Mounds View City Council July 10, 2006 Regular Meeting Page 15 1 F. 7:30 pm Public Hearing to Consider Resolution 6879 Pertaining to a PUD 2 Amendment at 2442 County Road 10 to Add “Print Production and 3 Fabrication Shop” as a Permitted Use and to Add “Attached Accessory 4 Building” as a Permitted Accessory Use. 5 6 Director Ericson explained that this item is for a change in the PUD for the proposed property. 7 He stated that Landcor has a prospective tenant interested in leasing the entire building and to 8 accommodate the tenant, Landcor would like an accessory building. 9 10 Mayor Marty left the meeting at 9:04 p.m. 11 12 Director Ericson stated after the Planning Commission reviewed the PUD, he toured the area and 13 said that there is almost an industrial feel to the location. He stated there are many printers and 14 large-scale industrial plotters that would not normally be housed in an office district. He stated 15 that it is a situation where the Planning Commission did not have the information regarding the 16 property and proposed tenant. 17 18 Director Ericson stated that in 2003, the PUD was allowed for the construction of the building. 19 He stated that when the Planning Commission reviewed the amendment for the addition of the 20 accessory building, it would be allowable considering it was made out of the same building 21 material. 22 23 Director Ericson stated it would take up some parking stalls, but the office building does have 24 enough stalls. He stated that the Planning Commission supports the accessory building, but it is 25 up to the Council to determine if a print production company is consistent with the 26 comprehensive plan. 27 28 Director Ericson stated that the Council specifically determined what they would like in the 29 location, a restaurant, but it did not go through. He added that the Council did grant the location 30 use as an office building, but must determine if a print production company is wanted in the 31 location. 32 33 Director Ericson stated Staff recommends approval. Staff has not received any feedback 34 regarding the property and at this point, it is up to the Council to determine what the City’s vision 35 is for the property. 36 37 Acting Mayor Stigney opened the public hearing at 9:09 p.m. 38 39 Robert Fields, LandCor Construction, gave a brief background of the location. He stated that a 40 change in the PUD allowed an office building. He stated that a company made a deal that fell 41 through and the owners have been seeking a tenant who would utilize the building as an office 42 and have failed. He explained how the building would be used for the print production company. 43 He added it is very technical equipment and that the company would like to maintain the 44 professional feel of the building. 45
