Residential properties are located to the east on the opposite <br /> side of the Jackson Ave. <br /> The business will occupy the entire two story building,which will house dog daycare and overnight <br /> boarding serves.Daycare operations will have designated drop time of 6:30 a.m. and pick up time of 6:00 <br /> p.m. on weekdays.Daycare services will also operate from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on weekends. <br /> Comprehensive Plan <br /> The subject property is guided by the Mississippi Connections which seeks to reinvent the area as a <br /> destination for a variety of uses and activities. The redevelopment framework was adopted by the City <br /> Council in November,2012.The proposed use is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. <br /> Site Plan <br /> As detailed in the site plan,there will be a two phased approach to the building.The first floor includes <br /> outdoor storage areas and a staff lounge on the second floor. As the business grows and overnight <br /> boarding increases,additional kennels will be provided on the second floor to accommodate overnight <br /> boarding.A staff residence will also be included to provide 24 care opportunities for all dogs kept <br /> overnight. <br /> Setback <br /> The proposed accessory structure located in the outdoor storage area must meet the setbacks outlined in <br /> the Central Commercial district for accessory structures.As indicated in the proposed site plan,all <br /> setbacks will be met. <br /> Building and Architecture <br /> Floor plans have been included with the application.The proposed exterior of building is staying the <br /> same with the addition of a door to the rear of the building,accessing the proposed outdoor play area. <br /> An outdoor play area is proposed in the rear of the building and will house a small storage shed.The <br /> outdoor play area and storage shed will be completely enclosed by a six foot opaque fence. <br /> The site plan shows a refuse collection area. All refuse collection containers shall be stored within a <br /> closed enclosure facility at all times,large enough to accommodate the collection of all materials.The <br /> identified collection area will help guarantee all refuse containers and materials shall be out of sight,at all <br /> times, from neighboring properties and street. <br /> Landscaping <br /> A preliminary plan provided to staff,illustrates additional shrubbery along the building,in the play area <br /> and on the fence. The existing property provides no landscaping,as the property is completely covered in <br /> asphalt.The proposed plan provides additional greenery to soften the appearance of asphalt. The <br /> proposed landscaping is adequate for the space and no additional landscaping,than what has been <br /> provided in the site plan,is being recommended. <br /> N:\Departments\Community Development\Planning\Case Files\CUP\CU 16-24 Dakotah Doggy Daycare\4-Planning Commission\CU 16-24 sr <br /> PC 9-27-16_Doggy Daycare.docx <br />
