MINUTES Planning Commission August 11, 1988 Movers Kane stated that the Marketplace would like to go on record as being Warehouse concerned that the new sign requested by Movers Warehouse will block CUP the visibility of the Marketplace sign. (Cont.) R &S Automotive Mr. Costa recommended approval of the conditional use permit requested by Movers Warehouse for a second free- standing sign on their property. Motion seconded by DeLonais. Motion carried 5 - 0. Mr. Bob DeBace, representing R & S Automotive, appeared before the Commission requesting PUD approval so that R & S can put an addition onto their building as well as an addition onto the Myers Enterprises building. DeBace reported that the PUD has been recommended by the City Planner as the way to handle this request. DeBace expressed concern with the Planner's recommendation as contained in his August 8, 1988 report that 30 feet of road right -of -way be dedicated by R & S. DeBace pointed out that only 20 feet of right -of -way is required of the Zilge property. DeBace pointed out that by dedicating 30 feet of right -of -way, one of the R & S lots would only have 90 feet of frontage and, therefore, not meet Code requirements. The Planner explained that commercial and industrialroads are required to have 60 feet of right -of -way, however, in this instance there is only room for 50 feet. The Planner pointed out that the current right -of -way is only 40 feet which is too narrow. There is no boulevard room for snow storage. The Planner also explained that by approving a PUD on the property, the City is guaranteeing that the 90 foot lot would be conforming and could be sold some time in the future as a 90 foot lot. R & S suggested that if the road is ever widened that the additional 10 feet of right -of -way be dedicated at that time. The Planner felt the right -of -way should be acquired at this time. The Planner pointed out that the road would not be widened at this time so the additional right -of -way being dedicated would make no difference to the existing situation. DeBace felt it was a hardship to R & S to require 30 feet of right -of -way from their property and only 20 feet from the Zilge property. DeBace pointed out that R & S has worked for a year to obtain an encroachment license from NSP and would like to get moving on the addition since they will lose a tenant if they cannot provide more space. DeBace was also concerned with the Planner's recommendation that R & S eliminate the junk yard within 3 years. DeBace pointed out that R & S is eliminating the junk yard, but felt that it may take longer than 3 Page 2
