Planning Commission/CU 03-06 April 22,2003 Page 2 • Existing Conditions The site is an interior lot and has little or no trees and is basically flat. Located on the site is a single family home and a detached pole building. The nearest home is approximately 175- feet away. There is double row of pine trees between the subject property and the nearest home. The applicant has been operating this business for the past two and half years without a Conditional Use Permit. Prior to a recent complaint call,there have not been any complaints within that two and half year period regarding activities on the site. Analysis The applicant is applying for a Conditional Use Permit to operate a home occupation because, as indicated in Number 7 of the Home Occupation Standards, "No permitted home occupation shall be serviced by delivery vehicles larger than 26,000 pounds gross vehicle weight." This Home Occupation receives deliveries from vehicles exceeding this requirement. The ceiling texturing business will be run out of a pole building located on the 2 1/2 acre site. The majority of the pole shed will be devoted to storage of the texturing materials and trucks. There will be a 132 sqft office within the pole building. Delivery of the texturing material will be approximately once every month via a tandem axle flat bed truck. The truck will be backed onto the site and the product will be removed with • a forklift and stored in the pole building until used at specific job sites. Access to the pole shed will be off of 178th Avenue at an existing driveway. There is a 5-ton road restriction placed on this street during spring months. This may or may not affect deliveries. If it does,the applicant will need to follow these restrictions by having deliveries with smaller loads. The hours of operation will be Monday through Friday 8:00 a.m.to 7:00 p.m. with an occasional Saturday. The number of employees that will be meeting and then leaving from the subject property will be five. The applicant will provide a parking area on the back side (south) of the pole building. Recommendation Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve the request for a conditional use permit for a Home Occupation (Drywall business) with the following conditions: 1. THERE SHALL NOT BE MORE THAN FIVE EMPLOYEES AND FIVE EMPLOYEE VEHICLES PARKED ON SITE. IF ADDITIONAL EMPLOYEES OR VEHICLES ARE TO BE ADDED, THE APPLICANT SHALL APPLY FOR AN AMENDMENT TO THE CONDITIONAL USE • PERMIT. S:\PLANNING\Cue Files\2003\CU 03-06 Casey\CU03-06 PC.DOC
