RE: 3134 Northwood Special Use Permit. Case File: ZBA-15-08
Dear Ms. Cornwell:
Thank you for submitting your Special Use Permit Application to Change to Another Non-
Conforming Use to add a small coffee shop/sit-down restaurant to your flowers and gift shop
business at 3134 Northwood Drive. We have reviewed the application and materials you submitted
on April 3, 2015 and have deemed the application to be complete.
This item will be placed on the May 13 agenda of the Zoning Board of Adjustment (ZBA). The
meeting will take place at 7:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers of City Hall at 515 Clark Avenue.
Ray Anderson will be the case planner, who will determine if any additional information is needed,
and will likely contact you next week to discuss your application. The case planner will prepare a
report and a departmental recommendation to be included in the ZBA's pre-meeting packet.
Notification of your application will be sent to property owners within 200 feet, approximately 12
days prior to the meeting. A sign will be posted on the property and notice published in the
newspaper, eight days prior to the meeting. A copy of the ZBA's packet will be mailed to you on
the Friday before the meeting. You or your representative should plan to be present at the meeting.
Please advise us as soon as possible if the April 22 date is unworkable for you.
Thank you for seeking compliance with Ames' Zoning Ordinance. Please contact me if you have
any questions.
