<br /> <br />e <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />Bogart of John Oliver & Associates, that an <br />application will be submitted at the appropriate time <br />for a Department of the Army permit. <br /> <br />2. <br /> <br />The Minnesota Historical Society, by letter dated <br />March 5, 1993, from Britta L. Bloomberg, commenting <br />that there are no properties in the Project area that <br />are listed on the National Register of Historic Places <br />or included in the Minnesota Historical Society <br />Inventory and that there are no archaeological, <br />historical, or architectural resources on or in <br />proximity to the Project site. <br /> <br />3. <br /> <br />Citizens Who Care, by letter dated March 15, 1993, <br />from Rolfe E. Anderson, with the following three <br />comments: <br /> <br />a. <br /> <br />The Project is not consistent with the City's <br />zoning ordinance and comprehensive land use map. <br /> <br />In response, the Project site was rezoned to <br />Planned Unit Development and the City's <br />comprehensive land use map amended to designate <br />the Project site for Highway Business uses by the <br />Elk River City Council on September 23, 1991 <br />(with respect to the northerly 17 acres), and <br />June 15, 1992 (with respect to the remaining 33 <br />acres).

The Project <br />will require the issuance of a conditional use <br />permit for a planned unit development. It is <br />anticipated that on one condition of the PUD <br />approval will be a requirement that the Project <br />bear the cost of improvements to surrounding <br />streets and intersections to ensure that the <br />Project does not degrade levels of service at key <br />intersections. The most recent communication <br />from the Minnesota Department of Transportation, <br />District 3, a letter dated October 15, 1993, from <br />Anthony J. Kempenich, District Traffic Engineer, <br />indicates that traffic at the key intersection of <br />Highway 169 and School Street will be at an <br />acceptable level of service and that certain <br /> <br />
