access from Blake Road will have to be approved by Hennepin county.

How is the applicant proposing to buffer the residential area from
the business area?
The ordinance requires the fence t,o be a type that captures vehis:le
ligh€:s. The applicant is proposing a 6 foot chain link/vinyl slat
fence on tha west and north sides of the' property. This type of
fence is being proposed because the fence does not look as bulky"
However, the applicant will erect a wood fence if the Commission
indicates a wood fence is preferred. The stnff would recoJ1lll'tend a
wood fence. The fence on the north side of the property will have to
be e>l:tended which the applicant has indicated he will do..
Most of the activity on the site occurs away from the residential
areas. The apartments to the west are buffered by the building and a
fence. The nearest apart:ment building to the west is oriented to the
north and south not in the direction of the site.
.
The r~sidential area to the north also does not have any apartments
looking into the site. The fence alonq ~le north lot line will block
any activity on the site.
Al t;G~a.ati vas .
L. Approve the Conditional'Use Permit with the conditions as
recommended by the staff~ By approving the Conditional Use
Permit, the applicant can construct a 6600 square foot retail
building.
2~ Deny the Conditional Use Permit. By denying the Conditional
Use Permit the applicant will not be able to construct the
building as proposed~ Findings should be outlined which
supports the denial of the Conditional Use Permit~
:3. Continue for further information~ If the Commission feels
further information is needed, the item should be continuedc
