2. The request is consistent with the Mounds View Comprehensive Plan in that the
Comprehensive Plan encourages the development and maintenance of residential areas
to improve the quality, appearance and attractiveness of housing units and residential
property in general.
3. The proposed garage would not be out of place given the character and geography of
the surrounding area involved.
4. The proposed garage would not depreciate the neighborhood.
5. The applicant has sufficiently demonstrated that a need exists for the proposed
oversized garage.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FINALLY RESOLVED that the Mounds View City Council
approves the conditional use permit for the 1,800 square foot garage, with conditions as
follows:
1. The garage shall not be used for living space or commercial purposes and other
uses not allowed within the R-1 Single-Family Residential district or by the Zoning Code.
Should the use change for which the permit was granted; the conditional use permit
shall be considered null and void.
2. The expanded garage area shall be designed and maintained to provide a
complimentary appearance with the existing house.
3. The Conditional Use Permit (CUP) shall become null and void if the work for which
the CUP was granted is not completed within one year from the date of approval unless
a petition for extension of time in which to complete the work has been granted by the City
Council.
Adopted this 28th day of April, 2014.
