Home My WebLink AboutSJ95-03 Addressing & Day Care Facility - r - SJ03Ll January 27, 1995 Kerry Ann Smith 5299 140th Street N E Prior Lake, MN 55372 Dear Ms. Smith: This letter is in regard to the street address of 5297 140th Street that is currently being used at your place of business. The Metropolitan 911 Telephone Board keeps track of address information that is used in order to inform emergency vehicles such as fire, police and ambulance services of your home and/or business location. All addresses are filed with the Metropolitan 911 Telephone Board who in turn verifies address information with the City of Prior Lake. The Prior Lake Planning Department is responsible to assign aI/legal addresses within the City limits. Please be advised that the address of 5297 140th Street, which you are currently using as the address for a day care operation must be changed to 5299 140th Street which is the legal address for the property. The City of Prior Lake address system is set up to allow only one address number per property. The use of two address numbers at the site should be discontinued immediately. Failure to use the correct legal address could result in a situation whereby an emergency vehicle may be delayed or not able to find your property because of an inaccurate address. I cannot stress the importance of accurate address information. Please contact Don Rye at 447-4230 if you have questions related to this letter.

January 13, 1995 Kerry Smith 5299 140th Street Prior Lake, MN 55372 Dear Ms. Smith: I am in receipt of your letter dated December 29, 1994 requesting information regarding the operation of a licensed day care facility at the property identified as 5299 140th Street. According to the letter there is currently a day care operation which is licensed operating on the subject site. I have researched this issue and records at the City of Prior Lake indicate there is a single family home built on the property legally described as: Lot 2, North Shore Oaks First Addition. The single family home was built in 1972 under the jurisdiction of Eagle Creek Township and in 1973 annexed to the City of Prior Lake. The subject site is zoned R1 Suburban Residential. As such, one licensed group family day care facility to serve 14 or few children is permitted. Attached please find an excerpt from the City Code which identifies the types of land uses which are permitted in the R1 Suburban Residential Zoning District. Specifically under Permitted Uses, Item #10, "Licensed group family day care facility to serve 14 or fewer children is permitted". Based upon the zoning code requirements the request to operate a second day care facility which would have the number of children exceeding 14, would not be permitted. Another issue raised in your letter relates to the use of a second address at the property. The address of record at City Hall for the site is 5299 140th Street NE. If a second address has indeed been used at the property and/or if there is a second family living at the home please be advised that both would be in violation of city code requirements for the City of Prior Lake. The use of the address 5297 140th Street NE and/or occupation of the single family home by a second family, should be discontinued immediately. The only way to legally operate a two family dwelling within the R1 Zoning District is to obtain approval of a Conditional Use permit which would be issued by the Planning Commission and City Council. No conditional use permit is on file for the subject site. In summary, one licensed group family day care facility serving 14 or fewer children is permitted on site. Because the single family home is located in an R1 Suburban Residential Zoning District expansion of the existing facility to serve more than 14 children would be a violation of the Prior Lake Zoning Code. Day care facilities for more than 14 children are only permitted within the City of Prior Lake in business zoning districts. In order to serve additional children, the operation would have to be relocated to an appropriate Business Zoning District. 16200 Eagle Creek Ave., Prior Lake, Minnesota 55372-1714 / Ph.

Currently, we hold a C3 license at 5299 140th Street NE. We would like permission for the county to give us a license at 5297 140th St NE. The Kiddie Korral has been open since December 15, 1992. For the past two years the house has had two house numbers and the county is willing to grant an additional license with permission from the City of Prior Lake. The reason that we would like to obtain an additional license is to be able to better serve the community. We are continually receiving phone calls to provide care for children, however at this point we are unable to enroll any additional children because of our limited license capacity.
