In <br />1990, Mr. Davis determined that an expansion of his warehouse would be necessary. The <br />subject property is zoned R-1 Residential and agriculture is a permitted use in that zone. <br />However, the City Code definition of agricultural uses includes flower nurseries, but without <br />buildings. Therefore, Mr. Davis' operation was determined lawful non-conforming and it was <br />necessary for the City to issue a Conditional Use Permit to allow the expansion of the <br />greenhouse operations. That permit stated that any future expansions or additions of permanent <br />structures to the facility would require amendments to the conditional use permit. In 2000, the <br />City isstted an amended CUP to Mr. Davis to allow for approximately 18,000 square feet of <br />expansions to the greenhouse facility. <br /> <br />Planning Commission/August 5, 2004 <br /> Page 8 of 41 <br /> <br /> <br />
