Pinewood <br />March 7, 2001 <br />Page 5 <br />Section 1125,01, Subd.le af the Zoning Code indicates that the Planning Commissian shall <br />consider possible adverse effects of the proposed conditional use. The Planning Coznmission's <br />judgment shadl be based upon (but not limited to} the following factors: <br />(1) Relationship to Municipal Comprehensive Plan, <br />(2) The geographical area irivolved. <br />�'� {3) Whether such use will tend to or actually depreciate the area in which it is proposed. <br />(4) The character of the surraunding area. <br />(5} The demonstrated need for such use. <br />The Comprehenszve Plan for th� Ciiy of Mounds View identifies this land as "School", which <br />would be appropriaie given its current use. The school is Iocated at the corner of Quincy Street <br />and County Road I and is bordered to the north, south and west by single famiiy residential <br />properties. Interstate 35W is located to the east of the schooi. %eographically speaking, the <br />school is ideally located. I don't thinlc ii would be the case that ihe school has had any <br />depreciative effect upon the neighborhood or on property values, but that is oniy an assumption. <br />I do know that some neighbors on Quincy Street frequently deal with paxking problems in front of <br />their homes, so they may have a different take on the depreciative effec� of the school. Last, I <br />would assert that there is a need for a school at that location given thai 660 children congregate <br />there on a daily basis. <br />Talcing all this into consideration, staffwould recommend that a CUP be issued to the school to <br />bring the use into compliance v�rith the CiCy's Zo�rung Code. <br />
