We sHould never allow a ~conditional use I! unless we <br />anticipate that such a use might actually occur. It is of course <br />much easier to deny a request for a variance than it is to deny a <br />request for a conditional use permit. After all a conditional use <br />permit is a use that is contemplated for a certain zoning district. <br /> <br />However/ in the case of bingo there are other regulations. I do <br />not believe that ,the same concerns for other uses would be <br />applicable to bingd halls. <br /> <br />*Also Admitted in Wisconsin <br />tCivll Trial Specialist, Certified by the Civil Litigation Section of the Minnesota State Bar Association. <br /> <br />M-.J:(~~ <br />
