The geographical area involved.
Whether such use will tend to or actually depreciate the area in which it is
proposed.
The character of the surrounding area.
The demonstrated need for such use.
(4)
(5)
The proposal is for a temporary produce stand in the parking lot of an existing shopping
center. The Comprehensive Plan designates this site as HC--Highway Commercial. The
produce stand is an appropriate use within this designation. The shopping center is
surrounded by roadways and the area where the use is to be located is 1,000 feet from the
nearest residential property, The sale of produce is a typical seasonal business in a
community such as Mounds View and it serves a community need. The short duration of
the use will result in little, if any, adverse effect upon the surrounding area.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Mounds View City Council
recommends approval of the conditional use permit with the following stipulations:
I. The facility shall be allowed to operate from July 1 to September 30 of each year.
2. The hours of operation of the facility shall not exceed 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.
3. Signage shall be allowed only as affixed to the gazebo base and/or canvas roof.
4. Lighting for the use shall be supplied by existing parking lot standards.
5. The applicant shall provide the following on an annual basis to the Director of
Community Development:

expiration date and shall remain in force so long as the conditions agreed upon herein are
observed.
Adopted this 28th day of June, 1999.
