I honestly forgot to email you and I apologize for that. <br /> I haven't begun drafting the resolution yet but I did speak with the City's attorney regarding specific language within the <br /> resolution. We cannot specifically limit the use of the property to my"The Emily Program", and if another in-patient, <br /> residential treatment facility were to occupy that space they woul be permitted to do so if the conditions of the <br /> approval were able to be met and if it was consistent with our Cod . I will include some language regarding the#of <br /> beds you are permitted (limit of 10), and site specific things such a little or no site signage (we should discuss this) and <br /> residential exterior finishes of the building that are specific to your use that may limit other groups from occupying the <br /> building. <br /> Regarding the garage, as we discussed a conditional use permit is required as your use of the property is permitted <br /> conditionally. I would like to sort of"fast track"this so we can hav one resolution which covers the use and the garage <br /> (if approved). The Planning Commission must review the garage p rt of your application but I would like to bring the <br /> application just for the use of the property—as scheduled—to the ouncil meeting on February 8t". At this meeting I will <br /> not have drafted a resolution but rather will ask the Council to dire t me to do so. I will inform the Council that the <br /> Planning Commission will be reviewing the garage portion of the application at the February Planning Commission <br /> meeting the following week. Hopefully then at that point I can bring the Council two resolution options at the February <br /> 22"d meeting—one option approving both the use and the garage,and one option approving only the use. <br /> I'm sure my rambling doesn't make much sense but I wanted to get you the schedule of events as soon as possible to <br /> make up for my previous forgetfulness. <br /> I will need to get copies of the survey and garage plans as soon as hey are available, preferably no later than February <br /> 4. I included the garage request on the legal notification for the n wspaper as tomorrow is the deadline for us to have it <br /> to the newspaper. <br /> Melanie <br /> Melanie Curtis <br /> Planning &Zoning Coordinator <br /> City of Orono <br /> 2750 Kelley Parkway <br /> Orono, MN 55356 <br /> Direct Dial: 952.249.4627 <br /> Fax: 952.249.4616 <br /> Planning &Zoning Office 952.249.4620 <br /> Email: mcurtiseci.orono.mn.us <br /> Website: www.ci.orono.mn.us <br /> 1 <br />
