c. Adequate off -site stacking for access and egress without impacting U.S. Highway 169. 12. The Aggregate Commercial 6th Addition plat (Case File P 22-05) shall be recorded. 13. Noise generated on the property via the Conditional Use Permit shall comply with those outlined in the MPCA Guide to Noise Control. 14. The changeable copy sign shall not exceed 70 square feet and must comply with the standards set forth in Sec. 30-864 (e). A sign permit is required. 15. A Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Appropriation Permit shall be required for any water use that is above 10,000 gallons a day or totaling 1 million gallons or more within a year. This includes snow -making applications and spraying for dust control and other construction needs. 16. Conditional Use Permit (CU 18-10) will become void upon the recording of this permit. Background/Discussion The subject property is east of Highway 169 between the 213`l' and 221 s' Avenue alignments. The property is zoned Extreme Commercial Recreation (XCR) where Off -Road Racing Facilities require a Conditional Use Permit. The applicant requests an amendment to the previously approved CUP to permit expansion of their large track, construct two roofed viewing structures, and install a changeable copy sign (approximately 70 sq. ft.). Overall, the current functions/activities on site will continue as they have, but with the addition of a few additional structures and a track expansion. The conditions from the 2018 CUP have been incorporated into this amendment. To complete the track expansion, ERX has applied for a Platted Exemption to plat a portion of the property to include the expanded track. This application will be reviewed by the City Council. Transportation/ Circulation The site has three access points to and from Highway 169. The submitted site plan shows two access points to be used for spectators and one for participants/riders. A third future access is shown directly across from 213"' Avenue. By the end of 2024, the 169 Redefine project will be complete and the conversion of US Highway 169 to a freeway will greatly affect traffic patterns, primarily overserved with a lack of openings in traffic and providing minimal opportunities to safely enter/cross US Highway 169. Staff has spoken with the applicant regarding a future access at Brook Road and they understand the long-term vision for the connection that would then provide access to the interchange at CR 33 and Highway 169. The applicant is in ownership of the necessary properties to establish a connection to Brook Road.
