OLD BUSINESS: School District 5 Central Kitchen — 205 Northwest Lane. This is a 5,400 sq.
ft. single -story, kitchen -only building. The food will be delivered out to the various schools. There
are two parcels there, and the building appears to be straddling the two. The two parcels together
would be approximately 210' x 430'. Freyholtz stated that MDT has control on the approaches on
Three Mile Drive. There are two approaches, one of which is gated for emergency access. They will
be coming in on the eastern end approach coming off Three Mile, and then go on Northwest Lane and
make an immediate left. If they use the existing approach that is presently gated off, they will need an
approach permit from MDT. Jentz noted that their design shows a parking lot going back onto
Northwest Lane to the east. The turn in is approximately 150' north of Three Mile. Rademacher is
concerned about traffic with drivers dropping off children and traffic regarding this facility. Jentz
noted that they will only have five to six employees working at this facility. He will look into how
often the meals will be delivered. They are working on drainage issues presently.
NEW BUSINESS: None.
