Planning Commission Minutes July 25, 2023 Page 4 Commissioner Booth stated he feels this is an industrial application even though it is being operated at his residence and doesn't feel like what Mr. Bye is planning to do would be considered a residential use. He felt Mr. Bye should be renting or purchasing industrial or commercial property to operate his business. Commissioner Mauren felt surprised a property owner can put this building here and request a conditional use permit. His concerns were for the proximity of the neighbor to the east; to ask someone to live 60' from a construction yard was stark and a lot to ask. He understood the major concerns the public had and that they were trying to squeeze this use into this area. He felt it is too extreme a use for this area and there were no conditions that could allow compliance with Approval Standards that would promote compatibility with and minimize any potentially adverse effects upon adjacent properties, mainly Standard 1, affect the use and enjoyment of other properties in the immediate vicinity; Standard 4, adversely affect essential public facilities and services — traffic; and Standard 5 - noise and fumes. He didn't feel the conditions outlined would guarantee these standards be met. Commissioner Beise cannot see how this request meets Regulation 1 even with the proposed conditions. Commissioner Keisling agreed and could not see how it meets Regulation 1. Chair Larson -Vito argued Regulation 2 as she doesn't feel the use is not consistent with the Comprehensive Plan; Regulation 3 would impede spot zoning; and Regulation 5 could have a future impact if area is developed into additional residential properties. Moved by Commissioner Booth and seconded by Commissioner Keisling to recommend denial of the request of Jason Bye for a Conditional Use Permit to establish a home -based business, construction yard, at 10208 209`' Ave. NW citing Approval Standards 1, 2, 3, and 5 set forth in Section 30-654 of the City Code cannot be met. Motion carried 5-0. 4.3 Aegir Brewing Company LLC — Tim Jones — 19050 Industrial Blvd. NW ■ Amendment to Conditional Use Permit CU 20-15 to expand bar/tavern/nightclub space, Case No. CU 23-12 Mr. Leeseberg presented the staff report. Commissioner Beise asked about the two parking plans included in the staff report. Mr. Leeseberg stated staff met with the applicant in April 2023 and the applicant stated they considered purchasing property around them to expand parking. Mr. Leeseberg put together a graphic to show them what they could likely get for parking numbers if they obtain additional land. He wasn't sure if that is still an option. Chair Larson -Vito asked if there was any consideration of pedestrian trail access as an adjustment to parking. She indicated a trail will be completed connecting Upland and Meadowvale. Mr. Leeseberg indicated that was a good question but wasn't sure. He said it was a great idea for trail access. He suggested the applicant could apply for a variance for parking number requirements but varying from r 0 if B E I I r NA ! VRE
