MINUTES CITY COUNCIL APRIL 24, 1991 Scalze stated that the Council will need to see a landscape plan for the property. Darr replied that the landscape plan will be part of the final plat. Scalze noted that at the Planning Commission's meeting the residents of the area brought up the fact that lights from the industrial park are shining onto their properties. Darr replied that Code requires that lighting not shine onto adjacent property. Darr pointed out that the elevations being proposed would be 10 feet higher than the light standards in the industrial park. LaValle felt that if the road connected with the industrial park, there should be weight restrictions posted on the residential road. The City Engineer pointed out that the road would be constructed to residential standards, and would not support industrial truck traffic. A resident of the area stated that if semis find a short-cut, they will use it. The resident felt that if the connection were made one-way it would be difficult to enforce, especially during the early morning hours. Darr pointed out that the connection would provide another access into the area especially for emergency vehicles should Jackson Street be blocked off. The residents stated that one access into the area has never been a problem in the past. Fasciana stated that if access is provided by his property, he would like the road lowered slightly so that his yard will drain towards the street. The City Enqineer replied that there is room to do this. The owner of Rue Plastics reported that there is a piece of City property adjacent to his, and asked if there was a way that he could use this land for additional parking. The City Administrator reported that staff has not been able to locate the final plat for the industrial park, however, the landscape plan for the park shows that this land was donated to the City for park.
