6.5. SR 03-17-1997ity of MEMORANDUM ITEM 6.5. TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: Mayor and City Council Steve Ach, City Planner ~.~ffe~g_ March 17, 1997 Conditional Use Permit Request by Pinnacle Foods LP (Perkins Restaurant), Public Hearing Case No. CU 97-1 Iss gte Pinnacle Foods, L.P. is requesting a conditional use permit for an amendment to their planned unit development for site plan review to expand the Perkins Family Restaurant, to install a 70 foot high structure (flagpole), and expand their parking facility within the Elk River Retail Center planned unit development. Location The northeast corner of Elk Hills Drive and U.S. Highway 169. Zoning/Land Use PUD (Planned Unit Development / HB (Highway Business) Attachments · Report to the Planning Commission dated February 25, 1997 · Letter from Davis-Darrow-Meyer Post #112 dated March 7, 1997 · Minutes from August 21, 1995 City Council meeting Overview Pinnacle Foods, L.P. Request involves these issues: · Expansion of existing restaurant facility · Installation of a 70' high structure (flagpole) · Expand existing parking (ff necessary) 13065 Orono Parkway · P.O. Box 490 · Elk River, MN 55330 · (612) 441-7420 · Fax: (612) 441-7425 Memo to the Mayor and City Council/CU 97-1 March 17, 1997 Page 2 The Perkins Restaurant currently has 4,160 sq. ft. of area. The proposed 1,450 sq. ft. expansion would bring the restaurant up to a total of 5,610 sq. ft. The addition will provide for 15 new tables with a total of 48 new seats. With this addition, the restaurant will have a total of 44 tables and 192 seats. The addition will basically involve expanding the north wall of the restaurant to add an additional row of tables. This expansion will not encroach into any existing driveways or parking areas, nor will the expansion have any influence on the drainage pattern of the site. It will require the relocation of some existing landscaping and restoration work when the addition is completed. The main issue staff has pointed out to the Planning Commission regarding this request has to do with parking. Although Perkins currently has enough parking to meet the city's ordinance, apparently adequate parking has been issue at this restaurant in the past. As Mr. Smith points out in his letter, he is also aware of a possible parking problem and is therefore requesting approval from the City Council to purchase additional land to the north and construct an additional parking area. All of this would take place if a parking problem does arise in the future prior to any additional construction north of the Perkins. Staff would recommend ff Mr. Smith would like to do this parking lot improvement, all improvements be done in conformance with the approved development plans for the Elk River Retail Center planned unit development. Staff has not received any specific plans from Mr. Smith illustrating what parking lot improvements would be made. If the City Council would like to review these plans it would be appropriate not to approve this parking lot expansion at this time and have Mr. Smith reapply when and if this improvement is made. Otherwise, if the Council approves expanding the parking lot as part of this apphcation, staff will review the proposed plans to make sure they are consistent with previously approved plans for the planned unit development. Proposed 70' Structure (Flag) Pinnacle Foods LP is also requesting to install a 70 foot high structure to place a flag at the top. This would replace the existing 35' high flag pole. This issue was discussed as part of the planned unit development for Elk River Retail Center when this project was originally approved. As part of the planned unit development, several "design" issues were considered including extensive landscaping along Dodge and the height of the structures within s:\council\cu97-1.doc Memo to the Mayor and City Councfl/CU 97-1 Page 3 March 17, 1997 the development and ways to minimize the impact upon the residential area to the east. From a planning and building code standpoint, the pole is considered a "structure". Therefore, a building permit will need to be applied for and reviewed in terms of its structural integrity, wind load standards and other building issues. The maximum height for structures in the highway commercial zone is 45 feet. The City Attorney has advised me this mater is not a legal issue. The city has no obligation to approve a 70 foot structure. Furthermore, this is not a sign issue. The sign ordinance specifically does not regulate "flags of any nation". However, it is a structure height issue similar to buildings, communication towers, signs, water towers, etc. It is also related to the "urban design" of Highway 169 and the "planned" approach to developing this corridor. To give the Council an idea or a comparison, the water tower along Highway 169 and the Perkins site are at a similar ground elevation. The water tower is approximately 95 feet. The proposed structure would be 70 feet. Planning Commission Recommendation The Planning Commission recommended approving the restaurant and parking lot expansion as proposed. However, the Commission voted 4-3 to deny the request to install a 70 foot structure (flagpole). Recommendation It is recommended the City Council approve the conditional use permit request by Pinnacle Foods LP to amend the planned unit development and expand the Perkins Restaurant facility by adding an additional 48 seats and expanding the parking lot, with the following conditions: ALL OF THE EXISTING LANDSCAPING DISTURBED AS PART OF THE CONSTRUCTION BE RELOCATED AND REPLACED. AWNINGS ALONG THE NORTH SIDE OF THE PROPOSED WALL NOT PROJECT INTO THE DRIVE AISLE. Se ANY PARKING LOT EXPANSIONS REQUIRE SUBMITTAL OF A SITE PLAN IDENTIFYING THE SPECIFIC IMPROVEMENTS TO BE MADE. THE NEW PARKING LOT EXPANSION BE DONE ONLY AFTER AN EXEMPTION TO THE SUBDIVISION ORDINANCE HAS BEEN COMPLETED WHICH WILL RELOCATE THE EXISTING LOT LINE, ALLOWING PERKINS TO PURCHASE ADDITIONAL PROPERTY. s:\councilXcu97-1 .doc Memo to the Mayor and City Council/CU 97-1 March 17, 1997 Page 4 THE PARKING LOT IMPROVEMENTS MEET ALL OF THE CITY'S PERFORMANCE STANDARDS SUCH AS CURB AND BITUMINOUS SURFACING. Staff would support the Planning Commission's recommendation to deny Pinnacle Foods, LP.'s request to install a 70 ft. high structure (flagpole) based on the following: The concept plans for the Elk River Development PUD were approved with building heights, signage and other structures, i.e., flagpoles, reduced in height to minimize the impact to the residential area to the east. There was public opposition to a flagpole exceeding 35 ft. in height at both the Planning Commission meeting on July 25, 1995, and the City Council meeting on August 21, 1995. As a guideline to approving the 35 foot high flagpole, the maximum sign height in the C3 (Highway Commercial) District was referenced. Given the location of the Elk River Retail Center PUD and its elevation above the highway and proximity to the residential, height restrictions and other measures to minimize the impact to the residential area were taken into consideration as part of the planned unit development. There are no substantial changes in the conditions of the site which warrant amending previous action by the Planning Commission and City Council s:\councilkcu97-1.doc iy of iver ITEM 6.4.

The proposed 1,450 sq. ft. expansion would bring the restaurant up to a total of 5,610 sq. ft. The addition will provide for 15 new tables with a total of 48 seats. This will bring the restaurant's totals up to 44 tables and 192 seats. 13065 Orono Parkway · P.O.

The existing landscaping on site that will be disturbed with the addition will be relocated accordingly. Attached is a letter from Dan Smith, general partner of Pinnacle Foods, LP. explaining in detail Perkins proposed expansion plans. As Mr. Smith points out in his letter, he is aware of a possible parking problem and would like to receive approval from the Planning Commission to purchase additional land and construction of an additional parking area immediately to the north, if a parking problem arises in the future. Staff would recommend that this new parking area, if it has to be constructed, be done in accordance with the concept plans that have been approved for Elk River Retail Center and that the parking area be improved with a bituminous surface, along with curb and gutter where appropriate. Proposed Flag In addition to the building expansion, Pinnacle Foods, LP. would like to request installing a 70 foot high flagpole to replace their existing 35 foot high flag. This is an issue that was discussed as part of the planned unit development plans for Elk River Retail Center during the early part of the project. Given the proximity of this commercial center to the residential area to the east, there were measures taken to try to mitigate the commercial impact upon this residential area. For example, the earth berming and extensive landscaping along Dodge, coupled with the future buildings being tucked into the west side of the berm helped in minimizing the commercial's appearance to the residential area. In addition, the height of the signs was also considered, both from the standpoint of the residential to the east and the site's elevation above Highway 169, which would not require excessively high signs. During that review, the flagpole was also included in the concept plans to show that it would fit within the height requirements and overall scale of the project. Staff believes the 70 ft. high flagpole would not be in scale with the proposed development and would receive opposition from the residents to the east, as the request did with the initial application by Perkins in 1995. Recommendation It is recommended the Planning Commission recommend approval of the conditional use permit for Pinnacle Foods, LP. to expand the existing Perkins Restaurant facility, adding an additional 48 seats, with the following conditions: s:\planning\pc\cu97-1.doc Memo to the Planning Commission/CU 97-1 February 25, 1997 Page 3 All of the existing landscaping that will be disturbed as part of the addition be replaced. Awnings along the north side of the wall not project into the drive aisle.

February 7, 1997 Steve Ach City of Elk River 13065 Orono Parkway Elk River, MN. 55330 Dear Steve, With respect to our recent conversation on parking, please see the following information: 1. You relayed that the City of Elk River required the greater of either, one parking spot for each four dining room seats, or one parking spot for each 100 square feet of building. 2. Our present situation, is as follows: 91 parking spots 32 tables 156 seats 4,160 square foot building Method "A" 156 seats divided by 4 seats per parking spot = 39 parking spots Method "B" 4,160 square feet divided by 100 = 42 parking spaces Our proposed expansion would result in the following situation: 91 parks 44 tables 192 seats 5,610 square foot building Method "A" 192 seats divided by 4 seats per parking spot = 48 parking spots Method "B" 5,610 square feet divided by 100 = 57 parking spots 4. With our addkional seats we will still have 34 more parking spots than required by city codes. o Additional Information: We Mil have 18 employees working during peak periods. Many employees are driven to work by fi/ends or relatives, but for the sake of this example, assume all 18 drove and parked in our lot. This leaves an additional 71 Parking spots for 44 tables. During winter months, when the lot becomes covered in snow to the extent that painted lot stripes cannot be seen, our parking, as with most other businesses, is less efficient, due to guests creating larger than normal parking spaces for themselves. 18838 Dodge Street NI~, Elk River, MN. 55330 612-441-5066 Pinnacle Foods, LP. 7. When the land wkhin the development is completed, to the north, additional parking spots wSll be available, as the overall development plat indicates. o As per our discussion, on 2/5/97, I request the City's approval at this t/me for my future option to purchase addkional land for parking should I feel the need to do so. I ask for this now, subject to City Caveats, so that I do not have to go through the expense of this process in the future. I look forward to working'wkh you again on this project, Steve. Please call if you have any questions. Sincerely~~ Daniel V. Smith General Partner 18838 Dodge Street NW, Elk River, MJV. 55330 612-441-5066 d :'ON 3'11d: ':J. X3,L D'I :AS 03:k'O3HO :~J.

Box 26 Elk River, Minnesota 55330 112 7 March 1997 Mr. Larry Farber City of Elk River 13065 Orono Parkway Elk River, MN 55330 Subject: Display of United States Flags Mr. Farber, American Legion Post 112 would like to express support for the display of United States flags in the City of Elk River. We have committed a great amount of effort over the years to displaying flags along the main thorough fares and streets in the City, particularly on patriotic days. We like to think that this display of flags along with the activities of the Elk River Honor Guard on Memorial Day, 4th of July, County Fair parade and the Homecoming parade have had a positive influence on the respect for our flag and country. This respect is dearly displayed by our community at parades and at events where the national anthem is performed. With this in mind, we would like to support the request of Perkins restaurant to display the United States flag on a 70 foot pole on their property along Highway 169. We feel this installation would add to the tradition of Elk River as the "City of Flags". Regards, Elk River City Council ~inules August 21, 1995 Page 7 within the Elk River Retail Center Planned Unit Development located at the northeast corner of Elk Hills Drive and US Highway 169. Steve Ach indicated that he and Dan Smith met with some of the affected property owners to discuss the concerns with the proposed Perkins Restaurant. Steve Ach reviewed the concerns of the residents along with what action has been taken to address these concerns: · The location of the driveway from the restaurant onto Dodge Street. · The headlights from vehicles either leaving the restaurant or circulating on site. · Increased traffic on Dodge Street. · Restaurant being open 24 hours a day. · Hours that trucks will be making deliveries to the restaurant site. · Height of the flag pole. · Architecture of the building having earth tone colors that will be more compatible with the residential area. Steve Ach indicated that the Planning Commission reviewed the request and recommended approval of the conditional use permit to construct a restaurant with the conditions that were outlined in the staff report. Steve Ach suggested that the Council add stipulation #10, "That additional landscaping be installed along the east side of the storm drainage pond to minimize the headlight glare from vehicles towards the residential area and that this landscaping be completed as part of Phase I. Mayor Duitsman opened the public hearing. Applicant Dan Smith informed the Council that the issue of Perkins being open 24 hours is very important. He indicated he is not in favor of the Planning Commission's recommendation to allow the 24 hour operation 7 days a week with a review after six months. He indicated that the investors for the restaurant are relying on his projections which include a 24 hour operation. Mr. Smith indicated that he has addressed the concerns of both the city and the neighbors. Mr. Smith suggested a compromise on the height of the flag pole at 50 feet. Arian Fuchs, 266 Elk Hills Drive, requested that the Council consider the following: · The developer complete the berm for the entire length of Dodge Avenue up to 189th Avenue. · Suggest moving some of the trees to eliminate glare. · Suggest earth tone colors for the building. * The building be complimentary fo the other buildings in the complex · The hours of operation be 6 a.m. to ] a.m. Monday through Thursday, and 24 hours Friday through Sunday and on holidays. · The flag pole be no more than 35 feet high as the flag pole is a form of advertising for the Perkins Restaurants. Mark Lee, 10934 205th Avenue, indicated that he is in favor of the restaurant operating 24 hours as it would be an asset to the community. He indicated that Elk River currently does not have a 24 hour restaurant. Elk River City Council Minutes August 21, 1975 Page 8 Bob Minton, Planning Commission Representative, indicated that the Planning Commission is in favor of Perkins operating on o 24 hour basis, but questioned whether this should be reviewed in six months. Bob Minton also indicated that the Planning Commission felt mot the flag was o means of oavertisina and therefore felt that the height of 35 feet, w~ich is consistent with signage in t"he C3 zoning district, was appropriate. Mike Kedrowski, 18837 Dodge Street, expressed his concerns regarding the location of the driveway and the headlights shining directly into his home. Councilmember Holmgren suggested that the City Council review Mr. Kedrowski's concerns offer Perkins has been in operation. City Engineer Terry Maurer indicated he would be presenting o proposal to the Council in the near future to realign Mr. Kedrowski's driveway and that he would be proposing a turn-around in the driveway by Mr. Kedrowski's garage. Eleanor Todahl, 280 Evans Avenue, indicated she is in favor of Perkins operating 24 hours as it would be an asset to the city. Mayor Duitsman indicated that he felt screening should be provided by the developer and further indicated he felt additional plantings should be provided across the street. Mayor Duitsman also stated that he was in favor of Perkins operating 24 hours a day and of the 35 foot flag pole. Earl Hohlen indicated he concurred with the Mayor. There being no further comments, Mayor Duitsman closed the public hearing. Councilmember Holmgren stated that he also concurred with Mayor Duitsman. Councilmember Farber concurred with the Mayor regarding the 24 hours and additional screening. Councilmember Forber stated that he was in favor of a 50 foot flog pole rather than o 35 foot flog pole. He stated that o 35 foot flag pole would be more obtrusive to the neighbors than a longer flog pole. Councilmember Scheel indicated that she visited the area and noted that the traffic in the area at this time is very busy. She suggested installing speed bumps to slow the traffic down as it exits Perkins' parking lot. She further indicated she had a concern regarding the height of the flag pole and with Perkins operating 24 hours because the neighbors also have an investment in their property. Councilmember Dietz indicated that Perkins Restaurant has made many improvements in their attempt to work with the city and the property owners. He further indicated he felt Perkins should be allowed to be open as a 24 hour facility. Councilmember Dietz concurred with the Planning Commission regarding the height of the flog pole at 35 feet. He suggested that Perkins should work with the neighbors across the street to screen the property.

Mr. Schmitz indicted that the applicant has adequately addressed the City of Planning Commission MeeTing Minutes July 25, 1995 Page 2 do not meet the minimum requirements of 10,000 sauare feet in size and 80 feet of frontage. Gary explained that the majority of the parcels in the Wesfwoad Subdivision measure 75' wide by 120'- 140' in depth. The ~,.,pti~.~n""~ "~ ~ can show a hardship due fo the fact that he was assessed by the City for two separate parcels. Also, the tot size and width would not be out of character within the West'wood Subdivision. Gary noted that a lot area and lot width va,dance similar to this request was approved last year. Terry Maurer explained the assessment was based on front footage. The applicant was assessed for 1,50 feet, based on the fact that there were potentially two buildable lots. Chair Kuesfer opened the public hearing. There being no comments from the public, Chair Kuesfer closed the public hearing.

COMMISSIONER SULLIVAN SECONDED THE MOTION. THE MOTION CARRIED 6-0. Dan Smith requests a conditional use permit for site plan review to construct a 4,415 square foot Perkins Family Restaurant & Bakery within the Elk River Retail Center Planned Unit Development. The restaurant is to be located in the northeast comer of Elk Hills Drive and U.S. Highway 169. Staff report by Steve Ach. Steve 'reviewed information presented in his report fo the Planning Commission regarding the site plan, drainage and utilities, parking, landscaping, and architecture. Steve suggested consideration be given to the color scheme, flag pole height and hours of operation. Steve noted that a 70' flag pole is proposed, and would be higher than other flog poles, signs and structures along Highway 169. Daniel Smith, applicant, stated the additional landscaping on the Dodge Street side and around the refuse collection site was not a problem. He added that the berm was proposed to be 2-1/2 feet. Mr. Smith requested approval for a 70 foot Planning Commission MeeTing Minutes - Juty 25, i 995 Page 3 flag pole. He stated that the flags are taken down when winds reach the 18 - 22 m.p.h, range. He stated that there was no reference in the City Code to restrictions on the height of flag poles. Dan stated that he fee!s a 24 hour operation is needed to survive financially, especially when the first restaurant opens. He stated that if Perkins determined that a 24 hour operation is not warranted, they would consider reducing hours. Mr. Smith stated the lower portion of the building's exterior wails would be a terra aorta color. Chair Kuester opened the public hearing. Eleanor Todahl, 280 Evans Avenue, expressed her support for the proposed Perkins Restaurant. She stated Elk River was known as the flag city supported the large flags typically flown by other Perkins Restaurants. Letters of support were submitted by Herbert Bahlmann, Ruth Harpster, and Cecilia Lewis, all residents at Angel Ridge Apartments. Mike KedrowskJ, 18837 Dodge Street, stated that he lives directly across the street from the proposed restaurant. He expressed concerns regarding location of the driveway, headlights from vehicles shining directly into his home, increased traffic on Dodge Street, the request for 24 hour operation, and the large flag. Arian Fuchs, 266 Elk Hills Drive, stated he felt that additional conifers and the proposed berm were essential for buffering. He suggested a 5 am opening time and 11 pm closing of the restaurant. Mr. Fuchs expressed opposition to the 70 foot flagpole. He stated he supported using earthtones for the exterior of the building. Mark Kramer, 242 Elk Hills Drive, questioned who would maintain the drainage pond. Mr. Kramer suggested that additional conifers be required to buffer the restaurant from the adjacent properties. He also suggested that some of the parking be placed on the west side of the restaurant to reduce the number of vehicle headlights shining into neighboring properties. Arian Fuchs'questioned whether or not the elevation of the site would.be brought down to be more in line with Highway 169. Steve Ach explained that grading would be done in the northern portion of the development, but he was not sure of how the final grade would compare to Highway 169. Steve indicated that the association document recorded with the planned unit development would address ownership and maintenance of the drainage pond~ Pat Hetrick, 271 Elk Hills Drive, objected to 24 hours of operation. She expressed concern that a buffer of trees was supposed to have been planted as part of the Barrington PUD and was never done. Jackie Kedrowski, 18873 Dodge Avenue, stated she felt this PUD did not address safe~ concerns regarding traffic and visual barriers. She felt there is a problem with speeding on Dodge. She referred to the road as having a "Level F" designation. Mrs. Kedrowski expressed their willingness fo work with the City and/or the developer in resolving these issues. Planning Commission Me¢ ,; Minutes July 25, 1995 Page 4 Chair Kuesfer closed the public hearing. Commissioner Tacheny questioned why the sidewalks were placed on the west side of Dodge Street. Steve Ach explained that if the sidewalk were extended north to 193rd, the west side has the least obstructions. Terry Maurer added that if was unlikely that a sidewalk would fit on the east side of Dodge, due fo the steep grade of the existing driveways. Discussion followed regarding speeding on Dodge Street. Terry explained speeding is an enforcement issue and there is little that can be done with the design of the road to reduce speeds. He stated that placement of a stop sign often causes drivers to speed up because the perceive they are losing time because of it. Terry explained the "Level F" designation for the southbound lane of Dodge Street related to gaps in traffic and delay time, rather than safety. Discussion followed regarding the elevation of the driveway for the proposed restaurant. Terry Maurer stated that the Kedrowski home elevation was approximately 950 feet, the driveway for the proposed restaurant af Dodge Avenue wou(El be 946 feet, and the restaurant itself would be at 942 feet. Commissioner Minton stated that the 4 foot drop in elevation should cause headlights to be directed into the embankment, rather than into the homes. Tom Dillon suggested that the Perkins driveway be flattened out so that vehicle headlights would project into the bank, rather than upwards. Commissioner Sullivan questioned how strongly Mr. Smith felt about the 70 foot flagpole. He stated he strongly favored the 70 foot flagpole, but that he did not want the issue to slow down the process. Commissioner Minton stated that he felt the large flag was used as a method of advertising and that a smaller flag would serve just as well. Discussion was carded on regarding the hours of operation. Dan Smith explained that new Perkins Restaurants are open for 24 hours, and reviewed after six months to determine if the 24 hour operation is cost-effective. He requested that he be allowed to try the 24 hour operation initially, and make adjustments in the hours if conditions warrant. Arlon Fuchs stated he felt it would be more appropriate to start with reduced hours, and review in six months for 24 hour operation. Commissioner Tacheny stated he felt the 24 hour operation could be tested and then reviewed in six months, so that the impact of noise and lights on the neighboring properties could be assessed. Mr. Smith expressed his willingness to meet with the neighbors to resolve issues of concem. Steve Ach responded to Commissioner Minton's question concerning trees and berming by stating that 6 - 8 foot pine trees would be included in the landscaping plan. He added that there will be a grade change from the parking lot to the street and that an additional berm could be added for buffering.

Steve Ach indicated that he and Dan Smith met with some of the affected property owners to discuss the concerns with the proposed Perkins Restaurant. Steve Ach reviewed the concerns of the residents along with what action has been taken to adaress these concerns: · The location of the driveway from the restaurant onto Dodge Street. · The headlights from vehicles either leaving the restaurant or circulating on site. · Increased traffic on Dodge Street. · Restaurant being open 24 hours a day. · Hours that trucks will be making deliveries to the restaurant site. · Height of the flag pole. · Architecture of the building having earth tone colors that will be more compatible with the residential area. Steve Ach indicated that the Planning Commission reviewed the request and recommended approval of the conditional use permit to construct a restaurant with the conditions that were outlined in the staff report. Steve Ach suggested that the Council add stipulation #10, "'That additional landscaping be installed along the east side of the storm drainage pond to minimize the headlight glare from vehicles towards the residential area and that this landscaping be completed as part af Phase 1. Mayor Duitsman opened the public hearing. Applicant Dan Smith informed the Council that the issue of Perkins being open 24 hours is very important. He indicated he is not in favor of the Planning Commission's recommendation to allow the 24 hour operation 7 days a week with a review after six months. He indicated that the investors for the restaurant are relying on his projections which include a 24 hour operatian. Mr. Smith indicated that he has addressed the concerns of both the city and the neighbors. Mr. Smith suggested a compromise on the height of the flag pole at 50 feet. Arian Fuchs, 266 Elk Hills Drive, requested that the Council consider the following: · The developer complete the berm for the entire length of Dodge Avenue up to 189th Avenue. · Suggest moving some of the trees to eliminate glare. · Suggest earth tone colors for the building. · The building be complimentary'to the other buildings in the complex · The hours of operation be 6 a.m. to 1 a.m. Monday through Thursday, and 24 haurs Friday through Sunday and on holidays. · The flag pole be no more than 35 feet high as the flag pole is a form of advertising for the Perkins Restaurants. Mark Lee, 10934 205th Avenue, indicated that he is in favor of the restaurant operating 24 hours as it would be an asset to the community. He indicated that Elk River currently does not have a 24 hour restaurant. Elk River City Council Minutes Page 8 August 2 I. 1995 Bob Minton, Planning Commission Representative, indicaied that the Planning Commission is in favor of Perkins operating on a 24 hour basis, but questioned whether this should be reviewed in six months. Bob Minton also indicated that the Planning Commission felt that the flag was a means of advertising and therefore felt that the height of 35 feet, which is consistent with signage in the C3 zoning district, was appropriate. Mike Kedrowski, 18837 Dodge Street, expressed his concerns regarding the location of the drivewcy and the headlights shining directly into his home. Councilmember Holmgren suggested that the City Council review Mr. Kedrowski's concerns after Perkins has been in operation. City Engineer Terry Maurer indicated he would be presenting a proposal to the Council in the near future to realign Mr. Kedrowski's driveway and that he would be proposing a turn-around in the driveway by Mr. Kearowski's garage. Eleanor Todahl, 280 Evans Avenue, indicated she is in favor of Perkins operating 24 hours as it would be an asset to the city. Mayor Duitsman indicated that he felt screening should be provided by the developer and further indicated he felt additional plantings should be provided across the street. Mayor Duitsman also stated that he was in favor of Perkins operating 24 hours a day and of the 35 foot flag pole. Earl Hohlen indicated he concurred with the Mayor. There being no further comments, Mayor Duitsman closed the public hearing. Councilmember Holmgren stated that he also concurred with Mayor Duitsman. Councilmember Farber concurred with the Mayor regarding the 24 hours and additional screening. Councilmember Farber stated that he was in favor of a 50 foot flag pole rather than a 35 foot flag pole. He stated that a 35 foot flag pole would be more obtrusive to the neighbors than a longer flog pole. Councilmember Scheel indicated that she visited the area and noted that the traffic in the area at this time is very busy. She suggested installing speed bumps to slow the traffic down as it exits Perkins' parking lot. She further indicated she had a concern regarding the height of the flag pole and with Perkins operating 24 hours because the neighbors also have an investment in their property. Councilmember Dietz indicated' that Perkins Restaurant has made many improvements in their attempt to work with the city and the property owners. He further indicated he felt Perkins should be allowed to be open as a 24 hour facility. Councilmember Dietz concurred with the Planning Commission regarding the height of the flag pole at 35 feet. He suggested that Perkins should work with the neighbors across the street to screen the property.
