The applicant is seeking a CUP to <br />construct an approximately 9,100 sq.ft. building with outdoor storage <br />for storage of their exterior building products. The building will have <br />63% warehouse space and be clad with the varying products they offer. <br /> <br />Access to the parcel will be from an access drive on the west side of the parcel. The submitted site plan shows 16 <br />parking stalls for the building which meet the ordinance requirements. Staff has concerns regarding how vehicles <br />will back out of the stalls/parking area from the angled parking on the north end of the building and recommend <br />the applicant evaluate the configuration. <br /> <br />The Elk River Vision <br />A welcoming community with revolutionary and spirited resourcefulness, exceptional <br /> <br />service, and community engagement that encourages and inspires prosperity. <br /> Updated: August 2020 <br />
