Mr. Strand noted that daycare for adults is a business in its 37 infancy with only 11,000 Minnesotans using the service,but he feels it's needed. He stated only 38 a few cities have added it to their zoning and is requesting the City of St. Anthony do so as well. 39 Mr. Strand said many steps need to be taken in order for the process to begin such as completing 40 an application,doing a background study, and getting approval from zoning, the fire marshal, 41 and local health department. 42 43 Councilmember Horst asked if the ordinance needs to be changed because there is not a 44 distinction between child and adult daycare. Mr. Strand said the zoning is stated as child daycare 0 and it is not specific to adults.
