Planning & Zoning Board May 9, 2001 Page 6 • Chair Schaps asked if neighbors have voiced objections. Mr. Lawrence stated they are not aware of any objections. • Ms. Lane asked if the semitrucks will idle all night. Mr. Lawrence stated they have plug - ins so the trucks will not be idling all night. Mr. Corson made a MOTION to close the public hearing at 6:51 p.m., and was supported by Mr. Lyden. Motion carried 5 -0. Mr. Lyden stated he understands that this is an appropriate use for this Industrially zoned property; however, it is his opinion that it is not good to have semitrucks using the same streets that the neighborhoods use. He asked about point #5 and whether this is a legitimate concern. Mr. Powell stated this road is a collector County street and does not go through the neighborhood. He noted this lot was used by a previous trucking /hauling firm and there were no significant problems with that prior use. He stated staff anticipates no conflict with the proposed use. Mr. Lyden stated it is his personal opinion that the Lake Drive corridor is where families live and there are large acreage parcels on the east side of the City for commercial service areas that would not result in a mixed use situation. Mr. Corson asked if an annual review of this conditional use permit would be appropriate or if it could be reviewed should problems occur Mr. Powell stated conditional use permits run with the property but it is staffs intent to review them annually. He noted that conditions can be placed on the approval and if the conditions are violated, revocation could result. Ms. Lane made a MOTION to recommend approval of a conditional use permit to allow the operation of a Truck Freight Transfer Service Station on the property located at 416 Lilac Drive, based on the findings contained in the staff report and subject to the following conditions. 1. All drainage plans are subject to the review and approval of the City Engineer. 2. The site's perimeter fence must comply with the performance standards outlined in Section 3, Subdivision 4.S. 3. All signage must comply with the City Sign Ordinance. 4. This site must comply with all applicable or unmet conditions outlined in the September 25, 2000 staff report for Central Suburban, Inc. 5. The trucks will not be allowed to idle when not in use or between the hours of 6:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. • The motion was supported by Mr. Corson.
