Hanson, City Administrator <br />DATE: February 22, 2001 <br />RE: Precision Tree & Landscape <br />MAYOR <br />Michael I. Fahey <br />COUNCIL, <br />Beverly Scalze <br />Jim LaValle <br />Matt Anderson <br />Rick Montour <br />ADMINISTRATOR <br />Joel R. Hanson <br />At the May 9, 2000 Council meeting, we tabled action on the Precision Tree Conditional <br />Use Permit and Variance pending a staff report on Tax Increment financing to assist this <br />project (a waiver from the 60 -day rule pending receipt of this report was received from <br />the applicant). <br />Staff reviewed this matter and discovered that TIF assistance is not possible due to the <br />nature of Precision Landscape & Tree's business. The use must be industrial or <br />warehousing in nature to qualify for the creation of a new TIF district. Given their <br />modifications to the site design and our approval of an agreement with them to allow the <br />sale to proceed, the issue of TIF assistance is no longer critical to this project. <br />The Planner's will have a report ready for Wednesday's meeting addressing the revisions <br />to the site plan. <br />Page 25 <br />
