Commissioner Anderson will attend the February 18, 1997 City Council Meeting.
Staff report by Steve Ach. The City of Elk River is requesting a conditional use
permit for site plan review to construct a 12,818 sq. ft. off-sale liquor store at the
northeast corner of 193rd and Highway 169 (Lot 1, Block 1, Hillside Crossing) and
amend the PUD agreement for Hillside I and II to allow wall signage similar to Elk
Park Center.
Gary Tushie of Tushie-Montgomery and Associates, Inc., the City of Elk River's
project consultant, presented plans for the proposed liquor store. Mr. Tushie
reviewed the building location, design and layout, landscaping, traffic circulation
and parking. Mr. Tushie noted rather than striping the parking lot for 8 car-trailer
parking spaces, Mr. Dolejs has recommended striping the parking lot for
passenger vehicles and allow car-trailer parking to occur wherever it may be
convenient, as is the case at the current liquor store site.
Steve Ach indicated staff recommends the Planned Unit Development
Agreement for Hillside Crossing be amended to allow 2 walls signs to be placed
on the two freestanding sites in the development, which is consistent with the
signage requirements in Elk Park Center.
Chair Anderson opened the public hearing. There being no comments from the
public, Chair Anderson closed the public hearing.
Commissioner Mesich questioned where the proposed reader board would be
located, and, if the building would have a sprinkler fire protection system. Mr.
Tushie indicated the electronic reader board would be placed over the main
entrance doors, and that the building would be sprinklered.
Commissioner Sullivan suggested if parking became a problem on Evans Street, it
be posted "no parking" . Discussion followed regarding parking and the sidewalk
along the west side of Evans from 193rd Avenue.

Staff report by Scott Harlicker. Deana Larsen is requesting a conditional use
permit to allow therapeutic massage as part of her Waterfall Day Spa business at
705 Main Street. The business also includes tanning booths, facials, pedicures,
and a retail section. Due to a fire at their original location at 657 Main Street, Ms.
Larsen is leasing this space until their permanent location is secured in the Snyder
building. There will be one licensed massage therapist. Hours of operation are
Monday through Friday 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Saturday 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. The
applicant received a sign permit of a 2' by 8' wall sign. Staff recommends
approval of the request with the conditions outlined in the staff report.
.
Scott Harlicker explained that since the conditional use permit goes with the
property, after the applicant moves, if someone leased the site within one year,
.

they would be able to operate a therapeutic massage business under this
conditional use permit, but they would need to obtain a license for massage from
the City of Elk River.
Chair Anderson questioned how long the applicant anticipated leasing the
present site. Ms. Larsen stated approximately 6 months.
Commissioner Sullivan questioned if the applicant would be required to make a
new application when she moved to the Snyder building. Steve Ach stated she
would be required to make application and go through the conditional use
permit process but would not be charged additional fees.
Chair Anderson opened the public hearing. There being no comments from the
public, Chair Anderson closed the public hearing.

Staff report by Scott Harlicker. W.J.C. Development Corporation is requesting
preliminary plat approval to subdivide approximately 9 acres located at the
southeast corner of 210th Avenue and Ogden Street into 3 single family residential
lots. Scott reviewed information in the staff report regarding existing structures,
access to the proposed three lots, minimum lot size requirements, streets, well and
septic systems, and proposed drainage easements. Scott explained staff has
proposed 210th right of way be extended to the end of the plat, rather than the
cul-de-sac as shown on the preliminary plat, so that if the property to the east
were to be developed, a road connection could be made. Staff recommends
approval of the request with the conditions outlined in the report.
Commissioner Cote asked if the lots would meet minimum lot size if the lot lines
were adjusted. Scott indicated the developer felt he would be able to meet the
requirements.
Chair Anderson opened the public hearing.
.
Howard Hommes, resident adjacent to the subject property off Ogden Street,
expressed his objection to the proposed road due the close proximity to his
private road. Mr. Hommes indicated he is concerned he may be assessed for the
new road and has spent approximately $8,000 on his private road in the last 10
years. Mr. Hommes indicated he would receive no benefit from the road and
asked if his taxes would be affected. Steve Ach indicated staff would not be
able to answer Mr. Hommes questions regarding taxes, but explained the public

road would be constructed and paid for by the developer of the plat. Steve
added all adjacent property owners would have access to the proposed road.
Scott indicated there is approximately 20 - 25 feet between Mr. Hommes existing
driveway and the travel lane of the proposed new roadway. Mr. Hommes
questioned the possibility of 21 Oth becoming a major east-west corridor. Terry
Maurer indicated the city has no plans and is looking more closely at an alternate
location for an east-west corridor. Commissioner Cote asked Mr. Hommes if his
neighbor to the west used his driveway. Mr. Hommes indicated the neighbor has
his own driveway. Mr. Hommes further objected to the increased traffic near his
property.
Discussion followed regarding the history of Mr. Hommes property development
and private road, and the concern for having a dead end road.
Del Bowers, 20954 Ogden Avenue, expressed concern regarding snow removal
and drainage run-off from the two roadways. He suggested the developer
consider placing the road to the north of the property.
Diane Kohl, 20936 Ogden, expressed concern for the 2-1/2 acre minimum lot size
and felt it should be at least 5 acres, since the area is adjacent to what may
potentially be a state park someday. She stated the gun range has an
agreement with the DNR for first option to purchase.
.
Mike Dehn, 20932 Ogden, did not want to see the proposed road blacktopped
because he felt Ogden would then be blacktopped and he cannot afford the
assessment.
Scott Brabec, 13822 211th Avenue NW, asked why the road had to be
blacktopped. Terry Maurer explained blacktopping is a city standard. Mr.
Brabec asked if the city had plans to upgrade 211 th Avenue to city standards.
Terry stated he is aware of no plans in the capital improvement program for
improving 211 th, but the city would likely bring it up to city standard at some
point in the future. Mr. Brabec expressed his opposition to 210th being
blacktopped.
Teresa Hommes, 20962 Ogden, noted her concerns for the safety of her brothers
and sisters due to traffic on the proposed road. Also, she felt flooding of their
road would be worse in the spring.
Diane Kohl felt there would be less damage to trees if the road were on the north
side of the property.
.
Bill Christian, applicant, explained cooperation from the neighbor to the north
would be necessary to place the proposed road on the north property line, and
at this point, the neighbor is not interested. Mr. Christian noted that if they were
to try to locate the road entirely on Mr. Lesnar's property, the two buildings on the
north end of Mr. Lesnar's property are too close together to put the road
between them. Mr. Christian stated they have tried but were unable to reach an
agreement with Mr. Hommes to locate the road where his current driveway is,
which would minimize some of the tree damage. Mr. Christian requested that
the city not require blacktopping of the road, and was aware of the neighbors
.

concerns that the road not be blacktopped. He noted they are willing to extend
the road easement to the east property line as requested.
Howard Hommes stated he wanted to see the road blacktopped now so that he
would not be assessed for it in the future. He felt Mr. Lesnar should be required to
move his pole building and locate the road on the north.
There being no further public comments, Chair Anderson closed the public
hearing.
Staff and members of the Commission discussed the possibility of locating the
road on the north. It was the consensus that it would not be possible if the
property owner to the north was unwilling to participate.
Steve Ach explained how a temporary road easement would be granted to cul-
de-sac the road for the present, and permanent easements would be obtained
to extend the road in the future.

Staff report by Steve Ach. Holiday Companies, Inc. is requesting a conditional use
permit to operate a 4,232 sq. ft. motor vehicle service station/convenience store
and a 973 sq. ft. drive-through car wash, at northeast corner of Freeport Ave. and
School Street (Lot 1. Block 1. Heying Addition). Steve reviewed issues related to
parking, landscaping and signage. Staff recommends Holiday's freestanding
signage be consistent with other recent developments along Highway 1 69. Staff
further recommends the west side of Holiday's canopy be "blocked out" or
turned off during the evening hours so no lighting is projected toward the
residential properties to the west.
Staff recommends approval of the conditional use permit for Holiday Station
Stores with the 12 conditions outlined in the report to the Planning Commission
dated January 28, 1997.
Commissioner Minton questioned whether or not the existing pine trees shown on
the plans will remain. Steve Ach indicated given the grading for the storm ponds
the trees will be lost. The developer will attempt to relocate the trees on-site.
.
Chair Anderson opened the public hearing. There being no comments from the
public, Chair Anderson closed the public hearing.
