Mr. Lloyd provided relevance via <br />� background of this use, with storage initiated in 2004, a subsequent moratorium on <br />�^ outdoor storage preventing more permanent approval at that time; a temporary Interim <br />�' Use Permit granted, and expiring three (3) years later in 2007, and continued non- <br />iz conforming use by the applicant. <br />i 3 Mr. Lloyd advised that staff was aware of the non-compliance, and had worked with the <br />� � applicant in resolving the non-compliance; and potential external or internal impacts. Mr. <br />i s Lloyd further advised that the Fire Department had no concern with the current outdoor <br />� o storage arrangement, ant that this arrangement was preferred by the applicant; and staff <br />i� concurred with the configuration, beyond the conditions outlined in Section 6 of the staff <br />�8 report related to screening and select areas allowed for display sales as identifed in the <br />�9 site plan. <br />2C Staff recommended approval of the request for a CONDITIONAL USE for RECO Real <br />z� Estate, LLC and Boater's Outlet to allow the outdoor storage of boats at 1705 County <br />22 Road C; based on the comments and findings of Sections 4 and 5 and the conditions of <br />2.3 Section 6 of the staff report dated October 07, 2009. <br />2= Commissioners expressed concern with the status of the expired Interim Use Permit and <br />?s other potential expirations and how staff could monitor timelines for their expiration. <br />2s Staff noted that some Interim Use Permits were temporary in nature and had ceased; and <br />z� any remaining IUP's were minimal in number (i.e., Meritex Trucking site); with others <br />2v subject to periodic review and renewal (i.e., multiple State Fair Park and Ride sites); <br />%� applicable legal issues for the City, with the applicant responsible in making application to <br />,., the City for any extensions; and no administrative extensions in place under current City <br />s' Code for the City to extend IUP's. <br />3? Commissioners expressed concern that there was not a better process in place to monitor <br />s3 those expired IUP's, opining that this was not in the best interest of the City. <br />3= Staff assured Commissioners that there was newer computer technology now in place to <br />3� allow staff to maintain an up-to-date calendar system to allow tracking of land uses, <br />36 beyond institutional memory, and to avoid similar situations in the future. <br />s� Commissioners, by consensus, encouraged staff to maintain suffcient communication <br />3s with property owners and applicants that will provide monitoring of expiration dates. <br />s i Specific to this request, discussion included use of other portions of the site for outdoor <br />a; storage of school buses; staffs identifcation of this as a pre-existing use, outside the <br />a' purview of this request, with no ability by the City to require additional standards (i.e., <br />a? screening) unless the property owner sought to make improvements on the lot; and <br />a3 adjoining properties being industrial in nature, similar to the subject parcel, with Boaters <br />�a Outlet being one (1) tenant on the property. <br />a5 Further discussion included type of storage exclusive to boats and boat trailers, but <br />a6 excluding recreational vehicles and/or semi-trailer storage. <br />n i Mr. Lloyd advised that no applicant representatives were in attendance at tonight's <br />n3 meeting; and further advised that staff had received no written or verbal communication at <br />ay the staff level related to public notice of tonighYs hearing on this case. <br />5� With no one appearing to speak for or against, Chair poherty closed the Public Hearing <br />5' for Case #09-025 at 7:45 p.m. <br />Page 1 of 2 <br />�. ,-. <br />
