Mr. Middaugh explained to the Commission the oversight in the Permitted Uses in the newly adopted Zoning Ordinance. Mr. Mapson said the church would use the trailer for Sunday School classes and would be located 5' from the present building. Commissioner Kreuser expressed concern about the 5' distance in the event of a fire. Mr. Mapson said the only reason for the 5' distance was to facilitate the children going to the trailer in inclement weather and would place it whatever distance was required. CommissionerDriessen felt the skirting of the trailer should include the tongue to make it more attractive. There was discussion on the need for a new Conditional Use Permit to move the trailer during construction.

Mr. Middaugh stated they have submitted a request for 50 years. Mr. Duffy stated they felt justified in asking for 50 years because of borings taken on the site, the expected rate of extraction, and the demand for the product. He said his client intends to put up a permanent brick-type building (rather than a shack), asphalt the driveway and keep the screening and fencing that exist. His client also would, at the end of the 50 year period, do with the land whatever the City had it zoned as at that time. He said this client needed a commitment of this type because of previous stated reasons, amount of money he is going to invest, and it has been his past experiences that this is more favorable for both parties involved. Mr. Duffy cited several examples in Edina, St. Paul, and Minneapolis where there are problems because of politics. Chairman Hinkle stated he did not feel comfortable with the 50 year time. Commissioner Driessen said he did not like the wording on the request. Mr. Middaugh explained they would have to meet the requirements each year of the City's mineral extraction ordinance. There was discussion on the water runoff. Mr. Duffy said the operation would recycle its own runoff water.
