The area in which <br />the two trailers are currently located does have some natural screening. This screening consists <br />of several mature pines as well as the five (5) evergreen trees that the Rockows installed this past <br />year. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br /> <br />City Staff is recommending that the Interim Use Permit be approved for a period of five (5) <br />years. Staff is of.the opinion that no major site improvements, such as fencing or a minimum <br />parking surface, should be required as this may ultimately encourage a future owner of this <br />property to utilize this area for outside storage. Also, some of the residents in this neighborhood <br />had voiced their concern during the February 5, 2004 public hearing that, if a structure were. <br />installed, it would create a permanent obstruction to their view of the lake. Thus, if further <br />screening is required, their views may continue to be obstructed after the permit expires. <br /> <br />Commission Action: <br /> <br />Motion to recommend that City Council adopt findings of fact #~ relating to Jeff and <br />Barbara Rockow's request for an interim use permit to allow for outside storage of commercial <br />equipment in the front yard of a residential property. <br /> <br />-and- <br /> <br />Motion to recommend that City Council approve Mr. and Mrs. Rockow's request for an Interim <br />use Permit, based on the findings of fact, to allow for the outside storage of commercial <br />equipment in the front yard of a residential property for a temporary period of time. <br /> <br />-or- <br /> <br />12 <br /> <br /> <br />
