By: Zoning Administrator Sylvia Frolik Background: The City has received an application for a conditional use permit from Mr. Holm to establish four volleyball courts and an outdoor bar area on the west side of the Super Bowl structure located at 6720 Highway #10 NW. Observations: The applicant is proposing to eliminate the two existing volleyball courts on the east side of the building and relocate this activity to the west side and increase the number of courts from two to four. The operation of the existing volleyball courts on the east side of the structure was permitted to occur without benefit of a conditional use permit as an extension of the indoor commercial recreational use. The City has on occasion received complaints regarding trespassing onto adjacent residential parcels and noise as a result of the volleyball activities. Therefore, when the applicant approached the City regarding relocating the courts to the west side and increasing the number of courts, it was determined by City Staff that a conditional use permit would be appropriate. The applicant has stated that the establishment of these courts on the west side of the building will not deplete the amount of existing off-street parking spaces on the site. The surrounding parcels to the east, west, and north, and the parcel immediately adjacent on the southwest side of the subject property is currently zoned commercial. The parcel immediately adjacent on the southeast side of the subject property is zoned residential. The applicant has submitted a site plan that proposes to encompass the entire volleyball court area in chain link fence. This chain link fence would be established approximately one foot in from the common property line with the adjacent parcel to the southwest. The actual courts themselves are set back 20 feet from this common property line. In addition, Mr. Holm has entered into a purchase agreement'with Mr. Williams, the owner of the adjacent parcel to the southwest, to acquire an additional 60 feet of property. This transaction will result in an 80-foot buffer between the courts and the newly aligned common property line with the parcel to the southwest. Mr. Williams is contemplating rezoning the remainder of the southwest parcel to residential if Mr. Holm doesn't exercise his option to buy the rest of the parcel. The applicant has proposed to plant some trees along Ebony Street. City Code does not require screening in this area, but it does require a 20-foot-wide landscaped area along the road. The width of this landscaped area on the Super Bowl site is proposed to be 15 feet and will be located between the chain link fence and the courts. The site plan proposes to establish a spruce tree I
