COMMUNITYGROWTH <br /> I N S T I T U T E <br /> May 30, 2007 <br /> Mayor and City Council <br /> City of Pequot Lakes <br /> 4638 County Road 11 <br /> Pequot Lakes, MN 56472 <br /> Re: Planning Commission Report <br /> Dear Mayor and City Council, <br /> The Planning Commission met for their regularly scheduled May meeting at which they held <br /> three public hearings. The Planning Commission approved a variance for building height on an <br /> industrial structure, denied a variance for a sign request, and denied a conditional use permit <br /> request for a helicopter operation. <br /> The Planning Commission unanimously denied the conditional use permit request for the <br /> helicopter ride operation based on the following findings: <br /> 1. The application meets the definition of the airport,which is an excluded use. <br /> 2. Condition 12 of the Crafter's Mall CUP prohibits this additional use on the proposed <br /> property. <br /> For the application for a conditional use permit for the Helicopter Ride Operation, <br /> submitted by Ace Helicopters, Inc., the Planning Commission is recommending(5- <br /> i)that the application fee be refunded,less the cost to publicize the hearing. <br /> We do not plan on attending the upcoming City Council meeting, unless requested. Please do <br /> not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> COMMUNITY GROWTH INSTITUTE <br /> LisaBeth Barajas&Charles Marohn, PE <br /> City Planners <br /> CC: Planning Commission <br /> Sandy Peine, City Clerk <br /> Dawn Bittner,Zoning Administrator <br /> \.. <br /> 14084 Baxter Drive, Suite 7 1 Baxter, Minnesota 56425 1 218.828.3064 1 www.communitygrowth.com <br />
