PERFORMANCE BOND REMINDERS: C of O for Cedar Commons and Sleep City has been
signed off by Public Works. Montana Club's payment to Public Works came in the mail shortly after
the meeting. Their bond will be released.
OLD BUSINESS: Immanuel Lutheran Home/Buffalo Hill Terrace — All zoning issues have
been resolved. They submitted for an Administrative Adjustment on setback issues, and the
encroachment was partially taken care of by reducing the eaves. The only outstanding issue has to do
with the Fire Department and whether or not they were going to require the 20 foot fire lane up front
or not and also extending and doing some work with the sprinkler system or giving it a separate street
address. If they do the street address, we'll pass this onto Fred Zavodny. They still need the parking
easement. The dimensions given for the loop around the building are really for a one-way travel lane,
and they have widened it a bit from 17' to 20'- 23', but they want to keep it as a two-way road. This
is a low impact area, they plow it, and it is where the residents park. Public Works is okay with this.
Burnham is working with Jeff Walla on curb and gutter on Crestline. The fire issues are the main
issue. Public Works has one curb issue. This is passed through Site Review pending Fire and Parks
sign -offs.
KRMC — 310 Sunnyview Lane; first phase of hospital expansion (internal structural work only). The
massive expansion will be coming in for review. They are doing site preparation work and want the
permit to begin the interior footings for the inside addition. Conrad sent them an e-mail regarding
when they come in with their Building Plan in January for Phase 1, they will need to come in with
their Pedestrian Plan as well. He suggested they contact both Public Works and Parks to work with
them on the Pedestrian Plan. Conrad will forward a copy of that e-mail to Burnham. This portion of
the project is approved.
NEW BUSINESS: None.
PLANNING OFFICE ITEMS: Taking a draft copy of our Subdivision Regulations and the
updates to the Planning Board for discussion.
We may be getting in an Administrative Conditional Use permit for some mini storage on West
Center Street, north of True Value. Michael Blend is looking at turning this into a mini storage and
some outside storage for R. V.'s and boats. He will have screening and security fencing, and will do
improvements to West Center Street on the north side, including curb and gutter. All parking will be
paved. He will need to define the access points of entry into the property, and get an engineered
Storm Water Plan. If it is more than 12,000 sq. ft., it will need to be sprinklered. Elkins mentioned
potential structural problems in this former Consolidated Freightways building. Coming in the next
couple of weeks. They will be putting in one or two bathrooms so there may be some sewer impact
fees.
OTHER REPORTS: Spring Prairie Phase III meeting is scheduled for today at 1:30 p.m. in the
lower conference room.
The meeting was adjourned at 10:20 a.m.
