City Planning Intern Imihy stated that liquor is not a permitted use and would be a conditional <br /> use, explaining that if a potential business would like to serve liquor, that request would come <br /> before the Council and the decision would be made at that time whether or not to allow that <br /> activity. <br /> Acting Mayor LeTourneau explained that the request would have to be brought forward to a <br /> regular meeting and public comment would be allowed. <br /> Elaine (last name not audible) stated that her position continues that alcohol should not be an <br /> option as a possible opportunity for the site. <br /> Acting Mayor LeTourneau asked for clarification on how that language would appear in the <br /> ordinance. <br /> Community Development Director Gladhill stated that if the Council wishes to eliminate that <br /> opportunity, that could be stricken from the conditional use list. He noted that the Council could <br /> allow the activity as a conditional use and if a potential use seems appropriate, the Council could <br /> attach a list of conditions. He noted that the Planning Commission did recommend including <br /> that as a conditional use and advised that minutes from the Planning Commission were included <br /> in the case. <br /> Councilmember Johns noted that this parcel is within a residential area. She noted that the <br /> ordinance would apply throughout the entire City and therefore perhaps allowing alcohol would <br /> be appropriate for other locations but not be appropriate for this location. <br /> Acting Mayor LeTourneau agreed that while alcohol service would not be appropriate for this <br /> location, the ordinance would be applied throughout the City and alcohol service may be <br /> appropriate in other locations. He asked the resident and received confirmation that she would <br /> be in agreement with leaving the language in, allowing alcohol service as a conditional use, with <br /> the understanding that this ordinance could be applied throughout the City and while that use <br /> may not be appropriate for the parcel bordering her home, it could be appropriate in other <br /> locations. <br /> Terry Petro, 6140 157th Lane NW, stated that he moved into his property in 1979 when the parcel <br /> was occupied by a church. He stated that the church had a need to expand and moved down the <br /> road, selling the parcel to the secretarial service. He stated that a few years later, the secretarial <br /> service business was reduced, and the daycare joined the site. He stated that the Conditional Use <br /> Permit was then expanded to allow a larger building for an expanded daycare service. He stated <br /> that the expanded use has increased the amount of traffic that enters and exits the site daily. He <br /> believed that the daycare business was limited between the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m., <br /> which ensures that the site is quiet during the evening hours. He was concerned that if additional <br /> buildings are added to the site, perhaps those limited hours would not apply. He stated that when <br /> he moved to his home the church was only open on Sundays and Wednesday evenings. He <br /> asked if there is an expiration on the Conditional Use Permit. <br /> City Council/August 28, 2018 <br /> Page 8 of 23 <br />
