MEMORANDUM To:Mayor Webster and St. Anthony Village City Council From:Stephen Grittman, City Planner Date:City Council Meeting – November 12, 2024 GC Project No.140.10 Request:Zoning Ordinance Amendment – Clinic Office Uses in the L-I, Light Industrial District Applicant:Mike Mitchell Property Address: NA Property PID:NA PROJECT DESCRIPTION The applicant, a building owner/manager in the City’s Light-Industrial area, has applied for an amendment to the City’s zoning ordinance related to principal uses in the L-I, Light Industrial zoning district. The application is intended to expand the allowance for office uses in the L-I District to include professional offices that include clinic uses, or more broadly, uses in which a client or patient is seen by a health professional in either a group or individual setting. The zoning ordinance specifically accommodates requests for zoning ordinance amendments from property owners in the City. Currently, the Zoning Ordinance creates separate use classifications for “Professional Offices”, such as legal, real estate, or similar office-based personal services, “Commercial Offices”, which are identified as offices with a primarily administrative functions for commercial enterprises in a wide variety of business categories, and “Medical, dental, veterinary, and related clinics, in which customers receive such services in person, and which consist of offices, exam rooms, laboratory and similar services, and related activities”. Each of these is permitted in the Commercial zoning district. In the L-I, Light Industrial District, only Commercial Offices for administrative purposes are listed as an allowed permitted use. The majority of Light Industrial uses are manufacturing in nature. It should be noted that “Adult Daycare” uses are allowed in both the Commercial and Light Industrial Districts.
