� Mounds View City Council May 24, 2010 Regular Meeting Page 6 Mayor Flaherty encouraged Ms. Huffman to speak further with City staff to learn more about the City's rules and regulations in the B-1 zoning district. He applauded her for her efforts in starting a new business and wished her all the best. MOTION/SECOND: Mueller/Hull. To Waive the Reading and Adopt Ordinance 845, an Ordinance Amending Chapter 1112.02 of the Mounds View Zoning Code to Add Additional Permitted Uses to the B-1 Neighborhood Business Zoning District. Council Member Stigney felt all of the suggested additional uses would be beneficial as neighborhood businesses except tl�rift stores. He indicated these could have a negative impact on adjacent neighborhoods and Thrift Stores belong in the B-3 zoning district. ROLL CALL: Stigney/HulUMuller/Gunn/Flaherty. C. Ayes — 4 Nays — 1(Stigney) Motion carried. 7:15 p.m. Public Hearing to Consider Resolution 7621, a Conditional Use Permit for Outdoor Sales — Farmer's Market, at 2430 Highway 10 (Wynnsong Movie Theater parking lot). Planning Association Heller stated the applicant, Amaya Basumatary with PMY Management, is requesting city approval of a conditional use pernut to have outdoor seasonal sales in the parking lot of the Wynnsong movie theater. She is proposing to have a farmers market on Saturdays from 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. in the parking lot of the movie theater at 2430 Highway 10 from June 19 until October 16 each year. This property is zoned PUD (Planned Unit Development). According to the submitted site plan, the market would use about 10-12 parking spaces for vendors in the southern end of the parking lot near Moe's restaurant. Ms. Basumatary plans to start small this year with a few vendors to see if a farmers market is successful in Mounds View. If the market is successful, she would add more vendors to this location in the future. She has organized other farmers markets and has six vendors ready to participate in Mounds View this year. The City Code limits the outside services and sales to 30 percent of the gross floor area of the building. In this case, the movie theater is a very large building so there is no problem with the small area of the parking lot that she is proposing for the market. City staff will monitor the parking situation with the market and the theater - especially if the market is successful and becomes larger. Staff has drafted the resolution for the conditional use pernut in such a way so that the applicant would not need to appear before the Planning Commission and City Council each year. The CUP will remain in effect indefinitely as long as there are no changes to the operation and there have been no problems or reasons that would warrant the City Council to re-examine the CUP.
