MINUTES CITY COUNCIL December 27, 1989 this with the City Engineer who indicated that a building addition could go on the west. Philbrook also reported that due to financing, he is not sure when an addition might take place. Also, at this time, funding to put in a parking lot is non-existent. Philbrook reported that it would be his intention to put in the parking lot at the time an addition went in. The City Planner indicated that the off-site parking proposed was O.K. by conditional use permit, however, a lay-out for the site showing future parking is needed. Blesener felt the use proposed for the site was a good one. Scalze asked if the CUP ran with the property. The City Planner replied that it did as long as the use of the property remained the same. Scalze was concerned about a retail operation on the site. The Planner stated the CUP would not run to a retail operation, but would to another office use. Philbrook reported that his purchase agreement indicates that the use of the property must be non-retail/commercial as long as St. John's Church is located across the street. Philbrook requested that the Council also consider the concept of a future addition on the west side of the building. Philbrook reported that parking could be run behind the building. The City Engineer has indicated that the addition could go over the City's sewer easement. The City Engineer explained that the storm sewer is an overflow from Savage Lake into the ditch. The sewer is located 18 feet deep, and would be very expensive to move. The City Engineer described the type of pipe that it was and reported that he never heard of this type of pipe collapsing. The Engineer pointed out that the City would still retain its easement. Philbrook reported that it was his understanding that due to the depth of the pipe if repairs were necessary, the City would tunnel to do those repairs. Page 16
