Staff recommends the following motion: Move to approve Resolution 95 -111, approving a conditional use permit to operate an auto sales lot at 2021 Mainstreet. At the Zoning and Planning meeting, Mr. Brausen moved and Mr. Johnson seconded a motion to recommend approval Resolution RZ95 -32 for a conditional use permit to operate an auto sales lot at 2021 Mainstreet. The motion carried unanimously. Overview. The applicant, Scott Duneman, is proposing to operate an auto sales lot at 2021 Mainstreet, which is on the northeast corner of Mainstreet and Shady Oak Road. The Zoning Ordinance requires a conditional use permit for auto sales in the B -3 zoning district. The subject site was the former site of Smith Import Motor Supply. Smith Import Motor Supply has now moved to the building to the east. Primary Issues to Consider. o How is the property zoned, and how has the Comprehensive Plan designated the subject site? o What are the requirements for a conditional use permit to operate an auto sales lot? o What are the specifics for the proposed auto sales lot? o What occurred at the Zoning and Planning meeting? Primary Issues to Consider. o How is the property zoned, and how has the Comprehensive Plan designated the subject site? The subject property is zoned B -3, General Business. The Comprehensive Plan has designated the site as Commercial. The proposed use conforms with both of these documents. o What are the conditions for a conditional use permit for an auto sales lot? 1. the sales lot shall not be larger in square footage than the square footage of the building devoted to the related business; 2. a 20 -foot front yard setback, in which there shall be no auto parking. Within this 20 feet setback there shall be a permanent barrier of landscaping; 3. lighting of the sales lot shall be totally from indirect lighting; 4. should the lot abut an R district, an acceptable design of screening fence five feet in height shall be constructed along the abutting lot line; and 5. the auto sales lot shall not include vehicles over 9,000 lbs. rated weight. The site plan, as submitted by the applicant, meets the above requirements. What are the specifics for the proposed auto sales lot? Landscaping The site plan details a landscaped area on the Mainstreet side of the lot. The landscaping will be a planter made from raised railroad ties. The railroad tie area will be filled with crushed rock and there will be three planters within this area. The large planters will have two bushes and one bush in the small. Staff feels that the landscaped area could be upgraded. Because of the time of year, the applicant will not be planting the area until the spring. Staff is recommending that the applicant work with the staff regarding the landscaped area in the spring to provide a quality landscaped area. Lighting CR95 -218 Page 2 The site will be lit from rooftop- mounted lights. Most of the lighting will be on the Mainstreet side of the site, away from the residential area to the north. Parking The site plan indicated nine parking spaces for sale vehicles. The building is 1721 square feet, which allows for nine "for sale" parking spaces. The site is required to have four customer parking and employee spaces. The plan shows five customer and employee parking spaces. Trash The trash area will be located on the east side of the building and screened from Mainstreet. Access Access to the site will remain the same. The existing access is from Mainstreet and Shady Oak Road. Fencing The applicant is proposing a five-foot high cedar fence on the north side of the property for 68 feet of the northerly property line. The Zoning Ordinance requires a fence on the entire lot line that abuts a residential district. Setbacks The Zoning Ordinance requires a 20 -foot front yard setback that is landscaped. The site plan indicates a 20 -foot front yard landscaped area. Surrounding uses The site is surrounded by a residential area to the north, The Pines Mobile Home Park to the south, and commercial uses to the east and west. CR95 -218 Page 3 What occurred at the Zoning and Planning meeting? Staff reviewed the applicant's proposal. Scott Duneman, the applicant, appeared before the Commission. Mr. Blair was concerned with the landscaping location. Staff noted that the landscaping was a requirement of the conditional use permit and that there is the boulevard between the landscaping and the roadway. Mr. Duneman stated that he was flexible regarding the landscaping. Mr. Blair also suggested that the fence is six feet high; the site plan indicated a five -foot fence. Mr. Duneman stated that he would construct a six -foot fence. At the public hearing, Verna Lundeen of 18th Avenue South, appeared before the Commission. Ms. Lundeen stated that a used car lot was not a good use for this property. Several members of the Commission indicated that the used car lot will be a less intense use than the previous use of an auto repair lot. Alternatives. CR95 -218 Page 4 1.
