<br />Page 2 of 24 <br /> <br />This commercial corridor is accessible by way of County Road E West. This area is used by a <br />number of small and large businesses for a variety of retail, manufacturing, distribution, <br />warehousing, and office uses. <br /> <br />2. History of the Subject Property <br /> <br />The Subject Property was developed in 1986 as a bingo hall consisting of the approximately 11,000 <br />square foot principal structure. A site plan review was required for this development as the property <br />had previously been used as a lumber site. The property changed ownership in 1991 and 2020 with <br />its continued use as a bingo hall which falls under the Commercial Recreation, Indoor land use <br />definition in the City’s Zoning Code. In 2020, the property’s kitchen was remodeled and the <br />Brightside Café was opened within the existing bingo hall. In 2021, the Brightside Café was <br />approved for a liquor license effective in 2022. In 2023, Northern Lights Bingo Hall ceased bingo <br />game operations and the Subject Property started to be used for organized sports, which also falls <br />under the definition of a Commercial Recreation, Indoor land use with the installation of turf for <br />the rental use of soccer clubs for practices. A liquor license for the Brightside Café was maintained <br />through the end of 2023 but was not renewed for 2024. <br /> <br />Approvals <br /> <br />1. Zoning Code Amendment <br /> <br />The Applicant is proposing to use the property as an Event Center. Currently, the city code is <br />absent of land use language permitting an Event Center use or establishing standards for the <br />development or operation of an event center within any zoning district. To allow this land use, the <br />City’s Zoning Code would need to be amended to add a definition for an Event Center and to <br />designate this type of land use within a zoning district. The proposed Event Center would not be <br />permitted without a zoning code amendment. <br /> <br />As part of the land use application, the Applicant has proposed for the use of an event center to be <br />allowed in the B-2 General Business Zoning District through a conditional use permit. The <br />Applicant has stated that the addition of an event center as a conditional use in the B-2 Zoning <br />District aligns with the districts purpose of accommodating commercial activities that serve the <br />local community. The other approvals noted in the land use application would not be applicable <br />unless the Event Center use is permitted within the B-2 General Business Zoning District. <br /> <br />2. Planned Unit Development <br /> <br />A Planned Unit Development (PUD) is required for all new development and redevelopment in <br />the B-2 District. In addition, a PUD would allow for performance standard flexibility. This <br />proposal involves both the initial Master Plan PUD and the Final PUD for Phase I and II. Under <br />the PUD Master Plan, the Applicant shall provide details for each stage of development, but would <br />be required to seek the PUD Final Plan approval of Phase III at the time of establishing the future <br />use of an adult day care. The Applicant has provided details in the Architectural Plans (Attachment <br />G) which identifies how the Subject Property would be utilized in Phase I as an event center, Phase <br />II as a restaurant, and Phase III as an adult day care. The Planning Commission should consider <br />the different phases of development while considering the Master and Final PUD as proposed in <br />this application. In this application, the Applicant is seeking approval for Phase I, the event center, <br />and Phase II, which includes the restaurant. The Applicant states in the narrative that Phase II
