Part of this property is used for semi <br />23 trailer parking, and the remainder of the site remains vacant. <br />24 This request for CoND�T�otvAL usE approval has been prompted by the need for outdoor stockpiles <br />25 of the aggregate inputs for asphalt processing, and heavy equipment to move it. Asphalt <br />26 processing itself is a permitted manufacturing use in the I-2 District. <br />27 Such applications were formerly referred to as conditional use permits, but the word "permit"' is <br />28 being eliminated in an effort to sharpen the distinction between land use approvals and building <br />29 permits. Although this represents a change in terminology, the nature of conditional use <br />30 approvals will remain the same because they never actually involved permits per se. <br />090615 RCA Bituminous Roadway CU <br />Page 1 of 5 <br />
