MEMORANDUM
TO The Honorable City Council
FROM: Jaime Aguilera, Director of Community Developmea____�'
DATE: September 28, 1994 (CC council meeting of October 5,
1994)
SUBJECT: CONSIDER ALLOWING TEMPORARY SPECIAL USE PERMIT FOR
TEMPORARY STORAGE OF RECREATIONAL VEHICLES AT AC
CONSTRUCTION SITE LOCATED AT 4875 SPRING ROAD
Background
Staff has been informed that Stephen R. Anderson, owner of the AC
Construction site located at 2875 Spring Road is interested in
using a portion of the existing storage facility for the purpose of
having temporary storage of recreational vehicles.
The existing zoning of the property is CPD (Commercial Planned
Development). The Assessor's Parcel Number is 506- 0- 02 -64. The
site is approximately 6.8 acres.
Discussion
Ordinance Reauirements
Section 8105 -5 of the Zoning Ordinance allows the storage of
recreational vehicles in the M -2 zone only with approval of a
Planning Commission approved Planned Development Permit.
As previously mentioned, this site is zoned CPD and under normal
circumstances, storage of recreational vehicles in the CPD would be
inconsistent with the Zoning Ordinance. However, the property has
been used for several years as a contractor's storage yard and as
such, the existing use is considered a legal non - conforming use and
can continue. Staff is of the opinion that allowing the storage of
recreational vehicles on the site on a temporary basis would be an
extension of the legal non - conforming use and would not constitute
an expansion of the use.
Section 8113 -5.3.2 of the Zoning Ordinance states that a
nonconforming use may be changed to a use that is similar, provided
that it has a parking requirement which is the same as or less than
the nonconforming use, except that the nonconforming use may not be
changed to a use that requires a Conditional Use Permit. The
Director of Community Development has determined that allowing a
PP09228 :94 /9:22&nAA50C794.CC 1
00292
portion of the AC Construction site to be used for recreation
vehicle storage is similar to the existing use on the site.
On September 28, 1994, staff met with Council member Wozniak,
Consultant John Newton, and Ed Tumbleson from the Sheriff's
Department to formulate Conditions of Approval for a Temporary
Zoning Clearance to allow temporary storage of recreational
vehicles at the site.
The following draft conditions have been formulated for the
proposed temporary use:
1. The site is approved to be used as a temporary storage
facility for the storage of recreational vehicles, as
shown on the attached plot plan. The approval is for an
initial period of 18 months with the ability to have one
additional extension not to exceed 6 months. If the
applicant intends to provide recreational vehicle storage
beyond the 18 month period, the applicant shall apply for
a Zoning Ordinance Amendment to allow recreational
vehicular storage in the CPD zone and a Planned
Development Permit. The application must be filed with
the Department of Community Development prior to the
termination of this Zoning Clearance. Upon application
of a Zoning Ordinance Amendment and Planned Development
Permit, the applicant will automatically be granted an
additional 6 month extension, pending determination of
the Zoning Ordinance Amendment and the Planned
Development Permit. The applicant shall bear the total
cost of staff time to process a Zoning Ordinance
Amendment and Planned Development Permit. It is also
understood that by issuance of this Zoning Clearance for
the use of the property for the storage of recreational
vehicles does not guarantee that the City will approve a
Zoning Ordinance amendment for permanent use of
recreational vehicle storage in the Commercial Planned
Development (CPD) zone.
2. The authorized hours of operation shall be from 7:00 a.m.
to 10:00 P.M.
3. There shall be no maintenance or repair of vehicles
allowed on -site.
4. The storage area shall be paved with an all- weather
surface to reduce dust emissions such as gravel, chip
seal or other similar material as approved by the
Director of Community Development.

5. Prior to the issuance of the Temporary Zoning Clearance
for the use of the site for temporary storage of
recreational vehicles, the applicant shall pay for all
staff costs for processing the permit.
6. No additional lighting is permitted on the premises
without submitting of a photometric lighting plan and
obtaining approval for additional lighting by the
Director of Community Development.
7. Prior to use inauguration of the site for storage of
recreational vehicles, the site shall be cleaned of all
debris as determined by the Director of Community
Development.
8. The applicant shall provide a security guard as
determined by the Police Chief upon the first incident of
theft or vandalism at the site.
9. That within 6 months of approval of the Temporary Zoning
Clearance, the existing gas tanks shall be removed or
deposed of in a method as approved by the City and the
Department of Environmental Health Department.
10. On -site signs require approval of a sign permit from the
Department of Community Development.
11. Unless otherwise determined by the Director of Community
Development, the applicant shall provide a waste removal
dumping station for the recreational vehicles within 6
months of approval of the Temporary Zoning Clearance.
12. Unless otherwise approved by the Director of Community
Development, the storage of recreational vehicles shall
be in an east -west orientation. This is to reduce
possible vandalism.
13. The applicant shall keep the Police Department informed
as to how they are to gain access to the property should
the police need to enter the property.
14. The applicant is to submit a plot plan for review and
approval by the Director of Community Development prior
to issuance of the Temporary Zoning Clearance.
The Director of Community Development intends to approve a
Temporary Zoning Clearance for the use of the site for
recreational vehicle storage on October 6, 1994.
