Ayes 5, nays <br />0. <br />(#4) 1^1860 ZELMA McKINNEY, 3599 LIVLNGSTON AVENUE - CONTINUATION OF <br />REVIEW OF CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT APPLICATION <br />Mayor Callahan explained that Council was to consider whether a driveway should be accessed <br />off of Blaine Avenue or Livingston Avenue. He added that all Councilmembers should have <br />received a letter from the neighbors’ attorney expressing the view that the City is not required <br />to grant a conditional use permit. Callahan had asked City Attorney Staunton to review the <br />letter from the Lommen Nelson law firm. City Attorney Staunton reaftlnned his opinion that <br />the City must grant a conditional use pennit in this case and the City does not have the ability <br />to add an owner occupied status as a condition of the conditional use. <br />Callahan stated there were two concerns remaining: <br />1, Has the properly been used according to the Code? <br />2. Parking issues. <br />Mabusth explained the two parking options: <br />1. Access from Livingston A'-enue wiili the existing drive to be realigned. <br />Hardcover will be an issue in this option w ith the addition of two parking stalls. <br />City Engineer Cook commented on drainage in the area stating it would be hard <br />to calculate the overall effect of this small additional amount of hardcover. <br />However, anything done in the area will impact the watershed. <br />2.Creation of a new curb cut off of Blaine Avenue. The 15’ street setback would <br />allow parking at 15’. Backing out onto Blaine Avenue would result. Additional <br />land alteiations would be required according to the City Engineer. City Engineer <br />Cook added that a "daylight area" would need to be created to the m>rth and that <br />clear visibility would liave to be maintained involving the neighbor to the .wuth. <br />He stated this access could be made safe but there would be significant impact on <br />the property.
