Title:
PUBLIC HEARING: Request for a Conditional Use Permit for Motor Vehicle, Implement, and Recreation Equipement Sales and Service at 7815 Riverdale Dr NW; Case of DSB Ventures, LLC
Background:
The City has received a conditional use permit (CUP) application from DSB Ventures, LLC to allow motor vehicle, implement, and recreation equipment sales and service for Lake Region RV's, Inc. at 7815 Riverdale Drive NW. In 2009, this type of use was reclassified from a Permitted Use to a Conditional Use in the B-2 Highway Business District. The Subject Property has not been used for motor vehicle, implement, and recreation equipment sales and service. The Application also includes to expand the existing parking lot to the adjacent, vacant parcel consisting of asphalt with concrete curb and gutter.
Notification:
In accordance with State Statute and City Code, Staff attempted to notify all property owners within 350 of the Subject Property of the Public Hearing via Standard US Mail. A Notice of Public Hearing was published in the Anoka County Union.
Observations:
Lake Region RV, currently Ramsey business, is proposing to relocate its operation to the Subject Property later this year. The building is currently occupied by Canvas Craft. The Subject Property consists of two (2) separate parcels totaling 2.65 acres in size. Lot 2 (7815 Riverdale Drive) currently contains a building of approximately 6,000 square feet. The parcel directly adjacent to the west (Lot 1), is currently vacant. The Applicant is proposing to construct the parking lot improvements on Lot 1, and utilize the existing improvements on Lot 2. As Lot 1 would have a parking lot without a primary structure, a condition of the Permit shall be that the two (2) parcels cannot be sold separately unless used for a joint use related to Lot 2. Alternatively, the Applicant can combine the two (2) parcels into one (1). Initial indications are that the Applicant will propose to combine the two (2) parcels.
City Code requires one (1) space for every ten (10) items on display. It appears that between the existing parking lot and proposed expanded parking lot, there should be sufficient off-street parking.
Detailed terms of the Agreement are included in the attached Proposed Findings of Fact and Conditional Use Permit.
