Chairperson Nixt closed the regular portion of the Planning Commission meeting at 9:30 p.m. in order to call the public hearing to order. Public Hearing Chairperson Nixt called the public hearing to order at 9:30 p.m. Presentation Associate Planner Dalnes advised that LUmax LLC is applying for a conditional use permit to sell and display vehicles for sale at the property located at 6246 Highway I0 NW. The site is zoned E-2 Employment and guided as Places to Work in the Comprehensive Plan. The proposed use is only allowed by a conditional use permit within this district. The existing building would be used as a sales office. Associate Planner Dalnes noted City Code states that a conditional use permit can be obtained to conduct open or outdoor sales as a principal use within an E-2 Employment district if the following criteria are met: 1) That the use does not take up required parking spaces or loading areas and, 2) That the sales area is surfaced with asphalt or concrete material to control dust. 3) The standards on determining the suitability of ganting the conditional use permit are met, per Section 9.03.05 of City Code. Associate Planner Datnes advised the site is paved ir/accordance with a site plan submitted on November 15, 1995, and was inspected on July 28, 2000. The subject property and the surrounding areas were consciously guided for manufacturing or industrial uses in the 2001 Comprehensive Plan: This fact would put the request in conflict wit-h the requirement that the proposed request is harmonious with the objectives of the Comprehensive Plan.
