• Chair Mountin directed Staff to review the code for
possible revisions to allow continuing non-conformance

addition.
Ms. Hren reviewed the request of the applicant 9. Consideration
for site plan approval for their building expansion of Resolution
and for a variance from the surfacing requirements No. 294-90
for parking lots and curbing requirements. The Regarding Site

the applicant, is proposing a 6, 000 square foot Request by
addition onto their building, on the west side. Dynex Indus-
tries, Inc. ,
Dennis Soehl, representing Dynex Industries, Inc. , 4751 Mustang
reviewed the planned expansion and further explained Circle,
their plans for expansion again in 1993. They are Planning Case
requesting a variance from the surfacing requirements No. 302-90
so they do not have to rip up the blacktop in three
years when they continue. They propose using
crushed rock, with interlocking curbing which could
be taken down and moved.
Chair Mountin noted the Planning Commission had
• received a similar request not too long ago, and
had approved a plan for staging . She reviewed
the criteria for granting a variance and suggested
the Planning Commission could address staging
requirements, rather than a variance, as a variance
would stay with the property forever.
Mr . Soehl clarified that crushed rock is already
in the area in question, and they are requesting
to be allowed to leave it to the north of the
building because of the planned 1993 addition.
Chair Mountin noted a variance is needed because
when the building is constructed, they need to
bring the property up to code. However, they
would only have one year to begin construction,
and she questioned whether they would have to
renew yearly. She suggested addressing the pro-
posal as a PUD, and she explained the PUD process.
and the steps to be followed.
Motion/Second: Jones/Miller to table this item to
the agenda session immediately following this meeting.
