Lake Elmo Agenda Section: Planning, Land Use and Zoning No. 9B City Council May 2, 2006 A ends Item: Permission for Temporary Office Trailer — Lake Elmo Pines Backaround Information for Mav 2 , 2006: We have attached a letter recently received from the new operator of the golf practice facility on Keats Avenue formerly known as Mulligan Masters. There have been ownership/control issues with this facility over the past two years — resulting in the closing of the facility in 2005 after the former operators had made extensive improvements to the site. One condition of the original Site Plan approval for this facility was that the then owners/operators be permitted to bring in a temporary office during the first year of facility operations — one year. The Site Plan depicts a permanent office facility/club house that would have been constructed in 2004 — had the ownership issues not cropped up. While the current operators have made no commitments regarding the permanent club house (no can they under what appears to be a relatively short term operating arrangement) it is reasonable to assume that success of the facility under the new operators should lead to such a commitment (and construction) in the future. Staff recommends the Council approve a temporary office/clubhouse at Lake Elmo Pines — to be removed (and permission suspended) by November 15, 2006. This should give the new operators an opportunity to rebuild the business without a large front end capital commitment. No future extensions are implied. Person responsible: Action items: Motion to approve amending the Mulligan Masters Section 520 City Planner Site Plan approval to permit a temporary office/clubhouse facility similar to that previously approved to be removed by November 15, 2006.
