It The City Council of the City of Elk River finds that the Elk Park Center Project: 1. will not endanger, injure or detrimentally affect the use and enjoYment of other property in the immediate vicinity or the public health, safety, morals, comfort, convenience or general welfare of the neighborhood or the City. This Project will bring increased traffic to the City of Elk River and in particular to the area surrounding the proposed Project. However, it is the City Council's judgment that this traffic will not endanger, injure or detrimentally affect the use or enjoYment of other property. The increased tax base and additional services which the Project will provide the community result in a substantial net benefit to the City, including the immediate surrounding area, from the Project. 2. Will be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. e The City'S Comprehensive Plan designates this property for Highway Business uses, which the Project proposes. 3. will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of surrounding vacant property. The Project will have no negative impacts on the development of surrounding property; and will have a positive benefit by helping fund the extension of public utilities which will serve surrounding properties. 4. Will be served adequately by and will not adversely affect essential public facilities. -- The project can be served by existing and proposed public utilities, and will help fund the extension of public utilities which will benefit and contribute to the development and growth of residential and commercial property in the City. Off-site traffic impacts of the Project will be managed by the redesign of surrounding roads as necessary to ensure that the Project will not create traffic congestion or interference with traffic on adjacent and neigp~oring public thoroughfares. 7.
