9.a) Certificate of Compliance, Upholstery Specialties, 21239 Olinda Trail N. . Meeting Date: 6/16/09 Agenda Item. �( �-� / City Council Agenda Report City of Scandia 14727 209`h St. North Scandia, MN 55073 (651) 433-2274 Action Requested: Issuance of a Certificate of Compliance to Christine Kallem DBA Upholstery Specialties for the building at 21239 Olinda Trail North. Deadline/ Timeline: Application received June 4, 2009; review deadline is August 3, 2009. Background: • The building, which is currently vacant, has been used as an auto body repair shop with low volumes of customer traffic in the past. The site is zoned "GB", General Business. • Upholstery Specialties specializes in reupholstering dental chairs and other similar furniture. Walk-in customers for upholstery services are welcome; however this is not the bulk of the business. They correspond with most of their customers via email or mail. • The proposed business does not align itself exactly with the definitions of uses described in the Zoning Ordinance. "Retail Sales"requires a Certificate of Compliance (CC) whereas "Light Manufacturing"requires a Conditional Use Permit (CUP.) • The Development Code: Chapter One, Section 2 includes the following definitions; Retail Business: Stores and shops selling personal services or goods over a counter. Light Manufacturing:A use engaged in the manufacture,predominantly from previously prepared materials,of finished products or parts,including processing, fabrication,assembly,treatment,packaging,incidental storage, sales,and distributing of such products. Such uses include,but are not limited to,the following: lumber yard,machine shops,product assembly,sheet metal shops,plastics,electronics,motor vehicle repair,body work and painting, contractor shops and storage yards,food and nonalcoholic beverages,signs and displays,printing,clothing,textiles and used auto parts. • The applicant will have 2 to 3 employees with customer parking needed occasionally. There appears to be ample parking on the site, however the parking area is not striped. I would estimate parking availability at 6 to 8 spaces. A sign indicating accessible parking is required. • A sign will be placed on the front exterior of the building that will be approximately 12 square feet. The Scandia sign ordinance Page 1 of 2 06/11/09 � allows for one square foot of sign per lineal foot of building and this building is approximately 40 feet wide. • No additional exterior lighting will be added. � Business hours will be 8 A.M. to 5 P.M. Monday through Friday. Recommendation: My recommendation is to issue the Certificate of Compliance for this new business. The business does not manufacture goods but alters a product and offers this service to customers which would more closely resemble the definition of a retail business. If the Council disagrees with this interpretation, the request should be denied and the applicant should be reyuired to apply for a Conditional Use Permit. A public hearing could be scheduled as early as at the July 7 Planning Commission meeting. Attachments/ • Draft Resolution Materials provided: .
