Report from Isac Dymesich from KV Tech: Dymesich shared some of the challenges with the committee that were experienced during the process of establishing KV Tech at the Business Park. Challenges listed include: the drawn-out process for obtaining a conditional use permit; rezoning the parcel; getting 3- Phase power to the parcel, which required obtaining easements from multiple property owners; and confusion on where to get assorted information pertaining to the property. Dymesich reported that he has signed a contract with Xcel to get 3-Phase power to the parcel and has contracted with Norvado to get phone and internet to the parcel at no cost. Abeles- Allison asked Dymesich to review his plans for getting sewer to the area. Dymesich explained that he has a permit to install a holding tank that will be used until he has time for a more permanent solution. Dymesich reviewed obstacles he ran into regarding placing a retention pond on the property that had to be put in and grating that took place due to large amounts of water run off onto the property. Discussion took place regarding the water run off issue that KV Tech has experienced. Abeles-Allison asked Dymesich what KV Tech’s plans were for the summer. Dymesich reported that the foundation had been laid at the work site, framing will begin the upcoming Friday with the framing to be completed by the end of the summer. Dymesich informed the committee that he expected to be open for business by April 2022. BeBeau questioned if the committee should consider rezoning the rest of the parcels located at the business park. Abeles-Allison explained that rezoning would prove difficult as there is no telling what type of business may look to move into the park. Abeles-Allison reviewed the zoning of each of the parcels and some of the restrictions for each zoning district. Abeles-Allison suggested Bayfield County helping future businesses through the rezone process. BeBeau suggested making customers ware of the zoning parcel, along with the zoning restrictions and allowances in the future. Abeles-Allison posed the question of installing utilities throughout the remainder of the business park and stated that Bayfield County has applied for a water feasibility study that will be used to determine the water and sewer eligibility throughout the park. 6. Update on KV Tech, 3 phase power, easements, construction *If Isac cannot attend: Chairman Rabska omitted this item due to Isac’s ability to attend the meeting. 7. Discussion and Possible Action regarding Sign Project: Rabska reported that he had been working with Jason Ronning on a quote for the sign project and reviewed the proof received by Ronning that includes a large header and 1 foot by 10 feet panels underneath that would be used to display the names of the businesses at the park. Rabska informed the committee that the sign would cost approximately $3,200. An additional option would be to increase the panels to 2 feet by 10 feet for an estimated cost of $4,200. Ronning had recommend placing wood between that business panels during install to prevent bending and bowing of the signs. Abeles-Allison questioned if the painting and K:\Ag Station Business Park Planning Committee\Minutes\2021 Minutes\3 JUNE 09, 2021 MINUTES Bussines Park.doc laminating would be done on one side or both. Rabska explained that the wording would be visible from both sides. Rabska reviewed what costs would include for the sign. Discussion took place regarding the sign options that were given by running. The committee agreed upon the first option that included that 1 foot by 10 feet panels. Abeles-Allison stated the project would be recommended to the Executive Committee. Motion by BeBeau, seconded by Milanowski to recommend to the Executive Committee the proposed header and 1 foot by 10 feet header signs underneath at an approximate cost of $3,200 and require businesses to pay for their own panel. Motion Carried. 8. Discussion of potential temporary lease of 30 acres: Rabska informed the committee that he had been contacted by Minnesota Limited about wanting to lease a possible 30 acres for 1 year. The business intends to lay down gravel, build a fence around the site, and leave everything behind when they are done. Abeles- Allison reported that Minnesota Limited had submitted a bid for a project and are unsure if the project was accepted, leaving the business unable to proceed until a notice to proceed has been received. The committee reviewed the location where the company may be placed and discussed potential options regarding contracting with Minnesota Limited on what is to be done with the gravel when their work is complete. BeBeau suggested utilizing any left behind gravel as a base to expand upon the existing road adjacent to the property. The committee appeared in favor of this idea. 9. Marketing Discussion Plans for 2021: Rabska informed the committee that he intends to communicate with Dymesich to establish a schedule for holding an open house at the KV Tech site.
