Mermaid iUP Report <br />Page 3 <br />Summary: <br />The Mermaid has installed the tent in previous years without any issue from a zoning <br />perspective while satisfying all of the ordinance and code requirements. City staff believes the <br />City could approve the request for the same five year time period as has been done in the <br />past, as the owner and operator satisfy all the annual conditions. Due to the new ownership, <br />the Planning Commission may want to consider a shorter time period to make sure there are <br />no problems. The Anderson Companies are not new to owning this type of business and City <br />Staff does not anticipate any issues with their use of the tent at the Mermaid. <br />Recommendation: <br />Review the request for the Interim Use Permit to allow an outdoor temporary membrane <br />structure in the courtyard area at the Mermaid Entertainment and Event Center. <br />Staff is recommending approval of Resolution 937-11, which is attached for your <br />consideration. If the Commission needs more information before taking action, the <br />Commission may table the request pending receipt of the information. <br />Heidi Heller <br />Planning Associate <br />This is a photo of the tent framework without the membrane cover <br />
