AGENDA 1T. M 5C STAFF ORIGINATOR: Mary Kay Wyland DATE: September 27, 1999 TOPIC: Oasis Market/Amoco, 7509 Lake Drive, Amended Conditional Use Permit VOTE REQUIRED: Simple Majority BACKGROUND: City Staff has been working with the owners of the Oasis Market for several weeks to resolve issues concerning this Amended Conditional Use Permit. Those issues involved lighting, ponding, parking of tractor /trailer units, and additional landscaping on the southerly side of the property. Staff would comment on these items as follows: 1. The lighting fixtures have been diffused under the canopy area and the south side area lights. We have not, however, received a lighting schematic indicating the candle power of these diffused units. 2. The ponding area bas been surveyed by Metro Land Surveying & Engineering. they have provided a letter to the City indicating that the total volume of the pond is larger than originally proposed. Staff would require submittal of a large scale plan for review and approval by the City Engineer. 3. Parking of truck/tractor units: a. Parking of truck/tractor units has been discussed at previous Council Work Sessions with questions raised concerning enforcement. The City Attorney has advised staff that we can not prohibit the parking of these vehicles without adopting an ordinance, applicable to the general populace, that would prohibit such parking. Should an ordinance be adopted the Police could ticket the individual truckers for violations. b. As an alternative, the City Attorney has indicated that we can limit the number of parking spaces, restrict the hours of parking and prohibit parking vehicles with running refrigeration units as a condition of the Amended CUP. The permit holder is responsible for meeting the conditions of the permit. To enforce them, the City could revoke the CUP. Revocation would shut down the business.
