NORTHWEST ASSOCIATED CONSULTANTS INC. <br />17 May 1982 <br />Mr. Herb Dorr, President <br />OH HE Association <br />2368 Erin Court <br />New Brighton, Minnesota 55112 <br />RE: R &S Automotive - Proposed Auto Salvage Yard <br />Dear Mr. Dorr: <br />This is to document our previous discussions regarding your inquiry about <br />a proposed auto salvage yard in Little Canada. The parcel to the south and <br />east of R &S Automotive is zoned I -1, Light Industrial. The I -1 District allows <br />auto wrecking, junk yards, etc., but only by conditional use permit. You <br />have been given the appropriate sections of the Zoning Ordinance pertaining <br />to required information, procedure and performance standards. <br />It seems that the question of access to the site presents some confusion. <br />R &S Automotive has received past approval to access the site via a driveway <br />located between R &S and Empire Bucket. I believe this approval was given <br />based on a request for an accessory storage building for use by R &S Automotive. <br />Due to the nature of the proposed operation, and since the auto salvage yard <br />is to be a separate business, or at least has the potential to exist as a <br />separate business, the Building Official, the City Clerk and our office have <br />suggested that a public street should provide access rather than a private <br />road. R &S has previously provided an easement along the east edge of their <br />property for future roadway purposes. <br />I am writing to inform you that the staff recommendation is strictly advisory. <br />The City Council makes the final determination as to what will be required <br />in terms of access. So as not to disuade you from pursuing your request, we <br />suggest you make arrangements to appear before the Council to discuss the <br />access issue. <br />If you have any questions regarding this matter or the conditional use permit <br />process, feel free to contact our office at 925 -9420. <br />Sincerely, <br />NORTHWEST ASSOC TEDD CONSULTANTS, INC. <br />Bradley J.
