SUBJECT: A. Ordinance Amendment for
Recycling Centers in the C3
District, Case No. OA 96-15
B. Rezoning of the Northeast
Corner of Highway 10 & 165th
Avenue, Case No. ZC 96-19
C. Land Use Plan Amendment for the
Property at the Northeast Corner
of Highway 10 & 165th, Case No.
LU 96-5
• The City Council recently initiated all three of these applications in response
to a request by a prospective business who wanted to locate a used car
dealership at the northeast corner of Highway 10 and 165th. In order to
accommodate this particular use, the rezoning and land use plan amendment
needed to be completed along with an ordinance amendment to address the
existing recycling center that is located within the building. Staff has
recently received a letter (see attached) from the property owner requesting
that the rezoning of the property from light industrial to highway commercial
be put on hold due to inquiries that the property owner has received from
prospective businesses that would fit within the current zoning designation.
Therefore, staff has withdrawn the applications from the agenda and are not
requesting any action from the Planning Commission. However, if the
Commission feels strongly that any of these three applications should
proceed forward, staff will bring this recommendation to the City Council and
those issues may be brought back before the Commission for consideration
next month.

Re: Zoning change
16501 Hwy 10
Elk River
This letter is to request holding a zoning change on above property.
We have interested tenants with businesses that are suitable for the
present zoning of Light Industrial . We feel that a zoning change would
not be beneficial to us or the Elk River coffliuunity.
Thank you for your consideration of this request,
