o § 10.08 Subd. 8. Variances; Expiration. Variances shall expire one year after the date of Council approval if not used. Any change in use of the property shall require a new variance. Source: Ordinance No. 172 Effective Date: 1-1-75 Subd. 9. A certified copy of every variance granted under the provisions of Minnesota Statutes, Sections 462.358 and 462.359 shall be filed with the Hennepin County Recorder. Variances filed with the County Recorder pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 462.36, Subd. 1, do not constitute encumbrances on real property. The order issued by the City shall include the legal description of the property involved. Failure to file a variance shall not affect its validity or enforceability. SBC. 10.09. CONDITIONAL USES. Subd. 1. Conditional Uses: Purpose. In order to give the district use regulation the flexibility necessary to achieve the objectives of the Zoning Chapter, in certain districts, conditional uses are permitted, subject to the granting of a use permit. Conditional uses include those uses generally not suitable in a particular zoning district, but which may under some circumstances be suitable. When such circumstances exist, a conditional use permit may be granted. Conditions may be applied to issuance of the permit and a periodic review of the permit may be required. The permit shall be issued for a particular use and not for a particular person or firm. Because of their unusual characteristics, conditional uses require consideration so they may be located properly with respect to the objectives of the Zoning Chapter and the Comprehensive Municipal Plan and with respect to their effects on surrounding properties. In order to achieve these purposes, the Council is empowered to grant and to deny applications for conditional use permits and to impose reasonable conditions upon the granting of these permits. Source: City Code Effective Date: 4-1-84 Subd. 2. Conditional Uses: Reference t> Planning Commission. Before the Council may grant conditional use permits for such conditional uses as prescribed in the district regulations of the Zoning Chapter, the request therefor shall be referred to the Planning Commission for study concerning the effect of the proposed use on the ordinance and on the character and development of the neighborhood and for recommendation in regard to granting such conditional use and the conditions thereof, if any, or for the denial of such conditional use. The Council may by unanimous action waive reference to the Planning Commission. Source: Municipal Code Effective Date: 9-14-67 I .5 ORONO CC 267 (4-1-84)
