MINUTES PLANNING COMMISSION AUGUST 14, 1997 A.M. and 10 P.M. on weekdays and to between 9 A.M. and 9 P.M. on weekends. Schletty stated that he personally did not have a problem with the Wahlberg's business, but he could understand the concerns raised by the neighbor. Schletty felt there should be restrictions on the size of the vehicles coming into the area as well as when. Schletty pointed out that the property is on the corner of Jackson and Lake Street and access is from Jackson. Schletty also acknowledged the improvements which the Wahlberg's have made to the property. Montour suggested that deliveries be restricted to between 9 A.M. and 9 P.M. on weekdays with no weekend deliveries. Montour also suggested that only one employee truck (not greater than 14,500 gvw) be allowed at the site at a given time and that employee visits be restricted to no more than five per month. Montour suggested that the Wahlberg's have the option of having off -site employee meetings, or could require employees to drive their personal vehicles to the site. Mr. Wahlberg reported that he is unable to eliminate Saturday deliveries. Wahlberg reported that Matco Tools in Tennessee uses King's Trucking out of the St. Cloud area. King's Trucking delivers on Saturday. Wahlberg reported that he would rather not get deliveries on Saturday, but has no control over this situation. Wahlberg indicated that he might be able to control the time of the delivery, however. Knudsen felt it would be reasonable to allow delivery hours similar to the hours allowed for the operation of construction equipment. Schletty pointed out that the restrictions placed on the business must be workable since the 51JP can be revoked if the City receives more complaints about the business. Schletty suggested that an option might be for the Wahlberg's to lease space off -site. Wahlberg reported that his ultimate goal is to operate off -site. However, he can't afford to at this time. Mr. Montour recommended approval of the special use permit for a home occupation allowing the operation of a mobile tool franchise from 2570 Jackson Street as requested by Mr. and Mrs. Wahlberg restricting delivery hours to 9 A.M. through 9 P.M. on weekdays and 9 A.M. through 3 P.M. on Saturdays with no Sunday deliveries, and further restricting the property to one additional vehicle not more than 14,500 gross vehicle weight during employee visits/meetings.
