MAILING TO: Dr. Joel Erickson John Sandberg Agenda Items 1 & 2.Public Hearing - Consideration of adding an animal clinic as a conditional use in a B-3 district. Public Hearing - Consideration of granting a condi- tional use permit. to Dr. Joel Erickson for a pet clinic in a B-3 district. At the last Planning Commission meeting, Dr. Joel Erickson discussed his intentions of opening a pet clinic in the Monticello Mall and requested the approval of the Planning Commission. The proposed location would have a separate out- side entrance and would not be connected with the inside Mall area. Also, sound proofing walls would be constructed to keep noise to a minimum. Dr. Erickson has indicated that none of the Mall tenants polled were opposed to this type of business being located at the Mal I. His intentions are to operate an outpatient type clinic performing basic services, with no overnight storage of animals. (Refer to summary prepared by Dr. Erickson sent, with last Planning Commission agenda). Since our current zoning ordinances do not. have pet clinics classified as either a permitted or conditional use in any zoning, district, it would have to be added as either a permitted or condi- tiona 1 use. In discussing this request, with Howard Dahlgren, his opin.i on was that, animal or pet rl inics should be al lowed as it conditional use in a 13-3 or B-4 district. He did not feel, however, that, n shopping center was the, best, location for an animal pet clinic, but, he would rather see such an operation located independc-ntly of other business becauso of noise and other problems that could arise with such a business. POSSI BLE ACTION: After close of Public Hearing, consideration of adding animal clinics as a condi- tional use in a 11-3 district. if an animal clinir is added as a conditional use in a B-3 acne, con- sideration of approving or denying Dr. Erickson's request. Por a conditional use permit.. Agenda Item 3. Public Hearing - Consideration of Rezoning a 9 acre parcel south of I-94 between Highway 25 & Marvin Road. Mr. John Sandberg, for owner Clara Sweiven, is requesting that approximately 9 acres located south of I-94 and west of Highway 25 be rezoned from R-3 (medium density residential) to B-3 (Highway business). (See enclosed map for location of property). Mr. Sandberg is the agent for Clara Sweiven and is trying to sell this property for her. Pre- sently, he has no specific business interested in locating on this property, but he feels that the property is not really suited for apartment houses and would be more compatible with the surrounding area zoned B-3. Howard Dahlgren has previously indicated that all areas adjacent to the freeway or major thorough- fare should not automatically be zoned commercial as there would not be enough demand for this type of property. Previous committee consensus was that parcels of property should not be rezoned until such time as a specific business proposal or use was established. POSSIBLE ACTION: Approval or denial of rezoning request. REFERENCE: Map indicating proposed rezoning area. -2- WNTIC :'LID ?iT CLUUt, branch of Anoka lest Pot Hospital A.

Recognizing the long standing need for low cost housing for the elderly in this area, we find either of the proposed projects, the Cedar and 4th Street project of John Bergstad or the Ridgemont project of Wally Houle acceptable. However, we would like to state a unanimous pre- ference for the Cedar and 4th Street project for the following reasons: 1. Location. Itis closer to the downtown area and the proposed Senior Citizen Center. It would be a definite addition to the neighbor- hood; up -grading the area. It would not add to the traffic at the Ridge- mont si.to. It would not require bussing by local merchants or other groups. -. Construction. Itwould have more units - SO vs. 36. It has Cho kitchen and community room in the same building. It would have a high quality of construction with amenities such as individual balconies, outdoor recreation area and Uood laundry facilities.
