<br />. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION - NOVEMBER 3, 1999 <br /> <br />DRAFT <br /> <br />11 <br /> <br />Commissioner Sand asked why Institutional Housing was listed as a special use. He felt that this <br />sort of use would fit more Mthin a multi-family housing residential district than a downtown <br />district. Ms. McMonigal explained that some housing had been anticipated in the Civic Center <br />District. Commissioner Baker noted that there are some downtown businesses in other cities that <br />contain retail operations on the first floor with housing on upper levels. Ms. McMonigal stated <br />that this sort of use would be different from Institutional Housing. She noted that clinics were <br />listed in the Land Use Chart as not permitted and are similar institutional type uses. <br /> <br />Commissioner Duchenes asked how assisted living facilities compare to institutional housing. <br />Ms. McMonigal stated that assisted living facilities are typically residential. However, they can <br />be considered institutional, depending upon the level of care that is provided. Commissioner <br />Duchenes suggested that it may be acceptable to include some type of senior housing in the <br />District. <br /> <br />Ms. McMonigal noted that the City may not want a large concentration of non-tax paying <br />businesses. Commissioner Baker stated that most senior housing facilities pay taxes. Ms. <br />McMonigal agreed and added that this sort of use combined Mth others would create an <br />attractive mixed use environment. Chair Erickson agreed that the intent of the Zoning District <br />was to have a variety of mixed uses so as not to create an office park atmosphere. <br /> <br />Commissioner Sand noted that the City of New Brighton has done a nice job of mixing a housing <br />facility within the downtown area. Commissioner Nelson confirmed that Institutional Housing <br />should remain listed as a special use. The Planning Commission concurred. <br /> <br />Ms. McMonigal asked the Planning Commission for their opinion on allowing clinics in the <br />District. Commissioner Nelson asked what was typically found in other cities. Ms. McMonigal <br />stated that she was not sure, however, a clinic in a downtown atmosphere may be appropriate. <br />Commissioner Baker stated that clinics were similar to office and retail uses. He felt that if <br />offices were to be permitted uses, and retail services special uses, clinics should also be listed as <br />a special use. The Planning Commission concurred. <br /> <br />Ms. McMonigal suggested that the Planning Commission discuss the use of antenna, dishes or <br />towers, which was listed as not permitted. She indicated that the Prohibited Uses section of the <br />Ordinance prohibits the use oftowers for telecommunications. Only antennas that are flush, <br />parallel, unobtrusive and painted the same color as the building will be allowed. Additionally, <br />during the Comprehensive Plan update, the suggestion was made to place restrictions on the <br />entire TCAAP area. Therefore, she assumed that telecommunication towers would not be <br />appropriate. She suggested that this use category be changed to a special use. Commissioner <br />Baker suggested that antennas be restricted to only being installed as an accessory use for the <br />property. Ms. McMonigal agreed and suggested the use category be changed to a special <br />accessory use. The Planning Commission concurred. <br /> <br />Commissioner Sand confirmed that the following changes had been made to the Land Use Chart: <br />Antenna, Dish or Tower to special accessory use; Clinic to special use; Club or Lodge to special <br />use; Commercial Recreation to special use; and Hotel/Motel to special use. <br /> <br />Ms. McMonigal asked if the Planning Commission had any questions regarding the special <br />requirements section of the draft Ordinance. Chair Erickson confirmed that the intent ofthe <br />
