September 9, 1971 STATE OF MINNESOTA 'CITY OF STILL.',iATLR COUNTY OF WASHINGTON PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - In Re: David T. Magnuson FINDINGS OF FACT AND RECO111MEINDATION - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - The Planning & Zoning Commission of the City of Stillwater, upon the Petition of David T. Magnuson (said petition having been duly filed and upon the calendar, having come on for hearing on the 9th day of September, 1971,) on hearing the evidence and being duly advised with respect to this petition, makes the following Findings of Fact: 1. That the Petitioner®s property is in close proximity to an institutional complex. 2. That the proposed site of Petitioner®s 4-plex is a piece of property three hundred (300) feet by ninety (90) feet with ninety (90) feet of frontage on Owen Street. 3. That the property size is such that the Petitioner could, wit1iin the existing RB zoning classification, place four (4) duplexes. That the Planning Commission finds that four (4) duplexes are less desirable than a single 4-plex on the site. 4. That the Planning and Zoning Commission believes that a 4-plex at this site would be a satisfactory land use, giving due consideration to the adjoining land uses and its proximity to a thoroughfare. 5. That under the existing ordinance, the 4-plex could be constructed only by re-zoning such piece of property to mul-tJ-family district. That the Planning and Zoning Commission believes that such re-zoning would be spot zoning and inherently undesirable. 6. That the Petitioner has indicated that he would be willing to apply for a special use permit and accept conditions under that special use permit that would not otherwise be permissible under the zoning ordinance. Therefore, the Planning and Zoning Commission recommends to the City Council that Ordinance 383, Section 12, RB-two family districts be amended to permit the issuance of a special use permit under Section 2 of Section 12 for multi-family dwellings and commercial business establishraentsv subject to Findings by the City Council similar to the recent amendment to the Zoning Ordinance enacted by the Council.
