CASE # <br /> <br /> REQUEST FOR AN INTERIM USE PERMIT FOR <br />A TEMPORARY OFFICE STRUCTURE; CASE OF AMCOR PRECAST <br />By: Planning Consultant Jon Scalzo <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />On November 28, 1995, the City issued an interim use permit to Amcor Precast at 6640 Industry <br />Avenue N.W. for the utilization of a 24' x 60' modular office structure until June 30, 1997 to <br />complete their assessment of space needs for preparing a site plan to develop the site as a <br />permanent location for the applicant. After determining that it was premature, because of lower <br />than projected sales volume, to commit to developing permanent office space on the property, the <br />applicant applied for and was granted a second interim use permit of 2 years for the use of the <br />temporary use structure. The following items are enclosed for your review: <br /> <br />a) Site location map <br />b) Site plan <br /> <br />Observations: <br /> <br />The applicants are requesting another interim use permit to utilize the modular office structure <br />for a 2 year period. Amcor is presently looking for design build contractors for a 24,000 square <br />foot manufacturing facility to be built in the year 2000 with new offices and a batch plant to be <br />constructed in 2001. <br /> <br />The City has previously granted permits for temporary structures in the commercial and <br />industrial areas. Waste Management's permit for a temporary office structure was issued to be in <br />effect as long as it took for their final vertical expansion (3 years with 4 six month extensions <br />available). Listul's permit was granted for a one year period while they developed plans to <br />expand or relocate in Ramsey; they have received a one year extension. The School's permit was <br />issued for a 2 year period to allow time to construct the addition to Ramsey Elementary. <br />Rehbein's permit for a modular dwelling at the Links was to provide living quarters for the <br />project superintendent during construction of the golf course. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br /> <br />Staff r~commends to coritinue this application until time that the City is able to review and adopt <br />new text supporting the processing and applications of interim use permits. The text amendment <br />will require recommendation by the Planning Commission and action by the City Council. Staff <br />will be requesting a 60 day extension of the applicant's submission to allow for processing of the <br />text amendment. <br /> <br /> <br />
