MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO CITY COUNCII.MEETING <br /> Monday,May 8,2017 <br /> 7:00 o'clock p.m. <br /> 14. #17-3910 LAKE WEST DEVELOPMENT,LLC,3245 WAYZTA BOULEVARD WEST, <br /> INTERIM USE PERMIT: TEMPORARY USE FOR CONSTRUCTION STAGING.—Continued <br /> access for the residential development is to be located. That access has been approved by Hennepin <br /> County as a temporary construction access for this recycling activity. The Watershed District has <br /> approved an erosion control permit for the construction staging activity. <br /> The Long Lake Fire Chief has indicated no concerns with use of the site for construction staging. The <br /> public works director has indicated the location is likely as good of a location that the contractor will find <br /> for construction staging. <br /> The site plan suggests that temporary lighting will be likely employed but that is not known for a fact. In <br /> order to minimize traffic flow issues, some work might occur at night and it would be appropriate that any <br /> temporary lighting be downcast or directed away from residential areas. The site plan indicates a <br /> proposed visual and noise screening berm along the west and south boundaries of the site. The applicant <br /> is working with the Pollution Control Agency to establish parameters and obtain permits for that permit, <br /> which will become an amenity for future residential development. The City will require a grading plan be <br /> approved for that and potentially will require a conditional use permit based on the volume of permanent <br /> fill material. <br /> The applicant has suggested that to make this use financially viable,the site might be used as a recycling <br /> yard for projects other than just the Wayzata Boulevard improvements. The Planning Commission <br /> looked at this use and recommended that it should be solely for activities related to the Wayzata <br /> Boulevard improvement project and should not be used to support other projects. The Planning <br /> Commission did not want the industrial use at this site to become a regional site and it should have a <br /> definite end date commiserate with the Wayzata Boulevard improvements, which will likely last three or <br /> four years. <br /> The Planning Commission has reviewed this application on two separate occasions and recommended <br /> unanimous approval based on the following conditions: <br /> 1. End date of the use to be no later than completion of the Wayzata Boulevard improvements or <br /> three years,whichever is sooner. <br /> 2. Use of the site is intended solely for activities related to the Wayzata boulevard improvement <br /> project and may not be used to support other projects. <br /> 3. Use of the site shall be subject to Orono Code standards with regard to noise, lighting, dust <br /> control, street maintenance,etc. The hours of operation are to be limited as follows: <br /> - Monday through Friday,normal construction hours,7 a.m.to 8 p.m. <br /> - Saturday, 8 a.m.to noon only and limited to low-volume in-out activity,no heavy hauling. <br /> - Sunday, no activity whatever. <br /> 4. Appropriate permits to be obtained from Hennepin County, Minnehaha Creek Watershed District, <br /> MPCA, and any other agencies or governing authorities as may be required for activities on the <br /> site. The proposal must meet MPCA guidelines and provide dust control from construction and <br /> recycling activities. <br /> Page 11 of 34 <br />
