except the east 50 feet will be used for car display. The
site will have 7500 square feet of vehicle and office
showroom. 7500 square feet will allow the site to have 42

When Minnetonka Motors requested an expansion to their
conditional use permit the appearance of the landscaping was
discussed. At that time Mr. Traiser stated they would add
additional plantings to the existing landscaping along
Mainstreet, plus provide additional landscaping in the new
area. Staff would recommend that additional landscaping is
added along Mainstreet. Staff has notified the applicant of
this recommendation and advised the applicant to bring a
landscape plan with the additional planting to the meeting.
The applicant has stated he would be willing to plant
additional plantings. If the applicant does not bring a
landscape plan with the additional plantings to the meeting,
the staff would recommend an additional condition to the
added to the resolution regarding the additional
landscaping.

CONDITIONAL USE AMMENDMENT APPLICATION
420 MAIN STREET HOPKINS, MN
History
This application is basically intended to attach the easterly 50 ft. to
the use that is approved for 420 Main Street.
This has been the site of Minnetonka Motors for the past three (3)
years. They lost their line of credit and were forced out of business.
The new tenant is Inver Hills Mazda. Principals are as follows:
Owner: Paul Walser
President: Charles Hirsch
Manager: Douglas Sprinthall
Minnetonka Motors and Trakup did obtain a conditional use permit
amendment in 1992, but then the tenant backed out the lease.
Nature of this Application
The property at 420 Main (legally described in Exhibit A) has a
current permit for 24 cars.
Building area is 7,500 SF so code permits 42 cars (7500 180 per car)
Previously Minnetonka Motors used Lot 12 (legally described in
Exhibit B), however the conditional use permit did not cover that lot.
This application is intended to cover this Lot 12 and establish 42 cars
as the allowed use.
Applicant will provide landscaping in front of lot comparable to
existing landscaping.
Trakup is a partnership of William Traiser and Donald Soukup. They have owned this
property for the past 15 years. In the last 12 months, they have invested in a great
deal of money in exterior building appearance, including blacktop, paint and facia
improvements and the like.
