Commissioner Anderson referenced the proposed building and asked why it would be proposed at two stories. Ms. MacLennan replied that they would have office space above and the additional space would be used to prepare the equipment they install at the business client's location. She noted that part of the space is also personal as it would be connected to their two -car garage. Commissioner Anderson asked if there would be kitchen or restroom facilities. Ms. MacLennan stated that she met with City staff, and they ensured the design would not support someone living in the space. She stated that there would be a small wet bar on the upper level to allow her to wash her hands or have a snack and the main level has a bathroom. She stated that the design would make it inconvenient for living and there is no shower. Chairperson Bauer stated that Commissioner VanScoy expressed concern that the accessory structure could be easily modified from commercial to residential but noted that the structure would be too large to be considered an ADU. He stated that Commissioner VanScoy stated that he could support the request with the stipulation that the CUP states the structure cannot be used for residential purposes. He stated that the condition would prevent a future property owner from converting the structure into a residential use. Ms. MacLennan stated that concern was shared with her from City staff. City Planner McCann noted that condition five of the proposed CUP would prevent habitation. Commissioner Gengler stated that the term conference room gives her pause when the applicant has stated there will be no customers coming and going and asked for details. Ms. MacLennan stated that occasionally there would be a staff person or two coming to the site and that conference room could be used for those times. She noted that perhaps they would have a quarterly staff meeting as well. Commissioner Gengler asked for details on the quarterly staff meeting. Ms. MacLennan replied that typically those would be held around 10 a.m. on a weekday for about two hours. She estimated four people, two of those being outside staff members. Commissioner Peters asked the type of vehicles that would be used. Ms. MacLennan replied that they have personal vehicles that have their business logo that they have used for the past ten years. She stated that they would not be adding additional vehicles. She noted that they have a classic truck and a van her daughter drives that would be parked inside the proposed garage portion of the structure. She stated that if a staff member were to come to the site, they could park inside the garage part of the structure and that vehicle would not be logoed.
