Commissioner Bauer asked for more information on access using Riverdale from both directions of Highway 10 and whether that would change following the highway project. Planning Manager Larson replied that there would be no changes at this time but recognized that once this project is completed there would be pressure to extend the freeway west towards Elk River. He stated that most likely that intersection would be eliminated and become a frontage road. Commissioner Van Scoy asked if the change marks noted in the staff presentation are reflected in the draft resolution. City Planner Martin commented that the draft resolution includes all the change marks, but staff reviewed those this morning and has been in conversation with the applicant. He confirmed that the draft resolution includes all change marks identified thus far. Commissioner Anderson asked when this would go before the City Council. City Planner Martin replied that the intent would be for the Planning Commission recommendation to go to the City Council on Monday, August 12th Citizen Input Lucy Aveen-West,representing the applicant,thanked the Commission for considering the request and for the cooperation of staff throughout this process. Commissioner Anderson asked where motor vehicles would be repaired. Ms. Aveen-West replied that repair would not be completed at this location as that is handled at their shop in Coon Rapids.
