Voit, Inc., which has requested from the <br />city of Ramsey a conditional use permit for a microwave tower <br />and related equipment in an R-1 zone. The tower is to be <br />located on the property commonly known as 16510 Nowthen <br />Boulevard N.W., and legally described as Plat 89210, <br />Parcel 6600. <br /> <br />The Ramsey City Council discussed the conditional use permit <br />request at a meeting of the Council in December of 1982. At <br />this meeting it was suggested by the Mayor that an alternative <br />site for the microwave tower might be on property located <br />northwest of Parcel 6600. It has also been suggested another <br />alternative site might be on property located west of Parcel <br />6600. It is inappropriate for the Council to consider these <br />"alternative" sites when the issue before it is only whether <br />a conditional use permit should be granted for Parcel 6600. <br /> <br />Since the application of D. A. Voit, Inc. meets 'the criteria <br />for approval listed at 170.016E of %he Ramsey City Code, a <br />conditional use permit should be granted to D. A Voit, Inc. <br /> <br />At the time D. A. Voit, Inc. applied for the conditional use <br />permit, D. A. Voit, Inc. had entered into an oral agreement <br />with Group W Cable of Quad Cities, Inc. to lease Parcel 6600 <br />to %he cable company. Group W Cable of Quad Cities, Inc. <br />selected Parcel 6600 as the optimal site for its microwave <br />tower. The tower must be located in %he vicinity of the <br />selected site in order for Group W Cable of Quad Cities, Inc. <br />to effectively provide its services to the City of Ramsey. <br />Parcel 6600 is appropriate also due to the fact that it is <br />bordered by two busy streets, and it is not well suited for <br />other uses. Locating the microwave tower on Parcel 6600 <br /> <br /> <br />
