The applicant has also included a letter from one of the building tenants who has been identified as one who has raised some of the previous issues with capacity and organization of the site — namely, too many cars cluttering the property in an unorganized fashion. That tenant indicates that they will take steps to manage their use of the property to avoid the previous concerns and comply with the terms of the City's regulations. While this does not specifically address the number of vehicles, the site appears to have reasonable capacity if property maintained and the regulations are observed. If this is done, there should be room to provide the off -site storage for the neighboring business as proposed. Since the off-site storage is an Interim Use Permit, it will run for a period of years and expire, after which the applicant and operator will need to apply for a new IUP. In addition, each party will need to apply for and demonstrate compliance to qualify for the annual licenses required for this use Summary and Recommendation With the site plan and representations provided by the applicant, the CUP and IUP may be approved, subject to ongoing compliance with the terms of the code, and continued qualification for the annual licensing. If those terms are not met, and the license falters, the applicant would be in violation of both licensing and zoning regulations affecting the use. As such, staff would recommend approval, consistent with the Planning Commission recommendation, subject to ongoing demonstration that the site is not over - capacity, that the parking on the site is done in an orderly and proper manner according to the zoning ordinance, and that the storage areas are utilized in a way that meets both the zoning regulations and the requirements of the Fire Code for access. pc: Kathy Glanzer Steve Westerhaus Lee Elfering 3
