WHEREAS, the Mounds View Planning Commission reviewed the conditional use
permit request at their meeting on June 18,2003 and adopted a resolution in support of the
request.

1. The garage shall not be used for commercial purposes, living space or other
uses not allowed within the R-1 Single-Family Residential district or by the
Zonin~) Code. Should the use change for which the permit was granted, the
conditional use permit shall be considered null and void.

5. The property owner shall ensure that overhead powerlines maintain proper
clearance (min 3') above the new garage.
Adopted this 23rd day of June, 2003.
