Council approves conditional‑use permit for Hibbing public safety building
Summary
Hibbing City Council voted to approve a conditional‑use permit allowing construction of a public safety building to house police and fire operations in an R‑1 zoning district; the planning commission had recommended approval.
The Hibbing City Council on May 7 approved a conditional‑use permit allowing the construction of a public safety building that will house the city’s police and fire departments on a parcel in an R‑1 zoning district.
Planning staff told the council the applicant met the minimum criteria for the R‑1 zone and that the Planning Commission recommended approval following the May 5 hearing. “The building will house police and fire department use in the R1 Zoning District,” said Mr. Green, the planning official who presented the commission’s recommendation. The council voted to approve the permit by voice vote.
No amendments, additional conditions, or dissent were recorded during the council’s motion. The approval allows the city to proceed with site and building planning under the conditional‑use framework required by the zoning ordinance; further permitting and design approvals remain subject to applicable land‑use regulations and staff review.
