Greetings, <br />The following is a proposal for a small storage building with an attached dumpster <br />enclosure on the Alliance Machine Inc. property at 17520 Tyler Street, Elk River. This <br />location is in the Northstar Business Park. The purpose is to store certified material (steel <br />and aluminum bars) separate from our current in house stock. Our aerospace customer <br />insists we do this to meet the military and aerospace compliances which are mandated. If <br />we cannot provide separate warehousing for this material we could jeopardize our <br />business relationship with one of our largest accounts. This additional structure would be <br />constructed of the same materials and conform to the same architecture as our current <br />building. We would also attach to this storage building a dumpster enclosure as requested <br />by the city. <br />Alliance Machine Inc. moved to Elk River in April of 2006. Alliance Employs 32 people. <br />We have approximately parking for 50 vehicles and expansion for 50 more if need be. <br />We currently do not have any outdoor storage. Because of appearance, we do not wish to <br />store anything outside. There would be no grading or tree removable needed to put up our <br />storage building. The building would be constructed of rough faced block to match the <br />building and have a steel gate locking the dumpster area. The estimated time frame would <br />be about 60 days to complete. <br />The reason we ask for the amendment to allow us to build a detached structure, verses an <br />attached structure, is so we can expand the size of our current building when needed in <br />the future. If we attach the new structure to the current building, this will prevent any <br />future expansion and block fire truck access to the back of our building. We had a drive <br />way built in back just for fire truck access. Alliance, by request of the city, needs to build <br />a detached structure for the dumpster enclosure. We are currently asking to build a <br />storage facility connected to the dumpster enclosure instead of the existing building. <br />If this is permitted, the structure will be done tastefully and professionally. It will have <br />matching stone and fit the theme of the surrounding buildings. <br />The benefit to the city will be that this storage building will prevent any outside storage <br />that seems to take place in some of the older industrial parks. It will be made from block <br />and other maintence free material so it will look uniform to its surroundings and, it will <br />promote a more safe and secure area in and around Northstar Business Park. <br />Thanks for your consideration. <br />Sincerely, <br />~%' <br />Bryan Provo <br />Alliance Machine Inc. <br />17520 Tyler Street <br />Elk River, MN 55330 <br />(p)763-425-1616 (f)763-425-2067 <br />
