Time limit. A time limit was suggested by staff, as a means of encouraging the completion of the original Conditional Use Permit. This was originally modeled after the Lakeland Properties (CU 10-01) Conditional Use Permit (attached) that was suggested by staff, although there is no time limit imposed by the Council. Planning Commission Discussion The Planning Commission agreed with the engineer that the erosion issue needed to be addressed as it would only get worse with increased run-off. The Planning Commission also agreed with staffs recommendation to amend the landscaping plan, although some commissioners had concerns with the term "screening". In response, staff modified the recommended condition. The Planning Commission felt that a time limit is appropriate. The recommended condition #7 has not been reviewed by the Planning Commission, but was drafted based on their input. Public Comment There was no public comment except for those offered by the applicants. The applicants had concerns with the landscaping, as they indicated that it has been planted twice and did not survive. They also noted that a well would be helpful, but having been told by previous staff that it is not permitted, they no longer have the funds to put a well in. They also felt that screening of their property was unnecessary due to the image of the area, and that is can barely be seen from the rail lines. Staff and the applicant are working together on the development of a landscape plan. The applicants also voiced concern regarding the time frame, feeling that it is unfair regulation of their business. Upon further review, staff notes that the Council did not impose a time limit on the most recent outdoor storage request. Staff s recommendations include a time limit for outdoor storage, believing this is important to the image issue. The applicants also noted the conditions of the neighboring property, and highlighted the fact that the neighbor to the north has several RV's parked. The Conditional Use Permit allows outdoor storage, but does not state limitations to what is stored. It is helpful to note that a requested variance for reduction in landscaping requirements was denied. Further, it was a requirement to install an irrigation system.
