Motion carried unanimously. Consideration of Site Plan Review, Addition to Existing Facility, Construction Laborers Training Facility, 2350 Main Street, Mary Kay Wyland - Ms. Wyland stated the Construction Laborers Education, Apprenticeship & Training fund of Minnesota and North Dakota would like to add an 18,000 +/- square foot addition to their existing building at 2350 Main Street. The addition would include a training bay, three (3) classrooms, welding storage, bathrooms, a lunch • room area and district offices. The original facility was approved by the City in the fall of 1993. The property is Zoned Light Industrial (LI), and indicated as commercial/industrial on the land use map (both current and proposed). The parcel of property is approximately 20 acres in size and will be served by City utilities in the spring of 1999. That schedule coincides with the Training Center's construction plans and their need to connect to public utilities as the facility will require sprinkling. • The proposed construction is intended to match the existing building with rock faced concrete block and metal roofing. The parking area will be expanded to provide an additional 47 spaces for a total of 109. The Zoning Ordinance provides for one space per classroom and one space per seven (7) students. There are a total of five (5) classrooms and five (5) offices. The parking area provided is adequate for the facility. Lighting will be subject to review by the CPTED Officer. The proposed addition is planned for the south/east side of the existing facility, therefore, additional landscaping is not required at this time. RCWD permits are in process. Detailed drainage and utility plans have not been submitted. Staff would require this detail prior to issuance of any building permits. Compliance to the conditions of approval will be monitored and documented by the Building Inspections Department. The Planning and Zoning Board unanimously recommended approval of this site plan review. Mr. Fred Chase, a representative from Laborers Training Center was present to answer questions from the City Council.
