interested in a peace pole she would bring forward the information and donate the item
to the City. She believed that each person in the City can do a little something visual.
Mitchell suggested that staff research the item and speak with Ms. Smith to determine if
this would be considered by the planning or park department.
Ms. Smith stated that she was a member of the Council for 12 years and is aware that
there is a lot of discussion about the public safety budget during the budget discussions.
She requested that the Council ensure that the Police Department has sufficient funding
for any type of training they may need. She stated that this is not a time of normal police
budgets and asked that the Council not let the department go unprepared.
Mitchell thanked Ms. Smith for her input.
Fred Webber, 100 Clydesdale Trail, thanked Belland, his department and all the public
servants in Medina. He stated that the residents have come to count on them for all of
the wonderful things that they do.
Mitchell acknowledged that this is a small town and noted that many members of the
community have called the Police Department in recent days to voice their support and
appreciation.
Belland confirmed that the department has received many calls of support. He stated
that Medina is a special City with a special sense of community. He stated that the
officers go out every day to protect and serve the residents of Medina. He stated that
since he has been with the City there has been a great deal of support and training
provided to the officers and the departments. He provided examples of different training
mechanisms that the department uses and has been teaching to the officers. He
thanked the community for their support.
B. Park Commission
Scherer reported that the Park Commission will meet the following night to consider
possibly returning the Maple Park baseball field to a field again as there have been
requests from neighbors that will be presented to the Commission. He stated that the
Commission will also discuss park dedication for the AutoMotorPlex request and noted
that Finke will be present to discuss the park and trail portion of the Comprehensive
Plan. He stated that the Commission will also consider dugout covers at Hamel Legion
and receive an update on the Arrowhead Drive Trail project.
C. Planning Commission
Planning Commissioner Murrin stated that the Commission met the previous week to
consider the Concept Plan from the AutoMotorPlex and noted that the Commission
unanimously supports the applicant bringing forward an application. She noted that the
Commission encouraged the potential applicant to meet all the suggestions noted in the
staff report. She stated that the Commission also considered an ordinance amendment
related to temporary healthcare dwellings noting that the Commission unanimously
recommended to opt -out. She stated that the Commission determined that would place
a lot of additional work onto staff and the Commission was not sure that options outlined
by the Governor would be the best way to care for a sick family member or regulate that
type of housing.

within the engineer's estimate for the project. He noted that no action would be
requested tonight.
B. AutoMotorPlex — PUD Concept Plan Review — East of Arrowhead Drive,
North of Hamel Road (7:32 p.m.)
Johnson noted that because this is a Concept Plan no formal action would be needed
and the applicant is simply requesting input from the Council. He stated that this request
would include nine buildings with a total of 215,000 square feet. He noted that there is a
similar facility located in Chanhassen owned by the applicant.
Finke stated the applicant is considering a PUD to allow flexibility in construction. He
noted that staff has provided details for consideration within the staff report. He noted
that the applicant is proposing materials more commonly found in residential zoning. He
stated that this is a unique property and believed the narrative supplied by the applicant
provides some insight, as would a visit to the Chanhassen site. He stated that at this
point in the draft Comprehensive Plan process the land is not proposed to change in
land use designation. He identified the proposed property and noted that staff made
comments regarding an upland parcel that would be landlocked with the proposed
subdivision of the overall property. He displayed the proposed layout of the property
included in the Concept Plan along with some photographs from the developer's existing
Chanhassen site. He provided a comparison of what is being requested by the applicant
compared to what is typically allowed in the business park zoning district. He stated that
the applicant is seeking flexibility on setbacks, noting that perhaps additional buffering
could be done to minimize the potential impact. He stated that the applicant is proposing
lap siding (LP smart board siding) similar to what you would see on a residential building
rather than the typical brick and concrete building you would find in a business park
district. He stated that the building material is typically only allowed as a secondary
minor material in the business park zoning district but noted that the Planning
Commission was supportive of the material in this situation. He noted that staff would
still recommend at least 20 percent of the materials be composed of a material such as
glass or brick. He stated that this use would require a lot of garage doors and noted that
the zoning district typically limits loading docks to 20 percent. He stated that staff would
want to review the different parking needs to determine an efficient site layout to ensure
parking is provided for events. He noted that the Chanhassen site holds events on a
monthly basis and smaller events on weekends and staff would want to ensure there is
not pressure put on public right-of-way. He noted that there were letters from
Chanhassen stating that there are no issues at that site with events and noted that the
applicant is working with Loram to secure a shared parking agreement. He reported that
the Planning Commission was supportive of the request.
Bruno Silikowski, Plymouth resident, stated that the applicant created a large amount of
property tax base. He stated that there is a similar sized site in Chanhassen that he
opened on January 1, 2008. He explained that, although the Medina site will be roughly
the same size, the selling price of the Medina land is higher by about 30 percent and
noted that the valuation of the Chanhassen site today is about $40,000,000. He stated
that he worked with staff to determine a comparable price for the land should it be
developed under a typical commercial use of this size and it was determined about
$4,000,000 to $7,000,000 while he estimates that this site will be valued significantly
higher than his Chanhassen site. He stated that this site will be quiet enjoyment and the
people that frequent his site like to spend money in the community.

Pederson stated that he attended the Planning Commission meeting and noted that he
also visited the Chanhassen site and was very impressed. He noted that his original
impression was that it would be muscle cars and it was not that at all as these are high
value vehicles. He stated that it is a very nice facility but did not see any hardships that
would allow the City to reduce the setbacks. He stated that it is a first class facility and
Silikowski was very helpful in showing him around.
Cousineau stated that she has not been to the site but has talked to people that have
been to the Saturday morning events in Chanhassen and spoke of them very highly.
She stated that she would be concerned with light and noise pollution because of the
rural setting.
Silikowski stated that typically on a weekday there are about six people on site and
perhaps 12 on weekends. He stated that some of the members are CEO's and the
intent of the site is quiet enjoyment. He noted that there is an open house for the public
on Saturday mornings from 7:30 AM to 11:30 AM. He encouraged the Council to reach
out to Chanhassen. He stated that Chanhassen encourages and participates in the
events.
Cousineau asked if there would be a mechanics or repair shop onsite.
Silikowski replied that a body shop, repair shop and detail shop is being built in
Chanhassen right now. He stated that all that activity is completed inside and noted that
this is high -end, with the low end of restoration being $500,000 and ranging up to
$2,000,000.
Anderson stated that he shares the concerns regarding setbacks. He believes that this
is an intriguing plan and encouraged the applicant to think about the comments
regarding the setbacks when coming forward with an application.
Mitchell stated that he is familiar with the Chanhassen site and noted that one issue of
Arrowhead would be having a wide enough road with a trail off the road to allow
pedestrian traffic. He stated that there is a horse barn on the corner and wanted to
ensure that there is a viable piece of property when the Loram property is further
subdivided.
Silikowski stated that this subdivision is per Loram's request.
Mitchell stated that he is welcoming of this request.
Pederson stated that there was a possible second emergency entrance discussed at the
Planning Commission.
Silikowski stated that at Chanhassen there is one way in and one way out with an
emergency access. He noted that the emergency access has never been used but
agreed that could be done on this site as well. He referenced the site map and stated
that the ten -foot variance in the setback is being requested in only the peaked areas,
noting that the road is not behind that area. He noted that the setback request is not for
the entire site but just those areas.
