RAMSEY AUTO BODY (Formerly Bill's Auto Body) REGARDING THE CONSTRUCTION OF A CONCRETE BLOCK BUILDING Mr. Bill Aydt and Mr. Craig Pladsen approached the Council regarding his intention to construct another building (40' X 70') for expansion of his existing business. He mentioned the possibility of subdividing a portion of his pmoperty into three one-acre lots and Mr. Plason constructing a self-service oar wash on the property. A discussion was held on a driveway for the car wash. A discussion was also held regarding the UMB zoning which was granted to Mr. Aydt so that his investment would have protection for future resale. In this regard, the City attorney alluded to Paragraph 170.015 I(3) Areas of Standards and Permitted Uses for UMB Districts which showed permitted uses for this zoning; he also pointed out, the portion stating 'Retail business if~the City Council Shall Find No Adverse Impact on the Area."
