5.5 Staffhas concluded that the existingparking lot contains adequatepaved surface to properly provide the required number of parking spaces. The structure has been estimated to contain 2,400 sq. ft., which requires 12 on-site parking spaces. Parking spaces shall be applied as follows; 6 spaces for employees, 6 spaces for customers, and 1 space for each leasable vehicle on display, which varies day to day and on weekends. REVIEW of CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT: 5.6 Section 1013.01 requires the City to consider the following criteriawhen reviewing a Conditional Use Permit: a Impact on traffic b. Impacts on parks, streets and other public facilities c. Compatibilityof the site plan, internal circulation, landscaping and structurewith contiguous properties d. Impact of the use on market value of contiguous properties e. Impact on the general public health, safety and welfare f. Compatibilitywith the City's ComprehensivePlan 5.7 The City Planner has reviewed the proposed reuse of the premises and concluded the proposal of a small vehicle rental and leasing business is a permitted use in a B-3 District, with an approved Conditional Use Permit. The proposed use will not create significant additional traffic on the County Road D or Old Highway 8. County Road D had a 2000 count of 24,000 and is projected to increase to 28,550 by 2020 and Old Highway 8 had a 2000 count of 3,350 and is projected to increase to 5,350 by 2020. There is no need for additionalpublic utilities or facilities, which already have capacity for the proposed use. The elimination of the eastern most access along County Road D will create more suitable vehicle circulation and with proper exterior building treatment, landscaping, and parking lot improvements, the building/site will not have an impact on surrounding properiy or values. There appears to be no impact on general health, safety, and public welfare. In addition, the proj ect complies with the Comprehensive Plan designation as a business use. 5.8 This reuse project will require a buildingpermit and an inspectionby the Fire Marshal and Building Official. The proposed reuse will also require the submittal of improvement plans including site, landscape, lighting and signage, which plans must be reviewed and approved by the Development Review Committee prior to the issuance of a building permit. 5.9 The properiy owner must submit documentation that petroleum tanks have been removed as per Minnesota Pollution Control Agency regulations.
