PLANNING & ZONING BOARD MAY 8, 1996 Mr. Kelley asked what conditions will play a big role in determining whether or not golf is a permitted use. Chair Schaps responded that at the public hearing staff will draft provisional language adding a golf range or mini golf facility as a permitted use to the RBR zoning district. The amendment will be published throughout the City. Residents will have an opportunity to come forward and state any objections. Typically, there is little response. Mr. Dunn asked what protection there is for the City if the golf range is later abandoned. Ms. Wyland stated that a condition of the permit could include a provision that all equipment items relating to the golf range be removed by the property owner within a year of closing, or the City will do so and assess the property. Mr. Kelley asked what would happen if he resold the property. Mr. Gelbmann responded that if the property is sold and the golf range use continues, removal of the equipment would not be necessary. Mr. Johnson added that a time lapse would be allowed for resale of the property. If the business is ceased for a period of greater than a year, the equipment would have to be removed. Mr. Gelbmann made a MOTION to approve the site plan review with the following conditions: 1. Proper building permits be obtained prior to any construction. A deposit equal to 1 percent of construction costs shall be posted to insure completion of site improvements. 2. The driveway and parking area be provided with a dustless surface approved by the City Engineer. 3. Lighting standards be of the type to provide minimum disruption to the adjoining property owners as determined by the City. 4. The sanitation facilities be located inside the club house/garage area. If this is not possible, screening be provided to adequately screen the facilities from the street right-of-way and adjoining properties. This screening shall be subject to the review of the City Forester and/or Community Service Officer. 5. A landscaping plan shall be provided and reviewed by the City Forester. 10
