Mounds View City Council June 14, 2010 Regular Meeting Page 11 • Community Development Director Roberts stated this was the second reading on a zoning code text amendment to add "thrift store" as a permitted use in the B-1, Neighborhood Business district. Dawn Huffman wanted the City to make this change so she may open a thrift store in the vacant space at 2408 County Road I. City staff felt that more permitted uses could also be added to the B-1 zoning district. According to the Zoning Code, the purpose of the B-1 district is as follows: The purpose of the B-1, Neighborhood Business District, is to provide for the establishment of local centers for convenient, limited office, retail or service outlets which deal directly with the customer for whom the goods or services are furnished. These centers are to provide services and goods for the surrounding neighborhoods and are not intended to draw customers from the entire community. Community Development Director Roberts indicated the Planning Commission recommended the text amendment, as does staff. MOTION/SECOND: Mueller/Hull. To Waive the Second 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 and consent to the publication of a summary for the ordinance as authorized by City Charter section 3.07. Council Member Stigney felt thrift stores were more suited for the B-3 district and not the B-1, • and he would therefore not support this motion. ROLL CALL: Hull/Stigney/Mueller/Guiu�/Flaherty. Ayes — 4 Nays —1 (Stigney) Motion carried. J. Resoiution 7623, Reapproving the Final Plat & Development Agreement for the Select Senior Living project at County Highway 10 & Groveland Road Community Development Director Roberts stated that on October 27, 2008, the City Council passed Resolution 7347, which approved the final plat and development agreement for the Select Senior Living development. This was the last of the Council actions required in order for the project to move forward. Per city code, an applicant has 120 days to record the plat with Ramsey County, and if the recording does not happen within this timeframe, the plat approval is void. The code also states that the plat can be reapproved and the applicant given up to another 120 days. Due to the shakeup within the banking industry, Select Senior Living was not able to start the project within the allowed 120 days and their final plat and development agreement approval became void. Community Development Director Roberts noted that on July 13, 2009, October 26, 2009 and February 22, 2010, the City Council re-approved the final plat and development agreement for this project for an additional 120 days. The applicant anticipates securing financing and will then • move forward with this project. Select Senior Living is again asking for a 120 day re-approval of the final plat and development agreement which would expire on October 20, 2010.
