along the front of the property shall be improved and/or replaced, at the applicant’s expense, if required by the City in conjunction with site development. Pedestrian access must be provided from this sidewalk to the front door of the building via a paved pedestrian surface. 6.Prior to a building permit being issued for redevelopment of the site, the applicant shall post a landscape bond, letter of credit, or other security acceptable to the City, in an amount equal to 150% of the cost of site landscaping, street tree planting, and site restoration. The specific amount of this security shall be determined by the Community Development Director following completion of all site construction plans. 7.The applicant shall record the approved conditional use permit with the Ramsey County Recorder prior to the issuance of any building permit or within sixty days of approval, whichever is less (Section 1013.01-City Code). 8.The conditional use permit shall expire within six months of the date of City Council approval if a building permit is not obtained for the approved development (Section 1013.03 of the City Code). 9.The applicant and/or underlying property owner shall grant an access easement along the western edge of the property to the City in order to provide a public access from County Road B south to the McDonald’s property. Craig Bornes and Steve Halvorsen expressed concern about item 9 in conditions. They are concerned about granting an easement at this time when other properties do not have a two-way access available to the north. Arby’s and KFC will block the access because of their drive-thru lanes. Chairperson Wietecki noted there is a problem, a need for the easements, but asked if McDonalds would cooperate if all property owners would allow access for their sites. It is not clear how much traffic would enter McDonalds for use of the north/south accessway. An improvement would be an east/west access as well. There being no further comments from the public, Chairperson Wietecki closed the hearing. 9
