Tires N’ More CUP Report August 27, 2012 Page 4 The Demonstrated Need for Such a Use. The applicant is proposing a retail tire store that also may offer some auto repair services. There are two other businesses in the city that offer auto repair services (35W Auto Repair and Pat’s Muffler), and no other businesses that sell only tires. The proposed Tires N’ More business will primarily focus on the sale of tires and wheels and the installation services for them. Since there are no businesses in Mounds View that specialize in tire sales and installations, that could presumably mean that this service is needed in the city. Summary: The parking requirements are met as 19 parking spaces are required and a submitted site plan shows there is room for 59 spaces. The lot meets the minimum size and square footage requirements. Water runoff from the site will drain to the stormwater pond on the south side of the property. This pond was built to accommodate drainage for both the applicant’s lot and CVS. The Planning Commission reviewed this request on August 15, 2012 and voted 5-0 (Stevenson and Smith absent) to recommend approval. Staff recommends approval of this conditional use permit. Recommendations: After taking testimony from staff and the property owner, the City Council can take one of the following actions related to the request: 1. Approve the conditional use permit. Resolution 7984 is attached if the Council chooses this action. 2. Deny the conditional use permit. If the City Council selects this option, Staff would need to be directed to draft a resolution of denial with findings of fact appropriate to support the denial. 3. Table the request. If additional information is needed before a decision can be rendered or if more discussion is needed, the Council can simply move to table the request until such information has been provided. Because of 60-day requirements, the Council would need to act upon the request as soon as reasonably possible to avoid an inadvertent approval.
