MINUTES <br />PLANNING COMMISSION <br />APRIL 12, 2018 <br /> <br /> - 3 - <br />approved. Schwalbach stated that he has a hard time approving this <br />deviation when others have been denied. <br /> <br />Mr. Kjos stated that he will remove the painted sign if he has to, but would <br />like to be able to have a sign on the door that shows the entrance to the <br />billiard hall. Mr. Smith would like to keep the freestanding sign for <br />Poolside. Schwalbach clarified that the issue was not needing more than <br />684 square feet of total signage. <br /> <br /> There were no comments from the public. <br /> <br />Johnson recommended approving the Planned Unit Development <br />Comprehensive Sign Plan Amendment for 80 Little Canada Road East by <br />allowing a total of 684 square feet of signage on the building, and allowing <br />an exception for TNT Billiard Products to keep the existing metal panel <br />sign on the north elevation but remove the painted artwork signage on the <br />west elevation, with the understanding that TNT Billiard Products can add <br />another sign on the west elevation that is consistent with the existing north <br />elevation sign and can be lit with down lighting, and TNT Billiard Products <br />must receive city staff approval of the lighting style with the sign permit. <br />The freestanding sign can be retained but must be within the overall 684 <br />square foot allowance. <br /> <br />Motion seconded by Schwalbach. <br />Motion carried 7 – 0. <br /> <br /> <br /> The City Planner explained the property owner of 2320 Preserve Trail and <br />475 Viking Drive E. has requested a simple subdivision to create a third lot <br />from the existing two lots. He noted that the properties are zoned R-1, <br />Single Family Residential, and all three lots comply with the applicable R- <br />1 District size requirements. He stated that the property owner has <br />indicated that he plans to build a single family home on the new lot in the <br />future. The City Planner explained that the survey does not show the <br />required six foot perimeter drainage and utility easements around all three <br />lots, which will be a condition of approval. He noted that there is currently <br />an existing six foot drainage and utility easement around three sides of the <br />2320 Preserve Trail parcel, however with the lot line adjustments being <br />proposed, this will impact this easement on the west side. Also the survey <br />has shown that an existing 12 foot drainage easement for Parcel B, 475 <br />Viking Drive, at the southwest corner of the lot will be vacated. The City <br />Planner stated that the applicant will need to apply to have these easements <br />vacated. He explained that there is also a 20 foot MnDOT storm sewer <br />easement that runs north to south on 2320 Preserve Trail and the newly <br />created Lot C. He noted that staff has talked with the applicant about <br />SUBDIVISION OF <br />2320 PRESERVE <br />TRAIL AND 475 <br />VIKING DRIVE E.
