The property is zoned I1-Light Industrial where Outdoor Storage requires a Conditional Use Permit (CUP). As a result of a complaint regarding the products stored outside, the applicant has applied for a CUP for outdoor storage. The applicant is proposing to utilize the parking lot on the west side of the property for the outdoor storage and fencing it on three sides. This would displace 10 parking stalls, but they can be relocated to the east side of the property. Staff recommends the area be fenced on all sides to meet the requirements in Section 30-807. The applicant has been utilizing two temporary structures for storage. One is in the northwest corner of the site and the other in the northeast corner. The applicant has requested to continue to use these in the interim. Staff recommends the two temporary outdoor storage structures be removed from the property two years after city council approval of the CUP. Staff also recommends the one located in the northwest corner be relocated next to the other temporary storage structure. Applicable Regulations In approving a Conditional Use Permit, the council may impose such specific conditions with regard to the development or operation of the proposed use as it considers necessary to satisfy the seven standards set forth in Section 30-654 and the requirements contained in this article and to promote compatibility with and minimize any potentially adverse effects upon adjacent properties, the neighborhood or the city.

Staff recommends a 6-foot tall, 100% opaque fence be installed, and all outdoor storage must occur in the fenced in area or within the two temporary structures. No product can be stored behind the building, on top of the two temporary structures, or higher than the top of the fence. 2. mill be consistent nvith the comprehensive plan.
