8478 Long Lake Road CUP Request <br />May 28, 2013 <br />Page 3 <br />Planning Commission Action: <br />The Planning Commission reviewed this request on May 15, 2013 and voted 5-0 (Carvelli-Yu <br />and Love absent) to recommend approval with additional conditions. The Commission added <br />that the applicant should install a minimum 6 -foot tall privacy fence along the west side of the <br />backyard and a driveway from the existing driveway to the new garage. <br />Public Comments: <br />Staff has received two phone calls from residents who are immediately adjacent to the <br />applicant's backyard. Both callers indicated they were not in favor of the garage and had <br />almost the same comments: they don't want changes to the neighborhood, they don't like the <br />stuff the applicant has in the yard (trailers and extra window, etc), they don't understand why <br />he needs more than the garage he already has, they don't want to look at a barn, they like the <br />wooded areas, and don't want to lose the use of their backyards. One of the residents <br />indicated they would be attending the City Council meeting. <br />Recommendation: <br />Hold the Public Hearing, then after taking testimony from staff, the applicant and affected <br />neighbors, the Council may take one of the following actions below related to the request. <br />Staff recommends approval of this conditional use permit. <br />1. Approve the CUP as requested. Staff has prepared Resolution 8106 that approves <br />the conditional use permit if the Council chooses this action. <br />2. Choose to deny the conditional use permit. If the Council chooses this option, Staff <br />would need direction from the City Council to prepare a resolution of denial with findings of <br />fact to support the denial. <br />3. Table the request. If the City Council needs more information before making a decision <br />or if they decide that there is need for more discussion, the Council can simply move to table <br />the request until such information has been provided. Because of 60 -day requirements, the <br />Council would need to act upon the request as soon as reasonably possible to avoid an <br />inadvertent approval. <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />Q,Hd&4--� <br />Heidi Heller <br />Planning Associate <br />Attachments: <br />1. <br />Zoning Map <br />2. <br />Aerial View <br />3. <br />Site Plan <br />4.Photos <br />5. <br />Resolution 8106 <br />
