Case File: CU 11-04 Trident/ Lake State Conditional Use Permit -Recycling processing center <br />Page 2 <br />BACKGROUND/PRECEDENT <br />In the last five years, the City has not reviewed a conditional use application for recycling processing <br />center. <br />GENERAL INFORMATION <br />Location Existing Use Comprehensive Plan <br />Designation Current Zoning <br />Subject <br />Property Industrial Light Industrial I-1 Light Industrial <br />North Industrial Light Industrial I-1 Light Industrial <br />South Industrial Light Industrial I-1 Light Industrial <br />East Industrial Light Industrial I-1 Light Industrial <br />West Vacant Light Industrial I-1 Light Industrial <br />ANALYSIS <br />A recycling processing center requires Conditional Use Permit review, in part due to the potential for <br />greater than normal noise, dust, vibration, and outdoor storage over standard manufacturing processes <br />common in the industrially zoned areas. Recycling processes implies bringing in used (consumer or <br />industrial) waste which may not be packaged neatly, creating opportunity for litter. Additionally, if a <br />processing center received materials directly from consumers, there is an additional public access <br />component that must be reviewed. All facets of the dismantling and breakdown occur indoors. Storage <br />of materials is completed indoors, with the exception of shipping trailers outdoors during loading and <br />unloading. <br />The businesses have indicated no direct consumer drop off of product; in the event that service was <br />provided, there are adequate lot entrances and minimal customer interaction with larger trucks could be <br />managed. <br />The narrative for Lake State suggests the need for exterior large dumpsters for the collection of product <br />before distribution. Staff suggests a 3'~ condition, requiring this and anyvehicle storage to occur not in <br />the north or east yard. <br />Based on the information received from the applicant, it appears that the use is consistent with more <br />typical manufacturing or industrial operations. <br />APPLICABLE REGULATIONS <br />Conditional Use Permit <br />The issuance of a Conditional Use Permit can be ordered only if the use at the proposed location: <br />N:\Departments\Comm,,niryDevelopment\Plulning\Case Files\CCJP\C[J 11-04 Trident Polymers\CCT 11-04 Trident polymers 3-& l l.docx <br />
