The City Administrator reported that demolition of the former Venetian building will begin on November 20"'.

The Council began its review of the concept plan for the Drywall Supply Addition as proposed by Carl Johnson, owner of the property, as well as the concept plan supported by City staff. The City Administrator noted that the one item in contention between the two plans is whether or not the third canopy on the property can stay. Carl Johnson is requesting retention of this third canopy and utilizing it for screening while City staff is recommending its removal. Scalze noted the City Engineer's comments relative to storm water ponding on the site and noted that she does not see the pond locations on the diagrams included in the Council's packets. The City Administrator noted a separate drawing existed showing a proposed pond in the southeast corner of the property that Mr. Johnson is concerned about. He also reported that the City Engineer will be meeting to review this issue to determine if there is a w ylto limit the rate of neer flow from this site will minimizing impact to the development potential of the property. This issue will be resolved prior to action on the final plat for the property. The City Administrator suggested that the Council could act on the issues of the Preliminary Plat, Development Stage PUD, and Rezoning of the back portion of the property from BW to I -1 subject to execution ofa Development Agreement. The Administrator noted that the Development Agreement could then be presented to the Council for action in December along with the Final Plat. The City Administrator again noted that the only issue of contention between the property owner and City staff is that of the third canopy. Carl Johnson, Drywall Supply, presented a diagram showing his proposal to use this third canopy as screening for the back lot. He noted that the canopy would be convened to a three -sided building, and would be joined to the existing 16,000 square foot steel building located behind the former Knox building. This would provide for a long structure that would totally screen the Drywall Supply business that would be located on the back lot. Johnson indicated that the canopy could be surfaced with stucco, if the Council desired, to improve the appearance of the structure. Johnson reviewed a diagram showing the 16,000 square foot steel structure. He noted his plan to add an addition to this building for office space. At the time the addition was placed on the building, the canopy would be connected to it as well.
