8 <br /> 1 The Commission representative reported the Commissioners were in <br /> 2 agreement that making this a conditionally permitted use would give <br /> 3 the City more control over the activities carried on in this or <br /> 4 similar operations in the City in the future. Mr. Kuelbs was <br /> 5 accompanied by his son, Kevin Kuelbs, who is in business with his <br /> 6 father in Savage and both answered questions about the proposed <br /> 7 facility. <br /> 8 Kevin Kuelbs responded to Councilmember Makowske's concerns about <br /> 9 having a lot of motorcycles roaring around the new Kenzington. He <br /> 10 stated that most of their customers are previous Harley-Davidson <br /> 11 owners who are checking out the new models and he expected only an <br /> 12 average of three or four of these a day would want a test ride. He <br /> 13 said that the dealership owners don't push testing because they're <br /> 14 naturally leery about putting $10,000 or $12 , 000 investments out on <br /> 15 the highway without good cause. He also indicated that contrary to <br /> 16 what some people think, the average age of a Harley-Davidson owner <br /> 17 is 34 . <br /> 18 Mr. Childs explained that the ordinance amendment had to be given two <br /> 19 more readings by the Council and during that time period, the <br /> 20 conditional use permit application could be presented to the Planning <br /> 21 Commission for their recommendations related to conditions under ' <br /> 22 which the Kuelbs' proposal could be approved. If the Commission <br /> 23 recommends approval , the Council can act on their recommendation at <br /> 24 the same meeting as they give the third reading and adopt the <br /> 25 ordinance. <br /> 26 Council Action <br /> 27 Motion by Marks, seconded by Enrooth to approve the first reading of <br /> 28 the ordinance amendment which adds "Motorcycle' sales and accessories" <br /> 29 as a "conditionally permitted use" in a "C" General Commercial <br /> 30 District, in accordance with the recommendations of the Planning <br /> 31 Commission. <br /> 32 ORDINANCE 1988-007 <br /> 33 AN ORDINANCE RELATING TO ZONING; <br /> 34 AMENDING ORDINANCE 1976-006 <br /> 35 Notion carried unanimously. <br /> 36 Change in Definition of "Shopping Center" Approved for Sign Ordinance <br />
