City Council Minutes Page 10 <br /> September 19,2016 <br /> ----------------------------- <br /> Mr. Carlton discussed the seven conditions required in Spectrum's current <br /> Conditional Use Permit. He stated the Council would have to find fault with a <br /> condition in order to deny the permit. <br /> Attorney Beck stated Council knew at the time they would be setting a precedent. <br /> Councilmember Wagner expressed concerns with the mixed uses. She expressed <br /> concerns with the building conversion to school use,and then having to change it <br /> back to a business park use if they leave. She asked if there is a way Council can <br /> require a guarantee from Spectrum to remain in the building for a certain amount of <br /> years. <br /> Attorney Beck stated no. <br /> Councilmember Westgaard questioned how the school was allowed in the business <br /> park district. <br /> Mr. Carlton stated Council amended city ordinance to allow institutional uses in <br /> business parks as a conditional use when Spectrum first came forward asking for it. <br /> Mayor Dietz told staff to communicate back to Spectrum to continue to move <br /> forward with their project. <br /> 9.3 Miscellaneous Proposed Zoning Ordinance Amendments <br /> Mr. Leeseberg presented the staff report. <br /> KennelslAnimals <br /> Councilmember Burandt noted there can be confusion on whether a kennel is <br /> outside or inside and suggested a different definition. <br /> Council concurred to: <br /> ■ Regulate the number of animals dependent on lot sizes <br /> ■ Categorize animals <br /> ■ Check with the League of Minnesota Cities <br /> ■ Research other city ordinances <br /> Chickens <br /> Mr. Leeseberg stated chickens are only allowed with a Conditional Use Permit on <br /> large parcels. He stated more staff time will be required in code enforcement if <br /> chickens are allowed in urban areas. <br /> Council was open to allowing chickens in urban areas but language should be <br /> specific on how many are allowed based on lot size. Staff is to look at whether they <br /> need to be contained. <br /> UREJ <br />
