Planning Case IU00-0002 Property Involved: 2400 County Road J – Sysco Minnesota Public Hearing and Consideration of Resolution 610-00, a Resolution Recommending Approval of an Interim Use Permit for Two Billboards on Sysco Property. Applicant: DeLite Outdoor Advertising The applicant was present. Planning Associate Ericson gave the staff report as follows: DeLite Outdoor Advertising, representing the property owner Sysco Minnesota, has applied for an Interim Use Permit to install two billboards on Sysco property fronting State Highway 10. Planning Associate Ericson advised that in December of 1999, the City Council adopted Resolution 644, which amended the City Code to allow for billboards as an interim use, and set forth requirements in terms of spacing, height and other criteria. He indicated the general conditions are that the billboards be located at least 250 feet from residentially zoned property, the minimum spacing between the signs shall be 1,000 feet, the maximum sign area shall be 750 square feet per side, and the maximum sign height shall be 35 feet. Planning Associate Ericson stated this application was referenced by the Planning Commission at their previous two meetings, during which there was consideration of the City’s request for an interim use permit to allow for six billboards at the Bridges Golf Course. He explained that there was some discussion regarding how that proposal would impact Sysco’s application, which is before them at this time.
