7. On October 16, 2023, the City Council revie`ved the Application, and received additional testimony from the public and the applicant. 8. The CityT Council concurs with the Planiung Commission's recommendation and, based on the record generated in these proceedings makes the following findings of fact related to the Conditional Use PeYmit Application: a. The outdoor parking and storage of large work vehicles and trailers `vill detrimentally effect the enjoyment and geneYal welfaYe of the neighborhood immediatelyT surrounding the Propernr. (1) The large work vehicles and work trailer would be highly visible and obviouslyT commercial in nature. The work vehicles are bucket trucks, which have a large visual presence and are not generally found in residential areas. (2) The proposed trailer is for directing traffic and is specificallyT designed to be high visibility. It further contains uncovered traffic direction material which are likewise designed to be high visibilit�T. This creates further obvious impact to the neighborhood. (3) The proposed use involves parking three large work trucks and one large work trailer outdoors on the PropertyT, close to the street This use is distinctlyT different from ordinaryT residential use. (4) The proposed use would frequentlyT require multiple employTees to travel to and from the Property, and park there during the dayT, generaring addirional vehicle traffic, noise, and visual impact and further deteriorate the residential character of the neighborhood. (5) The proposed use would require the parking of large �vork vehicles and �vork trailers on a regular basis, and during the �vinter for months on end, and would not YepYesent an incidental use of the Propert�-. (6) Given the la�Tout of the PropertyT there is no wa�T to adequatel�T screen the proposed use without creating even more impact to the surrounding neighborhood. (7) The surrounding neighborhood is quiet and residential in nature, and the proposed use `vould represent a large deviation from the e�sting character of the neighborhood. b. The operation of a business and parking of `vork vehicles `vill detrimentallyT affect nearb�T residents and properties through increased traffic and excessive noise. (1) The proposed use includes the operation of three laYge work vehicles. These large work vehicles generate more noise and impact than personal vehicles. (2) The proposed use `vould occasionallyT involve multiple employees travelling to and from the Propernr, and parking there during the workda�T.
