b) Albertville - Mooney Addition / Mobile Site Plan Amendment
Al Nations with Nations and Company was present to represent the Mooney
Addition. He presented the Commission members with colored drawings of
amended site plan. It was originally proposed to the commission as a C-
Store/Holiday Station. Since then it has been changed to a Mobile Station. The
rooflines and building have been modified to add a front, glass atrium and
pitched roof on the car wash to screen the car wash equipment. The trash
enclosure has been relocated from the middle of the parking lot to a location
adjacent to the west side of the building. The vacuum and air service equipment
has been relocated form the east side of the building to a location north of the
canopy in the easterly part of the parking lot. The gas pumps have been set at an
angle as opposed to perpendicular to CSAH 19. There were a few other minor
modifications to the site plan.
McCormack questioned signage. Do they need a variance? He wanted to bring
this to their attention before they go ahead with the Mobile emblem on the
building.
McCormack asked about the trail or sidewalk in the development.
Chair Brown recalled what was discussed previously when it was going to be a
C-Store/Holiday Station.
Mealhouse and Sherman thought it was not included in the plan. Mr. Nations
commented they would put some type of a sidewalk or trail in.

PUBLIC HEARINGS
a) Ordinance Amendment
· Park Land and Trail Dedication Requirements
Opened the Public Hearing at 7:25 p.m.
Jack Lowry was present to discuss the Park Land and Trail Dedication
Requirements. He has reviewed the language and it sounds good with the
exception of the study portion. If the City were to consider approving this as
an amended Ordinance it could possibly hold up a development. He was
wondering if it is possible to set up some type of agreement to put funds into
escrow to keep the project going. Then when the study is completed an
adjustment could be made to the amount escrowed for the Park Land and
Trail Dedication Fee.
City Planner Sherman thought it is possible to consider the option of putting
funds into escrow to keep the development to progress.
Chair Brown asked if anyone in the audience had comments. No additional
comments were made.
Chair Brown closed the public hearing at 7:40 p.m.
Bauer made a motion to approve the Ordinance Amendment on the Park
Land and Trail Dedication Requirements with the City Attorney comments.
Meyer seconded the motion. All voted aye.
· Regarding "PUD" Planned Unit Development District
Opened the Public Hearing at 7:41 p.m.
City Planner Sherman briefly went over the PUD proposed in the memo.
