MINUTES PLANNING COMMISSION JULY 11, 2013 CUP & IUP- John Krebsbach, 3177 Spruce Street, appeared before the Commission 3177 SPRUCE requesting a Conditional Use Permit for outdoor storage and an Interim STREET — Use permit allowing outdoor storage for an off -site tenant (Little Canada KREBSBACH business). The City Planner indicated that the site plan provided shows generally the locations of the outdoor storage. The Planner noted that while outdoor storage is allowed by CUP under several conditions, it is difficult to definitively determine whether these conditions are being met based on the site plan. The Planner indicated that the Commission could either table action on the CUP and IUP requests pending submittal of a detailed site plan, or it could pass the matter on to the Council with City staff working with the applicant prior to the Council meeting to develop a more detailed site plan. Krebsbach reported that he received a CUP for outdoor storage on this property a couple of years ago. He indicated that under this application he is merely replacing one tenant for a new tenant. Krebsbach stated that basically nothing has changed on this property for a very long time. Krebsbach explained the site plan for the Commission showing the area that would fall under the IUP as well as the area that would fall under the CUP. He noted that the IUP storage area would be rented to Blacktop Pro, which is a Little Canada business located across the street. The Planner noted that the change in play is that the designation of the IUP storage area changes the nature of the layout of the property. Duray asked if Krebsbach had any concerns with the recommendations outlined in the Planner's July 51I' report. Krebsbach replied that he did not. There was discussion of the Class V surface in the storage area, with the Planner noting that the Code says this surfacing can be asphalt, concrete, or other material. The Planner noted that Class V is a common material in Ryan Industrial Park. The Planner indicated that staff's preference is to have a detailed site plan which will serve as documentation as to what has been approved. He also noted that the Fire Marshal should review the property to ensure compliance with the Fire Code. The Planner indicated that staff could work with the applicant to develop the necessary site plan. Krebsbach requested that the Commission pass the matter on to the City Council. He indicated that he would contact the Code Enforcement Officer next week to seek her help in developing the appropriate site plan. -3-
