MINUTES HUGO PLANNING COMMISSION JULY 13, 2006 Call to Order Chairman Schumann called the meeting to order at 7:00 p.m. PRESENT: Bailly, Hoffbeck, Kleissler, McRoberts, Schumann, Weidt ABSENT: Rosenquist ALSO PRESENT: Bryan Bear, Community Development Director (CDD) Rachel Simone, Community Development Intern (CD Intern) Kendra Lindahl, Planner Minutes of June 22, 2006 Weidt made motion, Hoffbeck seconded, to approve the Planning Commission minutes of June 22, 2006, as submitted. All Ayes. Motion carried. Grey Bernier Rezoning from R-3 to C-2 The Commission held a public hearing to consider the request by Greg and Elizabeth Bernier to rezone the eastern portion of their property from Single Family Detached (R-3) to General Business (C-2) located at 15409 Forest Boulevard North. The CD Intern explained the issue to the Planning Commission stating the surrounding properties to the north are zoned General Business (C-2) and the properties to the south are zoned General Industrial. The properties to the east and west of the said parcel are zoned Single Family Detached (R-3). There is an existing accessory building on the said parcel and is covered by a CUP which will limit the use to only storage of personal property and can not be used for commercial or industrial uses. In April of 1996 the City approved the subdivision of a .63 acre parcel from a 70 acre parcel to the east owned by the Peloquin's. The .63 acre parcel was purchased by the Bernier's and combined with the existing parcel. At the time of the subdivision the properties were zoned Agricultural which allowed the Bernier's to construct the 3600 square foot accessory building. A 40' x 90' accessory building was constructed on that portion of the property. The accessory building was approved with a conditional use permit (CUP) stating that the structure can only be used for cold storage of personal property and can not be used in any way for commercial/industrial use. The CUP will continue on the property even if the property is rezoned to commercial. This limits the Bernier's from using this structure for a commercial or industrial use. A City wide rezoning was adopted in June of 1999. At this time, the parcels adjoining Highway 61 in this area to the east were rezoned to General Business. The district was established along the property lines prior to the combination of the .63 acre parcel with the Bernier's property even though the Bernier's did combine their parcels. This resulted in Bernier's original parcel to be zoned General
