I. The period of time for which the interim use permit is to be granted will terminate before any adverse impacts <br />are felt upon adjacent properties. <br />The ordinance (Section 30-801) states an approved Interim Use Permit for a residential occupation shall <br />terminate when the property is sold or when a lease has expired. Although termination does not guarantee <br />adverse effects will not affect nearby properties, the residential occupation outdoor storage ordinance <br />regulations and the approved conditions strive to prevent this outcome. <br />2. There is adequate assurance that the property will be left in suitable condition after the use is terminated. <br />The detached accessory structure and fenced -in area, the areas being reviewed, are currently located on the <br />parcel. If the Interim Use Permit is terminated, the site will be left in a suitable condition. <br />3. The use is similar to uses allowed in the zoning district in which the property is located. <br />Outdoor storage is allowed with an IUP in the zoning district on properties 5-acres or larger. The subject <br />property (13.34 acres) is well above the required minimum. The city has also approved residential <br />occupations with outdoor storage areas. <br />4. The date or event that will terminate the use can be identified with certainty. <br />Yes, the ordinance states an approved Interim Use Permit for a residential occupation shall terminate when <br />the property is sold or when a lease has expired. <br />S. Authorizing the use will not impose additional costs on the public if it is necessary for the public to take the <br />property in the future. <br />If the public were to take over the property, no additional costs would be imposed on the public, as there are <br />no extraordinary features to the request. <br />6. The applicant and user agree to all conditions that the city council deems appropriate for authorization of the <br />interim use. <br />This will be determined at the City Council meeting. <br />7. The applicant provides assurances deemed adequate by the city council that the use will terminate as provided <br />in the interim use permit. The city council may require the applicant to deposit a cash amount with the city, or provide <br />some other form of security, to ensure compliance with this criteria. <br />Again, the ordinance states an approved Interim Use Permit for a residential occupation shall terminate when <br />the property is sold or when a lease has expired. A cash deposit does not appear to be necessary to comply <br />with the criteria. <br />8. Authorization of the interim use will not result in adverse effects on the public health, safety, or welfare. <br />The ordinance has predetermined acceptable lot sizes and distances from existing neighboring structures. <br />With the Outdoor Storage Ordinance Regulations and proposed conditions, the use should not adversely <br />affect the public health, safety, or welfare. <br />9. The proposed interim use is consistent with the City of Elk River Comprehensive Plan and conforms to the city's <br />zoning regulations. <br />The use is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan which guides the property as Rural Residential and single <br />family uses, with residential occupations, are allowed in the zoning district. <br />PageoglobM <br />
