The subject property is located at 2570 Jackson Street, and is <br />currently owned by Allan & Linda Foster. The applicants have obtained a purchase agreement <br />for the home, contingent upon approval from the City to operate a home occupation, that <br />includes the outdoor storage of a Mateo Tools truck on the property. <br />The proposed home occupation meets all of the conditions required for home businesses, <br />however, the commercial vehicle, which weighs roughly 25,000 lbs., exceeds the City's limit <br />of 12,000 pounds for outside storage of a vehicle or truck within a residential zoning district. <br />Mr. Wahlberg will have an office within the home, store the truck on -site on evenings and <br />weekends, and drive the truck to his customers, and sell the tools off -site. The purpose of <br />storing the truck on -site is due to the potential for vandalism to the truck if stored off -site, and <br />Mr. Wahlberg will store the tools within the home, therefore, loading the truck on -site will be <br />made easier. <br />Attached For Reference: <br />Exhibit A - Site Location <br />Exhibit B - Site Plan <br />Exhibit C - Adjacent Properties <br />Exhibit D - Subject Truck <br />5775 Wayzata Blvd. • Suite 555 • St. Louis Park, MN 55416 • (612) 595- 9636•Fax. 595 -9837 <br />Page 31 <br />
