Mr. Kveton stated that he understands the City has been under staffed but, in working with City <br />staff, he has found them delightful to work with. <br /> <br />Case #5: Request for Site Plan Amendment of Zitco Building; Case of Lowell Zitzloff <br /> <br />Community Development Director Frolik stated that Lowell Zitzloff submitted a site plan for a <br />26,096 square foot multi-tenant retail building and self-service mi~l'storage located at 6111 State <br />Highway #10 that was approved by the Council on October 12, 1999. The site plan submitted by <br />Lowell Zitzloff consisted of using rock face block for the building exterior, which complies with <br />City Code architectural standards. Lowell Zitzloff is asking for an amendment to the present <br />City Council approved site plan. The amendment would consist of allowing Zitco building the <br />option to use pre-cast concrete panels for the rear and side walls of the multi-tenant building. <br />Rock face block would be retained on the front wall. It was noted that precast concrete panels <br />will still comply with Ramsey City Code Architectural standards. Staff recommends approval of <br />the Site Plan amendment proposed by Lowell Zitzloff for the option to use pre-cast concrete <br />panels for the side and rear walls of the multi-tenant building. <br /> <br />Lowell Zitzloff stated they have a lot of block buildings experiencing deterioration and more <br />maintenance than spancrete exteriors. He advised that spancrete can be colored and is more <br />costly to construct but less maintenance. He stated that this has not been finalized but he would <br />like permission to use either one. <br /> <br />Councilmember Anderson asked why this request was not raised before the Planning <br />Commission. <br /> <br />Mr. Zitzloff explained the problem is the time it took to get the project approved which resulted <br />in winter construction. He noted that spancrete is aesthetically pleasing and can be erected more <br />quickly than block during winter construction. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Connolly, seconded by Councilmember Anderson, to approve the <br />option for the utilization of pre-cast concrete panels on the rear and side walls of the Zitco <br />building proposed to be developed at 6I 11 State Highway #10. <br /> <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Pro tem Zimmerman, Councilmembers Connolly, <br />Anderson, and Hendriksen. Voting No: None. Absent: Mayor Gamec. <br /> <br />Case//6: <br /> <br />Request for Authorization for Execution of a Development Agreement with <br />Ramsey B&B L.L.C. <br /> <br />This item was addressed earlier in the meeting. <br /> <br />City Council/January 25, 2000 <br /> Page 15 of 35 - <br /> <br /> <br />
