• <br />• <br />COUNCIL MINUTES OCTOBER 27, 1997 <br />recordable survey, vacation of any easements, and comment by the City Engineer with regard to <br />any necessary property line easements at the time of final platting. <br />Site Plan Review - Mr. Brixius explained that the site is properly zoned, it fits within the site <br />including setbacks, loading has adequate turning area, and parking is adequate with expansion <br />for the new addition. Approval of the site and building plan was recommended subject to the <br />following conditions: <br />1. Colors of proposed building material finishes be specified and approved by the City. <br />2. All trash handling areas are identified on the site plan. If outdoor trash receptacles are <br />proposed, they must be located in the rear or side yard and screened from view by <br />occupants of adjacent properties and public rights-of-way by a fence or wall at least six <br />(6) feet in height with a minimum opaqueness of 80 percent. <br />3. The applicant submit a signage plan specifying sign height, size, etc. The sign plan will <br />be subject to City approval. <br />4. The submitted grading plan is subject to review and comment by the City Engineer. <br />5. Building and site plans are subject to review by "Crime Prevention Through Environment <br />and Design" (CPTED) offices prior to building permit issuance. <br />Mr. Brixius added that an easement encroachment exists on the east property line, which includes <br />a drainage utility determined to be appropriately left in place; but an encroachment for the <br />loading area would be permitted with a signed encroachment area. <br />Mr. Wessel reminded Council that Mary Alice Devine has worked extensively with the Rices, <br />and that the Planning and Zoning Board is pleased that they have selected Lino Lakes in which to <br />build their new facility. He added that the Rices and their daughter, Jill Vass, were present, <br />together with the architect and contractor. Rice Industries is currently located in Shoreview, and <br />is a 20 -year-old distributor of chemicals and equipment used for the manufacture of metal molds. <br />Ken Nordby of NAI Architects presented samples of certain building materials to Council, as <br />well as a color photograph of the proposed building and site. He indicated that the site is <br />currently designed to take into account future expansion. <br />Mr. Nordby noted one area which had not been addressed, and that was the curb design. He <br />indicated preference for rollover curb (or valley curb) to aid in ease of snow removal. Mr. <br />Brixius responded that so long as it is surmountable curb of concrete construction there should be <br />no problem. <br />Council Member Bergeson asked how many people Rice Industries employs. Ms. Vass <br />responded that there are currently eleven (11) employees. <br />Council Member Kuether moved to approve the site plan review, pursuant to the conditions <br />outlined above. Council Member Neal seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. <br />Minor Subdivision - Council Member Lyden moved to approve the minor subdivision. Council <br />Member Neal seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. <br />• Mayor Landers welcomed the Rices to Lino Lakes. <br />1 <br />• <br />• <br />
