The consultant will <br /> have a detailed recommendation available prior to the next planning <br /> commission meeting. The cost of the proposed installation is anticipated to <br /> be between $40, 000 and $50, 000. <br /> The applicants are unwilling to make this investment if there is a <br /> continuing possibility that the complaints of 3 or 4 residents who are <br /> engaged in a campaign to reject the business will result in the termination <br /> of the CUP. <br /> Accordingly, the applicants request that the Planning Commission review a <br /> request to ammend the present CUP at their March 19 meeting, and the Council <br /> act on a request to eliminate the deadline in the current CUP at their April <br /> 9 meeting. <br /> The purpose of this application is to provide the business sufficient time <br /> to relocate in an organized manner if the City will not approve its <br /> operation in this Light Industrial District. <br /> 1 <br />
