Member Eg Ii asked if the parking lot adjacent to Lake Street was set back 10 feet? Member Egli asked how the 37,500 s.t. compared to the competition in clubhouses? Mr. Bessinger said the Club House as proposed is mid-range in size. Member Egli asked if the special function entrance on the south had an additional door? (Yes, for delivery of supplies only). Glen Morey, 2231 Draper Ave., said he was pleased with the response by the Club, but concerned about how the City will manage the site, especially the 10% expansion limit approvable by the staff. He recommended no further expansion to the east side of the building. He was concerned about the swimming pool conditional use permit amendment. He has not seen landscape plans or grading plans, recommended that Council approval occur only after receipt of such plans. Joe Olson asked the length of the building from east to west (no direct answer, 350 to 400 foot estimated by architect). David Mueller, 2115 Rosewood Lane, said all neighbors should have gotten notice. Traffic from Fulton should have a signage/entrance on Cleveland, directing traffic to the entry to Midland Hills. The neighbors derive no benefit from the Club. He asked how tall the building was from Midland Hills Road. Cathy Croughan, 1961 Midland Hills, asked for details of the drainage to her adjacent residential area and whether vegetation will be retained? Ms. Croughan asked for details of how the pipe will be installed from the parking area. (possibly a 1 O-foot wide trenched pipe then landscape restored). Joe Olson, Roselawn and Midland Hills Road, distributed written comments on criteria for compatibility (attached to minutes). He expressed concern with incompatibility of the clubhouse. He suggested that banquet use would increase by 42%. He recommended no construction south of the west extension of north Rosewood Lane and east of the line running along the east side of the club house and along the east side of the driveway and parking to Fulham. He also recommended a ban on outdoor audio systems and music; and that a member must be responsible for each banquet function. Cathy Croughan, 1961 Midland Hills, said that an oversight was made on the drawings, allowing no screening of the view from her home to the north and northwest. The berm and plantings must extend further to cover this site. Being adjacent to the club is a benefit, but the building will be large and close to homes, especially the "party end" of the building with its noise. Parking lot noise has not been addressed - could the club staff or off duty Roseville police monitor the parties, especially late night. The Planning Commission should preclude further eastward development toward the neighborhood. Ed Sucoff, Midland Hills Road, noted that the building is large (160 feet north to south). He compared buildings with this building. It is too large for a suburban site. He recommended: 1) No access from Midland Hills or Rosewood Lane. 2) The final landscape plan should be approved by the Council. 3) The final lighting plan should be approved by the Council. 4) Noise outside the building should be contained. The developer should submit a noise impact statement and an abatement plan (as per Code, Section 405) for the patios and the parking lot. 5) There is no grading, landscaping, lighting, and future development plan. There is uncertainty about the ultimate use. He asked that the City postpone consideration until all plans are submitted. The landscaping and the activity stop at the property line not the building. Erli Chan, who lives at Rosewood and Midland Hills Drive, expressed concern with the visual and noise screening buffers from his house (house closest to the patio). He expressed concern with 10% administration amendment toward his property (to the east). Ward Shendell provided a list of items that the Planning Commission had previously discussed. There being no further public comment, Chair Klausing closed the hearing. Chair Klausing explained the conditions that must be met to approve the CUP. He expressed concern about conditions placed on future proposals. He listed the concerns from neighbors as well as his concerns. Motion: Member Mulder moved, seconded by Member Klausing to approve the request by Midland Hills Country Club for a conditional use permit as submitted in the plans dated February 4 and February 9, 2000, and subject to the findings and
