Purpose-The City of Pequot Lakes is anticipating receiving requests in the Light Industrial, Commercial Exempt and Multi Family zones that we do not have mechanism to deal with in their present Ordinance. This could be handled as a PUD which is not an option. Here again because of the transition between the two communities some items have not been dealt with. The proposed Ordinance changes are included in the Staff Report which is included. In the proposed new language in Light Industrial,PUD is listed under Conditional Use,which is compatible with the adjacent properties. John Derksen made a motion to pass#16 in Section 63.030 and add PUD to all three. Motion was seconded by Mark Hallen,all ayes,motion carried. Rhonda Rickard 5804 25th Avenue S.W. Pequot Lakes,Minnesota Purpose: Conditional use permit to allow commercial business within Light Industrial Ms Rickard stated that she would like to use the Kinzie Candle(front of building)for a fitness center. "It Figures". Joe Dotty and John Derksen abstain due to business relations with the applicant and Mr.Derksen being related to applicant. The Commission just passed PUD,multiple use in one building. Cheri Seils made a motion to grant the Conditional Use Permit with Mr. Marohn's recommendations: 1. Within 60 days,the owner of the property must apply for a Planned Unit Development to operate multiple businesses on the same parcel. 2.

Item#6 P&Z Administrator's Report The Commission felt that it was valuable to have the Zoning Administrators give a monthly report on the over the counter permits given the previous month. This would give the Commission members the ability to answer questions when they are asked why certain permits were given or what is going on in a certain area of the community.
