<br />As a CUP, the City may require conditions to alleviate any nuisance the business may create.
<br />For example, if a rendering plant were to want to locate in a B-3 district, the City may allow it
<br />conditioned upon limiting it to a small size, such that it would be more practical to locate in the I-
<br />1 Industrial district instead.
<br />Conditional Use Permit:
<br />Big Dipper Creamery will be producing ice cream products (primary use), and will sell packages
<br />of ice cream retail (accessory use). There's anticipated to be 5-10 employees at any given time.
<br />Employee parking is located along the east side, and rear of the building, while customer
<br />parking is in front of the building. The building includes a loading dock, and drive-in warehouse,
<br />which will be renovated to include a commercial kitchen, freezers, and inside storage of trailers.
<br />Big Dipper has no plans to offer dine -in ice cream sales. However, "restaurants" are a permitted
<br />use in the B-3 district. If the applicant chooses to offer dine -in service in the future, this may be
<br />approved administratively as part of building permits (staff would review parking requirements at
<br />that time).
<br />The City Code includes a list of criteria in determining the appropriateness for a CUP (e.g.
<br />Findings of Fact),3 and is included in the Resolution. In summary, that the CUP will be
<br />compatible with surrounding land uses, and not create a nuisance. In doing such, the City
<br />Council/Planning Commission may require certain things. Staff is recommending a condition
<br />that the property owner re -stripe the parking lot because the lines are significantly faded.
