17-3910 AGENDAITEM May 8, 2017 Page 4 (11) Not create a nuisance which generates smoke, noise, glare, vibration, odors, fumes, dust, electrical interference, general unsightliness, or other means. The temporary use proposed is likely to generate a variety of localized impacts in terms of noise, glare, vibration, odors, fumes, dust, and general unsightliness. These impacts are anticipated to be minimized and mitigated by the remote location of theproposed activity in relation to inhabited neighboring residential properties. (12) Not cause excessive non-residential traffic on residential streets, parking needs that cause a demonstrable inconvenience to adjoining properties, traffic congestion, or unsafe access. The only access to the temporary use will be from a single entrance to County Road 112. Hennepin County has issued a permitfor that accessfor the temporary use. There are no local streets which would be impacted by traffic from the temporary use, and no local streets would experience parking impacts as a result of the use. Truck tra associated with the temporary use is anticipated to be almost entirely on Wayzata FUTI C Boulevard which is a Hennepin County arterial road. (13) Designed to take into account the natural, scenic, and historic features of the area and to minimize environmental impact. Based on the location and on the existing natural, scenic and historic features present, the temporary nature of the use suggests that no permanent negative impacts are anticipated. Potential long-term environmental impacts relative to theproposed use are anticipated to be minimal if any. Short term effects such as noise, vibration, glare and odor are expected to be relatively minor and due to the remote location should have minimal impact on neighboring uses.
