Planning Commission Meeting Minutes -Wednesday, November 07, 2007 Page 9 Commissioner Doherty concurred, opining that it would be in the best interests of the applicant to ensure that the site was clean prior to reconstruction. Commissioner Gottfried concurred, opining such a condition may be redundant. Mr. Paschke reiterated that, as part of the demolition and building permit processes, certain state requirements needed to be met; and further noted that no one at City Hall had the expertise to analyze soil borings for hazardous materials, and would refer any potential issues to a higher level than the City (i.e., MPCA) for remediation, with substantial checks and balances already in place at that level, as well as in the City's PUD process. Commissioner Wozniak withdrew the motion. By consensus, Commissioners requested that the applicant work with staff for augmenting existing landscaping and fencing as applicable.
