Case File: CU 06-15 Page 4 Criteria for Issuance of an Interim Use Permit In determining whether to authorize an interim use, the planning commission and city council shall consider the following criteria: 1) The period of time for which the interim use permit is to be granted will terminate before any adverse impacts are felt upon adjacent properties. 2) There is adequate assurance that the property will be left in suitable condition after the use is terminated. 3) The use is similar to uses deftned in the zoning district in which the property is located. 4) The date or event that will terminate the use can be identifted with certainty. 5) Authorizing the use will not impose additional costs on the public if it is necessary for the public to take the property in the future. 6) The applicant and user agree to all conditions that the city council deems appropriate for authorization of the interim use. 7) The applicant provides assurances deemed adequate by the city council that the use will terminate as provided in the interim use permit. The city council may require the applicant to deposit a cash amount with the city, or provide some other form of security, to ensure compliance with this criteria. The city council must determine that the authorization of the interim use will not result in adverse effects on the public health, safety, or welfare. PlanninK Commission Actions Other than the applicant, no one spoke at the public hearing. The majority of the discussion focused around the duration the applicant was proposing to be at the facility. The applicant stated they would occupy the Boys and Girls Club for two years and possibly a third year depending on the construction of their new permanent facility. The Planning Commission questioned if they would be in favor of an Interim Use Permit, which is a CUP with an expiration. The applicant agreed with the request being approved as an interim use. The other issue discussed was the freestanding sign located at the intersection of 6th and Jackson. The ordinance prohibits off-premise signs. This sign is not located on the property in which the Boys and Girls Club is located and staff made a recommendation that the sign needs to be moved to comply with the ordinance. The Planning commission wanted staff to investigate a way in which the sign could remain in the present location. The City council has in the past approved signs in similar situations as an "Area or Neighborhood Identiftcation" sign. If this sign location is approved, staff would make the recommendation that the applicant provide the City with written permission from the property owner in which the freestanding sign is located. The Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval of the request as an Interim Use Permit until July 15, 2010. S:\PLANNING\Case Files\2006\CUP\CU 06-15 Spectrum High School\CU 06-15_CC.doc
