Lonny Menard, 8940 181st Avenue N.W., Ramsey, the property owner, stated that ifa permit was <br />needed, the City was negligent in making him aware of that. He said he has been working in a <br />steel business and paying commercial taxes for 15 years. <br /> <br />Vice Chair Kociscak asked if the building would lend itself to a residential use. <br /> <br />Mr. Menard stated it doe~ not. <br /> <br />Commissioner Johnson suggested that some kind of business be operated at this location under a <br />conditional use permit. A business that would have a minimal impact on this property would be <br />desirable rather than disallowing its use. This potential use would have a maximum of two <br />trucks per day, which he said struck him as relatively minimal. <br /> <br />Vice Chair Kociscak questioned the amount of tonnage the applicant expects. <br /> <br />Ms. Jarmoluk, applicant, explained they didn't expect to exceed 20,000 tons at a time. This <br />amount should be legal in the spring off Highway 169. She said this building would be used <br />strictly to hold customers' goods. It would not produce a rust situation. There would be no <br />activity after 5:30 p.m. and none on weekends. <br /> <br />Motion by Commissioner Johnson, seconded by Vice Chair Kociscak, to close the public <br />hearing. <br /> <br />Motion Carried.
