M. She introduced the Committee members and asked the secretary to read the Public Hearing notice that was to have been published ten (10) days prior to the public hearing. e Mr. Koehler explained that due to an oversight of the Planning Depart- ment the notice was never published. The Joint Powers Attorney, Doug Swenson, advised the meeting should proceed as scheduled and continue on the next scheduled meeting, June 20th, 1979. Mr. Kern asked who actually had authority regarding his property, the Planning Department, City of Sti Ilwater, Stillwater Township, or Joint Powers. It was explained that he was to appear before the Joint Powers Committee who is a representative of the City of Stillwater and Stillwater Township. He questioned the fact that he has to deal with the Washing- ton County Planning Department. Doug Swenson explained that Dan Koehler of the Washington County Planning Department is the staff plan- ner for the Joint Powers Committee. Mr. Koehler questioned the reduction of 50 to 34 parking spaces as shown on the plan. Kern-Pauley have decided at the present time to sod the extra 16 spaces and in the future if necessary they would be able to expand to the 50 spaces. Dan stated that one of the conditions in the Special Use Permit would be if the parking is inadequate Kern-Pauley would agree to expand the parking lot. This was acceptable to Mr. Kern and Mr. Pauley. e Discussion arose concerning items to be shown on the detailed site plan. D All parking areas are to be paved with bitumen. 2) Six inch (611) concrete curbing (poured in place) surrounding the entire paved parking area. 3) A loading area for del ivery vehicles. 4) A screened and/or fenced area for the storage of waste and refuse. 5) Both handicapped parking stalls must be the closest stalls to the entrance of the bu iI di ng . .

A proposed drainage plan must be reviewed and approved by the City of Stillwater Engineer, Duane Ell i ot. 11) A definite, detailed landscaping plan. 12) A sketch and details of the proposed name sign. A sign permit must be issued prior to erection of the sign. Mr. Koehler stated the northern edge of the parking lot would not need curbing due to the possible future expansion of the park ing lot. e Kern-Pauley were in agreement to all of the above items except #9 and #10. They asked that the lighting scheme and drainage plan be sub- mitted at a later time. Mr. Koehler saw no problem in this. Conditions of the Special Use Permit will include, among others the following: 1) The site be developed as indicated on the submitted plans. 2) No food or beverage shall be served on the premises. (This would not include the use of vending machines). 3) Any future expans ion of the fac i I ity or development of the. site must be reviewed and approved by the Joint Powers Planning Committee and the Washington County Zoning Administrator. 4) All sanitary sewer and central water facilities shall be constructed in accordance with the engineering standards of the City of Stillwater. 5) Time limits will be placed on the completion of the landscaping. 6) The parking lot shall be paved before the facility opens for business. Condition #2 was clarified to state that no preparation of food would be al- lowed. However, packaged food and the use of a microwave oven would be allowed. e Mr. Pauley questioned the time factor invol ved in blacktopping the parking lot. He stated it would by physically impossible to blacktop in November or December. The Committee saw no problem when the parking lot is paved as long as it is done as soon as possible. e e e ji. -- Publ ic Hearing Kern-Pauley Racquetball Club June 6, 1979 Page Three Mr. Koeh ler noted that the performance bond can not be a personal check but must be a cashier's check or a bond. The amount of the performance bond will be the full cost estimate amount of the blacktopping and land- scaping. Mr. Pauley has submitted the legal description and appl ication for minor sub- division approval. The survey has yet to be completed because construction in the area makes it impossible to place permanent stakes. Cathy Buck noted that the Special Use Permit is conditioned on receipt of the certificate of survey and the deed. Dan stated a draft of the Special Use Permit will be written and mailed before the June 20th, 1979 -meeting. A motion was made to continue the public hearing at the June 20th, 1979 meeting. Motion seconded. Motion carried. Meeting adjourned at 8:00.
