7.1. SR 01-04-1993 '(1 ITEM 7.1. TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: JANELLE SCHMITZ, ZONING DECEMBER 29, 1992 ASSIST~......'~ . CY ... DATE: SUBJECT: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT REQUEST BY LARRY LEITSCHUH/PUBLIC HEARING, CASE NUMBER CU 92-026 REQUESTED ACTION: The applicant, Larry Leitschuh, 9110-83rd Avenue N, Brooklyn Park, MN, is requesting a conditional use permit to operate a health facility (aerobic studio) in the Elk River Mall. The proposed owner of the facility is Janelle Swanson of Monticello. SITE ZONING/LAND USE: PUD, Planned Unit Development/HB, Highway Business SURROUNDING ZONING/LAND USE: . The property surrounding the Elk River Mall is zoned PUD, planned unit developm~nt, in all directions. The underlying land use is HB, Highway Business, to the north, east, and south, however, to the west it is MR, Medium Density Residential. CITY SERVICES: This site is served by City sewer and water. LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Lot 4, Block 2, Elk River Plaza. The attached map shows the general location of the Elk River Mall. BACKGROUND: . Janelle Swanson is interested in locating a health facility in the Elk River Mall at 692 Freeport Avenue. The facility would primarily be used for aerobic exercise classes which would accommodate 10-30 students at a time. The proposed site of the health facility was previously occupied by a Hallmark store as well as the Carpet Tunnel store. According to the Elk River Plaza PUD agreement, commercial recreational uses such as this are considered a conditional use, therefore, a conditional use permit is required. 720 Dodge Avenue N.W., Elk River, Minnesota 55330 (612) 441-7420 . . . The proposed site for the health facility is approximately 3,500 square feet. The applicant has indicated the health facility would primarily be used for aerobic classes. The plans supplied by the applicant do not show saunas, showers, whirlpools, etc., however, there are separate mens and womens changing rooms and lavatory facilities. A copy of the proposed site plan is attached for your review. The site plan shows a new sound wall will be placed along the perimeter of the site. This will help to alleviate staff's concerns regarding the effect of such a use on neighboring tenants in the mall. The proposed hours of operation are 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Staff feels this is appropriate for this type of use as well as its location. Because the facility is located within a shopping center, the parking requirement is computed for the entire mall, therefore, parking does not need to be addressed with this request. Staff feels this request meets the seven standards for a conditional use permit as outlined in Section 900.42. Further, the use will not be detrimental to adjacent and surrounding tenants within the mall and the use is compatible with the shopping center uses. RECOMMENDATION: Staff is recommending approval of the conditional use permit request to operate a health facility (aerobic studio) in the Elk River Mall. At the December 22, 1992, meeting the Elk River Planning Commission reviewed this request and also recommended approval subject to the following stipulation: 1) THE SPACE BE SOUND PROOFED /' .
