The proposed use is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Staff does not see a need to impose specific conditions to satisfy this standard. 3. mill not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of surrounding vacant property. While all the properties abutting the subject parcel on the east side have homes and other structures on them, they are larger parcels (16-70 acres) and could be subdivided in the future. Staff recommends no motorized events shall occur within 1,000 feet of any residence,livestock shelter, and/or arena, regardless of when they are erected. It is understood this can affect future uses on the subject parcels,but this is to ensure the normal and orderly development will not be impeded on surrounding properties. 4. mill be served adequately by and will not adversely affect essential public facilities and services including streets, police and fire protection, drainage, refuse disposal, mater and sewer systems,parks and schools;and will not, in particular, create traffic congestion or interference with traffic on adjacent and neighboring public thoroughfares. As stated before,by the end of 2024, the 169 Redefine project will be complete and with the conversion of US Highway 169 to a freeway,this will greatly affect traffic patterns in the area. Staff recommends that all ingress/egress functions related to the subject parcel/CUP occur at Brook Road and all access points be removed on US Highway 169 by August 2024, or at a future CUP,whichever occurs first. Staff will work with the applicant on the location of this Brook Road access. Portions of the subject parcels are now located in the Future Urban Service District.Although the current project does not require city services, some of the permitted and conditional uses in the XCR district will require city services and this will have to be addressed in the future. MnDOT has expressed concerns with past snow-making activities that have created hazardous conditions to the highway system. State statute X160.2715 - Right-Of-Way Use;Misdemeanors states it shall be unlawful to obstruct any highway or deposit snow or ice thereon. 5. mill not involve uses, activities,processes, materials, equipment and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any persons or property because of excessive traffic, noise, smoke,fumes,glare, odors, dust or vibrations. Again, the main uses on the campus are racing in nature where varying levels of noise are expected. With hours of operation and the recommended condition of noise generated on the property via the Conditional Use Permit shall comply with those outlined in the MPCA Guide to Noise Control,this should regulate excessive noise. As for excessive traffic, the recommend condition of an alternate access point should limit excessive slowing down/stopping traffic on Highway 169. 6. Vill not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural, scenic or historic feature of major importance. The subject parcels that are a part of the CUP have a significant number of wetlands throughout. The applicant is having a wetland delineation completed on the parcels shown on the exhibit labeled "Wetland Delineations". Section 30-1852 of the ordinance outlines setbacks from wetlands. While the site plan dated 3/24/2022 shows the approximate locations of existing and future trails, staff will continually work with the applicant on the location of future trials to ensure they are not impacting wetlands and/or required buffers/setbacks. Other development/structures not shown on the site plan dated 3/24/2022 will require an amendment to the CUP.
