The site plan indicates the various paving types throughout the subject property, all of which are acceptable materials for paving. Section 30-901(a) states all driving areas and parking areas shall be bounded by B612 concrete curb and gutter. Staff recommends compliance with Section 30-901 (a). However, the applicant is requesting an exception from the curbing requirement as described in Section 30-901 (b) (3). The reason the applicant believes their business is unique is described in the attached email from Heidi Goodin dated May 18, 2016. Access The site has two access points from Highway 169. All access before and during events for spectators and participants/ sponsors will occur at the 217th access. The southern access will only be for emergency purposes and exiting at the end of an event. MnDOT was provided the submitted information to review and the city has not received any comments from them. Utilities The subject property is not located in the Urban Service District. The submitted site plan identifies the location of existing and future drain fields. Although the current project does not require city services, some of the proposed permitted and conditional uses in the XCR District will require city services and this will have to be addressed in the future.
