20190205_Planning_Report
CASE NUMBER: 2019-0201
DATE: February 5, 2019
TO: Columbia Heights Planning Commission
APPLICANT: City of Columbia Heights
DEVELOPMENT: N/A
LOCATION: N/A
REQUEST: Zoning Text Amendment
PREPARED BY: Elizabeth Hammond, City Planner
INTRODUCTION
Under the direction of the City Council, staff proposes to add two definitions to the Zoning
Ordinance, defining Banquet Halls and Recreational Facilities. Currently these uses are called
out in the Zoning Ordinance as permitted uses; however, they are not defined. In addition,
Specific Development Standards are proposed to be added, which would guide the operation of
Banquet Halls. Community Centers and Recreational Facilities already have Specific
Development Requirements called out in the City’s Zoning Ordinance.
Finally, staff has proposed to remove Community Centers, Recreational Facilities, and Banquet
Halls as permitted uses in the General Business and Central Business Zoning District. These uses
would be changed to conditional uses (which would still be allowed) in both the General
Business and Central Business Zoning District. If approved, a Conditional Use Permit (CUP)
would be required to be obtained from the City, prior to operation. These uses are proposed to
be changed to conditional uses, due to the nature and potential impacts on surrounding
property.
Staff has reviewed Ordinance No. 1653, with the City Council at the January work session
meeting, and the City Council requested that staff bring this ordinance for consideration to the
Planning Commission. Attached is the ordinance, which shows how it currently reads, and
outlines the proposed changes. If the Planning Commission recommends that the City Council
approve the ordinance as presented, it will go before the council for two readings in February.
FINDINGS OF FACT
The City Council shall make each of the following findings before granting approval of a request
to amend the Zoning Ordinance.

City of Columbia Heights Planning and Zoning Commission [Date]
Planning Report Page 2
(a) The amendment is consistent with the comprehensive plan.
This is correct. Appropriately defining uses which are allowed in various zoning districts
throughout the City, and providing specific standards for those uses, assists staff when
interpreting the Zoning Ordinance. Requiring a Conditional Use Permit for uses which could
potentially impact surrounding properties is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.
(b) The amendment is in the public interest and is not solely for the benefit of a single
property owner.
This is correct.
(c) Where the amendment is to change the zoning classification of a particular property, the
existing use of the property and the zoning classification of property within the general area of
the property in question are compatible with the proposed zoning classification.
N/A
(d) Where the amendment is to change the zoning classification of a particular property, there
has been a change in the character or trend of development in the general area of the prop erty
in question, which has taken place since such property was placed in its current zoning
classification.
N/A

and recreational facilities (indoor and outdoor) within the City of Columbia Heights.

TO: Columbia Heights Planning Commission
APPLICANT: City of Columbia Heights
DEVELOPMENT: N/A
LOCATION: N/A
REQUEST: Zoning Text Amendment
PREPARED BY: Elizabeth Hammond, City Planner
INTRODUCTION
Under the direction of the City Council, staff proposes to change the definition of “Brew Pub”,
which is identified in the City’s Zoning Ordinance. The proposed change would remove the
barrel production limits currently called out in the definition. In addition, a Specific
Development Standard is proposed to be added to the existing standards, which guide the
operation of Brewer Taprooms and Brew Pubs. The new standard would require that the facility
adheres to all building and fire codes, and that the facility is licensed as required by the State of
Minnesota and Anoka County.
Staff proposes to remove the barrel production limits, which are currently imposed on Brewer
Taprooms. A Brewer Taproom is currently permitted in the General Business District with a limit
of 3,500 barrels of malt liquor a year. Removing this limit could make it easier for a brewery to
locate and continue operating in the City. In addition, it could be difficult for staff to accurately
track.
Finally, Brewer Taprooms are currently permitted in the Central Business District. Staff
proposes to remove Brewer Taprooms and Brew Pubs as a permitted use in the Central
Business District, and change these uses to a conditional use in the Central Business District.
Due to the nature of the uses, and the fact that the Central Business District is a relatively small
area with smaller lot sizes, and adjacent to residential areas, staff proposes to require a
Conditional Use Permit to mitigate any potential impacts to the surrounding area.
Staff reviewed Ordinance No. 1654, with the City Council at the January work session meeting,
and the City Council requested that staff bring this ordinance for consideration to the Planning
Commission. Attached is the ordinance, which shows how it currently reads, and outlines the
