Proposed Action.
Staff recommends the following motion: That the request for a
Conditional Use Permit to construct a 27,545 square foot refrigerated
addition is approved by Resolution No: 88 -67.
Approval of this motion will allow the applicant to construct a 27,545
square foot refrigerated addition.
Overview.
Super Valu is proposing to construct a 27,545 square foot addition at
their perishable site on 5th Street South. This addition will be
located on the north end of the site and will be refrigerated to a
temperature of 28 degrees. The addition will provide 6 -8 more docks.

Detailed Background.
Last summer Super Valu was granted a Conditional Use Permit to
construct a truck maintenance facility on this site. They may or may
not construct this facility on the site. However, they will be
requesting the City Council for a one year extension for this
Conditional Use Permit. I will be reviewing this proposal with the
idea that the truck maintenance facility will be constructed.
The following are the proposed and ordinance requirements for the
proposed addition:
I -1 Proposed
Side yard 20' 50'
Rear yard 20' 62.42'
F.A.R. .60 .25
Height 45' 34' 10"
Exterior Materials.
The new addition will match the existing building. The existing
building consists of creme color precast concrete panels along the
dock doors and prefinished insulated metal wall panels on the other
sides.
Parking.
The warehouse area requires 75 parking spaces. The current parking
lot has space for 83 cars. The applicant can increase the lot for 92
cars if necessary. The truck maintenance facility has an additional
84 spaces. This facility is required to have 38. The applicant meets
the ordinance requirements for parking.
Landscaping.
The existing site has 98 plantings on the site. The applicant will be
adding an additional 28 plantings on the site to meet the landscape
requirements for the new addition.
Director of Engineering.
The Director of Engineering has reviewed the plans and found them
acceptable.
The applicant has contacted the Nine Mile Watershed District.
Approval of this proposal should be contingent on the Watershed
District approving this development.
Fire Marshal.
The Fire Marshal has received the plans but as of this date has not
made any comment.

Access.
The access to the new addition will be the same as the existing. The
internal movement of trucks will remain as proposed when the truck
maintenance facility was approved. The truck dolly along the north
side of the property will be relocated to the south end of the parking
lot. The plan shows dolly pads and new asphalt paving south of the
present parking lot. This area currently is a grassy area that is
occasionally used for truck staging.
- Does the proposed addition have a traffic impact to the surrounding
area?
The staff was concerned that this addition would cut -off the north
access point to the site. This access point is important because
trucks do not have to go by the residential area to get to the site.
Super Valu has assured the City that the north access point will
remain open and trucks will be able to get to the docks internally
even with the addition. Super Valu had originally proposed 8 docks
but now will probably reduce that number to provide access - - -to- -the
docks from the north access.
When the truck maintenance facility was proposed there was a great
concern about the increase in traffic. This addition should not cause
an increase in traffic but provide for more efficient use and less
stacking on the site. There will always be the problem of the
independent trucker that gets lost in the residential neighborhood to
the south.
Does the addition impact the surrounding area?
The proposed addition is located on the north end of the site. The
elevation of the north end of the site is lower than the surrounding
area. Because the elevation at the north end of Super Valu, the
existing buildings and the addition are not that visible from the
surrounding areas. Along much of Fifth Street South there is a
landscaped berm and a cyclone fence with slats to provide screening.
Visually the addition will not be noticed greatly by the adjacent
parcels.
The only change that may be noticed is that trailers will now be
parked south of the parking lot. This area is -a truck staging area
presently so trucks are parking in this area occasionally now. The
applicant will be providing landscaping on both sides of the
entrance /exit on Fifth Street South to help block the view of the
truck parking on the south end of the site.

The addition is located on the north end of the site.- This part of
the site is the furthermost away from the residential area and also is
at a lower elevation than the abutting street to buffer any noise from
the site. The noise on the site is also buffered by landscaping and a
fence. The applicant has stated that the new addition will not create
more traffic, only a more efficient use of the site.
Alternatives.
1, Approve the Conditional Use Permit for the 27,545 square
foot addition. By approving this Conditional Use Permit
the applicant will be able to construct the addition.
2. Deny the Conditional Use Permit for the 27,545 square
foot addition. If the Commission chooses this
alternative they will have to formulate findings of fact
to support this denial.
3. Continue for further information. If the commission
feels that more information is needed, the item should be
continued.

It K - Underground Utility Plan
Refer to Sheet A -2 - Site Utility Plan for location of new and
existing utilities. There will be a new 10 inch water line added to
the east of the addition connected to two existing fire hydrants. The

building. The new line will tie into the existing 10 inch line that
extends to the 16 inch city main at 5th Avenue. The storm sewer will

positions with construction of this addition. The existing parking
lot can be increased to accept 9 additional spaces within the existing

layout would not significantly change the site plan. The existing
parking lot is 92 spaces and is not fully utilized. There are open
parking spaces during the day or night.
Item M - Trash Container and Pick -up Plan
