All Ayes. Motion carried Bertuleit CUP for Auto Sales The Planning Commission held a public hearing to consider the request of David Bertuleit, 1570 Oakwood Drive, Shoreview, for a conditional use permit for motor vehicle sales on property located at 15775 Forest Boulevard North, and a variance to permit automobile sales on a lot that is 100 feet in width, where the ordinance requires the lot to be 150 feet wide. On November 14, 2002, the Planning Commission tabled action on this item to give the applicant time to address a few outstanding issues with the property. The property and existing building is currently used to operate a facility for the storage and maintenance of classic and performance automobiles. The requested conditional use permit would allow the sales of classic cars. The State of Minnesota requires that prior to the applicant obtaining the necessary retail license from the state, the City must sign the permit stating the property is zoned properly for auto sales. McRoberts asked if a variance was granted to permit the current use and the CD Director stated it was not necessary. Schumann opened the public hearing. Dave Bertuleit, the applicant, and Don Baierl, property owner, were present at the meeting. They explained to the Commission that they have cut the weeds and cleaned up the site. Bertuleit said the fence was scheduled to be installed at the end of December and they have already made arrangements to have other work done in the spring. Malaski asked where the trees would be planted and Baierl said they would be in front of the mound, approximately 10-15 feet along the bottom of the mound.
