<br /> <br /> STAFF REPORT <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />TO: Mayor Keis and Members of City Council <br /> <br />FROM: Chris Heineman, City Administrator <br /> <br />DATE: December 18, 2019 <br /> <br />RE: Approve FRA-DOR Interim Use Permit and Agreement <br /> <br /> <br />ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: <br />Motion to Approve the Interim Use Permit and Agreement for Aggregate Stockpiling and Recycling <br />for FRA-DOR, Inc. in the City of Little Canada. <br /> <br />BACKGROUND: <br />At the Council meeting on September 25, 2019, the City Council conducted a Public Hearing to consider <br />a requested renewal of an Interim Use Permit (IUP) for FRA-DOR, Incorporated. After the Public <br />Hearing, the City Council adopted Resolution 2019-9-106 approving the renewal of a 20-year Interim <br />Use Permit to FRA-DOR, Inc. for aggregate stockpiling and recycling at 3101 and 3137 Country Drive, <br />pending final approval of the Interim Use Permit and Agreement. <br /> <br />The action before you tonight for your consideration is the final draft of this agreement. I worked closely <br />with City Attorney Chad Lemmons to revise the previous Interim Use Permit and Agreement. All of the <br />terms that were discussed and conditionally approved at the September 25th City Council meeting have <br />been incorporated, including the following: <br />1) Amended contract language to reflect City Council action taken on September 25, 2019. <br />2) Extended the term of Interim Use Agreement from five (5) years to twenty (20) years. <br />3) Revised aggregate materials storage and processing “License Fee” to include annual increase <br />based on changes to the Consumer Price Index (CPI). <br />4) Deleted the sections related to “Mutual Intent to Re-Develop” (Previous sections 20-22) <br />5) Reformatted the entire document as recommended by City Attorney. <br /> <br />The Planning Commission considered the request for renewal of the Interim Use Permit at their meeting <br />on September 12, 2019. The site is zoned I-2, General Industrial, which allows this type of use by <br />Interim Use Permit. A motion to recommend approval of an Interim Use Permit at 3101 and 3137 <br />Country Drive for an additional 20 years, or such time limit agreed to by the City Council was <br />unanimously approved by the Planning Commission (7-0). <br /> <br />RECOMMENDED ACTION: <br />Staff recommends final approval of the attached Interim Use Permit and Agreement for Aggregate <br />Stockpiling and Recycling for FRA-DOR, Inc. in the City of Little Canada, Minnesota.
