City Council Minutes December 18, 2023 S. Open Forum Page 2 Daniel Krueger,18682 Queen Circle NW, stated it was a great decision to close the road for downtown trick -or -treating. He also stated his concerns regarding Outlot A, the private Troy Street, and the new development on Salem Street. Mr. Krueger stated he uses the corner to turn around about 12 times a year. He laid gravel down on the road and was turned in for a code violation. He would like to buy that part of the road. He has a court trial in March regarding the road situation and wanted the city to know that he will not be removing the rock until his case is finalized. He expressed his concerns that he does not want any disputes with the city regarding the rock being there and is asking the city to allow him to have that part of the road surveyed at his expense. The Council will discuss this on a future agenda. 6.1 City of Elk River Volunteer of the Month Mayor Dietz delayed the December Volunteer of the Month to the January 2, 2024, Council meeting. 7.1 Conditional Use Permit: Amend Planned Unit Development Agreement to Raise the Permitted Sign Height to 61' with Electronic Messaging.
