She also noted that Vargas has been <br /> sent two notices regarding its non-conforming sign on Silver <br /> Lake Road and that St. Anthony Self-Storage has been sent a <br /> • notice of non-conformance . <br /> META Partnership Variance <br /> Commissioner Hansen expressed the opinion that the META <br /> partnership has been consistently uncooperative in its <br /> dealings with the City. He pointed out that META had offered <br /> no exhibits of grou-ndwater pollution, in its presentation, and <br /> wondered why the City didn ' t appear more concerned if there <br /> truly is groundwater pollution at that location. Acting City <br /> Manager VanderHeyden affirmed that the City is concerned <br /> .about pollution within its limits , but cited the difficulty <br /> and slowness of dealing with the MPCA and the EPA. <br /> Commissioner Franzese expressed the hope that the gravel <br /> parking lot would serve the Kenzington residents temporarily, <br /> and pointed out that paving the lot with gravel , albeit not <br /> the most desirable surface, is a first step to improving the . <br /> lot. Commissioner Hansen said he felt that ,META' s prime <br /> motivation for paving the parking lot was tenant pressure, <br /> and that tenant pressure might also motivate META to use <br /> blacktop or concrete in• the future rather than gravel . <br /> • St .
