MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br /> Monday,March 20,2017 <br /> 6:30 o'clock p.m. <br /> some noise but noted that the site is right next to the freeway and that he cannot imagine that anyone will <br /> know they are there. Fretham indicated the crushing will not occur at night. <br /> Fretham stated some of the challenge here is tying the property up for a period of time and then being able <br /> to balance it with the practicality of tying it up. Fretham stated one of the questions that he has to answer <br /> prior to committing to this is whether there will be enough materials coming off the Wayzata Boulevard <br /> job to make it worthwhile. Fretham stated he does have some experience with this type of work and that <br /> it really is a blend of being able to mix all of those components,being able to work with Hennepin <br /> County,and being able to supplement it to make it a legitimate short-term operation. <br /> Fretham stated he would like to point out that there is an indication they might need a separate conditional <br /> use permit for the berm and that he would like to process everything concurrently. <br /> Lemke asked what the hours of operation would be. <br /> Fretham indicated they would like to work with the road construction project,which will occur mainly <br /> during the day, but that there might be times where the road crews will work longer days. <br /> Thiesse stated they do not necessarily be tied to Hennepin County's schedule and that they could limit <br /> their work to the daytime. <br /> Fretham stated the crushing would not occur at night but the movement of trucks might occur during the <br /> night. Fretham stated it is likely Hennepin County will store some pipe and other materials to be used on <br /> the road project that might have to be loaded at night. <br /> Thiesse stated one of his concerns is possible headlights from a pay loader that are bouncing around and <br /> moving around since they can be a big distraction. <br /> Fretham stated he does not envision that being a problem but that he included everything in the <br /> application that could possibly raise a concern. Fretham stated in his view there will be very little <br /> evening or nighttime activity but that it would be nice to be able to do that occasionally. <br /> Thiesse asked if recycling of offsite materials was done on his other sites. <br /> Fretham indicated there was. Fretham stated as it relates to traffic,there would not be a parade of trucks <br /> running through downtown Long Lake and that there will be occasional trucks coming off the bypass. <br /> Fretham noted this site offers easy access versus coming in through downtown. <br /> Landgraver asked what type of other material they are contemplating bringing it. <br /> Fretham indicated it would be concrete and asphalt. <br /> Lemke asked how many trips a day in and out are anticipated. <br /> Fretham stated he would estimate approximately 2,000 loads over the course of a year,which would <br /> amount to seven loads a day. Fretham noted those loads will not occur over the course of a year but will <br /> be in spurts. Fretham stated some days there will be 50 to 100 loads and some days nothing. <br /> Page 13 of 43 <br />
