PLANNING REPORT <br />northwest associated corsultants, inc. <br />T0: Little Canada Mayor and City Council <br />FROM: David Licht <br />DATE: 24 October 1984 <br />RE: Michlitsch - Home Occupation <br />FILE NO: 758.09 - 84.48 <br />BACKGROUND <br />The applicant is requesting the relocationof his mail order sporting goods <br />and firearms business to his home which is located at 116 Australian Avenue. <br />Due to the nature of the proposed operation, approval of a "special home <br />occupation permit" is required. <br />CASE ANALYSIS <br />This case generates three possible concerns which if handled in a proper <br />fashion should not create difficulties for the neighborhood and area. <br />The first is the quantity and storage of ammunition and reloading powders <br />and primers. An excess quantity of these materials stored on site could <br />pose a potential fire and explosive hazard. The storage of these items should <br />be subject to a location and quantities approved by the Fire Marshall. <br />A second concern deals with delivery of merchandise to the home. While <br />most deliveries would typically be confined to United Parcel Service, larger <br />quantities of materials might require delivery by motor freight lines <br />utilizing semi's. A restriction prohibiting semi truck deliveries is <br />suggested to prevent neighborhood disruption, as well as avoiding such traffic <br />generation from a public safety concern. <br />The final possible problem relates to customers present at the site at one <br />time. To minimize neighborhood disruption and avoid parking concerns which <br />relate to inconvenience as well as public safety, it is suggested that customers <br />be limited to no more than one person at a time. <br />4R7n minnctonka blvd minneaoolis minnesot1 ste. 420 55416 tel 612/9 25 -9421 <br />
