(2) April 17, 1974 Air. Paulsrud of 718 Vicky Lane appeared before the Board asking for a Special Use permit to operate a sheet metal shop in his garage at the afore mentioned address for a period of one year. He is just starting his business and needs to get the business started. If things go, as he expects, within a year he will have to find commercial property. He assured the Board there would be no storage of materials outside the garage, no evening work, no traffic and no noise connected with the operation. Mr. Karth read a letter from Mr. and Mrs. Anthony Jones objecting to the estab- lishing of this small business. Mr. Paulsrud said that he would only be working in the garage about 2 hours a day. He repeated there is no noise connected with this work and that he only wants the special use permit for one year. Por. Kelling felt that if a resident wants to start a causal business in his garage and is willing to appear before the Board for permission and has plans to move it out when the volumn warrants it, these people should be encouraged. He moved to recommend to the Council approval of the Special Use Permit with the following provisions; No work before 8:00 a.m. or after 5:00 p.m. - rionday through Friday, except Holidays. Hours to be limited to 10 hours per week - no outside storage of raw materials - and the Special Use Permit for the operation of a sheet metal shoe at 718 Vicky Lane be limited to 1 year. Seconded by Mr. Shearen. Motion carried. The Clerk was requested to send copies of this to Mr. & Mts. Jones. Mr. Blackbird, representing North-NorthEast Realty appeared before the Board for consideration on two possible plats; Pine Haven and Shamrock Estates. Mr. Starr's and Mr. Gotwald's recommendations were read and discussed. The need for the utility easements was noted. Since these two areas are near Park Propert- ies, the feeling of the Board was that here again, cash would be accepted, in lieu of land. It was also recommended that buildings only he put on every other lot until sewers are installed. Mr. Blackbird asked the width of the street to be surfaced. The Board wasn't sure of this and asked that he check with Mr. Gotwald. In the Shamrock area, the street dead ends. The Board felt this could create a problem with snow plowing. They asked that a turn around of some sort be put in that plat. There was some discussion on the legality of restricting the building if the perc test were favorable. Some of the Board members felt that this practice could result in a law suit. Mr. Marier suggested in the future, if developers are to bring in plats for discussion that these not be sent to the Planner and Engineer. When the preliminary is presented then send copies to them. He suggested that Mr. Black- bird consult Mr. Gotwald as to the storm sewers and a street on the south end of the plat. Basically, there were no objections from the Board, if the recommendations of the Planner and Engineer were followed.
