The use would not be hazardous, detrimental or disturbing to present and potential surrounding land uses, due to the noises, glare, smoke, dust, odor, fumes, water .pollution, water run-off, vibration, general unsightliness, electrical interference or other nuisances because the use would be _ subject to performance standards to avoid possible air, water, soil and noise pollution. These standards were de- veloped with the assistance of officials from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency and Health Department. 6.

The use would not create excessive additional requirements at public cost for public facilities and services; and would not be detrimental to the welfare of the City. 9. The use would preserve and incorporate the site's natural and scenic features into the development design. 10. The use would cause minimal adverse environmental effects. - (Refer to findings one and five.) Approval is subject to the following conditions: 1.
