RE: 987 Ivy Avenue East, Minnesota Humanities Commission, Stanley E.
Romanstein, President/CEO
Stanley E. Romanstein, Minnesota Humanities Commission, has applied for a Dance or Rental
Hall License. This license is Class N, and neighbors were notified.
I received one letter of objection from Calvin and Jeanne Klawitter of 954 Ivy Avenue East.
Their concerns are twofold: 1) they contend that their neighborhood is very quiet and does not
need a dance halllicense, 2) the Minnesota Humanities Commission's traffic already spills over
into the street, and they wonder what would happen if there were dances held there. The
Klawitters did not want to attend a legislative heazing.
License, Inspections, and Environmental Protection (LIEP) recommends approval of the license
based on the conditions of the Conditional Use Permit which are as follows: 1) The parking
demand for use of the facility for receptions for private parties must not exceed the current
available off-street parking, 2) The use of the facility for receptions far private parties must take
place within the facility building; and 3) No more than 12 such receptions may be held within
one calendar yeaz. LIEP also recommends the following condition, which has been signed by the
applicant: Notify LIEP of any changes in Boazd of Directors, Officers, and Managers.
I believe the above conditions address the parking concerns expressed by the Klawitters. As for
the Klawitters' concern that the dance hall may effect their quiet neighborhood, that concern
must be balanced against the right of the applicant to operate this business. Also, I have no
information beyond the Klawitters' letter that the neighborhood would be adversely effected.
Given all the above, I would recommend that the City Council grant the licence with the
aforementioned conditions.
