or expansion of a nonconforming use. She stated that the property currently has five dealers, and <br />the request would be for ten dealers. <br /> <br />Chairperson Bauer stated that the report states that 29 spaces would be needed for Hirschfield’s <br />which are not provided on the site plan. He noted that he could not imagine Hirschfield’s have 29 <br />customers and employees at the same time, therefore that parking seems excessive. <br />Mr. Touchette stated that he has 37 stalls allocated for Hirschfield’s. <br />Chairperson Bauer stated that with the double row of parking it would appear there is more than <br />adequate parking for all the uses. <br />Senior Planner McGuire Brigl commented that dealers can be hard to keep track of. She stated <br />that when there is an increase in the number of dealers, enforcement tends to increase from the <br />City and State. <br /> <br />Chairperson Bauer asked if the enforcement would go against the property owner or dealer. <br /> <br />Senior Planner McGuire Brigl replied that it goes against the property owner. <br /> <br />Commissioner VanScoy noted that Mr. Touchette would then have a vested interest. <br /> <br />Mr. Touchette confirmed that he does and noted that the dealer that was causing problems is <br />leaving the site this weekend. <br /> <br />Commissioner Anderson asked and received confirmation that the violations have been cleared <br />with the exception of the containers. <br /> <br />Chairperson Bauer noted that the Interim Use Permit would allow the containers until December <br />2021, but it sounds like they will be gone before then. He stated that the parking looks adequate, <br />and a permit has been received for the fence. <br /> <br />Senior Planner McGuire Brigl confirmed that the site plan would be acceptable. She stated that <br />they would want a survey to ensure the gravel does not protrude into the railroad right-of-way. <br /> <br />Commissioner VanScoy stated that the basin was mentioned in return for not paying stormwater <br />fees. <br /> <br />Mr. Touchette stated that in order to classify that as a stormwater pond he would have to go through <br />engineering that would be more than the cost of the fees. <br /> <br />Commissioner Anderson asked if the Highway 10 project would impact this property. <br /> <br />Senior Planner McGuire Brigl confirmed that this property would no longer be impacted. She <br />stated that there would be a frontage road but that would not impact this property. <br /> <br />Planning Commission/ October 28, 2021 <br />Page 20 of 23 <br /> <br />
