Commissioner Norton asked to verify there is enough space on the west side of
the house to allow the required vehicle access to the proposed garage.
Mr. Russ Rasco, of66 North High Dr. NE addressed the Commission. Mr. Rasco
expressed concernwith the size of proposed structure. Mr. Rasco stated there are
no houses on that street with 1500 sq. ft.living space, let alone a garage of this
size. Mr. Rasco noted concern foractivity at the site and runoff from this
building. Mr. Rasco stated this area already has drainage problems and believes
the City has not done anything to alleviate this. Mr. Rasco noted this property
and the adjacent one are the low spots in thisarea and have historically held
drainage and this will be problematic if more runoff water is created. Would also
like to make sure late night activity is kept to a minimum.
Mr. Kent Exner, City Engineer,addressed the Commission. Mr. Exner noted this
area was annexed over a period of time,North High Dr. is a County road, and this
is a portion of town that was never formally developed to meetany City
developmentstandards. The same amount of rain will hit the roof as has hit the
ground and Mr. Exner does not believe this will compound existing drainage
problems.
Mr. Rasco stated drainage is a large enough issue that oneneighbor in this area
brings in a pump to move runoff water to a drain pond area that used to be part of
the formerBurns Manor site.
Mr. Exner noted the pond is a private pond on privately owned property. From a
City standpoint it is a private matter.
Mr. Rasco asked if this proposed project would be completed in a timely manner.
Mr. Lucas Runkeof 55North High Dr. Addressed the Commission. Mr. Runke
stated the project will be finished. Mr. Runke stated the proposedlocation was
chosen because it is the high spot of the property and he and his fellow applicant
considered their neighbors when locating the proposed garage on the site to
minimize impact to the neighbors.
Commissioner Fahey asked if Mr. Runke would build a larger building if he
could.
Mr. Runkehe absolutelywould build larger if he could.
Commissioner Fahey expressed concern about the applicant’s ability to clear the
southwest corner of thehouse on this property with a full-size truck and trailer,
using the existing driveway access.
Mr. Runke noted as North High Dr. is a county road there is not a curb in place
making the access alittle more forgiving. Mr. Runke stated the drainage
problems in the area are not as severe as Mr. Rasco implies.

Commissioner Fahey asked Mr. Exner if the applicant would be able to move or
expand the curb cut during possiblefuture development of the roadto a more
suitable location.
Mr. Exner stated the City standard is to have a maximum of 24’ driveway width at
the right of way. The City has deviated from this in the past. In the future, if the
City were re-constructing the street Staff would be willing to work with
homeowners to provide adequate access to properties.
Mr. Matthew Runke of 55 North High Dr. NE addressed the Commission. Mr.
Runke noted the tree cover on the west side is thick and some could beremoved
to allow more accessif necessary. Mr. Runke also stated that he hasn’t seen the
flooding problemas severe in this area that Mr.Rasco described.
Motion by Commissioner Johnston, second by Commissioner Norton to closethe
publichearing at 5:54pm.
Motion by Commissioner Fahey, second by Commissioner Kirchoff toapprove
the application with 6 Staff recommendations. The motion was unanimously

B.CONSIDERATION OF CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT TO ALLOW A
STORAGE USE LOCATED AT 125 ERIE STREET SE IN AN I/C ZONING
DISTRICT, SUBMITTED BY WILDFLOWER PROPERTIES, LLC,
APPLICANT.
Mr. Dan Jochum, City Planner, addressed the Commission. Mr. Jochumnoted he
has been working with Mr. McDonald on the correct addressing of the property.
The most correct address is 115 Erie St. and the Resolutions and other documents
will be modified to bear this address. The discrepancy in the address of this
property is partly due to tax combination of older lots in town.
Mr. Jochum stated the proposed use will be a small office and storage space for a
business using courier vans/busses. All uses in I/C district require a C.U.P.
Mr. Jochum noted the building currently does not have water/sewer services to
the building.Mr. Jochum also noted the front yard space of this site will need to
be pavedas part of change of use.
Mr. Jochum stated staff recommends approval with the 8 staff recommendations
indicated in the Commission packet.
Chair Hantge asked if outdoor storage is intendedto be used at this site. Mr.
Jochum noted the applicant should be asked for clarification.

Commissioner Fahey asked to verify what the SAC/WAC fees would be for this
type of land use.
Mr. Jochum stated 1 unit / 7,000 sq. ft.and the proposed use is below that
threshold, so the applicant would be charged for 1 unit and then also paysfor
permitting and contractor costs.
Ian McDonald addressed the Commission 20685 Belle Lake Rd Hutchinson. Mr.
McDonald stated that the tenant has leased the building beginningthe end of
October. Mr. McDonald also stated it may be possible in the future to need
outdoor storage or possibly an addition which would need to go through the
appropriate permitting process.
Mr. Jochum noted outdoor storage would need to be screened by a fence and
further stated it may be prudent to add a condition to the Resolution stating
applicant may work with staff for the fence screening without having to again
apply for a C.U.P. for outdoor storage.
Mr. McDonaldstated he intends to have a clean property that isappealing to the
neighbors.
Mr. Jochum noted the applicant has been very accommodating in meting
requirements of the process.

Regulations:City Code of Ordinances Sections154.169
Transportation:The property will be accessed from both Lynn Road SW and South Grade Road SW.
Physical Characteristics:Currently developed commercial property.
Site PlanReview:
The City Council deems it is necessary and appropriate to require site plan approval of developments in certain
zoning districts to preserve and promote attractive, well-planned, stable urban conditions. The following is an
overview of site plan considerations.
Building:
The building is proposed to be 3,500square foot, one-story flat roof structurethat will be used as a dental
office. The building will be one-story in heightwith a parapet wall extending above the flat roof to screen all
rooftop equipment. Refer to attached building elevations for the draft building elevation.The proposed
building would meet all applicable setbacks as noted below, as well as all otherZoning Ordinance requirements.
Parking/Access/Circulation
32parking spaces are shown on the site plan. The zoning ordinance requires 5.5 spaces per 1,000 square feet of
building which equates to 20spaces being required. The single parking space along the east side of the building
doesn’t meet the required 10 foot setback from the parking space to the right of way. Because of this issue this
parking stall should be eliminated. Overall the parking plan looks acceptable.
There will be two access points for this project, one being off South Grade Road and the other off Lynn Road
SW. Both access points are 24 feet wide and appear adequate. Ingress and egress tothe site appears very
adequate.
Site Plan Review
964 Hwy 15 S, Aspen Dental
Planning Commission –1-20-15
Page 3
Circulation onthe site appears to be generally acceptable.There is a trash enclosure area on the northwest
corner of the site and there appears to be enough space for garbage trucks to access this area.
Landscaping and Lighting:
The Zoning Ordinance requires tree planting at a rate of 1 tree per 800 sq. ft. of landscaped area.There is
currently 8,519square feet of landscaped area on the site. This equates to 11trees required.The Landscape
Plan indicates there will be 10 deciduous trees and 1 ornamental tree on the site. Staff will make sure the tree
species are acceptable at the time of building permit application. The City Arborists will review the final
landscape plans and ensure proper soil amendments are completed.
Per the Zoning Ordinance, lighting installed must be indirect and shall not produce glare on adjacent properties
or public right of ways.
Stormwater Management:
Following the final construction plan submittal and City review the City Environmental Specialist will provide
comments that need to be addressed prior to building permits being issued.
Signage:
At this point staff has not been provided any signage plans to review. Signage will need to be installed in
accordance to the Sign/Zoning Ordinance.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval of the site plan reviewsubject to the following conditions.
1.The proposed building and site improvements shall comply with the standards of the C-4 district and the
Zoning Ordinance, as well as all other City regulations.
2.There must be emergency service access around the building. Fire hydrants must be located no farther
than 400 feet from the building.
3.Exterior refuse collection area must be fully screened.
4.Moving or relocating utility services will be at the property owner’s expense.
5.SAC/WAC charges will be due at the time building permits are issued.
6.A parkland contribution fee will be collected with the building permit.
7.The City of Hutchinson must approve a traffic control plan prior to any construction activity impacting
South Grade Road and/or Lynn Road.
8.The City of Hutchinson must be notified 7 days prior to any roadway or utility work that is going to be
done within the City right of way. All roadway work must be fully completed to City standards within
10 calendar days of the original disturbance. If the work isn’t fully completed within 10 calendar days,
the City reserves the right to have the work completed and invoice/assess the property owner for all
associated costs.
