• <br />Mr. Jeff Smyser <br />July 27, 2006 <br />Page 4 <br />v. County of Carver, 660 N. W.2d 828, the Minnesota Court of Appeals stated that <br />traffic estimates based solely on information provided by landowners and commission <br />members which ignored contrary expert evidence were insufficient to serve as a basis <br />for denying a conditional use permit. Furthermore, public comments on projected <br />traffic increases do not serve in and of itself and do not provide grounds for denial of <br />a conditional use permit. Based upon by review of the facts surrounding the <br />application and the engineering and planning reports provided to the City Council, <br />there does not appear to be a factual basis for denying the application based on a <br />determination that the traffic generated is not within the capability of the City street <br />systems. Unless additional information is presented regarding traffic impacts of the <br />drive through, it appears that a defense to a legal challenge of denial would be <br />difficult. <br />It should be noted that under Section 2, Subd. 2 of the City Zoning Ordinance, the <br />City Council does have the right to apply conditions to the issuance of a conditional <br />use permit and conduct an annual review to ensure that the conditions are being <br />complied with. If there is concern that the proposed drive through use may be <br />changed or expanded, it would seem reasonable to impose conditions on the <br />applicant that would limit the drive through to the type of use being proposed in the <br />application as well as limitation on the square feet in the building that could be <br />occupied by an entity using the drive through. In the event of a change of use or <br />expansion of the size that would cause additional traffic considerations, I believe the <br />applicant could be required to seek an amended conditional use permit and review by <br />the City Council under the ordinance. <br />If any Council members have any questions, please feel free to contract me. <br />William G. Hawkins <br />WGH /tju <br />
