DATE: 9/28/94 <br /> AGENDA ITEM: P 1 <br /> ITEM: A request for a conditional use permit for the operation of a secondhand <br /> clothing store at 1583 North Hamline Avenue in a shopping center <br /> building <br /> SUBMITTED BY: J.T. Bonner, Proprietor <br /> Dirk Bordson, Property Owner <br /> REVIEWED BY: Planning Commission <br /> Susan Hoyt, City Administrator <br /> EXPLANATION /DESCRIPTION /STAFF REPORT: (prepared by Susan Hoyt) <br /> Proposal <br /> Mr. Bonner plans to open a used clothing store in the basement of the shopping <br /> center along Hamline Avenue. The store will specialize in used blue jeans and will be <br /> called "Feathered Denims The proposed hours of operation are evenings 4 PM to <br /> 8 PM and Saturdays from 9 AM to 4 PM. <br /> Zoning code <br /> This proposed use meets the definition of a secondhand goods store and is a <br /> conditional use in the B 1 neighborhood business district of the zoning code (Chapter <br /> 9 Section 8.01 Subdivision 3 d). For purposes of the zoning code a secondhand <br /> goods store is defined as: <br /> Any store engaged in the business of selling or receiving tangible personal <br /> property which has been previously used, rented, owned or leased, but <br /> excluding stores which engage in the sale of any used: automobiles; electronic <br /> equipment such as stereos, cameras, computers, televisions, audio and video <br /> equipment, and similar equipment or appliances; jewelry and precious gems; or <br /> guns. Stores which engage in any pawning activity whatsoever fall within the <br /> definition of "pawn shop" and shall not be included within the definition of <br /> "secondhand goods store." <br /> Response to public notice and mailings <br /> The city published a notice on this public hearing and mailed letters to property <br /> owners within 350 feet of the property. As of this writing staff has received one call <br /> regarding the proposed business. The caller was concerned about the additional <br /> parking on the street from this use and said that she would prefer to see a bakery <br /> move into the building. <br />
