Mr. Bearl said he would like to request that the blacktopping~requirement be waived for the driving and parking areas since the nature of their business requires heavy equipment to be driven and parked' on the property and blacktop would have to be constantly repaired due to breaking up etc., from the equipment. He asked that he be allowe~t to install limerock instead. Motion by Councilman Cox and seconded by Councilman Mickelson to waive the blacktopping requirement due to the specific nature of this business and the kind of equipment that is driven on and parked at this business. Motion carried. Voting yes: Mayor Gamec, Councilmen Cox, Mickelson, Reimann, and Sorteberg. Voting no: None. The curbing is to be deleted from the plan. The development contract should indicate that all street improvement for Tungsten Street be accomplished as proposed in the approval of the Ramsey 67 Plat. Administrator Schnelle said the development contract will be ready for Council approval at the next meeting. Councilman Cox noted that the septic System would have to be at least 20 feet away from the building. He also cautioned Mr. Bearl that the lettering on the side of the building constituted a sign, and that it is oversized as shown on the plan and not permissible under the Sign Ordinance. Mr. Bearl asked if he could go up a little ways with brick or whatever to keep the building the same color and somewhat in step with what they have and still dress it up. Consensus was that he could install brick 1/3 of the height of the building across the side facing Industry Avenue. Motion by Councilman COx and seconded by Councilman Reimann to direct the staff to prepare a development contract and site plan in conjunction with Minnesota Utilities Contracting for their proposed addition. Motion carried. Vot~&ng yes: Mayor Gamec, Councilman Cox, Mickelson, Reimann and Sorteberg. Voting no: None.
