ITEM V: PUBLIC HEARING: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AMENDMENT FOR AN
ADAPTIVE REUSE AT 1675 OREGON STREET
GENERAL INFORMATION
Owner/Applicant: Nilla (Dee) Oehlke
Action(s) Requested:
The applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit Amendment for an Adaptive Reuse at 1675
Oregon Street.
Applicable Ordinance Provisions:
Adaptive Reuse land uses are permitted only through a conditional use permit in the
Neighborhood Mixed Use District (NMU) as regulated in Section 30-51 (C) of the Zoning
Ordinance. Criteria used for Conditional Use Permits are located in Section 30-382 of the Zoning
Ordinance.
Property Location and Background Information:
The subject site is located at the northwest corner of West 17th Avenue and Oregon Street. The
subject parcel is about 6,750 sq. ft. in size and includes a residential unit in the upper level and an
art studio in one of the lower level units. The site is surrounded by a mix of single-family and
commercial uses. The site went through Conditional approval for the current art studio in 2019,
while the second lower level unit went through Conditional approval to be converted from a
barber shop to a coffee shop in 2022.

ANALYSIS
Use
The applicant is requesting approval of an Adaptive Reuse through a Conditional Use Permit
(CUP) Amendment to establish a one bedroom apartment in an existing lower level unit that was
previously approved to be a coffee shop. According to the applicant this unit never fully
transitioned into a coffee shop due to financial reasons, and therefore that land use is no longer
being considered.
Mixed use buildings can have no more than 30% of the ground floor for residential uses. The
Adaptive Reuse approval is needed due to the ground floor area, as proposed for a residential use,
is 35%. The existing art studio and upper level apartment are not changing. The parking area on
the property has 10 stalls that can be used for customer parking. There is also street parking
available on Oregon Street and West 17th Avenue. Although a slightly larger residential space for a
mixed use building is proposed for the ground floor, Planning Staff does not have concerns as the
use of the property is compatible with the surrounding commercial and residential uses.
The Inspection Services Department noted that the conversion from a commercial tenant space to
an apartment will likely require a sprinkler system to be installed and that all other building,
HVAC, and plumbing plans will need to be submitted for review and approval prior to building
permit issuance.
Staff is supportive of the Conditional Use Permit (CUP) Amendment for an Adaptive Reuse as the
proposed overall Mixed Use Building is an appropriate use for this site and should have a
relatively low impact on the surrounding area.

RECOMMENDATION/CONDITIONS
In its review and recommendation to the Common Council on an application for a Conditional Use
Permit Amendment, staff recommends the Plan Commission make the following findings based on
the criteria established by Chapter 30-382 (F)(3):
(1) Is in harmony with the Comprehensive Plan.
(2) Would not result in a substantial or undue adverse impact on nearby property, the
character of the neighborhood, environmental factors, traffic factors, parking, public
improvements, public property or rights-of-way, or other matters affecting the public
health, safety, or general welfare.
(3) Maintains the desired consistency of land uses, land use intensities, and land use impacts
as related to the environs of the subject property.
(4) The conditional use is located in an area that will be adequately served by, and will not
impose an undue burden on, any of the improvements, facilities, utilities or services
provided by public or private agencies serving the subject property.
(5) The potential public benefits outweigh any potential adverse impacts of the proposed
conditional use, after taking into consideration the applicant’s proposal and any
requirements recommended by the applicant to ameliorate such impacts.
Staff recommends approval of the proposed Conditional Use Permit Amendment for an Adaptive
Reuse as proposed with the findings listed above.

The Existing Art Studio at 1677 Oregon is to remain as well as the single-unit apartment above the Art
Studio is also to remain. No Change with these to spaces.
The Proposed First Floor Apartment (1675 Oregon) previously was a Barber Shop (which was
transitioning into a coffee shop - but the owner decided against that idea due to financial reasons).
That is about it. Let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.
Thanks Brian !
