Additionally, this also preserves 217th Avenue for Outlot A, <br />for future development. By doing this, we will void the approved CUP (CU 16-15) on the 13.29 <br />acre ERX site and transfer those conditions, for the ERX track, to this new permit. <br /> <br />In a meeting with City staff on September 14, 2016, staff informed us the city attorney <br />indicated it was allowable for ERX to include special event camping on Outlot A under this CUP <br />application. At this time, special event permitting occurs twice a year, during our larger special <br />events (i.e.: Red Bull events, Off-Road Truck Racing, etc). Since this land is not platted, ERX <br />Properties would still be able to apply for additional special event permits until this land is <br />developed. <br /> <br />On December 19, 2017, ERX staff had a meeting with Tyffani Maresh with the MDH to develop <br />a strategy for camping at ERX and to determine if we needed to offer a full campground, or if <br />there was a way to offer other companies utilizing ERX to be able to apply for their own permits <br />at ERX. It was determined that the Special Event Camping Area License (SECA) can be applied <br />for by any organization and that the SECA license is not land-specific. This means that ERX <br />Motor Park can utilize their two camping events twice per year, but if we choose to rent out the <br />facility, as long as the company renting the facility applies for and is able to obtain a camping <br />permit following all guidelines, that it would be allowed. ERX would like to move forward with <br />this process. ERX Motor Park would also like to utilize land on property owned by Plaisted <br />Companies (PID: 75-110-1105) for a SECA License during large events. <br /> <br />Because of the incredible success of the events ERX has hosted thus far, we applied and <br />obtained a CUP that would combine all track elements (off-road and snocross) on a single plat. <br />During our meeting with City staff on September 14, 2016, it was indicated once approved, this <br />would eliminate the need to apply for a special event permits in the future for our larger events <br />that stay within land boundaries with the exception of our possible two events per year that <br />would allow special event camping on Outlot A. <br /> <br /> <br />Detailed Description <br />From the very beginning, Mr. Plaisted and Mr. Carlson have implemented a few fundamental <br />principles which have been consistently used to guide the organization through the years : <br /> <br /> ERX will be family and community focused. <br />o It will be a facility which will provide safe, family-friendly activities, with the <br />ultimate goal of creating value within the local communities and within the <br />powersports industry. <br /> <br /> ERX will utilize an operating philosophy grounded in integrity, and benevolence and <br />charitable activities will be a key part of the operation. <br />o Free admission has been, and will continue to be offered to charities, ministries, <br />schools and non-profits. ERX is proud to have partnered with a number of
