December 16, 2003 Valor Enterprises Attn: Fred Sedaghat 3165 Spruce Street Little Canada, MN 55117 RE: CUP Amendment Dear Mr. Sedaghat: During the last Planning Commission meeting on November 13, 2003, your amendment to the current CUP was tabled subject to the business owner submitting a proposed site plan for the property, a response to the City Engineer's drainage plan, and subject to Valor Enterprises signing a 60 -day waiver agreement. You have signed the 60 -day waiver agreement, however, the matter was only tabled until the January cycle. Following the Planning Commission meeting on Monday, November 17, you came into city offices and met with our City Planner, Joel Hanson, and myself. At that time, we agreed that you would have the grading of your site evaluated as to possible options to improve drainage. This was necessary as you did not agree with the opinion of our engineer. It was also explained that you needed to submit a new site plan showing a more detailed layout for the property with more "realistic" outdoor storage expectations. It was understood during that meeting, that these items needed to be resubmitted by Monday, December 22, 2003. I called you today to remind you of the upcoming deadline to submit this paperwork. On the phone you indicated you did not agree to hire an engineer and you had no intention of spending any more money on this process. As a result, I wanted to send this letter to make you aware of the options you have for proceeding with your CUP amendment. 1. Come into city offices and sign another 60 -day waiver to allow for more time on your end to complete the site plan and grading options. This will require you to complete your evaluations and design by no later than Monday, February 23, 2004. Processing of your application would then continue in the March planning cycle. - 2 0 -
