2350 WYCLIFF STREET - SUITE 200 • SAINT PAUL, MINNESOTA 55114 TELEPHONE 651-224-3781 • FACSIMILE 651-223-8019 www.kellyandlemmons.com Specifically, the planner addressed the issuance of the conditional use permit at the proposed location. In the planner and staff evaluation, the first standard was addressed as follows: 1. Will not endanger, injure or detrimentally affect the use and enjoyment of other property in the immediate vicinity or the public health, safety, morals, comfort, convenience or general welfare of the neighborhood or the city. The proposed use is self-contained, regulated by the State of MN, does not generate significant traffic, and does not appear to pose a security threat to nearby residents. The site is adjacent to Highway 10 with access to a signalized intersection and any traffic generated by the use will likely utilize this intersection. For these reasons, along with the extensive screening, the us is not expected to detrimentally affect the use and enjoyment of the other property in the area. On November 27, 2018, the planner submitted recommendation by motion, approval of the conditional use permit to operate a conditional use at 633 Upland Ave with the following condition: 1. A copy of the Intensive Residential Treatment Services (IRTS) License from the State of MN must be submitted to the city. 2. The SAC/WAC Unites will be reassessed in order to decide if an additional WAC Fee will need to be paid based on the change in use. 3. Smoking shall not be allowed in the building, and a designated smoking area outside of the building must be identified on the site plans.

After the close of the public hearing and after reviewing reports and comments, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the condition use permit unanimously. On December 17, 2018, the City Council discussed the request for the conditional use permit.
