Both the Watershed and the City included surface water plan requirements in the <br />review of all projects. <br />Staff presented the findings that must be made for consideration of a conditional use <br />permit. Staff recommended finding that the project met those requirements. <br />Staff noted that in addition to those general findings, a CUP for a concrete product plant <br />must include the provisions detailed in Sec. 8 Subd. 2.I.9. Staff believed these provisions <br />were addressed in the recommended conditions of approval. <br />Staff noted the list contained in the report which included specific conditions and then <br />specified which permit and/or approval it applied to.
