Thursday, February 19,1998
10:00 a.m. - PECDD Conference Room
ATTENDING:

The committee reviewed, discussed, and recommended the following:
1. Proposed Barber Shop -1' Ave West between Wheaton's and the Hearing Aid
Shop. A barber shop has been proposed for the 25' lot between Wheaton's and the Hearing
Aid Shop on 1st Ave West. The property is in a B4 zone which has no setback requirements.
It is located in the Downtown Parking District. Parking requirements are 1 space per 400 sq
ft of gross floor area. The proposed building would be 1560 sq ft with an apartment above.
A total of 6 parking spaces would be required. The 25' lot proposed for the barber.shop is
not large enough to meet the parking requirements. The owners of Wheaton's and the
Hearing Aid Shop are willing to grant a cross -easement agreement for parking on their
property to the rear (west) of their businesses. Since Wheaton's and the Hearing Aid Shop
were existing businesses when the Downtown Parking District was established, they are
exempt from parking requirements. However, committee members are not sure whether
businesses in the Downtown Parking District are permitted to give away or allow someone
else to use the parking they do have when they themselves do not meet the parking
requirements. Glen will be asked to give an opinion. Diana will let the proposed owner know
that the committee is waiting for an opinion from Glen. She will also give him information
regarding requesting a variance.
2. Site Review Procedures. A discussion was held regarding Clarence's Memo to the City
Council regarding Site Review Procedures. All complete plans received by the City by
10:00 a.m. on Monday morning will be presented at the Site Review Meeting that week.
There is also an option for developers to schedule a pre -development meeting or attend the
Site Review Meeting when their project is discussed. Committee members agreed that it
would be helpful to have an informational letter prepared to send out and give to developers
and contractors who are submitting plans for review. Diana will prepare a checklist for plans
to be presented to the Site Review Committee.
3. Daley Field Utilities. As a follow up to the discussion at the last Site Review Meeting
regarding the City installing the utilities on Daley Field, Committee members agreed it was
important to have written confirmation of Rosauer's position on the utilities. Larry will speak
with Jerry Hagood. Larry was reminded to tell Mr. Hagood that if Rosauer's decides to install
the utilities, they must pay Davis Bacon wages.

4. Haven Field Subdivision. Narda has had a pre -application meeting with a
representative for Mr. Dasen, the developer of Haven Field, regarding subdividing the Haven
Field property. Issues to be addressed in the subdivision include water and sewer,, storm
drainage, approach permit from MDOT, cross easement agreements for access for Lot 2
which doesn't have direct access, parking, location of fire hydrants, sidewalks, traffic, etc.
Payment -in -lieu of tax information must be included in deeds resulting from the subdivision.
A discussion was also held regarding the Development Agreement between the City and
Mr. Dasen regarding subdividing and transfer of ownership.
S. Cardinal True Value - W. Center Street. As a follow-up to the discussion held last
week regarding Cardinal True Value, committee members felt it was important to let
Mr. Hansen, the owner of Cardinal True Value, know that he has the option of an
administrative appeal on the Building Department's interpretation of the Building Code. Craig
will provide Clarence with a copy of the Board of Appeals procedure. Clarence will include
this information in his response to Mr. Haarr's inquiry on behalf of Mr. Hansen.
