Planning Commission 'i
�
The Planning Commission held a public hearing at a meeting on November 2, 2015. There was '
no public testimony received in favor or opposition of the applications. An excerpt from the '
minutes of that meeting are attached. After discussion, the Planning Commission recommended �
that the City Council conditionally approve the applications based on the findings of fact and
subject to the conditions stipulated in the staff report, with an added condition requiring a 20-foot ;
access lane in the storage area. I
Background ;
The proposed expansion involves a triangular tract of land directly west of the existing devel-
oped site. The applicant recently purchased the property and is seeking to do a phased expan- ,
sion of the site. The expanded area will be utilized for additional exterior sales and storage area '
and eventually a new sales building. This use is legal non-conforming and is the trigger for this ��
conditional use permit request. The new expansion area is being treated as a contiguous portion
of the applicant's existing parcel from a zoning perspective. In the spring of 2015, the City was '
made aware that the applicant was expanding the commercial use on the property without ap- '
propriate approvals and permits. The expanded activity included tree removal with grading activ-
ity and building occupancy. This application process will address the expanded use on the site. ,
Prior to application being made, the City Building Official and City Attorney worked with the ',
applicant and his attorney to resolve any outstanding issues that would not be addressed during
the current review. ; j
Property Characteristics
The expansion site currently has two houses and associated wells and septic and numerous !
detached accessory structures. All but one of the structures will be razed from the site. The re- ,
maining structure was converted to a maintenance/storage facility through a post-construction
building permit. Demolition permits and photo documentation will be required prior to any struc- �
tures being removed from the site. A detail of the existing site conditions is included below with i
the structures to be removed in red. The existing structure on the site is located in the develop ,
area, which has had numerous additions over the years, along with bituminous parking and
storage areas and graveled storage areas.

The existing and proposed use is currently a nonconformity in that it is not allowed as a per-
mitted or conditional use within the B-2 zoning district. The existing zoning text from Title 11-11-

The proposed expansion area is a separate tax parcel that is not currently part of the applicant's j
existing legal non-conforming property, but the City Attorney indicated that if there was contigu- !
ous ownership of the property, which can be accomplished by combining the properties as one I
taxing parcel, then it could be considered as an expansion of a legal non-conformity. Failure to
combine the parcels would prevent the conditional use on the expansion property. ,
When reviewing conditional use permits, the Planning Commission looks to Title 11-2-9F; Crite- ;
ria for Issuance of CUP, as the guiding doctrine for review. This section states that in granting a ',
CUP, the City Council shall find that: I
1. The use will be in conformity with the City's Comprehensive Plan and with the purpose, intent I
and applicable standards of this Title.
2. The use shall be located, designed, maintained and operated to be compatible with the existing '
or intended character of that zoning district in which it is located.
3. The use shall not depreciate values of surrounding property. ',
4. The use shall not be hazardous, detrimental or disturbing to present and potential surrounding
land uses due to noises, glare, smoke, dust, odor, fumes, water pollution, vibration, general ,
unsightliness or other nuisances.
5. The use shall generate only minimal vehicular traffic on local streets as defined by the trans- ,
portation element of the Comprehensive Plan. The use shall not create traffic congestion, '
unsafe access or parking needs that will cause inconveniences to the adjoining properties.
6. The use shall be served adequately by essential public services, such as streets, police, fire ',
protection and utilities. �'
7. The use shall not create excessive additional requirements at public cost for public facilities �
and services and shall not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the City. ,,
8. The use shall preserve and incorporate the site's important natural and scenic features into the i
development design.
9. The use shall cause minimal adverse environmental effects.
10. The use shall not adversely affect the potential development of adjacent vacant land. i
The City's Technical Review Committee reviewed this application under those criteria. The
Committee found that the criteria could be met and recommended approval of the CUP for the �
requested phased expansion.
Site Plan '
The proposed site plan includes the existing developed structures, parking, and storage areas (
on the eastern portion of the site. The only changes proposed in this area are a new access
connection between the existing developed site and the new western expansion area and the
hard surfacing of the access lane in front of the property. The approval of the eastern storage
area in 2014 required that the storage area be reduced to behind the principal structure upon �
ownership of the property. Ownership transfer has occurred, and the removal and restoration
will be a continued requirement for this review. The final grading/site plan will be required to
reflect this condition including the access drive extension. ,

Eastern Developed Area Site Detail
The new western expansion area is proposed to be completed in phases and includes the reten-
tion of the existing maintenance/storage building, employee parking lot construction and striping,
site grading, stormwater management basin creation, tree removal, landscaping, fence installa-
tion, and the future construction of a sales and storage building. The construction of the new
sales/storage building must conform to the City's commercial architectural standards. It will re-
quire an administrative site plan review and building permits. Construction of this structure will
also require that all gravel storage areas on the western expansion site be hard surFaced with
concrete or bituminous and include concrete curb and gutters.

Western Expansion Area Site Detail
Access
The access to the site is not modified by the proposed expansion, and no additional trips to the
site are anticipated other than the occasional delivery of boats and other recreational vehicles
that would be stored and processed on the site.
The applicant is proposing to install a bituminous surface to the previously approved access
drive from their existing parking lot to the 2014 storage area located to the east of the main
building on the site. Hard surFacing was required but never completed. This drive is located in an
area that is on the applicant's property, but it is within a public right-of-way easement created in
the City's favor. Future public improvements in the easement area could impact the new access
drive or require that it be removed. The required reduction of the eastern storage area to behind
the front plane of the principal structure will necessitate that the drive be extended to the relo-
cated storage area. The eastern storage area parcel is being created through the minor subdivi-
sion request that is detailed in this report.

Fencing
The applicant is proposing to install galvanized chain link fencing similar to their existing fencing
around the exterior perimeter of the expansion areas. It is recommended that the front fence
along Highway 61 be constructed with ornamental fencing meeting the City's standard detail
plate for commercial properties or black vinyl-clad chain link fencing. The remaining fence mate-
rials shall meet the ordinance criteria related to commercial fencing.
Tree Preservation
Prior to making application with the City, the applicant removed a portion of the trees from the
site. Because of the post construction identification of this tree removal, the City Attorney nego-
tiated the payment of a tree mitigation fee of $7,000 and the planting of 11 Category B replace-
ment trees on site. This requirement must be satisfied prior to June 1, 2016.

Submitted Landscaping Plan .
The storage and parking area is lacking a minimum of 8 percent vegetation cover. The applicant
is requesting a variance from the minimum landscaping requirements which require 8 percent of
parking areas to be vegetated. It is recommended that additional landscaping be installed in the
in front of the employee parking lot, in the area between the proposed bituminous access drive,
and around the display patio at the front of the main building. A final landscape plan shall be
submitted with the grading application.
Variance Reqest
Because this is being reviewed as a phased development project, the deviation from the parking
lot surface and curbing requirements for commercial properties is not being treated as a vari-
ance. Through the conditional use process, any additional development of the site will require
compliance with City ordinance criteria related to parking lot construction and architectural
design.
The variance being requested is from the City's requirements for landscaping coverage. With
any variance request, the Planning Commission must look to the zoning ordinance for guidance
and direction. City Code Title 11-2-7: Variances, states that:
A. Authority And Purpose: The council may grant variances from the strict application of the provisions of
this title and impose conditions and safeguards in the variances so granted in cases where there are
practical difficulties or particular hardships in the way of carrying out the strict letter of the regulations
of this title.

D. Consideration By Planning Commission; Recommendation: Before authorization of any variances, the �
request therefor shall be referred to the planning commission, and for its recommendation to the city '
council for the granting of such variance from the strict application of the provisions of this title so as
to relieve such practical difficulties to the degree considered reasonable without impairing the intent
and purpose of this title and the comprehensive plan. The planning commission shall recommend '
such conditions related to the variance, regarding the location, character and other features of the
proposed building, structure or use, as it may deem advisable. The planning commission shall make
its recommendation within sixty (60) days after the request is referred to it, unless the applicant re- ',
quests, in writing, that an extension of time for review be granted by the planning commission. i
The planning commission may recommend a variance from the strict application of the provision of '
this title, if they find that: I
1. The variance is in harmony with the purposes and intent of this title. ',
2. The variance is consistent with the comprehensive plan. �
3. The proposal puts the property to a reasonable use. i
4. There are unique circumstances to the property not created by the landowner. I
5. That the condrtions upon which an application for a variance is based are unique to the parcel of �
land for which the variance is sought and are not applicable, generally, to other property within '
the same zoning classification. ,
6. That the purpose of the variance is not based exclusively upon a financial hardship.
7. That the granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to other ',
land or improvements in the neighborhood in which the parcel of land is located. ',
8. That the proposed variance will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent prop- j
erty, or substantially increase the congestion of the public streets, or increase the danger of fire, '
or endanger the public safety. '
In reviewing the ordinance criteria in relation to this case, all criteria could be answered
affirmatively. The applicant's response to the ordinance criteria is attached. �
Minor Subdivision Request
In 2014, the applicant obtained approval to expand the legal non-conforming use onto a leased
portion of the adjacent property to the east. One of the conditions of that approval was that upon
termination of the lease, the fence and gravel be removed,;, or that upon ownership, it would be
combined with the same taxing parcel as the principal use. The applicant has acquired the ;
leased property, and the minor subdivision application will allow for the parcel to be created to �
facilitate the required lot combination. Stormwater management area charges will be required
for the new parcel with the balance of the area charges on the remnant parent parcel to be de- ;
ferred until that property develops in the future. The area charge calculation that will be required
prior to recording the plat is $9,091. The parent parcel is currently leased for agricultural
purposes.

Minor Subdivision Detail
Summary
• The operation of the current nonconforming use on the site has been conducted without any
negative consequences, and the proposed expansion is expected to operate in the same
fashion.
• The proposed commercial expansion is consistent with the designated land use.
• The proposed commercial expansion has been found to be consistent with the balance of
the criteria for issuing a conditional use permit.
Recommendation
The Planning Commission recommended that that the City Council adopt a resolution approving
a minor subdivision of parcel number 36.027.21.41.0006, a landscaping coverage variance, and
a conditional use permit for the expansion of the nonconforming use at 11730 Point Douglas
Drive South to include an expansion of the outdoor sales and storage yard onto a contiguous
property located to the west side of the existing developed property of 61 Marine & Sports.

6.1 61 Marine & Sports — Cases CUP2015-027, V2015-028, MS2015-029
Stu-Mac Properties c/o 61 Marine & Sports, 11730 Point Douglas Drive South, has appiied �
for a conditional use permit to allow the expansion of a legal nonconforming use west of '
the existing property on Parcel ID #36.027.21.42.0003; a variance to allow the expansion to '
be done without adding concrete curb and gutter and asphalt for the boat sales and storage �
area; a variance from the minimum landscaping requirements; a site plan review of the pro- ',
posed expansion; and a minor subdivision to acquire a parcel of land southeast of Lot 1.

Burbank summarized the staff report and recommended approval based on the findings of fact �
and subject to the conditions stipulated in the staff report.
Jack Clinton, Attorney for Stu-Mac Properties, stated that they reviewed the staff report and are I
in agreement with the recommendations and conditions of approval. They are hoping that the
expansion in the area where the two residences are located will occur next year, and the resi- i
dential buildings would be demolished and the new building constructed. ;
Brittain asked if there will be a frontage road along that side of Highway 61 in the future, and if
the septic field would could any issues with a future frontage road. Burbank stated that in the ,
City's 2030 Comprehensive Plan additional extensions of frontage roads and minor arterials
along Highway 61 were identified; however, it would be many years down before that occurs.
The easement area should be large enough to accommodate that. Brittain asked if the place-
ment of the building and septic field would interfere with a future frontage road. Burbank '
responded he is not aware of any interference. Brittain noted that there are campers parked in
front of the primary building and asked it that was allowed. Burbank responded that in the con-
ditions, it states that exterior storage or display would be on the concrete pad in front of the '
principal building; the rest would have to be behind fenced areas.
AI Stewart, 9435 Kimbro Avenue South, explained that the reason those campers are stored
there is that there is currently no room for the campers in the storage area. They are planning
to start on the proposed expansion next spring.
�
Burbank stated that the Fire Department is requiring 20-foot access lanes in the storage area
and staff will work with the applicant on language related to requirement of access lanes prior
to going to Council. The City will ensure that the lanes are maintained, either by a condition or
agreement.
Brittain opened the public hearing. No one spoke. Brittain closed the public hearing. (
