Approval <br />of the April 19, 2005 minutes was tabled until the June 21, 2005 meeting. <br /> <br />? <br /> Council Action: <br /> City Council Member, Mary Burg reported that the Council <br />approved the Applewood Pointe Apartments, the New Brighton Office Building, <br />Lake Jones Apartments and Brighton Village projects. <br /> <br /> <br />Public Hearing: <br />SP05-11 & LP05-07 Modify an Approved Special Use Permit <br />(SP0401 -& LP03-08) <br /> <br />Consideration of an amendment to the approved site plan and special use permit for the <br />new Beisswenger’s Do It Best hardware store. The proposed change is for an expansion <br />in size of the outdoor “garden sales area” on the west side of the building. Since the <br />Council approved the special use permit in 2004, Mr. Beisswenger has a slight change in <br />business plans and now wishes to include used power equipment/gasoline engines for <br />sale in the garden sales area. The pond has changed shape and the number of “proof of <br />parking” spaces has increased. However, the remaining components of the site plan are <br />not proposed to be changed. <br /> <br />Mr. Norm Wells, Architect, approached the commission to answer questions regarding <br />recycling and the garden center. He also expressed his frustration with the problems with <br />getting the pond approved by the county. It delayed the start of construction and due to <br /> <br />increase building costs forced a change in the plans for the store. <br /> <br />CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. <br />Motion by Baker, Second by Schiferl to <br /> <br />MOTION CARRIED. <br />4 Ayes, 0 Nays, <br /> <br />WAIVE THE READING AND ADOPT <br />Motion by O’Keefe, Second by Schiferl to <br />THE ATTACHED RESOLUTION APPROVING SP05-11 and LP 05-07 <br />subject to <br />the following condition: <br />1 <br />I:\COMMISSIONS\PLANNING\Minutes\2005\5-17-05.doc <br /> <br />
