Exhibit A Agreement for Issuance of an Interim Use Permit for the Store Building at Wapiti Park Camnground This "Agreement for Issuance of an Interim Use Permit for the Store Building at Wapiti Park Campground" ("Agreement") entered into this day of April, 2011 by and between Wapiti Park Campground, Inc. ("Wapiti") and the City of Elk River ("City"). Recitals 1. Wapiti Park Campground has been located within the City of Elk River since the merger ofthe old City of Elk Kiver and Elk Kiver Township in 1978. 2. In 1983, Wapiti Pazk Campground was rezoned from A-1/Agricultural to R- lb/Single Family Residential, and the Elk River Zoning Ordinance was amended to allow campgrounds in the R-lb in the zoning district as a conditional use. 3. In 1984, a Conditional Use Permit was issued for Wapiti Pazk Campground, subject to nine conditions. 4. Between 1984 and 1988, the Elk River Zoning Ordinance was amended to remove campgrounds as a Conditional Use in the R-lb zoning district and Wapiti Pazk Campground became a legal non-conforming use. 5. In 1998, the Conditional Use Permit for Wapiti Pazk was clarified, with the cooperation of the owner of Wapiti Park, and a notice was sent to campers setting forth requirements for campers at the Pazk. 6. In 1999, the Wapiti Pazk store building burned completely down. At that time, the Elk River Zoning Ordinance did not allow the reconstruction of anon-conforming use destroyed beyond 50%. 7. In 2000, Wapiti Pazk Campground requested a Conditional Use Permit to rebuild the store building. Because the campground was no longer a conditional use, the application was treated as an application for an Interim Use Permit. Because it was anticipated that the campground would be sold and developed within 10 yeazs, the Interim Use Permit was approved for 10 years. 8. The 10 year Interim Use Permit approved in April, 2000 for the Wapiti Pazk Campground store building expired in April, 2010. 9. Wapiti Pazk Campground applied for a new Interim Use Permit for the store building, for an aclditiona! 10 yeazs, in June, 2010.
