The Elk River Firearms Ordinance Section 404.12.2.B. states that "The discharge <br /> or use of a dangerous weapon shall be prohibited within five hundred (500) feet of <br /> any building or the boundary of any platted area." <br /> PROBLEM: <br /> (When the proposed subdivision is approved, the St. Louis Park Sportsmans <br /> Club shotgun range will be only be 250 feet from a platted area) <br /> SUGGESTED RESOLUTION: <br /> (As a requirement of and a part of the approval of the subject subdivision, the <br /> • St. Louis Park Sportsmans Club is granted a waiver of the Elk River <br /> Firearms Ordinance Section 404.12.2.B.) <br /> 2. The Elk River Firearms Ordinance Section 404.12.3.C. Part of this section <br /> relates to the discharge or use of dangerous weapons at outdoor target ranges. <br /> Specifically, about half way through this section, " provided that the <br /> discharge or use of dangerous weapons at such target ranges does not endanger <br /> or constitute a nuisance to adjoining or nearby properties. 99 <br /> PROBLEM: <br /> Depending upon where the houses would be built on 13.25 Acre Outlot, these <br /> houses could be as close as 300 feet to the St. Louis Park Sportsmans Club's <br /> Shotgun Range. This will be the closest of any residential home to a <br /> Shooting Area on the St. Louis Park Sportsmans Range Property. We are <br /> concerned that the original home owners and/or future home owners in <br /> this subdivision may complain or protest of the noise coming from the <br /> Shotgun Range. <br /> SUGGESTED RESOLUTION: <br /> • Provide for the Official Written Notification to the property owner of the <br /> proposed subdivision and future owners of "The existence of the St. Louis <br /> Park Sportsmans Shotgun Range which could be as close as 300 feet from the <br /> the houses and only 250 feet from the common property line." <br />
