Mounds View Planning Commission June 1, 2011 <br />Regular Meeting Page 3 <br />________________________________________________________________________ <br /> <br />Commissioner Schiltgen questioned if there had been any concerns with the lift station in the <br />past. <br /> <br />Associate Heller noted she would speak with public works regarding this concern but stated she <br />was not aware of any issues, and the lift station has been there for many years. She noted a <br />bollard could be placed between the new driveway and the building. <br /> <br />Commissioner Schiltgen asked if the building schedule was known for the future garages. <br /> <br />Bob Yentsch, property manager for Kinyon Properties, stated this was uncertain but that they did <br />hope to start one of the garages this summer. <br /> <br />Commissioner Schiltgen inquired how long the applicant had to complete the garages before the <br />variance expired. <br /> <br />Associate Heller stated the City Code states that if the work that the variance was granted for is <br />not completed within one year, the approval becomes void. She indicated that the applicant can <br />apply for an extension before the variance expires. She stated that in this case, the City is willing <br />to work with Mr. Kinyon because of the unique circumstances with Raymond Avenue being <br />reconstructed and the changes being done to ten of his curb cuts. The extension request would <br />come before the Planning Commission for approval. She noted if the variance were to expire, <br />the applicant could simply reapply. She stated that she had spoken to the applicant who said that <br />he may install the driveways before the garages are built. <br /> <br />Commissioner Miller requested a minor language change on each resolution. <br /> <br />Chair Stevenson opened the public hearing at 7:20 p.m. <br /> <br />Chair Stevenson closed the public hearing at 7:20 p.m. <br /> <br />MOTION/SECOND: Commissioner Schiltgen/Commissioner Miller.
