John Muller, 7750 Silver Lake Road, stated, as the previous manager of the apartment building i at that location, he had gone through much difficulty to attempt to erect a sign in front of the building. He stated that, as they were not permitted to do this, he did not think the applicant should be allowed to place signs all over the site, and that he thought it would look gaudy. He stated the extra traffic and noise would cause further problems, adding that it was already bad enough. Ms. Olson asked if the conditional use permit would be ongoing, or if it would be requested every year. Mayor Coughlin stated that it would be renewed automatically, unless it was the Council's desire to do otherwise or the applicant was in violation of the conditional use permit, which would require it come back before the Council. Ms. Olson inquired regarding the duration of the operation. Ericson stated that the applicant was requesting to operate between July 1 and October 31. Ms. Olson requested clarification of the structure, and its location upon the site. Ericson stated that the applicant was proposing to place it at the north corner of the lot, at the intersection of Silver Lake Road and Highway 10, near the existing Holiday sign. He stated that the structure would be some type of tent, with folding tables underneath the tent. He stated that this would just be a simple enclosure. He added that the City had an easement at that location, on which to place a gateway monument marker, and in the event that the City decided to go forward with that project, the applicant would re-locate the stand elsewhere on the site. Ms. Olson requested, in light of its visibility from the highway, the Council consider a different type of structure, or other placement on the site. Mayor Coughlin closed the Public Hearing at 8:10 p.m. Council Member Stigney stated that this item had been discussed thoroughly by the Planning Commission, and that as long as the structure was aesthetically pleasing, and there were no problems associated with the operation he had was in favor of it. He stated that, as a function of the conditional use permit, these matters, as well as the noise and traffic issues, could come back before the Council at any time. MOTION/SECOND: Quick/Stigney.
