In addition, some commercial land use was <br /> also identified to compliment the business park development. <br /> At the time this Focus Area Study was completed, the City did <br /> not have a business park zoning ordinance adopted. Therefore, <br /> one of the recommendations from the Focus Area Study was for <br /> the City to create a business park zoning ordinance setting <br /> forth the standards and uses that would be found in the <br /> • business park district. This ordinance has recently been <br /> completed and approved by the City Council . <br /> P.O. Box 490 • 13065 Orono Parkway • Elk River, MN 55330 • (612) 441-7420 • Fax: (612) 441-7425 <br />
