Mr. Burslie explained the additional conditions. Planning Commission Member Birch <br /> asked how we define scrap. <br /> Mr.Andersen reiterated the Staff Report by stating exterior storage is now a permitted <br /> use and would not require a Conditional Use Permit as it did in 200�. Now Staff is <br /> suggesting adding conditions regarding tidiness where a Conditional Use Permit in not <br /> required. This should be a moot point. No one else in the Industrial Park would have <br /> conditions placed on their exterior storage. <br /> Mr. Andersen stated Condition Number 2 had been complied with. The trees were <br /> planted in the 6-month period. <br /> Mr. Andersen further stated placing an additional condition for neatness is arbitrary <br /> and offensive. He is not in favor of any additional conditions being placed on his <br /> property. <br /> Mr. Andersen had mentioned his billboard had been delayed due to this and Chair <br /> Hallan asked Staff if the two issues were related. Staff stated the City couldn't issue the <br /> permit for the billboard while Mr.Andersen was technically in violation of the previous <br /> condition for screening which he is requesting be removed. <br /> With regard to proposed Condition Number 2 regarding a neat and orderly condition, <br /> Chair Hallan asked Staff if the City has received complaints regarding the e�cterior <br /> storage. Staff indicated they had not. <br /> With regard to proposed Condition Number 3 regarding storage of scrap material, Chair <br /> Hallan offered to define scrap material as wood byproducts. The wood byproducts are <br /> stored on the southern 2/3 of the property. Mr. Andersen concurred,but stated he <br /> doesn't want the Planning Commission to tell him where he can store materials. He <br /> needs to do what is most efficient for his business. He requested it be on record that he <br /> is not agreeing to specific areas to store things. He will store it in the most safe, efficient <br /> and aesthetic manner that he can. <br /> When asked, Mr. Burslie stated the proposed Condition Number 3 is similar to other <br /> conditions placed on manufacturing businesses. The Planning Commission doesn't <br /> need to use it. <br /> Planning Commission Member Paulbeck asked if the Planning Commission needs to <br /> stay with the screening requirements if there have been no complaints on a business in <br /> the Industrial zone doing business like other businesses in his industry. He is referring <br /> to the proposed third condition. Planning Commission Member Paulbeck stated Mr. <br /> Andersen isn't being messy; it is the nature of that industry. <br /> MINUTES 12 <br /> Pequot Lakes Planning Commission <br /> June 20, 2oi9 <br />
