Attachment D included written public comment received to-date and as noted. � Discussion included screening on the site and where it was located in relationship to the other tenants in 8 this multi-tenant facility, with screening only intended for the outdoor boat storage, as the other uses are g not part of the interim use. � o Mr. Paschke opined that, if this area developed, he anticipated it would develop as one large parcel. � � Member Cunningham expressed concern with areas called "display areas," that from her observation did � 2 not seem very well fenced in and visible in the front of the lot when driving by. Since this would not be 13 considered far zoning as an automobile dealership, Member Cunningham questioned why this lot was 14 allowed to have a sales display area for boats. � 5 Mr. Paschke clarified that the display of boats far sale was part of their display, and that the boats were � s not stored for long periods of time, but used as a staging area. 17 Applicant Glenn Kloskin, Owner of Boaters Outlet 18 Mr. Kloskin addressed the area in question, noting that the display area had never really been used for � g display, but only as a landing area to service boats; and noted that they were pulled into the back area 2o every night. Mr. Kloskin suggested that observing them in the display area my mean they were just 21 dropped off and had not yet been driven behind the fence. 22 Member Cunningham sought clarification from Mr. Kloskin that the boats were not sitting there for a 23 number of days. 24 Mr. Kloskin confirmed that they had been delayed in relocating the boats since winter came early and 25 with delivery of a truckload of new boats, they were behind in getting them out of the shrink wrap and 26 inside the storeroom. Mr. Kloskin assured the Commission that this was unusual and apologized that 3 27 or 4 boats had been there for approximately 7 to 10 days, but advised that they will be relocated shortly. 28 Given this situation, Vice Chair Boguszewski asked if this was an anomaly based on the ebb and flow of 2� their business, or if it needed to be addressed as part of this interim use renewal consideration. 3o Mr. Kloskin advised that it would typically happen only twice annually. 3� If this interim permit were not approved, Vice Chair Boguszewski asked Mr. Kloskin if it would limit 32 the ability for him to run his business. s3 Mr. Kloskin responded that it would put him into banktuptcy. 3n Vice Chair Boguszewski asked Mr. Kloskin if he had any plans to alter his business model or practices 35 over the next five years, or if he intended to continue operating as in the past under the current interim 36 use permit.
