EG <br /> F <br /> Commissioner Anderson replied that he would want review by the Fire Chief because this is cold <br /> storage, and it is unknown as to what could spark a fire. He noted that recommendations could be <br /> made that may or may not need to be done in preparation for moving the manufacturing portion. <br /> Commissioner Walker agreed. <br /> Motion by Commissioner Walker, seconded by Commissioner Peters, to recommend that City <br /> Council adopt Resolution #22-085 Approving a Home Occupation Permit for a Container <br /> Business at 6131 Green Valley Road NW, directing the applicant to define the number of trips, <br /> business hours, and inspection by the Fire Chief to determine if changes are necessary to support <br /> manufacturing. <br /> Further discussion <br /> Commissioner VanScoy commented that it seems this use is inappropriate in a residential area, <br /> and he is concerned with allowing warehousing with the intent to move to manufacturing. He <br /> stated that an HOP is a place to start but when a business reaches this point it should look at <br /> alternatives. Commissioner Gengler agreed with Commissioner VanScoy noting that this sounds <br /> like a well-formed business enterprise and would not be appropriate in a residential area. <br /> Commissioner Walker commented that if the business employed 15 or 20 people,he would agree, <br /> but this is two or three employees,and they would like to operate on their,own property. He hoped <br /> that the business would outgrow this and then find another location in Ramsey to grow the <br /> business. He stated that he supports assisting a small business in reaching the next step. <br /> Commissioner VanScoy stated that he appreciates the intent but disagrees with this use in this area. <br /> Motion Failed.

He noted that under this motion, if adopted by the Council, if the applicant desired to <br /> add manufacturing they would need to come back and request an amendment to the HOP which C' <br /> would follow a similar process. <br /> L <br /> 7.02: Public Hearing: Consider Request for an Amended Conditional Use Permit to <br /> E; <br /> Expand an Existing Natural Gas Substation at 7607 173" Avenue NW (Project No. <br /> 22-119); Case of CenterPoint Energy <br /> Public Hearing <br /> Planning Commission/April 28,2022 <br /> Page 11 of 20 <br />
