Summary
The council granted a Conditional Use Permit to Hidalgo Investments LLC to convert a commercial building at 144 Central Ave into eight residential units subject to conditions on parking, water-service sizing, sewer inspection and permit revocation rules; resolution passed with Kreemer recorded as abstaining.
The Long Prairie City Council approved a Conditional Use Permit for Hidalgo Investments LLC to convert 144 Central Ave into eight residential units. The CUP (Resolution 25-02-12-09) requires a minimum of eight on-site parking spaces, proper sizing or replacement of the water service line at the owner’s expense, televising the sanitary sewer service for review, and sign-off from the City Engineer and Building Official on final designs. The motion passed (Roll Call: Perez-Yes, Kreemer-Abstain, Gripne-Yes, Krueger-Yes, Schroeder-Yes).
Council minutes state the parcel is in the C-1 zoning district and cited findings that the proposed use is compatible with the comprehensive plan and zoning. Conditions include maintaining at least eight parking spaces on site, protecting city water meters from freeze damage, and potential revocation of the CUP for violations; a one-year voiding clause applies if the permit is not used within a year.
