Mabusth, Building ft Zoning Administrator <br />Dates June 14, 1990 <br />Subject: #1547 Metropolitan Waste Control Commission (MWCC), <br />Intersections of West Fr.rndale Road ft County Road 15 - <br />Conditional Use Permit - Public Hearing <br />Zoning District - LR-IA <br />Pertinent Ordinance - .. , , tSection 10.23, Subdivision 4 (A) - Conditional use permit <br />required for construction of an underground vault to house <br />sewage meter installed on existing sewage force main. <br />List of Exhibits <br />Exhibit A - Application <br />Exhibit B - Property Owners List <br />Exhibit C - Plat Map <br />Exhibit D - Cook's Report dtd 6/13/90 <br />Exhibit E - Certificate of Survey <br />Exhibit F - Hennepin County DOT Permit <br />Exhibit G - Site Plan, Profile, Plan ft Sections <br />Review of Application - <br />The MWCC proposes the installation of a meter station within <br />the County Road right-of-way and property owned by the Nature <br />Conservancy at the intersections of West Ferndale Road and County <br />Road 15. The meter station itself will be underground with a <br />control panel installed above existing grade. The City <br />Engineer's report advises that the control panel is the <br />control panel that was used at the Orono Lift Station. The <br />control panel is 6' in height, 2' in width and 6 long. Cook s <br />repo*t also suggests the need for landscape screenino for the <br />control panel. It would be staff's recommendation that if land­ <br />scaping is to be considered, that special care be given to the <br />type of landscaping so as to not create any sighting problems at <br />the intersection of Ferndale and the County Road. <br />The MWCC is obtaining both temporary and permanent easements <br />from the Nature Conservancy, for the meter station. In reviewing <br />Exhibits F and G, it would appear that a small section of tne <br />eastbound right-hand lane will be temporarily removed during <br />construction. The eastbound lane will continue to function <br />through the construction, and as Cook's <br />will not Involve any restriction with the use of Ferndale Road.
