MINUTES PLANNING COMMISSION JULY 8, 1999 at the rear of the property prevents the building from being added onto. That easement exists until the year 2003. The City Planner indicated that setbacks are measured from the property line, and not the easement line. Therefore, it appeared there was adequate room to add on to the building. Ducharme also indicated that should he add on to the building, Codes would require it to be sprinklered. Ducharme indicated that he needs the storage area provided by these semi - trailers. Ducharme stated that these trailers are road - ready. Keis pointed out that it is difficult to get at these trailers with all the junk laying around them. Ducharme indicated that he is in the process of cleaning up this area. Ducharme stated that if he stored the materials in the trailers inside the building, he would lose any extra room he might have in the building. Keis suggested that a solution would be to construct a storage shed. It was suggested that Ducharme check with the Building Inspector to determine if this could be done without triggering sprinklering requirements. The Zoning Administrator pointed out that constructing a shed on the property may eliminate the area proposed as a principal storage use. Montour pointed out that the fenced storage area is for the Valento business and has nothing to do with Burr Technologies. Montour suggested that perhaps the Valento business needs to relocate to give Burr adequate room on the site. Duray pointed out that the Commission must treat the semi - trailer use in the same manner as was done earlier this evening. Keis indicated that if Burr Technologies needs additional storage area, they will have to either add on to the building or construct a storage shed. The semi - trailers will have to be removed. Eliminating the principal storage use on the property will free up room on this site. Keis asked if parking requirements would be reduced if the principal storage use was eliminated. The Zoning Administrator replied that parking requirements would remain the same. Page 137
