C.U.P. 94-31 Page 2 <br /> Continued <br /> • ANALYSIS <br /> The narrative and maps contained in Shiely's application give a fair <br /> description of their proposed operation. Based on the seven standards for <br /> approving a conditional use permit, numerous issues and concerns regarding <br /> this proposal arise. Staff feels that the attached recommended conditions <br /> address these issues. The reasons for most of them are obvious, therefore, <br /> with the following discussion we will only elaborate on the conditions, when <br /> needed for clarification. <br /> CONDITIONS <br /> 10. Reclamation <br /> Shiely's proposal is consistent with the proposed contours in the City's <br /> Environmental Impact Statement on mineral excavation. <br /> The proposed bottom of the Shiely gravel pit is also within 10 feet of <br /> elevation of the proposed bottom of Barton's pit to the east. However, <br /> there is a conflict between these two pits. Barton's reclamation plan is <br /> • in the shape of a bowl, going uphill from the center of their pit, <br /> westward to the boundary of Shiely's property. A condition placed on <br /> Barton Sand and Gravel was that they modify their reclamation plan <br /> once the long range planning for the mineral excavation district was <br /> completed. Therefore, the conflict will be resolved by Barton's <br /> modifying of their plan. <br /> Otherwise, Shiely's reclamation plan appears appropriate, at least in <br /> general terms. The subject property is currently zoned R1A/Single <br /> Family Residential. The proposed contours can accommodate houses <br /> and are no steeper than a 4:1 slope. Further, the various options for a <br /> future east/west road corridor through this area can be accommodated <br /> by Shiely's proposed contours. <br /> 15. Traffic <br /> Staff anticipates Shiely requesting permission to haul existing stock <br /> piles of sand this fall, even if the by-pass lane and acceleration lane <br /> are not completed. Staff does not recommend this because of safety <br /> concerns. If this were to be allowed, it would be important to consider <br /> how many trucks per hour would be hauling out of this area, what <br /> time of day they would operate, and take appropriate safety <br /> IIIprecautions such as a flagman. <br /> geryl-BZ <br />
