City Planner Anderson reviewed the staff report and recommendation to adopt Resolution #17- 06-126 granting approval of the Site Plan and Conditional Use Permit for the expansion of a lawful, nonconforming use on the subject property. He stated that the cabinet shop has been operating in this location for over 40 years and while it is tight in terms of expansion, it appears that all minimum setbacks are being met and that the additional two parking stalls required can fit on site. He stated that as long as the applicant provides a Certificate of Survey from a licensed surveyor that confirms this information and revises the plans as outlined in the Staff Review Letter. Councilmember Kuzma asked the applicant for more details on the landscaping for the project. Troy Danner stated that he is open to suggestions but is willing to plant trees or shrubs. Councilmember Kuzma asked if a fence would be feasible. Mr. Danner stated that he would be open to a section of fence but would still need to maneuver a forklift. City Planner Anderson stated that there was discussion regarding fencing of the dumpster. He noted that the applicant needs access to maneuver equipment to access the dumpster and therefore the fence could end up in the right-of-way. He stated that for that reason staff would prefer to work with landscaping plantings. Motion by Councilmember Riley, seconded by Councilmember Kuzma, to Adopt Resolution #17-06-126 Approving a Site Plan and a Conditional Use Permit for the Expansion of a Lawful Nonconforming Use in the B-1 General Business District for Danner's Cabinet Shop, Inc. Further discussion: Councilmember LeTourneau stated that Troy is the third generation of the Danner family to be involved with the cabinet business. He stated that it is great to see the business continue to be a success in the community. Mayor Strommen echoed the comments that it is great to see a local longtime family business thriving in the community. Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Strommen, Councilmembers Riley, Kuzma, Johns, LeTourneau, Shryock, and Williams. Voting No: None. 7.05: Consider Approvals Related to Homestead Road Addition (Project #16-23): Case of CTW Group City Planner Anderson reviewed the staff report and recommendation to approve the Final Plat for Homestead Road Addition. He noted that this is a challenging site to work with based on the amount of wetland and floodplain and the proposed subdivision seems a reasonable use of the property. He noted that the Final Plat is consistent with the approved Preliminary Plat. Councilmember Riley asked for additional information on the rain gardens and how enforcement would occur.
