of rig • <br /> River <br /> October 1, 1997 <br /> Rita Schmahl <br /> Cargill <br /> 10383 165th Avenue <br /> Box 301 <br /> Elk River MN 55330-0301 <br /> Dear Rita: <br /> I briefly reviewed the plans that you dropped off at Elk River City Hall and noticed <br /> the location of the proposed building is along the north side of 165th Avenue. This <br /> property is zoned I-1 (Light Industrial) and is within the City's urban service <br /> boundary. Although the proposed use of the building as a research laboratory and <br /> office space is a permitted use in the I-1 zoning district, the City's zoning ordinance <br /> does not allow development within the urban service boundary until utilities are <br /> • made available. Therefore, I cannot review the plans you have submitted nor can <br /> we issue a building permit for a building at this location. <br /> If this same building would be constructed on the south side of 165th Avenue within <br /> the R1a (Single Family Residential) district, a conditional use permit would be <br /> required. The conditional use permit would basically be an amendment to the <br /> conditional use permit Cargill received in 1993 for a feed lot. As I discussed with <br /> Tim Thomas a couple weeks ago, a conditional use permit application on the <br /> property south of 165th Avenue would be considered along with an ordinance to <br /> create a definition that will accommodate Cargill's facility. <br /> If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me at 441-4902. I <br /> have enclosed the plans you provided me last week and would ask if you pursue a <br /> conditional use permit on the property south of 165th , please resubmit the plans <br /> along with the appropriate information and applications. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> S e c <br /> City Planner <br /> • <br /> \\elkriver\sys\shrdoc\planning\cargill.doc <br /> 13065 Orono Parkway • P.O.
