Lakeville council approves plat, conditional parking waiver for Domino’s distribution center
Summary
The Lakeville City Council unanimously approved a preliminary plat and a conditional use permit allowing temporary excess parking for Interstate South Logistics Park Fourth Edition, clearing the way for a 75,000‑square‑foot Domino’s distribution facility expected to create roughly 45 jobs.
Lakeville City Council on May 18 approved a preliminary plat and a conditional use permit for the Interstate South Logistics Park Fourth Edition, a project that includes a 75,000‑square‑foot built‑to‑suit distribution facility for Domino’s.
Jake Kurth of Canal Properties told the council the site will be divided into two lots on 37.9 acres just south of 215th Street near the Amazon facility. Kurth said the Lot 2 building will include dock doors on the east side, parking along the south, trailer parking to the east and two access points to 217th Street. He said the facility will operate 24 hours and the company expects the location to serve distribution across the state.
Development Director Tina Goodroad reviewed staff recommendations and the site plan, noting proposed screening for trailer parking, additional landscaping near the pond, and that the planning commission unanimously recommended approval after a May 7 public hearing with no public comments.
Councilmember Walter moved a resolution to approve the preliminary plat and to grant a conditional use permit to exceed 125% of the minimum parking requirement for Lot 2 while the initial building is in place. The motion passed on a roll‑call vote recorded as “Aye” by Walter, Lee, Paul, Heilier and Burmel.
Kurth estimated roughly 45 jobs would be created at the facility; council members asked operational questions about hours and distribution strategy and were told the site is intended as a statewide distribution node. Goodroad said the applicant plans a future 25,000‑square‑foot addition, and that the CUP allowing excess parking is temporary because the full site program will bring parking back under the city’s threshold once the addition is built.
The council adopted findings of fact required by the approval. No public comments were recorded during the planning commission hearing.
The project will proceed to subsequent plan and permitting steps before building permits are issued.
