Ms. Frolik explained that the City has previously granted permits for temporary office structures in the commercial and industrial areas fo, limited periods of time to accommodate the particular needs of the business. The Planning Commission and City staff are recommending approval of the interim use permit. [0 She noted that Kevm Johnson was present to answer any questions and that a findings of fact is included in the agenda for Council review. Councilmember Beyer noted number 8 in the findings of fact and inquired when the City has granted a similar request when there was not a current business on the property. Ms. Frolik responded that the City has issued nine conditional use permits in the last 10 years but all were augmentigg permanent current structures there except for The Links; that temporary structure was for the manager to live in while the construction was taking place. Councilmember B~yer suggested that number 8 in the findings of fact is not correct, this is actually a different situation. Motion by Councilmember Zimmerman and seconded by Councilmember Beyer to delete #8 which reads: "That the City has granted similar permits in the past".
