Page 5 10. Parking Area Surface: >.,) The parking area surface would be bituminous with the' exception of the trailer storage area just west of the parking stalls. This storage area would be covered with Class Five crushed rock. A 5 by 100 foot concrete pad would also be constructed in the storage area for trailer parking. 11. Truck Bays: Five truck bays would be constructed; three on the east side and two on the west side of the proposed building. 12. Landscaping: The applicant is proposing five Black Hills spruce for the front of the building to serve as a screen against the truck terminal yard just north of the road easement. Coniferous and deciduous plants would be planted along the parking stalls adjacent to the building and two Black Hills spruce would be planted near the remaining parking areas. Sod is proposed for the landscaped area north of the building and grass seed is proposed for the remaining landscaped areas. 13. Screening: No screening is proposed for the rear yard storage area (the area to the west of the proposed building would be used to store truck trailers). A six foot opaque fence would need to be installed along the north and west edge of the storage area should the remaining western portion of the site be developed and the paved portion of the road easement be improved and extended further west. At this time, however, the storage area would be screened from public view simply by its location. 14.Concrete Curbing: Those parking areas adjacent to the public ROW would need to be supplied with poured-in-place continuous concrete curbing. Those areas would include the two driveways, three parking areas, and north edge of the storage area. 15. Impact on Surrounding Land Uses: The proposed use would be located in an industrial district where truck traffic and trailer storage is common. 16. Other Considerations: The City of Moundsview's City Administrator was contacted regarding the applicant's proposal. The City of Moundsview would have no objection to the proposed use. The future extension of Mustang Drive, however, would need to be financed by the Owner of the property requesting said improvements. Public Works 1. Streets: The applicant would need to pave the 30 foot road easement from where is presently ends on the Technetics site onto the subject site. It is conceivable as land area becomes more scarce and technology becomes more sophisticated, the extreme west portion of the subject site could be developed. At such time, the 30 foot road easement and Mustang Drive would be improved to serve the immediate area.
