Ayes - 5 Nays -0 Motion carried. 6. Planning Case No. 512-98 2375 and 2395 Highway 10 Applicant: Saturn Development Consideration of Resolution No. 535-98 regarding Development Review The applicant, Saturn Development, represented by Jim Price, was present. Associate Ericson gave the Commission a brief review of the Development background. On February 4, 1998 the Planning Commission held a Development review of the proposed Saturn Project. At this meeting it was decided that the neighbors within a 350 feet of the proposed project would be notified and given a chance to meet with Planning Commission to discuss the Development. The original site plan, which had been approved in 1996 is being modified so that the new plans will include added showroom space, service bays and a car wash. All work in the new development will be to the east of the existing building, with the exception of the car wash. The primary issues with this development are availability of parking, site lighting and the possibility of combining the parcels for tax purposes, and the Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD) might require on-site stormwater storage. The revised site plan dated February 12, 1998, shows all of the requested changes have been made with regard to the parking counts, handicapped stalls, garbage dumpster enclosure details and the change to the sign fronting Highway 10. Saturn Development is in the process of working with Ramsey County to resolve the issue of combining the three lots into one for tax purposes. A February 25, 1998 meeting with the RCWD is scheduled to resolve the stormwater drainage details. All conditions of the CUP have been met, with the exception of the 10 percent of the property, excluding setback requirements. The Planning Commission indicated the property already had an extraordinary amount of setback from Highway 10 and the greenspace therein could apply toward the 10 percent, thereby fulfilling the requirement.
