Page Four May 18, 1981 9. Maue Conditional Use Permit Request The City Administrator indicated that Mr. Maue's Conditional Use permit granted October 6, 1980 had expired and that Mr. Maue has reapplied for a Conditional Use permit allowing a temporary trailer home on his property on Tyler Street. The City Administrator further indicated that the Conditional Use permit was reviewed and considered by the Planning Commission and that the Planning Commission's action was to recommend denial of the Conditional Use permit. The City Administrator indicated that the Planning Commissioners were apparently not convinced of the sincerity of Mr. Maue's efforts to construct a single family home on the property. Mr. Dave Brat informed the City Council that another trailer home has been in the area for approximately seven years and has never received a Conditional Use permit. Councilman Toth explained that the City does have ordinances prohibiting trailer houses in residential areas but the City is not always able to enforce the ordinances. Mr. Maue indicated that he had not applied for an extension of the Conditional Use permit because he does not have clear title to the property and is not sure if he will receive title. Mr. Maue further indicated that it is his intention to build a single family dwelling on the property. COUNCILMAN TOTH MOVED TO ISSUE THE CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT TO MR. MAUE TO ALLOW A TRAILER HOME ON HIS PROPERTY ON TYLER STREET FOR A ~ERIOD OF SIX MONTHS BEGINNING JUNE I, 1981 FORA FEE OF $50.00. COUNCIL- MAN DUITSMAN SECONDED THE MOTION. THE MOTION PASSED 4-0.

Swanson Variance Request The City Administrator indicated that the Planning Commission must make a recommendation to the City Council before the City Council can take action and further indicated that it was his recommendation to continue the public hearing until the Planning Commission received the information necessary to make a recommendation to the City Council. COUNCILMAN DUITSMAN MOVED TO CONTINUE THE PUBLIC HEARING UNTIL THE PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION HAS BEEN RECEIVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL. COUNCILMAN SCHULDT SECONDED THE MOTION. THE MOTION PASSED 4-0. 11. Midwest Asphalt Conditional Use Permit and Mineral Extraction License Request Mr. Dave Belansky, Representative from Midwest Asphalt, was present to explain the type of operation Midwest Asphalt has proposed for the property and answer any questions the public or City Council may have. Mr. Belansky indicated that Midwest Asphalt's proposed operation is on 221st Avenue, just west of Highway #169, next to other gravel operations in the area, namely C. S. McCrossan and J. L. Shiely. Mr. Belansky further explained that Midwest Asphalt would work with the other operations regarding the finishing and grading of the sites after the ex- cavation of the minerals, and the maintenance of 221st Avenue. Mr. Belansky in- dicated that Midwest Asphalt does not use water in their gravel operation other than for dust control. Mr. Belansky indicated that there were five phases to the project spread over a 20 year period and that three to five years is planned for each phase. Mr. Belansky indicated that a burm would be placed and seeded to hide the equipment from the adjoining areas and further indicated that the final grade established during the rehabilitation would not be a flat surface, but an attempt would be made to provide some variety to the topography, as well as the trans- planting of as many trees as is practical.
