Since we have moved to the property last year we have been making plans to expand the innkeepers living quarters. During this planning stage we have also had time meet and talk with many of our guests and potentional guests to get their input into what they feel would be a good addition to the Manor. We have also taken time to look at what our needs with this business are. The number one item would be to increase the number of guest rooms, to be able to accommodate the number of requests we get from people coming out to enjoy the Valley. We have also had many requests from groups looking for a secluded place to hold meetings and retreats. To be able to host these groups, we would need more rooms and a larger meeting area. Our personal needs are to add a three bedroom living quarters, and expand the business to be able finance this expansion. We have talked with neighbors to get their feelings about this rezoning and have found nothing but support. Enclosed is a petition signed by many of the affected neighbors. Enclosed you will find the following: • Explanation of the project and our request. • Development application. • Copy of the petition. • Property Tax statement. • Parcel search and mailing list. • A check for $1400, $400 for base fee and $1,000 for the escrow account. We look forward to working with you in the realization of this exciting project. Sincerely, r .___ uck & Judy Dougherty • • the covcR pARk (DANOR pRojcc'C Our goal is to create a relaxing country manor that can accommodate the tourist travelers' needs and also the needs of the small meetings and retreat business from our area and the Twin Cities' market. We are proposing to add an addition of guest suites, meeting rooms and larger Innkeeper's quarters to the existing Cover Park Manor Bed & Breakfast. The new structure would match building type and style of the existing Inn. Specifically as follows: Guestrooms: There would be five new guest suites on the second floor of the addition. We would also be reconfiguring the rooms in the existing house to change that number of rooms from four to five. This would then give us a total of ten rooms at the Manor. Conference space: The first floor of the new addition would be a meeting room(s) with a total space of approximately 1350 square feet. This could be used as one large room or divided in half by use of an airwall. We will be installing a commercial kitchen, add a small breakfast room and a lounge type room that could be used as additional meeting rooms or a social room for the guests. Private living quarters for Innkeeper: There would also be an addition of a three bedroom private living area for the owner / innkeeper. • 1 The following are items from our conversations with Kris Danielson and Scott Richards that we would request the city take action on: 1. The creation of a Bed and Breakfast zone. It is our understanding that the best way to handle our property would be to create a new Bed and Breakfast / R -1 zone and then rezone our property and the NSP property to the west to this new zone. We would like to work with the city staff on the creation of this new zoning ordinance and then have our property and the NSP property rezoned to this new zone. 2. It is our understanding that the City has a program for special assessment for earthwork and below grade foundation and cement work. We would like to apply for this program with construction of our addition. 3. We would also be interested in exploring any other financing assistance that may be available through the city government, if there is any. 4. We would like to secure a wine, beer, liquor license for our operation. 5. We have an agreement of right of first refusal with NSP (Excel Energy) to purchase the land directly to the west of our property. The rezoning also applied to that property. 6. All new construction will match the building type and style of the existing manor and will be within the requirements of building ordinances governing this type of construction and zone. • • i would be in favor of rezoning the Dougherty's property at 1 5330 58 St N. and the NSP property directly to the west of their property to a new RI / Bed and Breakfast type zone. I understand that the Chuck and Judy Dougherty would like to expand their existing bed & breakfast to ten guestrooms and also be able to host small meetings.
