<br /> <br />13065 Orono Parkway <br />Elk River, MN 55330 <br /> <br />November 29, 2005 <br /> <br />File: 226-104P <br /> <br />Mr. Scott Harlicker <br />Senior Planner <br />City of Elk River <br />13065 Orono Parkway <br />Elk River MN 55330 <br /> <br />RE: CHRISTIAN COMMERCIAL PROPOSAL <br />CONCRETE MANUFACTURING BUll.DING <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Harlicker: <br /> <br />As requested, we have reviewed the proposal from Christian Commercial for the concrete <br />manufacturing building located north of County Road 33 and west of 1H 169. Based on <br />our review and comments received at the staff review meeting, we would offer the following <br />comments: <br /> <br />1. MnDOT has already reviewed this proposal relative to the existing access onto 1H 169. <br />MnDOT's response indicates that for an industrial type use, this access would not be <br />allowed to be used. Therefore, a condition on the proposal must be that the access be <br />provided by easement through the Plaisted Companies' property to the south. Unless <br />MnDOT commits in writing that the existing highway access can be utilized for <br />employees and/ or customer traffic, the parking lot connection to the existing driveway <br />must be eliminated and constructed in such a manner that direct access to the existing <br />driveway onto ill 169 is not allowed. <br /> <br />2. There is an existing house and three outbuildings on the property. According to City <br />ordinance, this can continue to be a rental operation as long as the renter is an employee <br />of the company. <br /> <br />3. The on-site septic system is shown to be constructed in an area that has a wooded <br />symbol on the site plan. A condition of the approval should be that the septic site be <br />tested prior to any work on the site to ensure that it is compatible with an on-site system. <br />Once it is determined to be compatible, it should be protected from all other types of <br />construction activities. <br />Phone: 763.635.1000 <br />Fax: 763.635.1090 <br /> <br />www.ci.elk-river.mn.us <br />
