CM OF OM[�DS • Phone: (612)717-400 Q wv Fax: (612)784-3462 A ~e'ress Partneo'(%�QS March 4, 1999 Andrea McRannolds 2841 Bronson Drive Mounds View, MN 55112 RE: CUP for Residential Dog Kennel and'License Dear Ms. McRannolds: • I have received your letter dated February 28, in which you raise some questions regarding your application for a residential dog kennel conditional use permit. I will respond to each of your questions and then present you with two options as to how we can proceed with your request. The conditional use permit process is a requirement of the dog kennel license. I was assured that • you were sent all of the forms for this application and made aware of the requirements. For your reference, I am enclosing a page from our City Code regarding kennels licenses, which indicates that applicants need to apply for a conditional use permit and obtain signatures from more than fifty percent of all registered land-owners within 500 feet of the subject property. Thus, even though there is no "house" at the City pump station property, as a property within 500 feet of yours, it was counted. As you can see from the map I created showing the 500-foot radius, there are 57 properties within • .. .' .i •'• • - ' - •' m-.A A. ou will need to :ain a minimum of 29 si: atures. (On an earlier map, the number of parcels were fewer as it did not take into account the new townhomes on Silver Lake Road.) The list of signatures you provided to us, a copy of which I am returning to you, indicates only six signatures. Your presence at public meetings for your conditional use permit is not mandatory, though it is certainly recommended, especially if the Planning Commission or Council has any questions regarding the request. If you will be out of town and cannot appear before either group, your application will still be processed and you will be notified as to the result. As to the age and size of the dogs, as long as you have more than two dogs, you are required to have a conditional use permit for a residential dog kennel. .I realize that these are indoor dogs and that no kennel structure will be constructed outside, however this is immaterial in that a permit is • required regardless. If the City Council votes to deny your conditional use permit request, you will need to give up two of the dogs. 411 J PRINTED WITH 2401 Highway 10• Mounds View, MN 55112-1499 +U • INK ira recycled paper Eauai Opportunity Employer
