MINUTES PLANNING COMMISSION MAY 8, 2008 Duray asked about fence height. The City Planner indicated that there were no concerns with the fence and noted that there will be landscaping along the fence for screening. The fence provides security and the landscaping provides screening. The City Planner also recommended that submission of a final landscape plan be added as a condition of approval. With regard to the need for more detail about the storage, the Planner indicated that the goal is not to restrict the applicant to certain items of storage, but rather to location and size of storage. The Planner recommended that any approvals be subject to submission of a site plan adding details relative to outdoor storage location and size. Barraclough recommended approval of the Amendment to a Conditional Use Permit for outdoor storage providing for amended site plan, product display areas, and site improvements for 3101 Spruce Street as requested by Lee Rossow subject to compliance with the following: • The recommendations of the City Planner as outlined in his report dated May 2, 2008; • Submission of an approved final landscape plan; • Submission of an approved site plan containing specificity relative to outdoor storage locations and sizes. Motion seconded by Pechmann. Motion carried 5 - 0.

The Planner noted that in addition to the staff report, the Code Enforcement Officer has submitted a report which includes photos of the site and storage located on the property in advance of the permit. The Code Enforcement Officer is concerned about the storage of damaged, inoperable vehicles on the site. The Planner noted that one of the conditions of the new regulations is that there will be no storage of inoperable vehicles allowed. The Planner indicated that he and the Code Enforcement Officer met with Auto Rescue, one of the tenants of the site, this afternoon to discuss their storage needs.
