Proposed Use <br />• When Novotn Y s originally constructed the building, it was presented as a <br />building that would be used for storage and warehousing which is a <br />permitted use in the I -1 (Light Industrial) zoning district. Under that <br />interpretation, staff proceeded to review their proposed site plan and issue a <br />building permit based on that particular use. However, with the addition of <br />the second principal building which will serve as an office area and the <br />current operation of the facility, staff believes a better interpretation of the <br />use is a truck terminal. A truck terminal is a conditional use permit in the <br />light industrial district; therefore, this conditional use permit request has <br />been expanded to include a truck terminal, as well as the second principal <br />use. <br />Proposed Office Building <br />The proposed office building will be 520 square feet in size and will resemble <br />a small residential garage. The structure will have a hip roof with asphalt <br />shingles and pre - finished vinyl siding on all sides. These architectural <br />materials meet the city's architectural requirements listed in the zoning <br />ordinance (see attached excerpt from performance standards). <br />The proposed second building meets all of the industrial setback <br />requirements; however, staff is concerned with its location if it interferes <br />with the existing septic system. The approved site plan from November of <br />1993 indicated the septic system on the west side of the property; however, <br />staff believes it was relocated to a location close to the proposed building. <br />Therefore, additional information will need to be provided to make sure the <br />building does not interfere with the existing septic system. <br />Compliance with Approved Site Plan <br />The approved site plan from November 1993, illustrated a bituminous <br />parking surface along with landscaping that was to be installed as part of the <br />improvements. Staff is concerned that these improvements have not been <br />installed in accordance with the approved plan and would recommend that a <br />condition of the conditional use permit state that the improvements be <br />installed prior to June 1st of 1996. <br />Since the original site plan was approved in November of 1993, the Planning <br />Commission and City Council have approved anordinance requiring curb and <br />gutter within front yard areas of industrial development. Furniture and <br />Things located across the street and Custom Cutter and Grinding (under <br />• construction) have both installed curb and gutter in accordance with city <br />s:p lanningpc:cu95 -23 <br />
