COUNCIL BUSINESS: <br /> <br />Case #1: Home Care Month, November 1995 <br /> <br />Sharon Ringwalski of Metro Home Health Care presented Council with some facts relating <br />to home health care and asked that Council adopt a resolution proclaiming Home Health <br />Care Month. She also extended an invitation to Council to attend Metro Home Health <br />Care's open house. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Beyer and seconded by Councilmember Beahen to adopt <br />Resolution 995-11-251 proclaiming Home Care Month, November 1995. <br /> <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Hardin, Councilmembers Beyer, Beahen and <br />Peterson. Voting No: None. Absent: Councilmember Zimmerman. <br /> <br />Case #2: <br /> <br />Request for Extension to Site Plan Approval; Case of Bernie <br />Vevea, Ve-Ve, Inc. <br /> <br />Zoning Administrator Frolik explained that on October 22, 1991, the City approved an <br />application from Mr. Bernie Vevea of Ve-Ve, Inc. for site plan approval to construct a <br />5,900 square foot expansion to his existing facility located at 14047 Azurite Street NW. <br />City code establishes that site plan approvals are effective for one year. Since that time, the <br />City has granted three one-year extensions to the site plan for the expansion. She explained <br />some areas in the site plan that would be deficient if the plan had been granted approval <br />more recently. <br /> <br />City Administrator Schroeder stated that staff was originally going to recommend denial of <br />Mr. Vevea's request. However, we have talked with Mr. Vevea and it's his expectation <br />that he will be able to construct the extension this spring. He told Mr. Vevea that he <br />(Schroeder) would recommend that Council grant this extension with the caveat that it <br />would be the last extension. He then recommended Council approve the extension until the <br />end of September 1996. He added that he and Mr. Vevea had also talked about economic <br />development activities and we decided we would talk about EDA participation. <br /> <br />Mr. Vevea stated he wanted to do a lot work with Ryan Schroeder and the City Engineer <br />and he believes it will happen. With the addition, we were going to go over 16,000 square <br />feet. The state ordinance says you have to put in a fur sprinkling system and without City <br />water in that area, he would first have had to put in a holding pond, a fire pump, etc. This <br />would have cost as much as the addition so we did quite an extensive amount of work with <br />an engineer to put up fire walls, etc. Mr. Vevea explained what his business manufactures. <br /> <br />Mayor Hardin commented that Ms. Frolik brought up some changes that would not be <br />approved today that were approved four years ago. He inquired if Mr. Vevea is willing to <br />discuss these with City staff. <br /> <br />Mr. Vevea replied he will discuss anything the City wants and whatever Mr. Schroeder <br />recommends. <br /> <br />Mr. Schroeder offered to bring the discussion points back to Council. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Peterson and seconded by Councilmember Beyer to adopt <br />Resolution 095-11-252 approving Mr. Bernie Vevea's request for an extension to the 1991 <br />site plan for the expansion of Ve-Ve, Inc. <br /> <br />City Council/November 14, 1995 <br /> Page 5 of 13 <br /> <br /> <br />
