702 The Honorable City Council
FROM: Patrick J. Richards, Director of Community Development/�).]f"
DATE: October 12, 1988 (CC meeting of 10/19/88)
SUBJECT: CIRISTMAS TREE LOTS
With the Christmas season approaching it is inevitable that a
demand will exist to establish Christmas tree sales lots within the
city. A review of the zoning code reveals that no provision is
included for the sale of Christmas trees as a temporary use.
Inasmuch as Christmas tree lots are a tradition observed by many
residents of Moorpark, provisions should be made for this to
occur. Staff recommends that the City Council adopt, by policy, a
set of standards to regulate Christmas tree lots until more
specific temporary use restrictions can be implemented. Tree sales
could occur only in commercial and industrial zones via a zoning
clearance issued by the Director of Community Development. Such
aspects such as access, lighting, business days and hours available
would also be regulated by the same zoning clearance.
Recommended Action
Adopt by minute action a policy which requires that temporary
Christmas tree sales shall be allowed only on commercial and
industrial zoned property subject to approval of a zoning clearance
by the Director of Community Development.
