SUBJECT: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AMENDMENT BY CAMAS MINNESOTA,INC. (EXTENDED HOURS) - CASE#CU 99-29/P.H. Request In an effort to keep up to current demands, CAMAS Minnesota, Inc. is requesting an amendment to their existing conditional use permit to allow screening, washing and crushing of gravel at their facility from 6:00 a.m. to 2:00a.m. Currently, CAMAS is allowed to wash gravel from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. and may screen and crush gravel from 6:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. CAMAS is also requesting permission to repair equipment at their mine 24 hours per day. • Attachments • A revised conditional use permit(the legal description of the subject property is contained in this document), and • a vicinity map showing the location of the subject property Background Shiely Company, now CAMAS,updated the conditional use permit for mineral excavation on the subject property in April, 1995. Two other mining companies had extracted gravel from this site prior to CAMAS' involvement. CAMAS' update brought the CUP on this property into compliance with the city's Environmental Impact Statement on mineral excavation. In October of 1995, CAMAS amended their conditional use permit to allow a temporary concrete ready-mix plant for Cemstone on the north end of the property. Marshall Concrete's temporary ready-mix plant on the south end of the property is not addressed in CAMAS' CUP. They obtained their own conditional use permit for this facility. In April of 1997 CAMAS amended their conditional use permit to allow washing of gravel from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. instead of the normal hours of 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. The city has not received any complaints regarding these extended hours. 411/ f:\shrdoc\b&z\stever\camascup.doc 13065 Orono Parkway • P.O.
