Item 05A <br />Page 2 of 4 <br />(5) All animal boarding facilities shall comply with the nuisance codes established for the <br />city; and <br />(6) All animal boarding facilities shall comply with the state's Pet and Companion Animal <br />Welfare Act (M.S. §§ 346.35 through 346.44, as they may be amended from time to <br />time). 2 <br />The outdoor area (L-shaped) between the building and garage is about 15' in depth, and about <br />10' in depth behind the garage. This area will be fenced. There is an apartment building to the <br />west, which would be most affected. Dogs will be supervised at all times, when outdoors. <br />Staff recommends that either the fencing be solid, or that pine trees be planted between the <br />kennel and the adjacent apartment building. <br />There are eleven parking stalls in front of the building. Parking requirements for animal <br />boarding and the furniture store, are based on factors unknown at this time. The building owner <br />and tenants do not have a final plan as to how the building will be divided for each use, which <br />would be used to calculate parking requirements. In Staff's opinion, parking should be <br />adequate for these two tenants, although it will not comply with the City Code (estimate <br />requiring 16 stalls for Animal Boarding, and 47 for Furniture Store.). 3 <br />Strategic Plan Strategy/Goal: <br />Continue BR&E program, maximize utilization of development space and current list of available <br />sites, encourage land owners to maintain their properties, & consider residential redevelopment. <br />Financial Impact: <br />N/A <br />Recommendation: <br />Staff recommends approval. <br />The City Council will conduct a Public Hearing on Monday, November 22nd <br />Respectfully, <br />'4.--4Q4S49 <br />Jon Sevald, AICP <br />Community Development Director <br />ATTACHED <br />Aerial Map <br />Site Photos <br />Applicant's letter <br />Resolution 1140-21 <br />2 MN Statute §346.39 (Dogs and Cats) provides the care standards for the keeping of dogs and cats. <br />3 Mounds View City Code §160.342 Schedule of Off -Street Parking requirements) <br />Office building, animal hospital and professional office; Three spaces, plus one space for each 175 square feet <br />of floor area.
