APPROVAL OF MINUTES-Moved by Blazanin,second by Hoifeldt to approve the minutes of
6/24/97 with the corrections being noted.Motion carried 5 to o.(corrections made).
FAREWAY SITE PLAN-Gary Reed,of Kirkham,Michael,representing Fareway,stated that
the proposed Fareway Store is located on the east side ofthe commercial development of the
Windfield II development.There will be 228 parking spaces,an onsite detention area in the back
that will eventually drain into the Windfield storm sewer system.It is a 22,000 sq ft facility.
There would be a strip mall attached to the store but there would not be an access to the store
from the mall.There will be a burm built on Laurel (until the area is developed)to stop the flow
onto the undeveloped area.Detention service to the NW parking lot will be put in later when that
part of the mall develops.
Discussion took place regarding the east side of the property.The mobile home has a 30ft
buffer,they are requesting to only place a lOft on their side.This would give approximately 40ft
of buffer between the mobile home court.Between a commercial and residential district the
commercial needs to have a 25ft buffer.They asked that the zoning ordinance be amended.
The parking lights would be a shoe box design and shine down.After the store closes the lights
would not be on.The store hours are 8:00am to 9:00pm.Heskett moved to recommend to the
Council to amend the zoning ordinance section 301.27 A2,by adding ,or 10ft adjourning R
districts with an existing 30ft buffer.Korpanty second.Motion carried 5-0.The Commission
