SUBJECT: Zone Change and Land Use Change Request (A-1 to I-2) by the Shiely Company Case No. ZC 95-7 & LUA 95-7 Introduction The Shiely Company is requesting a land use change from A/Agricultural to MI/Medium Industrial and a zone change from A-1/Agricultural to I-2/Medium Industrial on property legally described as follows: The east half of the southwest quarter lying west of US Highway 169, Section 10, Township 33, Range 26, Sherburne County; except a site approximately 170 feet by 700 feet all on trunk Highway 169. • A vicinity map of the property affected by these changes is attached. The parcel described is owned by Julius Neimeth who has co-signed the zone change application. There is approximately 10 acres in the southeast corner of the parcel described that is currently leased by Elk River Bituminous and is being run as a gravel mine. Mr. Neimeth and the Shiely Company should be questioned on whether or not this area should be included in the request. The Shiely Company is requesting this change to the land use and zoning on this parcel to accommodate a concrete ready mix plant. Shiely explains their request in the attached letter dated 7/27/95. The Elk River Code of Ordinances allows concrete product processing as a permitted use in the I-2 zone. Shiely Company has an existing conditional use permit for a gravel mine on this parcel that will also need to be amended. The amendment to their existing conditional use permit is on this same agenda. Interpretation • Section 900.12 (19), found starting on page 9.46 of the City Code of Ordinances, defines the mineral excavation overlay zoning district. Under 13065 Orono Parkway • P.O.
