Motion by Councilmember Haas Steffen and seconded by Councilmember Beyer to adopt Resolution #97-07-179 approving the issuance of a conditional use permit based on Findings of Fact #0433 and declaring terms of permit to grade and export soils. This permit is granted contingent upon a resolution to the items addressed in the DNR letter, dated July 22, 1997 (a condition will be developed to address a staging plan, a better erosion plan will be developed and we will revisit the wetland and work to better protect that). Further discussion: Mr. Kurak indicated that was all agreeable to him. Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Gamec, Councilmembers Haas Steffen, Beyer, Beahen and Zimmerrnan. Voting No: None. Case #6: EAW Petition - Apple Ridge City Administrator Schroeder stated that this case came about because a petition was presented to the Environmental Quality Board (EQB) by interested parties requesting that an Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW) be done on the proposed Apple Ridge subdivision. He noted a letter from Hakanson Anderson Associates, Inc. which states they feel there are no significant environmental effects attributable to the subdivision, therefore, Council is requested to approve the findings of fact presented in the agenda. Charles Johnson, 6010 - 159th Lane NW, Ramsey, reported that one impact would be to the Hog-nose snake which has been found in the area. Motion by Councilmember Beahen and seconded by Councilmember Haas Steffen to adopt Findings of Fact #0434 regarding the determination on need for preparation of an Environmental Assessment Worksheet for the Apple Ridge development. Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Gamec, Councilmembers Beahen, Haas Steffen, Beyer and Zimmennan. Voting No: None. Motion by Councilmember Beahen and seconded by Councilmember Haas Steffen to adopt the conclusion, which reads as follows: On the basis of the foregoing findings and presentation of the petitioners' and supporting evidence, the City Council of the City of Ramsey concludes that the project is not likely to have significant environmental impacts and accordingly has determined that an EAW shall not be required for the project. Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Gamec, Councilmembers Beahen, Haas Steffen, Beyer and Zimmerman. Voting No: None.
