City of Mounds View Staff Report August 8, 1997 • Page 3 to the proposed day care center without any significant disruption to surrounding residential neighborhoods. Edgewood Drive is classified as a local street in the Mounds View Comprehensive Plan. The Planning Commission made a finding that this classification is not consistent with the way the street functions and recommended that this classification be revised. A condition of approval has been included that a Comprehensive Plan amendment be initiated to change the classification for Edgewood Drive from a local street to a collector street. Both the Planning Commission and staff feel that the intent of this criterion has been met. ■ Signage: No signage proposal has been included in the permit application and it is unknown what the plans have been made for signage for this facility. A condition requiring that any signage proposal be in accordance with the Mounds View Sign Code, and with any overall sign package for the Community Center established by the City of Mounds View, is included as a condition in the proposed resolution. Planning Commission suggested that signage be installed designating the short term parking area, to assure that it remains available for dropping off and picking up children and is not used for long term parking. They also recommended that there be directional signage to facilitate traffic flow through the drop-off area. A condition to this effect is included in the proposed resolution. • • , Distance to Highway 10: The day care center is approximately 550 feet between the play yard and the closest point along the Highway 10 right-of-way, which exceeds the minimum required distance of 200 feet. • Distance to Premises Holding Licenses for Adult Businesses or Liquor: There are no businesses holding a license for adult businesses or liquor within 500 feet of this property. Recommendation: Planning Commission, by a vote of 6-0, and staff recommend approval of Resolution No. 5145, a resolution approving a conditional use permit for the Children's Home Society at 5394 Edgewood Drive. 1,TAA) Ski Pamela Sheldon, Community Development Director Attachments: City Council Resolution No. 5145 Planning Application Letter from Applicant Zoning Map Planning Commission Resolution No. 521-97 • Site Plan(separate print) Floorplan(separate print) cc: Jackie Olafson, Children's Home Society, 1605 Eustis Street, St. Paul MN 55108-1219 N:\DATA\GROUPS\COMDEV\DE VCASES\499-97\CHILHOME.CC 1
