ENVIRONMENTAL BOARD MEETING JANUARY 15, 2003 <br />overridden with a CUP if a shadow study was performed to show shadow <br />encroachment on adjoining properties. <br />Grundhofer inquired about a church spire requiring a shadow study. Mr. Brixius <br />responded that it did not apply. It was applicable for the building structures <br />alone. <br />Grundhofer mentioned that there was also an airport in the City. Mr. Brixius <br />indicated that it was addressed in (3)(p. 3-17) where if there is an excess of 200 <br />feet above ground level of the site, the applicant had to notify the commissioner <br />of MnDOT in writing. He then asked if there were any 80 -foot spires. <br />Grundhofer responded that there was one proposed. O'Connell mentioned that <br />they should all be considered, possibly 60 feet as the maximum height above the <br />top of the building roof. <br />Chair Kukonen suggested that it could be overruled if there was willingness to <br />use as an osprey pole. <br />• O'Connell recommended that for (C-1) b, c, and g, the height should not <br />exceed 60 feet above the roof of the building. <br />Grundhofer expressed concern over the lighting for public hockey rinks and <br />recreational fields (m,n)(p.3-17). The Board discussed the lighting of sports <br />fields. <br />Grochala stated that (8)(1.3-24,3-25) added provisions for a pole barn for R-1. <br />The Board discussed the provisions application to other districts in addition to R- <br />1. <br />Mr. Brixius referred to (p.3-32) where lighting was required to be directional, at <br />90 -degrees or less and would be no less than 1 foot candle at the property line <br />when measured at 6 -inches above the ground. <br />The Board discussed the meaning of 90 degrees or less, and Mr. Brixius clarified <br />the definition. <br />Mr. Brixius directed the Board to (2,d)(p.3-38), where the storage of semi trailers <br />was added for clarification. Screening was defined in (Q,1)(p.3-39), while <br />sodding was addressed for residential areas in (Q,3)(p.3-40). <br />Grundhofer asked about the use of Colorado Spruce in the City. Asleson <br />responded that Colorado Spruce was still a landscape option for individual <br />homeowners. <br />6 APPROVED MINUTES <br />
