• • • PLANNING & ZONING BOARD March 12, 1986 Page Six_ The parking lot at the driving range is planned to be Class 5 material. Bituminous is not required per ordinance. MOTION: Mrs. Averbeck moved to recommend to Council approval of the site and building plan of Kenneth Tritten, 6221 Laurene Drive, Circle Pines, MN dated 2/25/86 for a driving range at 1297 Ash St., Lino Lakes. Mr. Tritten will be leasing a 5 -acre parcel from Donald Lundgren for five years, after which time he may purchase the proper size lot or turn any improvements over the Mr. Lundgren. A golf driving range appears to be a permitted use in the rural zone. A clubhouse of 2X4 construction will be erected. No lighting for nighttime hours and no septic system will be installed (a satellite will be on site). Before this goes on to the Council, a landscape plan should be submitted for Council consideration (possibly stag- gering trees and shrubs in front of the clubhouse and fencing. Motion was seconded by Mrs. Klaus assuming that a driving range falls into the definition of a golf course. Motion carried with Mr. Prokop voting no because he felt that a driving range is not the same as a golf course and thus he felt approval would not be consistent with the comprehensive plan. VOYAGEUR LOG HOMES - ROGER KOLSTAD - Conditional Use Permit for Sign Mr. Kluegel brought this request to the Planning & Zoning Board again. At two previous meetings the Board did not feel it was their responsibility to consider the request. Mr. Kluegel repeated that Voyageur Log Homes still has in place, without a permit, a mini log home model of approximately 10' X 20', with an advertising sign on top. Because of the size, structure and type of material used, this advertising device requires a conditional use permit. Mr. Kolstad stated that he is representing Russ Holman of Voyageur Log Homes and that Mr. Kolstad's only relationship is a friend of Mr. Holman. He also stated that this structure is only planned to be up during the building season and then removed, unless it proves to be a very successful device, at which time, Voyageur Log Homes will appear again before the Board for consideration of an extension. Mrs. Klaus suggested that a time limit be placed on the conditional use permit. Mr. Prokop asked Mr. Kluegel what recourse the City would have if the time limit came and Voyageur Log Homes did not remove the device. Mr. Kluegel read the ordinance pertaining to this issue. Mr. Doocy asked why this structure was erected without a permit. Mr. Kolstad had no reason; Mr. Holman did not understand that a permit had been granted. Mr. Kluegel also stated that the structure has been erected on the Forrest Tagg property at the intersection of 35W and Lake Drive and that property is currently for sale. MOTION: Mr. Prokop moved to reject this request because the applicant is coming before the Board after the fact and now wants to go through the proper channels, and the applicant should
