MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Littic Canada Planning-- Commission <br />FROM: <br />DATE: 5 ,tune 19R7 <br />RE: <br />an <br />ea at 1 • su-l• • • 1. . <br />FILE NO: 752 09 - 87 29 <br />in Comm. <br />northwest <br />associated <br />consultants, inc. <br />Dist. (612) 925 -9420 <br />ABR(RxxxamaxxtextiaxxxxxxXln m nneapohs, mn 55416 <br />Mr. Art Mueller has applied for a text amendment to allow group day care as <br />a principal use in all commercial districts. Currently, group day care is <br />allowed as a special home occupation (accessory use) in residential districts <br />and is a conditional use (principal) in R -2, R -3, and R -B districts. The ap- <br />plicant has requested that the City expand the use to commercial districts as <br />well. <br />This request is consistent with the day care industry's trend to locate nearer <br />to, or within, employment centers. In addition, the use generates traffic in <br />a pattern and volume more typical of commercial than of residential areas. <br />Our recommendation is to add group day care as a conditional use to all <br />commercial districts, with the conditions stipulated as in the other districts <br />which currently allow the use. <br />A proposed ordinance is included with this report. It adds the use specifically <br />in the B -1, B -W, and I -P districts as a conditional use. It is then allowed <br />in B -2, B -3, and I -1 districts by reference. <br />SG /jj <br />Page 9 <br />
