SUMMARY
The Adventure Zone is a paintball game area located on the north side of TH 55 across from Safety-Kleen
(Laidlaw/LTSPCI). Mr. Nordberg is requesting renewal of the Interim Use Permit (IUP). The Rosemount
Police records indicate that no complaints have been made regarding the paintball games.
Previously, the IUP had been reviewed on a two-year sequence, after issues with the previous owner had been
resolved. Endrus processing now owns the property and leases a portion of the undeveloped portion of the site
to the Adventure Zone. The Endrus facility utilizes about 1/4 of the 54 acre site.
The proposed conditions of the ICTP are based upon the original conditions developed in 1994 for The
Adventure Zone, and Splatball, Inc. The City Council may consider expanding the life span of the renewed
NP to three or even five years. As with other such permits, steps can be taken to revoke the IUP at any time
there is unlawful activity such as a violation of the conditions or the zoning ordinance.
PLANNING COMMISSION PUBLIC HEARING
No one attended the public hearing other than the applicant. The Commissioners were concerned about the ILTP
and its relationship with the 1��INRRA corridor and planning effort. Staff indicated that the ILTP does not
anticipate vegetative clearing or site grading beyond the existing parking lot improvements. Furthermore, the
anticipated regional trail has a Pine Bend alignment, which is below the Adventure Zone site. The Planning
Commissioners also concluded that extending the IUP renewal interval to three years was acceptable.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Motion to renew the I[TP for the Adventure Zone for a period of three years.
