Mr. Filippi also reviewed the planned berming and screening, and he stated that all revisions discussed tonight would be incorporated into the plan and the drawings updated. He added they plan on erecting a 6 ' high wooden privacy fence along the property line of the station. There was discussion among the Commissioners of concerns with the use of wooden fences and problems with their upkeep. It was agreed they would prefer to see more plantings and berming used, if possible. Mr. Filippi stated they would be willing to replace the fence with a 2 ' berm, with closely spaced • ' Mounds View Planning Commission March 4 , 1987 Regular Meeting Page Three 0 evergreens on top. Chairman Mountin asked that the site plan be updated to include the size, location and type of lighting that is planned. Commissioner Burgers asked if the issue had been addressed of run-off of water from the cars as they leave the facility and go onto Highway 10 , and the problems that water could pose. Mr. Filippi presented the Commissioners with the data available on the lighting they are proposing, and showed the location of the lights. He also stated the facility would have the capacity to accomodate a dryer for the cars. He explained the design of the car wash is such that water will not be able to splash out, and their drainage and discharge will be directed toward Silver Lake Road, and not Highway 10. Chairman Mountin pointed out there is already a serious traffic problem at that intersection, and she would like to see it reviewed by a traffic consultant. She advised, however, that the Planning Commission would have to make a decision if they think they will go with the plan, before asking the developer to pay for the cost of • such a study. It was the concensus of the Commissioners that they were concerned with the traffic situation at this site, and the additional traffic the development would generate , and they asked that a traffic consultant be retained to address the issue. Mr. Filippi explained they plan on having two entrances onto the site, one on Highway 10 and one on Silver Lake Road, which would allow for good flow-through of the cars. csmmissioner Zollner statedshewas concerned with the entrance onto Highway 10 being so close to the inter- section, and if there is anything that can be done to make the intersection better, it should be planned for now. She added that the existing problem is not the fault of this developer, but this development would just add to it. Commissioner Saunders stated he also was concerned with the intersection, especially during rush hour, and the bank is a large source of the traffic for that area. • Mounds View Planning Commission March 4, 1987 Regular Meeting Page Four • The Planning Commission asked that the Council try to retain the firm of Barton-Ashmann to do the traffic study, and address the following issues : on-site stacking for cars leaving the site; ingress/egress onto Silver Lake Road - right in, right out; what type of median would be needed to control access; the stacking of cars waiting to get into the car wash; and the issue of a joint shared access. Chairman Mountin asked if the two property owners would consider sharing one access onto Highway 10 between their two properties, as it is a goal to reduce the number of curb cuts onto Highway 10. Jim Hansen, of Wagner Corporation, stated they are willing to work with the Planning Commission with the traffic study, and they would like to stay on schedule and not have to wait for the results of the traffic study to be presented before moving ahead with anything else. Chairman Mountin explained it should only be a matter of two or three weeks before the study results are in, assuming they can get Barton-Ashmann right away. Commissioner Burgers asked what the plan is for the • adjacent property. Mr. Hansen replied they have no tenant for the remainder of the property at this time , and if Amoco is approved and goes in, they will develop the adjacent property as quickly as possible. He added they are both flexible and negotiable as to what goes on that parcel and they will keep the best interests of the City in mind when seeking a tenant. Chairman Mountin stated they should check with MnDOT on the curb cut issue, as now would be the time to go with a single cut, whiledevelopment is occuring. Mr. Filippi stated he will make the necessary applica- tions to MnDOT, as appropriate . The Planning Commission agreed to ask the Council for the traffic study, and continue discussion on the development at the next agenda session if there is any additional information, and place it on the April 1 , 1987 agenda, for the next regular business meeting. Carl Kristophec, of Amoco Corporation, stated he could assure the Planning Commission there would be no • problem with outside trash on the site, as that is a top priority of all their facilities, to be neat and well kept and a good neighbor. He added he feels this development would be a dramatic improvement to the City, and they will be proud of it. - Mounds View Planning Commission March 4, 1987 Regular Meeting Page Five 0 Motion/Second: Forslund/Burgers to adopt the 9.
