5.0 STAFF COMMENTS: 5.1 The property (6 multi-tenant lots/structures) located at 2974 — 2982 Cleveland Avenue is zoned I-1, Light Industrial and is guided through the Comprehensive Plan as BP, Business Park and the 2001 Twin Lakes Master Plan. 5.2 Motor vehicle dealerships are permitted through the CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT process within the I-1, Light Industrial zoning district. However, because the proposed use of the site is for a temporary duration, not to exceed 13 months, the Planning Staff has determined that an INTERIM USE PERMIT is most applicable. 5.3 Access to the site is provided from Cleveland Avenue. The inclusion of an auto service facility within one of the multi-tenant spaces will not dramatically increase nor impact the flow of vehicles on Cleveland Avenue or those vehicles entering/exiting the subject site. 5.4 The applicant is interested in establishing up to 11 service bays inside the available tenant space at 2980 Cleveland Avenue, where access will be provided from the rear dock area. Service representatives will shuttle vehicles from the existing site to the temporary site to eliminate customer conflicts. 5.5 Current parking of vehicles occurs at the front (north and south of access drive) and rear (adjacent dock bay) of the building. It is anticipated that employees will park north of the service drive and that shuttled vehicles will either be within structure at a service bay or parked in the rear or in the front of the building as they await service. The temporary parking of vehicles within designated parking areas will have not impact on the parking needs of the remaining tenants within the structure. 5.6 The proposed INTERIM USE of the property for temporary auto service/repair will not have an adverse impact on the market value of contiguous properties. 5.7 The proposed INTERIM USE of the property for temporary auto service/repair will not have an impact on parks, streets, and/or other public facilities. 5.8 The proposed INTERIM USE of the property for temporary auto service/repair will not have an adverse impact on the general public health, safety, and welfare. 6.0 STAFF RECOMMENDATION: 6.1 The Community Development Staff recommends APPROVAL of the INTERIM USE PERMIT based on the comments/findings of Section 5 of the project report dated November 13, 2006, subject to the following conditions (as modified by the Planning Commission on November 1, 2006): PF3793_RCA_111306.doc\ Page 3 of 4
