COUNCILMEMBER HOLMGREN SECONDED THE MOTION. THE MOTION CARRIED 5-0. 6. Reauest for Time Extension of Conditional Use Permit for True Value Mayor Tralle indicated that the owner of True Value, Mr. Steve Koziolek, is requesting a time extension on his conditional use permit. The City Administrator stated that the City's ordinance does not allow outside storage of lumber which currently exists at True Value. e Mr. Koziolek stated that at the time he was granted a conditional use permit, he did intend to build a building for the storage of his lumber. He indicated that since that time, the owner of the property has decided to not sign an agreement allowing him to put up a facility on the property. Mr. Koziolek indicated that if he did construct a facility for the storage of lumber, the building would become owned by the property owner. Mr. Koziolek indicated that he realizes that the area is changing and that in a few years from now it may no longer be suitable for a lumber yard. He further indicated that it is not his intention to maintain the lumber yard in this area if in the future a lumber yard does not fit in the area. Mr. Koziolek stated that if he decided to expand his lumber business, he would look for a different location. He further indicated that as he sees it there are three alternatives available to him: 1) to allow him to continue on as he has been doing; 2) to construct a building for the storage of lumber at his own expense; or 3) the Council deny his time extension request. Councilmember Kropuenske stated that Mr. Koziolek's lease is up in mid-1992. Councilmember Holmgren indicated that the site is not a nuisance and he has received no complaints. He further indicated that the site is screened and it is not a hazard to the community. e Councilmember Schuldt questioned what improvements Mr. Koziolek would do if the Council should decide to grant the time extension. Mr. Koziolek stated that he could clean the area up by stacking the lumber in a more efficient way, and also by keeping the lumber below the fence line.
