(Formerly Fina), 7509 Lake Drive - Mr. David Ridings <br />and Mr. Glen Keller of Twin Cities Stores, Inc. were present to <br />discuss the future plans for the Fina gas station and their <br />recent purchase of the site. <br />A conditional use permit (CUP) was granted for demolition and <br />reconstruction of the site in 1992. An extension to that CUP was <br />granted in 1993 and again in 1994. The 1994 extension was <br />granted with the understanding that construction would begin in <br />1994, therefore, the permit was extended only until December 31, <br />1994. <br />It now appears that construction will not commence until the <br />spring of 1995. Therefore, extension of the original permit is <br />again required to facilitate the reconstruction. <br />Mr. Ridings explained that Twin Stores, Inc., a new company, <br />purchased 45 Fina stores in the twin city area in September, <br />1994. The reconstruction could not be started until the purchase <br />was finalized. Since the closing occurred in September, there <br />was not enough time to demolish the present building and <br />construct another before winter arrived. Mr. Ridings noted that <br />the current plan is to build according to the plan presented by <br />Fina with some alteration because the size of the building will <br />be a little larger. The cost of the project is expected to be <br />about $800,000.00. <br />Mr. Wessel explained that he has reviewed the plans for the new <br />store and felt very comfortable with the plans. <br />Council Member Neal noted that there is a street easement in the <br />pine trees to the south of the current building. He asked if Mr. <br />Ridings and Mr. Keller were aware that a street could be <br />constructed south of their facility. Mr. Wessel explained that <br />he had outlined this area and discussed the possibility that <br />there would be a street in this area in the future. <br />Council Member Bergeson said it makes sense to approve the CUP <br />PAGE 3 <br />28 <br />
