Item 5.4 & 5.5 • Item # 5.4. & 5.5. lEik .>11... ..,01.4.........,o �-� River MEMORANDUM TO: Planning Commission FROM: Michele McPherson,Director of Planning DATE: May 28, 2002 SUBJECT: Case No. ZC 02-06 and CU 02-16 Request by Rick Austin for Indoor Go-Kart Facility Request The applicant requests that the Planning Commission consider the following applications: III1. A rezoning from R4, Multiple Family Residential to C3, Highway Commercial. 2. A conditional use permit for a commercial recreation facility(indoor Go-Kart race track) Attachments • Location Map • Applicant's Narrative • City's Curfew Requirements • Site Plan • Floor Plan • Partial Landscape Plan Location 321 Baldwin Avenue Zoning/Land Use R4, Multiple Family Residential / HB, Highway Business II Memo to Planning Commission/ZC 02-06 and CU 02-16 May 28,2002 Page 2 • Analysis Overview Located on the property is the vacant Ron's Foods facility that is 24,000 square feet in area. The parking lot is paved and provides 114 spaces. No changes are being proposed to the exterior of the building; all improvements will be on the interior. Rezoning Request It appears that there is a discrepancy between the land use designation and the zoning designation of the site. The land use designation is clearly Highway Business with the zoning indicating multiple family. Ron's Foods,a retail facility,has occupied the site for a number of years, including prior to the most recent update to the City's Comprehensive Plan. It appears that the zoning designation of R4 Multiple Family is in fact a map error and approval of this rezoning request would make the zoning and land use designations consistent with each other. Conditional Use Permit The applicant proposes to convert the existing interior of the building into a motorized Go- Kart facility. Proposed is a Go-Kart track, pit area, bathrooms, meeting room, and III ticket/concession area. Packaged foods such as pop and chips will be sold at the concession area. Video games are also proposed along one wall of the facility. The applicant anticipates the following hours of operation: Monday-Thursday: 11:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. Friday: 11:00 a.m. to 12 midnight Saturday: 9:00 a.m. to 12 midnight Sunday: 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. The applicant should be required to enforce the City's curfew requirements as the age of the clientele will be those 16 years and older. The zoning code does not identify the specific number of spaces required for this proposed use. General recreation parking standards require one space four each four patrons when full. During the staff review,there were no adverse comments other than a concern in regards to adequate ventilation in order to remove the exhaust of the Go-Kart motors. The applicant will be required to comply all building code requirements in this regard. Recommendation Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend approval of the rezoning with III the following findings: S:\PLANNING\Case Files\CU 02-16 Austin\5-28 pc.doc Memo to Planning Commission/ZC 02-06 and CU 02-16 May 28,2002 Page 3 • 1. APPROVAL OF THE ZONING REQUEST WILL NOT HAVE ADVERSE IMPACTS ON ADJACENT USES. 2. THE ZONING REQUEST IS CONSISTENT WITH THE LAND USE DESIGNATION OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend approval of the conditional use permit request with the following conditions: 1. THE GO-KART OPERATION SHALL COMPLY WITH ALL OF THE BUILDING CODE REQUIREMENTS. 2. THE APPLICANT SHALL POST AND ENFORCE THE CITY OF ELK RIVER'S CURFEW REQUIREMENTS. • • S:\PLANNING\Case Files\CU 02-16 Austin\5-28 pc.doc LINCOLNr 1 >< Y ELEMEI TRY o 2 1 3 ' SCHOOL W ,--- \ 9 li ELK W T r y \ z 1 15 15 ifil01_B 2 1 -g\ 8 Q ill 1 14121W 5 8 • • a 5 Z a Iniillqw ir ';,3‘, ", ;6 �,4BID-v:0 MO ^ �� 6. �� 7 iiii0WO � 1 ii MI OE V -93 1 Vis 1 = , ,a al :: 40 '4 0 * dA 40 ;, ,i, 4 , ;,... ...,,c, 7:. 1 -a .41 k‘M k 201T*4611 1 . u.-IA o fp `' 4 i 1 5 IM ]11 m e � '.-Q2 41 ' STHI �8T. 6 �.� 2 Q-�P�tilill‘Thiliga I . 5 H ill : .J5.

The racetrack will accommodate approximately 12 karts at a time. It will be approximately 1200 ft long and 20 ft wide allowing for lots of room for passing along with varied corners and straight-aways. It will also feature a pit lane for entering and exiting the racetrack. This type of facility is meant for fun, family entertainment for all ages. The driving experience itself, for the most part, will attract ages 16 and up for just a fun racing experience. Or for the serious driver, leagues will be formed to accommodate their competitive needs. We will also • feature a set of kiddie karts to accommodate the younger kids and will schedule special times just for their races. The concession stand and video arcade are also available for those of all ages who come with the drivers to watch. We will also have a meeting room for corporate meetings and/or birthday parties etc. Our business hours will be: 11 a-l1 p M-Th 1la-12a Fri 8a-12a Sat 8a-llp Sun We will staff approximately 8-10 employees at any one time (1 mgr, 2 pos/concession workers, 1 pit marshall, 2 corner workers, 1 mechanic, 1 to 3 salespeople). Our goal is to create a clean, fun, family atmosphere for all ages!
