Asst. <br /> The following amendments were made to the Planning Board minutes of August 20, <br /> 1974 <br /> Page 3, para 1: Letourneau voted "Aye" on motion approving a <br /> building permit for Donatelle Machine Shop. <br /> Page 3, para 5: Strike "had been disapproved of by the City Attorney" <br /> and substitute "City Attorney had strongly advised against. . . ." <br /> Motion by Mr. Marks, seconded by Mr. Kronk to approve the minutes as amended. <br /> Motion carried. <br /> Discussion of the Michaelhoff proposal was deferred until Mrs. Michaelhoff's <br /> • arrival. <br /> Mr. Mike Peterson of the Bernu Construction Company discussed with the Board the <br /> changes he had made on the landscaping and parking plans for the three story <br /> office building his company had been granted a permit to build in the St. Anthony <br /> Office Park. There was also a discussion of the free standing sign he requested <br /> in front of the building and he asked for the Board's consensus of opinion since <br /> it did not meet the sign ordinance. The Board indicated a favorable reaction to <br /> granting a sign variance to allow a carved wooden sign because it would be less <br /> than the size allowed by the ordinance, would be the only identifying sign for <br /> the building and it seemed preferable to a sign above the building. <br /> Motion by Mr. Heibel and seconded by Mr. Letourneau to indicate to the Council <br /> the Board's approval of the parking, landscaping and lighting plans as presented <br /> with the following stipulations: <br /> 1. The applicant agrees to provide additional parking area if needed. <br /> 2. One of the trees on the site plans to be placed farther back to <br /> allow space for future expansion of the parking area if necessary. <br /> 3. A portion of the security lighting be turned off after 10 P.M. <br /> Motion carried. <br /> Motion by Mr. Marks, seconded by Mr. Kronk to recommend to the Council that a <br /> • public hearing be held regarding a sign variance to allow a free standing sign <br /> in front of the Midland Professional Building as requested by Mr. Peterson. <br /> Motion carried. <br /> I <br />
