Hakanson <br />Anderson <br />Assoc., inc. <br /> <br />Engineers, Surveyors & <br />Landscape Architects <br /> <br />November 16, 1989 <br /> <br />Mr. Gerald Zimmerman, Chairman <br />Planning & Zoning Commission <br />city of Ramsey <br />15153 Nowthen Blvd. N.W. <br />Ramsey, MN 55303 <br /> <br />Re: <br /> <br />Site Plan for Building Expansion - Waltek, Inc. <br />14310 Sunfish Lake Boulevard <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Zimmerman: <br /> <br />We have reviewed the proposed site plan for Waltek, Inc. and offer <br />the following comments: <br /> <br />General Considerations <br /> <br />Waltek is proposing to add on to an existing building. The <br />existing building is 3,200 SF and would be expanded to 6,200 SF. <br />The building addition is proposed to be of the same material and <br />design as the existing building (sheet metal/pole barn). The <br />existing building and proposed addition would be utilized as <br />warehouse/storage area. <br /> <br />Buildinq Issues <br /> <br />While not indicated on the drawing, it is assumed that the floor <br />elevation of the addition will be 889.5 which is the same as the <br />existing structure. This meets the 18" elevation requirement above <br />city streets. <br /> <br />City Code requires buildings to be 50% other than metal, however, <br />the City has in similar situations allowed expansion of existing <br />buildings to be of like material. Due to the location of the <br />addition, it would make little aesthetic difference whether all <br />metal or an alternative cladding is used. In lieu of this <br />requirement, P&Z may wish to consider whether the east side of the <br />existing structure (side facing road) should be reclad in a manner <br />to meet the zoning ordinance. <br /> <br />Ail final plans must be certified by a registered architect or <br />engineer. <br /> <br />ZZ2 Monroe Street <br />Anoka, Minnesota 55303 <br /> <br />612/427-5860 <br /> <br />Fax 61 2/427-3401 <br /> <br />Eugene J.
