include rite stations as permitted uses. The facility is proposed to have one access onto Armstrong Boulevard NW. The site is not in the Metropolitan Urban Service Area and will be serviced with an on-site well and septic system. The building is proposed to be 10,856 square feet in size. Lot coverage, including impervious surfaces, is restricted to 25% of the lot area in this residential district, or 54,450 square feet in this case. If the building only consumes one-fifth of the coverage allowance, lot coverage compliance is not anticipated to be an issue. The final site plan should include impervious surface calculations. The structure meets all of the setback requirements and will be constructed of brick, pre-cast stone panels, and some decorative metal panels. Council will have to specifically approve the use of the decorative metal panels. The structure complies with the 35-foot height restriction, except that there is a decorative, metal facade that is proposed to be attached to the hose tower. This decorative piece extends the height of the building to 37 feet. City Code exempts fire hose towers from height restrictions, so no variance will be necessary. A sufficient number of parking spaces are proposed and they will be surfaced with bituminous. It is anticipated that the parking lot may be expanded to the west at some point in the future. The final site plan should specify the use orB-612 concrete curb on the perimeter of all bituminous except on the west boundary of the parking lot.

Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Gamec, Councilmembers Anderson, Hendriksen, Connolly, and Zimmerman. Voting No: None. Case #6: Request for Final Plat Approval of Business Park 95 Eighth Addition; Case of City of Ramsey Community Development Director Frolik stated that the City of Ramsey is in the process of platting another lot in the Business Park 95 Industrial Park. The area to be platted is generally north of the intersection of 140th and Radium, and south of Industry Avenue. In the Industrial District, the minimum lot size is one acre and the minimum lot width is 200 feet. The proposed lot is 6.6 acres in size and is more than 300 feet wide at 140th and at Industry Avenue. The lot width will be developed by Systematic Refrigeration and public access is planned from Radium and 140th. Systematic Refrigeration plans to expand to the east in the future. In the event Systematic Refi'igeration does not expand to the east and that property is developed by another business, Outlot A has been platted in the southeast comer of the plat to provide for a future extension of a public street to the east if it becomes necessary. The Planning Commission reviewed the sketch plan on February 1, 2000 and recommended final plat approval. Motion by Councihnember Zimmerman, seconded by Councilmember Connolly, to adopt Resolution #00-02-041 granting final plat approval to Business Park 95 Eighth Addition.
