Floor Plan Background Ms. Odenwalk proposes to occupy the space that was formerly occupied by Jul Ann's Salon. That business moved across the street in 2005 because the Narrows Saloon was planning to expand into the entire building. That did not happen. The space is 960 square feet on the first floor and in the basement. It has doors on the front and rear. No exterior alterations are proposed other than a new sign. Staff Comment The businesses effected by the proposed business would be those around the municipal parking lot. Already there are a restaurant, offices, service station, bar,hardware store, boutiques, and glass business plus several vacant spaces. Staff does not anticipate a sports and health club would be detrimental to this mix. It will bring potential customers for the other businesses. Topography and the Navarre Playground separate this commercial area from surrounding residential areas. Staff suggests that the conditional use permit be no more specific than a sports and health club. Specifying the space it may occupy should ensure it does expand without further � approvals. � The Code requires ten parking spaces for a sports and health club of this size. The beauty salon that previously occupied this space required 13 spaces. The applicant was asked what the general hours of operation would be, what use would be made of the basement, and the approximate maximum number of people that would be on the premises at one time but she has not responded. The applicant should be asked these questions. Issues for Consideration l.
