MINUTES CITY COUNCIL MAY 22, 2019 his grandfathered status, which is more than 60 percent of the site. She explained that the variance approval would lapse if it was not put in use. Fischer asked the applicant why they want 36 months to construct a building. Russ Holm, On -Site Sanitation, stated that he wants three years just to be on the safe side since there are still things that must be completed. He noted he wants to start sooner, but they still have to purchase the property and Buck Blacktop needs to move out which will take some time since they are still finishing up two years of work. Montour asked if both Buck Blacktop and On -Site would own the property. Mr. Holm stated he would own the property and Buck Blacktop would be utilizing the site. Keis asked if Mr. Erdmanis' outdoor storage amount would go down to 60 percent after On -Site purchases the property. The Associate Planner explained that depending on what the Council decides tonight, then staff would work with the applicant to determine how the interim use permit would be spelled out; who would be using it, how much does Mr. Erdmanis need. She stated that the I-P District does not allow rental outdoor storage, so there are a lot of things that staff needs to better understand, and the Council can determine what conditions they will allow in the interim use permit. Keis asked what the site currently looks like since Mr. Erdmanis has been working on removing equipment for a few years, and is the site in compliance with the agreement. The Associate Planner stated she has not inspected the site this year. Uldis Erdmanis, owner of 32 South Owasso Boulevard West, stated that he is in compliance with his outdoor storage requirements that were agreed on in 2016. He noted that he has to continue to reduce the amount of equipment so that this plan can work. Fischer asked Mr. Erdmanis if this went forward, could he have his current work completed and get his equipment moved out. Mr. Erdmanis stated that he would have to keep reducing his equipment and only keep what pieces he needs to complete his projects, but they can work it out between theirs so he stays out of On -Site's way. He noted that some of the construction materials on the site are suitable and can stay be used for the redevelopment of the site. Fischer stated that there seems to be issues associated with the owner and tenant relationship. The Associate Planner explained that is what will need to be included in the text amendment for an interim use permit. Mr. Holm, owner of On -Site Sanitation, gave an overview of the On -Site Companies business information. He reported that the Planning Commission agreed that 60 percent of the lot for outdoor storage was a reasonable use of this property. He stated that the railroad runs along the rear of the property. He showed a photo of his current building at 95 0
