Utility Plan This property isn't currently in the Urban Service District therefore we don't require city services currently. Wetland Delineation In 2016, Anderson Engineering performed wetland delineation on the rest of this property. All wetlands have been preserved. ERX is working with Anderson Engineering to perform an updated wetland delineation. Grading Except for the off -road truck track and the special event camping area, there will be no grading changes from the current state, at which time, ERX will apply for necessary permit(s). Camping As part of this CUP, per City staff's request, ERX is including unplatted Outlot A (PID: 75-725- 0010) as a special event camping area. ERX will ensure all codes are met with the Minnesota Department of Health. "Special event recreational camping area" means a recreational camping area which operates no more than two times annually per event planning company and for no more than 14 consecutive days. In 2018, the City Council approved allowing ERX to have two special event camping events and have three other special event camping events available for other organizations as long as they complete the MDH requirements. Impact to the Neighbors of ERX Motor Park The ownership and leadership team at ERX Motor Park realizes that there is a possibility of impacting our neighbors of the facility. To combat this, in the past we have stopped by our neighbors that are the closest to the event site, explained to them what was going on, offered them tickets, and dinner on us. We will continue to go above and beyond to make sure that our neighbors know what events we have coming to the facility. When it comes down to having events that may impact with noise, concerts, races, etc. we will assess the direction of the noise of such events. For concerts for example, we would position the stage so that the sound would have to travel over natural terrain (a hill) and through the woods before reaching the neighbors. Economic Impact for the City of Elk River Athletes, sponsors, business owners, attendees and event planners come to Elk River, MN from all over the US, Canada and several Scandinavian and European countries to ERX Motor Park. As these individuals travel here for ERX, the Elk River area experiences a significant positive financial impact. The impacts are most significant during the winter snocross seasons as teams and athletes continue to call Elk River "home" in their attempts to locate near the ERX track. Teams support local businesses by utilizing local restaurants, hotels, municipal liquor stores, grocery stores and gas stations. During large ERX events, the Elk River community is filled with Page 6
