Vice Chairperson Van Scoy asked if this were not a home business would the parking be an <br />issue. <br />Associate Planner Gladhill stated under an acre six vehicles are allowed by City Code, and there <br />wasn't concern with the number of vehicles just the commercial nature of the use. <br />Mr. Dahl stated he thinks an 8 foot fence would look worse than his trailer does. <br />Commissioner Cleveland asked what was the purpose of the privacy fence. <br />Associate Planner Gladhill stated that the fence is for screening purposes, the residential off <br />street parking ordinance states that commercial use vehicles and equipment must be 75% <br />screened. <br />Discussion ensued regarding screening of the trailer and difference between screening of trailers <br />and vehicles. <br />Betty Johannsen, 14210 Uranium Street, stated the building blocks her view of the pond. She <br />drove by the space and there is a big pickup truck sitting on blocks without any wheels. She <br />stated her concern that this is something that she would be seeing quite often. <br />Associate Planner Gladhill stated regardless of the home occupation, it would be a violation of <br />the off street parking ordinance and would be followed through with code enforcement <br />procedures. Mr. Dahl would have to abide by the off street parking ordinance. <br />Mr. Dahl explained the situation with the truck and stated it is now off the premise and in the <br />repair shop. <br />Vice Chairperson Van Scoy stated the concern was that the truck was on blocks, it was a <br />temporary situation that has been addressed, and verified that it wasn't the applicant's intent to <br />have vehicles sitting around that are not operable. <br />Douglas Johannsen, 14210 Uranium Street, stated he wanted to clarify that they drove by the <br />house today because of the hearing and that was the reason the question was brought up about the <br />blocks, they don't drive by on a daily basis or they might have known the trucks on the blocks <br />was a temporary situation and then he asked if there was any welding done on the premises. Mr. <br />Dahl shook his head no. <br />Motion by Vice Chairperson Van Scoy, seconded by Commissioner Dunaway, to close the public <br />hearing. <br />Motion Carried.
