Case File: CU 08-03 Waconia Farm Supply <br />Page 3 Budget Rental'I'rucks <br />If denial of such a permit should occur, it shall accompany recommendations or determinations by <br />findings or a report stating how the proposed use does not comply with the standards set forth in <br />Section 30-654. <br />In the review of the standards for CUP as outlined, it appears that the request is consistent with all <br />of these standards. <br />Overview/Analysis <br />The Elk River Farm Supply is requesting approval to allow three to four Budget Rental trucks for <br />their business. The C-3 Zoning district allows equipment rental businesses by way of Conditional <br />Use Permit. They would offer the renting of the trucks to their customers and store the trucks on <br />site when not in use. <br />Elk River Farm Supply is located in downtown Elk River in between Highway 10 and the Rail Road <br />tracks next to the city parking lot. According to the site plan the proposed Budget truck parking is <br />on either side of the existing garage, which would have one truck visible from Highway 10. <br />Outdoor storage is present along Highway 10 in this area of town. Grand Rental Station is southeast <br />of the subject site with outdoor storage visible from Highway 10. <br />This property is within the downtown study area. While there is no moratorium, any new activity <br />before a plan has been finalized may be considered an impediment to redevelopment efforts. <br />Recommendation <br />Staff supports approval of the Conditional Use Permit as presented in this report. <br />Action Motion by Second by Vote <br />Follow Up <br />S:\PLANNING\Case Files\CUP\CU 08-03 farm supply\PC report.doc <br />
