ROSEVILLE PLANNING COMMISSION September 8, 1993 Page# 8 Greg VanGompel, representing Boyer Ford, indicated they have been at this location since 1977. He also indicated that with this application, they are trying, over time, to meet the present design standards. Issues discussed included fencing, landscaping, willingness to sell property, opposition from adjacent property owners, the fact that the future zoning is different from what currently exists, traffic generation, noise created by the operation, environmental concerns, and storage of vehicles on the site. Questions raised included if there is time to recoup the investment, are there other uses that could lease the space without a special use permit, and would an interim use permit for three years be more feasible than a special use permit. Citizens Peggy McCarthy, representing Roseville Office Plaza, questioned the parking of vehicles in front of the site, if there would be vehicles for-sale, and if there had been an evaluation of traffic generation. She stated that the current use is not consistent with long range plans and the Planning Commission should strongly consider this fact. She also added that the site needs to be improved sooner than five years. Jim Moeller, representing Arthur Schuster Co., expressed concern about the amount of and location of landscaping proposed, and what type of signage would be provided on the site. Wietecki closed the public hearing. MOTION Thomas moved and Harms seconded a motion to recommend approval of Boyer Ford's request for reconsideration of a special use permit to do bodywork and painting of vehicles in addition to engine repair at 1975 Oakcrest Avenue with the following conditions: 1. That the application be for an interim use permit for a period of 10 years. 2. That staff approve a schedule of improvements to bring the site into compliance. 3. That staff approve a landscape plan with the addition of total screening along the south side of the parking lot.
