MINUTES PLANNING COMMISSION September 14, 1989 Slumberland site during the last week. Moravetz stated that he was of the impression that the area was to be cleaned up and now additional debris has been brought in. Drabik pointed out that there is other debris besides concrete that was to be cleaned up and is still there. Costa stated that he did not think that the ground up concrete was a good use as Kaufman described. Moravetz reported that the concrete is full of rebar. Stanke reported that the ground concrete could be used under the parking lot, but Building Codes would not allow it to be used under the building addition itself. Brent Thompson, Yorkton Ltd., reported that the ground concrete would be used under the parking lot and not the building. Thompson reported that the proposal is to grind the concrete at the site. It is thought that the grinding process would take three days. Costa pointed out that there have been no efforts made to conceal the loading dock areas. Costa pointed out that the I -P District was to be a high -class area, and he did not feel that is what the City is getting in terms of the Slumberland development. Costa questioned that outside loading of trucks is allowed in the I -P District. DeLonais reported that the Economic Development Committee is discussing future development of the land to the south of Slumberland, and he did not feel that storage of semi - trucks should be allowed. Drabik stated that she was of the impression that Slumberland was to submit a plan for screening to the Commission this evening. Drabik stated that she sees no such plan. DeLonais pointed out that there was discussion at the last meeting about a wall to screen the truck dock area. The City Planner pointed out that the ordinance allows for a variety of ways to screen, either by a wall, fencing, landscaping or a combination. The Planner felt that landscaping provided the most attractive screening method. Page 4
