Planning Commission Minutes Page 2 <br /> May 25,2004 <br /> Bobby Peterson, applicant and owner of the site, stated that the landscape plan has been <br /> redone as suggested by staff and will be resubmitted for the City Council review on June 21. <br /> He stated that he does not see a need for signage. Mr.Peterson stated that the landscaped <br /> areas will be irrigated and that will be noted on the landscape plan if requested. He <br /> is working with the City Engineer,Terry Maurer regarding his recommendations and that <br /> those changes will be incorporated for City Council review,as well. Mr.Peterson discussed <br /> the exterior building materials,stating that they will have no problem meeting the City's <br /> requirements. He noted that a standard curb should have been listed and that it is cost <br /> effective to include the additional fifteen parking spaces now. He then discussed the <br /> function of the second access and why it is being requested.Mr.Peterson noted that the <br /> second access will only be used about once a week. <br /> There being no further public comment,Chair Ropp closed the public hearing. <br /> Commissioner Stevens stated that he liked the design of the project. He stated that he had <br /> some concern regarding the second access but that this a truck terminal and he understood <br /> the need for it. He noted that the landscape plan may work better with two accesses rather <br /> than one widened access. <br /> Commissioner Pederson asked if the building materials proposed by the applicant meet the <br /> City's requirements. Ms.McPherson stated that the requirements would be met if applicant <br /> uses the materials on the front of the building and under the canopy as he has described. <br /> Commissioner Pederson stated he concurred with Commissioner Steven's comments and <br /> that he supported the second driveway based on the following:the project is located in an <br /> industrial area,the second driveway would have limited use,it would be difficult to <br /> maneuver a truck without it. <br /> Commissioner Offerman stated he also supported the second access. He asked if staff felt <br /> there was a need to sign the primary access for entrance only. Ms.McPherson stated that <br /> the issue is having two driveways in a short distance. Staff will review the plan to make sure <br /> the driveways are not excessively wide. She stated that it would make sense to sign the <br /> driveway coming out of the building for exit only. <br /> MOTION BY COMMISSIONER STEVENS AND SECONDED BY <br /> COMMISSIONER PEDERSON TO RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THE <br /> REQUEST BY BMS INVESTMENTS FORA CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT, <br /> CASE NO.CU 04-14,WITH THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS: <br /> 1.
