SUBJECT: Case No. CU 00-31
Request by Independent School District for Conditional Use Permit
for Interim Use; Public Hearing
Request
The School District is requesting an interim use permit to continue the use of a

between the Senior High and Vandenberg. This parking area was constructed in
ID the middle of the 1999-2000 school year.

Overview
On December 13, 1999 the City Council approved a request by the School
District to use the athletic field between the Senior High and Vandenberg as a
temporary parking lot for the remainder of the 1999-2000 school year. The
School District wanted to use this area to replace parking lost when they closed
the parking lot at the Oak Knoll baseball fields.
The School District is again requesting to use the same field as temporary
parking. They would like to use this area as parking from August 15, 2000 to
June 15, 2002. As they did last year, no improvements are proposed for the area,
including Class V. The area will be about 345 feet long by 135 feet wide and
delineated with stakes and ropes. Staff suggests that because this will be used
for parking for 2 years, a more durable surface such as class five be installed.
• Access to the lot would be through the existing entrance from School Street.

Once funding can be found, additional permanent parking will be provided west
• of the present lot. At that time, the School District will be back before the City with
a request for a conditional use permit for the permanent parking lot.

interim use permit for temporary parking with the following condition:
1. The interim use permit is effective from August 15, 2000 to June 15, 2002
2. The parking are be surfaced with class V.

Dear Pat,
I am requesting approval for temporary parking west of the
existing high school parking lot as per attached drawing. This would
be in effect from August 15, 2000 to June 15, 2002. The purpose of
this proposal is to continue to allow the closing of the Oak Knoll
baseball parking lot for safety reasons. The school district is
concerned about the safety of students crossing County Road #1 .
Upon passage of the bond issue, Phase II of the parking lot will be
completed creating additional permanent parking west of the present
lot. Thank you for your consideration in this matter.
Si, cer- y,
/ / /Sj)

MEMORANDUM
�� , River
TO: Mayor & City Council
FROM: Michele McPherso , Director of Planning
DATE: December 13, 1999
SUBJECT: Temporary Parking Lot, Elk River High
School
Request
The School District requests permission to build a temporary parking lot connected to
and west of their newly reconstructed parking lot.
Attachments
• Location Map
II/
• Letter from Ron Bratlie, Director of Support Services, ISD #728
• Map of Parking Lot, New Parking Area
Analysis
In order to prevent students from crossing Proctor Road, the School District has
decided to close the parking lot adjacent to the Oak Knoll baseball fields/park.
Students are currently crossing Proctor Road in the middle of the street and not using
the approved crosswalk.
To provide additional parking, the School District would like to allow parking in a
designated area on the athletic field between the High School and Vandenberg. The
area would be marked by stakes and strings and would provide four rows of additional
parking. Access would be gained through the "welcome center" off of School Street. At '
this time, the School District is proposing no improvements to this area, including no
class V. This area is proposed to be Phase H of the parking lot expansion.
While the zoning ordinance does not address "temporary" or "interim" uses at this time,
approval of this request is appropriate for public safety reasons. The School District is
requesting use of this area until June 15, 2000, at which time the area should be
restored, the parking lot expanded (if the referendum passes), or an Interim Use Permit
IIIbe approved.
