Planning Commission Meeting Minutes August 17, 1999 Page 10 • 1 Hanson stated that a City Councilmember had contacted him with a concern about noise levels 2 possibly generated from The Hitching Post. Hanson felt Mr. Kellison had adequately addressed 3 the issue and he was comfortable reporting back to the Councilmember. 4 Horst expressed that he was concerned about having a potentially noisy business in town, yet he 5 was also concerned about alienating potential businesses from St. Anthony. Horst stated that 6 most businesses within the shopping center, with the exception of food service businesses, are 7 closed within reasonable hours. However, he felt that a restriction on hours could be imposed in 8 the conditional use permit if necessary. 9 Stille asked if hours of service limitations could be placed for-the business. 10 Mr. Kellison mentioned that there needs to be some flexibility in allowing customers to pick up 11 repaired vehicles, but that vehicles would not be repaired during late hours.
