The Building and Zoning Administrator noted that the City's solid waste ordinance requires United Power Association to go through a conditional use permit.

Mr. Rohlf indicated the City has not. as of this time. received final plans and specifications. Mr. Dan MaConnon of United Power Association indicated the reason they have no final plans and specifications is because Anoka County will not give a release for the project until they have all the permits for the project. which includes the conditional use permit. Mr. MaConnon stated he cannot receive the Conditional Use Permit from the City until he has final plans and specifications. and therefore is in a Catch 22 situation. He further stated he is proposing to submit final engineering documents as generated after the release of the project by Anoka County and further that these documents would be released for review before construction begins. Mr. MaConnon stated that he does have the preliminary plans and specifications ready at this time. Mr. Dan MaConnon reviewed the preliminary plans and specifications with the Planning Commission.
