FAC Northwest Associated Consultants, Inc. <br />U R B A N P L A N N J N Q • D E S I G N • M A R K E T R E S E A R C H <br />MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Little Canada City Council <br />FROM: Stephen Grittman <br />DATE: 11 July 1990 <br />RR: Little Canada - Frattalone Excavating <br />Recycling Operations <br />FILE NO: 758.09 - 90.48 <br />Attached is a draft contract for managing the phasing out of the <br />Frat:talone excavating recycling activity. As we have formulated <br />this draft we have become concerned that the city is, in effect, <br />contractually permitting an illegal activity, except that the <br />zoning Ordinance could be read to say that the activity is <br />effectively allowed. The Zoning Ordinance includes as permitted <br />uses the storage and treatment of materials in the I -1 District <br />which the property was zoned when recycling activity began. Tn <br />any case, we would recommend that the City amend its Zoning <br />Ordinance to specifically exclude this use, thereby making <br />Frattalone's activity non- conforming. A clause in the contract <br />provides that acti.vition on the site. after 1 August 1992 must be <br />in conformance with the Zoning Ordinance. With the amendment, <br />the City will not have to worry about any re- establ..ishment and <br />may have a stronger enforcement standing if that becomes <br />necessary. <br />cc: Tom Sweeney <br />Joel Hanson <br />Page 1 <br />4601 Excelsior Blvd. .Suite 410 •Minneapolis, MN 55416.(612) 925 -9420 •Fax 925 -2721 <br />
