Motion carried. <br /> APPLICANT: Preserve Golf Course Environmental Advisory Committee <br /> Applicant Proposes to Review the Conditions of the Existing Conditional <br /> Use Permit <br /> Mr. Burslie explained the Staff Report. Tom Beaver, Chairman of the Environmental <br /> Advisory Committee was also present. <br /> Mr. Burslie read the two new conditions and noted that the original approval from Crow <br /> Wing County did not include any Findings of Fact; Zoning Administrator Bittner created <br /> new Findings of Fact to include. <br /> Planning Commission Member Oraskovich stated this golf course was very controversial <br /> when it was built; it has been very well managed. That is why some of the conditions <br /> have been deleted;these are good changes. <br /> Public Comment: <br /> Tom Beaver,26834 Pine Acres Road, Nisswa—The Cullen's had a lot at stake in 1993. <br /> Many of the holes are bordered by wetlands. Flowage from the fens went into the <br /> Cullen's. Instead of an Environmental Assessment Worksheet,the Advisory Committee <br /> was formed. Grand View has assumed management of this course. There has been a <br /> steady decrease of phosphorus. The Committee picked areas that were potentially <br /> dangerous to monitor. There will always be an Advisory Committee. <br /> Mr. Beaver submitted a letter from the Cullen Lakes Association,which is made a part of <br /> these Minutes,which stated in part that"the Cullen Lakes Association Board of <br /> Directors has no objections to the proposed changes to these conditions". <br /> Dan Helbling, 20422 North Pinewood Drive, Pequot Lakes — Mr. Helbling stated he <br /> doesn't have a lot of problems with the changes to the conditions; he was the original <br /> developer. He asked why Condition #2 is being struck. (2. The applicant shall provide <br /> a copy of the executed lease/easement agreement providing permanent access to the <br /> site from County Road 107.) Mr. Helbling was told the roadway has been constructed; <br /> he stated he doesn't see any reason to strike it. <br /> MINUTES 4 <br /> Pequot Lakes Planning Commission <br /> June 18, 2015 <br />
