UNAPPROVED <br /> Mounds View Planning Commission September 1, 1993 <br /> "regular Meeting Page 3 <br /> Mr. Boulay answered that the blower will <br /> rid cars of most of the water and that <br /> there would be a heated apron at the car <br /> wash exit. <br /> Commissioner Miller inquired about the <br /> adequacy of parking on the site. <br /> Planner Harrington replied that no <br /> additional off-street parking is <br /> required for a car wash facility. <br /> Commissioner Nelson asked Mr. Boulay if <br /> the car wash had any space for outdoor <br /> merchandising of accessories. Mr. <br /> Boulay replied that there was no space <br /> for this, although there will be pay- <br /> per-use vacuums outside of the car wash. <br /> These vacuums will not be attached to <br /> the car wash nor will they be in the <br /> stacking area. Chair Mountin asked that <br /> the vacuum's placement be shown on the <br /> final plans. <br /> There was some discussion among the <br /> Commissioners regarding the compati- <br /> bility of the primary and secondary <br /> uses, in this case being a convenience <br /> store and .a car wash. The Commission <br /> wished to avoid a scenario in the future <br /> where the car wash would be an accessory <br /> use to a fast food store, for example. <br /> A condition was placed in the resolution <br /> that nullifies the car wash permit if <br /> the primary use of the property changes. <br /> Motion/Second: , Nelson/Peterson to <br /> approve Resolution No. 368-93 , <br /> recommending approval of a Conditional <br /> Use Permit for a prefabricated car wash <br /> at 2390 Highway 10. <br /> Commissioner Miller questioned the <br /> requirement that a blower be used in the <br /> winter months - would this be an <br /> additional charge? Planner Harrington <br /> stated that the operators of car washes <br /> often work the cost of the dry into the <br /> basic cost of a car wash. <br /> 4 ayes 1 nay Motion Carried <br />
