Project Narrative <br />This application is for a conditional use permit to use the space at 555 Railroad Drive, Elk River MN as <br />a doggy daycare and/or boarding facility during high volume periods. <br />The property is currently used for dog training. We would like to also use it for overflow daycare and <br />boarding business over holidays (Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, and Christmas/New <br />Years.) During these times, we do not do any training in the building, but our current facility runs out <br />of daycare and boarding space. We would like to use our existing training space for overflow business <br />during these holidays. <br />There will be no interior or exterior modifications to the building, parking lot, or signage. <br />There will be at least one employee for every 15 dogs on the property during the day, and one <br />employee on -site in the overnight hours. <br />This facility will not be accessible to the public when it is being used for daycare/boarding. Owners <br />will drop their dogs off at our current facility at 503 Jackson Ave NW to and employees will transfer <br />dogs to and from this facility. Owners will also pick up their dogs at our 503 Jackson Ave NW <br />location. <br />Parking won't be impacted because we will only have a small staff (1-3 people) at the 555 Railroad <br />Drive location when it's being used for daycare/boarding. <br />I estimate that no more than 20-30 dogs would ever occupy this building when used for <br />daycare/boarding. <br />John Madsen <br />
