Mounds View City Council July 10, 2006 Regular Meeting Page 15 MOTION/SECOND: FLAHERTY/STIGNEY. To waive the reading and adopt Resolution 6878, Denying the Appeal of a Variance Denial for 2,468 Square Feet of Accessory Storage Space at 8135 Long Lake Road. Ayes - 5 Nays - 0 Motion carried. F. 7:30 pm Public Hearing to Consider Resolution 6879 Pertaining to a PUD Amendment at 2442 County Road 10 to Add "Print Production and Fabrication Shop" as a Permitted Use and to Add "Attached Accessory Building" as a Permitted Accessory Use. Director Ericson explained that this item is for a change in the PUD for the proposed property. He stated that Landcor has a prospective tenant interested in leasing the entire building and to accommodate the tenant, Landcor would like an accessory building.

He stated there are many printers and large-scale industrial plotters that would not normally be housed office. He stated that it is a situation where the Planning Commission did not have the information regarding the property and proposed tenant. Director Ericson stated that in 2003, the PUD was allowed for the construction of the building. He stated that when the Planning Commission reviewed the amendment for the addition of the accessory building, it would be allowable considering it was made out of the same building material. Director Ericson stated it would take up some parking stalls, but the office building does have enough stalls. He stated that the Planning Commission supports the accessory building, but it is up to the Council to determine if a print production company is consistent with the comprehensive plan.

Staff has not received any feedback regarding the property and at this point, it is up to the Council to determine what the City's vision is for the property. Acting Mayor Stigney opened the public hearing at 9:09 p.m. Robert Fields, LandCor Construction, gave a brief background of the location. He stated that a
