In October 2008, the <br />property was subdivided, creating a buildable lot from a previous outlot of Hillside Estates. <br />An office building is a permitted use in the zoning district; the site plan for the building was approved <br />administratively on October 13, 2008, subject to conditions outlined in a Staff comment letter on that <br />date. Those conditions were incorporated into the conditions above. <br />S:\PLANNING MAIN\Case Files\CUP\CU 08-21 Winkelman (MSB)\CC staff report 11-17-O8.doc <br />
