The lot in question, 2159 Mustang Drive, is zoned I-1, Industrial. <br /> <br />2. The Future Land Use Map from the City’s Comprehensive Plan designates <br />this area as Light Industrial. <br /> <br />3. Bauer Welding is within the City’s industrial park and as such, outdoor storage <br />is not out of character for the surrounding area and the storage area driveway <br />is not visible from the street. <br /> <br />4. The applicant has sufficiently demonstrated that the gravel driveway is not <br />causing problems with surrounding properties, as it has been in the current <br />condition for seven years and the City has not received any complaints.
