All the residents that spoke were in favor of a <br />conditional use permit if it was limited to the tractor only. <br /> <br />The Planning Commission was satisfied with the applicants efforts towards <br />cleaning up the site and felt the site conditions were somewhat unrelated to <br />the issue of parking semi-tractor and trailers on the site. The Commission <br />moved to remove the following condition from the recommendation: <br /> <br />. THAT THE PROPERTY BE MAINTAINED FREE OF RUBBISH OR DEBRIS <br /> <br />Recommendation <br /> <br />Staff recommends that the City Council deny the applicants request for a <br />conditional use permit to park a semi-tractor and trailer on a residential <br />(RIa) property because the use does not comply with the following standards: <br /> <br />1. WILL ENDANGER, INJURE OR DETRIMENTALLY AFFECT THE USE AND <br />ENJOYMENT OF OTHER PROPERTY IN THE IMMEDIATE VICINITY OR THE <br />PUBLIC HEALTH, SAFETY, MORALS, COMFORT, CONVENIENCE OR <br />GENERAL WELFARE OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD OR THE CITY. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />2. THE APPLICANT HAS NOT BEEN IN COMPLIANCE WITH ALL OTHER <br />REQUIREMENTS OF THE CITY'S CODE OF ORDINANCES, INCLUDING ANY <br />APPLICABLE REQUIREMENTS AND STANDARDS FOR THE ISSUANCE OF A <br />LICENSE OR PERMIT TO ESTABLISH AND OPERATE THE PROPOSED USE <br />IN THE CITY OF ELK RIVER. <br /> <br />The Planning Commission recommends that the City Council approve the <br />applicants request for a conditional use permit to park a semi-tractor and <br />trailer on a residential (RIa) property with the following conditions: <br /> <br />1. THAT THE PERMIT APPLIES TO THE PARKING OF THE SEMI-TRACTOR <br />ONLY. <br /> <br />2. THAT ANY DRIVEWAYS SHALL BE WELL DEFINED, A MAXIMUM WIDTH OF <br />30 FEET AT THE STREET RIGHT-OF-WAY, AND PAVED WITH A DUST-FREE, <br />ALL-WEATHER SURFACE WITH PROPER SURFACE DRAINAGE, SUCH AS A <br />CLASS V GRAVEL, AS APPROVED BY THE CITY ENGINEER. ALSO, THAT <br />ALL DRIVEWAYS BE SETBACK 5 FEET FROM ANY PROPERTY LINES AND <br />PAVED PRIOR TO OCTOBER 1, 1999. <br /> <br />3. THAT IF A DRIVEWAY ACCESS OFF OF MEADOWVALE ROAD IS APPROVED <br />BY THE COUNTY, THE CITY MAY REQUIRE THE DRIVEWAY BE REMOVED <br />IF AND WHEN SEMI-TRACTOR PARKING IS NO LONGER NEEDED, OR IF <br />THE TRUCKING OPERATION INVOLVES MORE THAN ONE SEMI-TRACTOR <br />OR TRAILOR. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />\ \elkriver\sys\shrdoc\planning\stevewen \ccmmo\cu99-7 cc. doc <br />
