HARE City Treasurer MOORPARK, CALIFORNIA Gty Ccurcll Meeflng of Ac I f/2i 199.�C, Date: October 29, 1990 (City Council Meeting of 11 -7 -90) � -W, �1 Subject: TEMPORARY USE PERMITS By The purpose of this report is to identify the current practice under which Temporary Use Permits are issued and their authority within The City's Municipal Code. Temporary Use Permits are currently issued under the provisions of Article 45, GENERAL PROVISIONS - OTHER PERMITS AND LICENSES - PROHIBITION: ENFORCEMENT: PENALTIES: as an over the counter Zoning Clearance. Temporary Use Permits, as the name implies, are for a limited duration. Typically these permits are from one day to as such as ninety days. A majority of the Temporary Use Permits are issued for events occurring between one and three days. An example would be a church carnival or a promotional commercial parking lot sale. Temporary Use Permits are issued under the direction of the Director of Community Development and generally receive a review by the Director prior to approval. Conditions are imposed upon all Temporary Use Permits as authorized under Section 0.165 -0.1. Conditions limit the term, and all activities related to the Temporary Use. Violation of these conditions are grounds for revocation of the permit. Some Temporary Use Permit requests receive more review than others, such as permits to film motion pictures. Seasonal sales of Christmas Trees is currently regulated by a minute action taken by the Council in 1988 (See attachments). Inasmuch as it is the City's intent to adopt the County Zoning Code as it's interim code; Temporary Use Permits are more clearly identified and regulated. Within the County Code, Temporary Use Permits are still issued under the provisions of a Zoning Clearance. Staff Recommendation Direct staff as deemed appropriate.

GENOVESE M E M O R A N D U M City Treasurer j TO: The Honorable City Council FROM: Patrick J. Richards, Director of Community Development DATE: October 7, 1988 SUBJECT: CHRISTMAS TREE LOTS With the Christmas season approaching it is inevitable tha a demand will exist to establish Christmas tree sales lots within the city. A review of the zoning code reveals hat 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. We recommend 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 and 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. cc: Steven Kueny, City Manager I 799 Moorpark Avenue Moorpark, California 93021 (805) 529-6864 i 880610/CHRONI PJR:CM:crl Minutes of the City Council Moorpark, California 8 __October H,1988 E.

The voice vote was unanimous. F. Consider proposed means of proceeding with the establishment of a city-wide traffic mitigation fee. Staff recommended Council direct staff as deemed appropriate. Steven Kueny gave the staff report dated October 19, 1988. Councilmembers Galloway and Harper felt a Highway 118 bypass should be built around the City, and that attention should not just be given to Happy Camp Road. Councilmember Brown suggested the City consider a list generated by the Year 2000 committee, and incorporate this list. into our traffic mitigation fee process. Councilmember Harper was concerned the fee would only relate to an access road to the Happy Camp Regional Park project. He felt the proposed traffic mitigation fee process could be the last opportunity the City would have to take care of its traffic problems. Councilmember Brown stated she would like to see the State able to participate -in funding projects, with this local fee method funding the State' s short fall .
