Planning Commission Resolution 554 -98 September 2, 1998 Page 3 (4) The use, in the opinion of the City Council, is reasonably related to the overall needs of the City and to the existing land use. (5) The use is consistent with the purposes of the Zoning Code and the purposes of the zoning district in which the applicant intends to locate the proposed use. (6) The use is not in conflict with the Comprehensive Plan of the City. Garages are typical uses in residential areas, and allow for storage of vehicles and other equipment. Having this garage will allow for the property owner to store vehicles, a car hauler and a race car in the garage instead of out in the open. NOW, THEREFORE, EE IT RESOLVED that the Mounds View Planning Commission recommends approval -of the conditional use permit to allow a 1,008 square -foot garage at 2185 Pinewood Drive with the following stipulations: 1. The conditional use permit shall be recorded with Ramsey County within 60 days of City Council approval, and a receipt of such recording shall be provided to the City of Mounds View. - 2. The garage shall be designed and maintained to provide a uniform building appearance with the house. 3. The garage shall not be used for living space or other uses not allowed by the district in which it is located or by the Zoning Code. Should the use change for which the permit was granted, the conditional use permit shall become null and void. 4. No other sheds or accessory buildings shall be allowed on this lot. 5. The driveway leading to the garage shall be improved with a permanent surface material of either concrete or asphalt in conjunction with the construction of the garage. If occupancy of the garage is to occur prior to the driveway's improvement, the applicant shall submit a letter or credit or performance bond in an amount equivalent to the valuation of the work yet to be completed, as estimated by the Community Development Director. 6. Upon the completion of the garage, exterior storage of materials and other items as outlined in Section 607.03 of the Mounds View Nuisance Code shall cease to exist. 7 All vehicles parked at the property shall be parked either upon the driveway's improved surface or within the garage.
