CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT - MARCUS CORPORATION
906 -908 Mainstreet
Planning Report: CUP88 -15
Proposed Action.
Staff recommends approval of the following motion: That the
rehabilitation of 906-908 Mainstreet is approved.
This action will allow Marcus Corporation to rehabilitate 906 -908
Mainstreet to office and retail space.
Issues to be Considered.
o Is this renovation consistent with the
redevelopment plans?
Overview.
906 -908 Mainstreet is currently owned by the HRA. Most of this block
was purchased by the HRA in 1984 for redevelopment. Since the
purchase of these buildings, the City has been attempting to redevelop
the entire block. However, attempts to redevelop the whole block as
one project have been unsuccessful so the City now is in the process
of redeveloping each building individually. 906 -908 Mainstreet is the
first building on the block to be rehabilitated. The HRA is selling
the property under a redevelopment agreement. The building is being
renovated under the Downtown Hopkins Design Guidelines which are
enclosed.

DETAILED BACKGROUND.
CUP88 -15
Page 2
Exterior Improvements:
The existing exterior will be renovated. The renovation will consist
of tuck pointing, new windows and replacing the store front. The rear
parking area will be cleaned up.
Interior Improvement:
Most of the work will be interior renovation. The basement, first,
second and third floors will be renovated. The first floor will be
used for retail space. The second floor will be used for office and
the third floor is proposed for office /studio /apartments.
Entrances:
Two new entrances will be added to the building. On the City owned
parking area on the east side an elevator and stair will be added.
The City will provide an easement for this stairway /elevator. A
second stairway will be added to the south side of the property. This
stairway will provide access to the building from the parking area
across the alley.
• City owned parking lot:
Ownership of the lot to the east of the building will be retained by
the HRA. The City has agreed that as long as the lot remains a
parking lot it will be short term parking. The applicant also has an
option for one year to buy this parking area. Future development on
this parking area is restricted by the redevelopment agreement. A
single story building will be allowed on the north end of the lot
while multi -story building will be allowed on the south end.
- Is this renovation consistent with the City's redevelopment plans?
Since the acquisition of the property on this block, the City has been
trying to redevelop the block into retail and office. However,
redevelopment efforts to redevelop the block as a whole have proved
unsuccessful. Renovated retail and office space will provide new
opportunities for both Hopkins and businesses. The renovation will
still allow construction of a building on the parking area to the
east.
Alternatives.
. Approve the Conditionl Use Permit for the renovation of
906 -908 Mainstreet. This would allow Marcus Corporation
to renovate 906 -908 Mainstreet into retail and office.
. Deny the Conditional Use Permit to renovate 906 -908
Mainstreet. If the Commission chooses this option they
will have to state findings of fact that support this
alternative.
3. Continue for further information. If the Commission
feels that more information is needed, the item should be
continued.
