Mr. Leeseberg provided Exhibit B which demonstrated staff's revised recommendation for parking of the rental vehicles and trailers. Staff recommended approval of the CUP with the changes noted. Chair Johnson opened the public hearing. Brian Brehmer, applicant— stated that Exhibit B was more favorable. He stated he would like to park only trailers by the gas fill arca, since parking the other vehicles would hinder the gas fill trucks. Chair Johnson asked if the applicant had any issues with the recommended screening. Mr. • Brehmer stated no, and noted that two trees on the site do not show up on the exhibit. Mr. Leeseberg provided information on the viewing screen which showed those trees are likely in the highway right-of-way. Chair Johnson asked what the maximum number of trucks and trailers on the property has been. Mr. Brehmer stated he has had up to 8 trucks (vans) and 6 trailers (14 vehicles), but he would like to be allowed a maximum of 16 vehicles during peak times. Chair Johnson stated he did not see a problem with a maximum of 16 vehicles. Mr. Leeseberg stated that staff recommended a maximum of 10 to minimize the visual impacts, in accordance with the city's beautification program. Chair Johnson stated that he was not opposed to increasing the number of vehicles and suggested requiring more trees. Mr. Leeseberg stated that there are limited options for trees due to the power line running along the southern portion of the site. Chair Johnson asked where Mr. Brehmer currently parks the excess vehicles in peak times. Mr. Brehmer stated he parks them near the fuel price sign in the northwest corner of the site. Commissioner Konietzko asked if Mr. Brehmer would park vehicles along Highway 10. Mr. Brehmer stated no, due to the location of the propane fill and the large trucks utilizing this area for access to the diesel fuel. Discussion followed regarding the best location for parking of regular vehicle inventory and excess vehicles during peak times. Mr. Brehmer explained that parking trailers in the southern parking spaces did not work due to the incline, which caused the trailers to roll • forward.
