i <br /> stated Mr. Walberg brought up a good point;why screen his business from the roadway. <br /> The Comprehensive Plan references"up north character". If you drive through Baxter i <br /> there are no trees,just shrubs and small trees. In Pequot Lakes there are mature trees, a �' <br /> different sort of feel, and that is the reason for the ordinance. I <br /> Mr.Walberg stated to the north there are 2o acres of trees. Chair Hallan stated there i <br /> are trees all the way to the Canadian border. Mr.Walberg stated he wasn't trying to be , <br /> smug,just pointing out there are trees in that area. Mr.Walberg's mechanic stated the '�� <br /> log building is almost entirely blocked by trees. Chair Hallan stated they have not <br /> provided a survey to scale providing the coverage. Mr.Walberg's mechanic asked why <br /> the 50%screening was not included in the previous CUP. Mr. Burslie stated the , <br /> previous CUP required a landscape plan acceptable to the Planning Commission. The <br /> Planning Commission was to review it and make sure it met the 50%screening , <br /> requirement. It may not have specifically stated 50%screening requirement in the CUP, <br /> but a landscape plan was required which would indicate screening. <br /> Planning Commission Member Wilson asked Mr. Burslie if the fence needed to be io <br /> feet from the property line. Mr. Burslie stated privacy fences can go 3 feet from the <br /> property line to allow you to maintain the fence without going on the neighbor's <br /> property. The fence needs to be on Mr.Walberg's property and we would recommend 3 <br /> feet from the property line. Mr. Burslie further explained that Staff indicated in the <br /> Staff Report that the fence begin in the southeast corner of applicant's property and <br /> continue west a distance of 20o feet creating a visual buffer between the two commercial <br /> businesses. <br /> Planning Commission Member Birch stated he is confused by the fence. Mr.Walberg's <br /> mechanic stated there is a neighbor dispute. Planning Commission Member Birch <br /> stated a fence would just block one car business from another car business. If fire access <br /> is to be from the DNR property, a fence may inhibit that. Chair Hallan stated there is a <br /> screening requirement and the fence was offered as an alternate to planting trees for <br /> screening. <br /> Planning Commission Member Paulbeck stated a fence is not an up north look; <br /> screening by trees would be an up north look. <br /> Mr.Walberg's mechanic stated the area indicated by Mr. Burslie for the fence is not <br /> where they plan to place the fence. They only plan to put a fence from the back of the <br /> front building to the front of the back building. <br /> Planning Commission Member Birch stated if he is standing in the Crow Wing Auto <br /> Body parldng lot, it is not an up north feel. It is an auto body business looking at a car <br /> dealership. <br /> MINVTES 5 <br /> Pequot Lakes Planning Commission <br /> January i�,2oig <br />
