Recognizing Life Care Animal Hospital for Heroism and Excellence in Service
This week, City Council passed a resolution recognizing the emergency life-saving service provided by Life Care Animal Hospital (1328 White Bear Ave).
On Tuesday, September 27th, 2022, officers responded to a incident with two gunshot victims -- a person and a dog -- on White Bear Ave. The person was rushed to the hospital for treatment, while the dog was carried across the street to Life Care Animal Hospital.
The dedicated staff at Life Care Animal Hospital, including Dr. Amanda Mickelson, Rhonda Morrison, Lisa Anderson, and all the client services and clinical teams on staff, immediately triaged, assessed, stabilized, ran cranial x-rays, performed all treatments, and prescribed all the essential medications for the pup.
Life Care Animal Hospital of St. Paul is committed to treating every pet as if it were their own, working to ensure all animals who come to them are happy and healthy in the long haul.
The Saint Paul City Council honors and recognizes Life Care Animal Hospital of St. Paul and their entire team for 27 years of dedicated service and commitment to all animals and veterinary excellence.
Improvements to “Class N” Business License Application Process
As of December 19th, 2022, there are new improvements to the application process for Class N Business Licenses! Key changes to the Class N License process include:
- Requires Class N License applicants to provide District Councils with their business proposal prior to submitting their application to the city.
- Elimination of petition requirements for Class N Licenses.
- Reduces the overall Class N License application review process by approximately 30 days.
- Provides more user-friendly ordinance language.
Businesses requiring a Class N License include parking ramps, auto-related, health clubs, massage centers, alcohol establishments, gambling locations, tobacco retailers, entertainment venues, and rental halls.
This effort is to make licensing more user-friendly for staff and community members as well as highlight the city’s priority of “Open for Business.” This new process reflects business owners’ concerns about the length of time it takes to obtain certain business licenses, as well as the community’s interest in being involved earlier in business licensing conversations. A stakeholder workgroup reaffirmed these points and worked with the city to develop a better application process for Class N Business Licenses.
