Members of the Council requested that the PUD amendment include a condition that the flower mart be approved on a one-year trail basis and that other conditions such as site layout, signage, and hours of operation also be included as operating conditions.

SOLBERG MINERAL EXTRACTION PERMIT Community Development Director Rogness presented a request from Solberg Aggregate to renew their mineral extraction pernut for property owned by Koch Refining Co. The property is located on the former Solberg site west of STH 52 which was sold to Koch and leased back to Solberg for continued mineral extraction operations on a year to year basis. Rogness explained how the revised grading plan would taper downward resulting in a two percent slope and extending the operations approximately three to four years. Lauren Howard of Solberg Aggregate addressed questions from the Council with regards to the history of the Solberg operation and reclamation plans. He also advised that if the grading modification was not approved, there was enough mineral extraction for this year's construction season,but that the company would need additional time for reclamation. It was noted that the City Council will be discussing mining issues at a future work session, and it was the consensus of the Council to only approve the extraction permit renewal and not the grading plan modification. 2 ROSEMOUNT CITY PROCCEDINGS REGULAR MEETING MOTION by Busho to approve the mineral extraction ermit renewal forMSo ber� A 19 e9 ate for 1999 without modification to the grading plan.
