City Council Minutes <br />January 22, 2019 <br />Page 11 <br />Councilmember Wagner asked how many self -storage units they were proposing <br />Mr. Anderson said the proposal is for around 60-90 units for both buildings. There <br />will not be one storage unit for each apartment. <br />Councilmember Wagner clarified Phase 1 was the building of the apartments and 60 <br />90 storage units. The second Phase does not contain additional self -storage units. <br />Mr. Anderson said their goal is to get one building up and immediately do the <br />second. <br />Councilmember Wagner asked why the Park and Recreation Commission did not <br />want to work with the park or land. Trail access should be explored. <br />Mr. Anderson said the Park and Recreation Commission had mentioned they want <br />cash to operate. <br />Councilmember Wagner was specifically wondering about trail access for the river <br />trail. <br />Mr. Anderson discussed the easement. He feels there is currently too much police <br />activity in the area. <br />David Williams, a member of the Parks and Recreation Commission, stated there <br />was a lot of discussion about easements but nothing fit. They also looked at the <br />topography but nothing worked with the DNR. <br />Councilmember Wagner asked again if the DNR was okay with the location of the <br />trails. <br />Mr. Anderson said they haven't gotten to that yet. <br />Mayor Dietz said he wants the DNR to be okay with this. He does not want the city <br />to be in conflict with the DNR. <br />Councilmember Westgaard did not have any issues with the general concept. He felt <br />a cul-de-sac would be a good choice and agreed with Mayor Dietz on working with <br />the DNR to reduce the impact on the bluff. He would like to get an official response <br />from the Parks and Recreation Commission about trail connections. He asked about <br />the parking issue. The ordinance states they must have 2.5 parking stalls per unit but <br />current parking proposals show only 2.06 to 2.26 stalls per unit. <br />Mr. Anderson stated he has an idea of how to meet the parking requirements. <br />Mayor Dietz asked how many square feet each storage area is. <br />P0VEIEI II <br />NATURE <br />
