Eastern Utah Produce. Mr. Nielson had

or Public Works Director on the final plans
submitted. A copy of the confirmation from Gas-N-Go
regarding employee parking and
placement of the Eastern Utah Produce Dumpster was provided to
Commissioners. Commissioner
Hanna-Smith asked Mr. Nielson whether the letter coming from the
manager and not the owner was
sufficient. He stated that the manager had worked at Gas N Go for a long
time and that he had always dealt
with her and believed that she has the authority to issue the letter. Mr.
Nielson stated that he had spoken
to PRWID regarding the sewer and grease traps. PRWID told Mr.
Nielson that he would not have to upgrade the
sewer lines if he were to add frying equipment to the
business but would need a grease
trap. Mr. Nielson stated that he would comply with those requirements. Nick Tatton stated that a sampling manhole
may need to be added and Mr. Nielson would need to check on
that. Mr. Nielson stated that a
sidewalk would be added as well as
understood all of the conditions listed from preliminary approval. Mr.

136 NORTH MAIN- HUNTSMAN
AUTOPLEX, INC. -
Troy Huntsman presented a request for a Conditional
Use Permit (CUP) for concept approval only
for a
used car lot to be located at
district. It is the
recommendation of staff to provide a positive recommendation to the Price City
Council
for concept approval only of the
application. Staff recommends concept approval subject to the following
conditions which being addressed
prior to submission for final approval, were read aloud to Mr. Huntsman
by Chairman Bruno:
·
Completion of a
detailed site plan indicating property boundaries, development attributes,
utility connections, parking requirements, minimum 5% landscaping, etc.
·
Completion of a
PRWID waste water survey and compliance with any conditions resulting from the
survey as requested by PRWID finding.
·
Provide evidence
of utility connectivity by all necessary utility providers finding that
development properly serviced by utility providers mitigates potential negative
health, safety and welfare impacts on the community.
·
Completion of an
environmental review of the project site consistent with the requirements
within Chapter 7 of the Code finding that identifying and mitigating any
environmental impacts at the development site promotes low impact, high quality
development and is consistent with the Price City General Plan.
·
Completion of a
development agreement with the Price City Public Works Department and
submission of the required financial surety for the development of the public
infrastructure necessary to accommodate the development, including curb,
gutter, sidewalks, utility lines, storm water control, hillside erosion
control, etc. Public improvements to be done for temporary use also.
·
Submission of a
qualified storm water management and control plan and a qualified geotechnical
study to the Price City Engineer for review and concurrence with development
consistent with the plan and report finding that development that controls
storm water mitigates the potential for flooding of neighboring land uses.
·
Placement of a
project pending sign at the project location until the beginning of
construction and notification of all property owners within five-hundred feet
(500) of the project site, by registered mail (evidence of mailing to be provided
to Price City) of the project, project schedule, and meeting dates before the
Price City Planning and Zoning Commission finding that providing notification
of potential development to surrounding property owners reduces the potential
for misunderstandings regarding the development and promotes community support.
·
Understanding
that failure to complete permanent, once provided with approval for temporary
uses to begin the development at the project location, in the manner
represented and agreed to in terms of quality of development, time-line for
development, etc. may be considered non-compliance with the terms of approval
of the CUP and lead to revocation of the CUP and business license by Price City
finding that any permitted temporary use is approved with the specific
understanding that permanent development will ensue.
The Planning Commission developed a time-line with
Mr. Huntsman, to begin active construction of the
permanent building at the start
of the two (2) year point to permanent facility standards. Mr. Huntsman
stated that he will have a temporary
use mini trailer on the property until the permanent facility is built. He
stated that a permanent hard surfaced
sales lot would not be completed until after the new building is
finished. If he puts asphalt down
now it would have to be torn up to add the new building. Mr. Huntsman
plans to have 2 drain rock for
the gravel base to alleviate tracking of mud. He stated that approximately
100 used cars would be located on
the property for sale. He is researching the possibility of purchasing the
parcel of property across from
this project to add even more vehicles. The total parcel size is .92 acres and
the additional property that he
would like to purchase is approximately .18. The project property will need
an qualified environmental study
to make sure it is free of ground contamination. The property is located
next to 100 north by the overpass and Mr.
Huntsman stated that he would like to have his sales lot as close
to the road for visibility
purposes as possible. He stated that he has permission from UDOT to build on
the
right of way. A letter from UDOT
confirming that encroachment will be necessary. It will be located far
enough from the hillside that he
wont need a retaining wall. A maintenance and repair shop will be added
as part of the permanent
structure for the inventory. All maintenance will be considered minor such as
oil
changes and tire work. The building will be
the same construction style and type as the dealership
in
asphalt by the end of third year.
Mr. Huntsman stated that he sent out 27 letters to surrounding property
owners and has not received any feedback.
No evidence of mailing was provided by Mr. Huntsman. A site
plan and timeline for
construction must be turned in prior to preliminary approval. MOTION.
Commissioner Shook moved to
recommend concept approval only to Huntsman Autoplex. Motion
seconded by Commissioner Hanna-Smith
and carried. ACCEPTANCE. The Commission confirmed the
acceptance and understanding of
the approval conditions by Troy Huntsman.
XI CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT- NEW BUILDING-
PRELIMINARY AND FINAL
600 WEST 200 SOUTH- PRICE II,
LLC-RAY MORLEY FOR SORENSON COMMUNICATIONS
Ray Morley requested an
application for preliminary and final approval for the
M-13 Construction of the Sorensen
Communication/DMV building to be located at 189 South 600 East.
There has been a challenge of the
concept approval and zoning decision to the Board of
Adjustment (
location. The
of the housing development (Wedgewood Villa)
for ingress/egress by the land use proposed herein; and, (2)
the zoning determination that the professional
office use is available within the Multiple Residential 7 (MR-
7) zoning district. That
zone change from MR-7 to CD for
the project location to clear up the concerns from Wedgewood Villa.
The development plan for the
project was altered to potentially satisfy the concern raised by the
Wedgewood Villa owners regarding
the use of the easement at the property line. The change in the
development site plan may
eliminate the need for the
zone change application submitted
by Mr. Morley. The Commission had concerns
about the driveway for
the south parking lot; the determination
on the contested parking spaces formerly accessed via the
easement; landscaping; retaining
wall and location and access to the garbage dumpster to be used by the
development. Mr. Morley has
cleared up some of the items with a new site plan. The BLM letter giving
consent to use a parking space
for the dumpster has not yet been received. Mr. Morley stated that the storm
drainage has been redesigned and
the east side entrance will be closed off with fence. The sewer line will be
connected with City sewer instead
of the PRWID line. Mr. Morley stated that the south driveway will be
25 from the corner with right
turn only. Mr. Ed Ellis, a neighboring resident, commented that a fence
surrounding the property was
taken down prior to footer construction and now all of the garbage and debris
from the surrounding stores is blowing
in his yard. Commissioner Hanna-Smith volunteered to follow up on
the debris issue with neighboring businesses
as part of the Community Progress Committee projects she is
involved with. The blowing trash issue
should not be focused on a new building coming into the
neighborhood but on a problem
that has existed within the area for a long time. Mr. Morley would like the
Commission to grant final
approval for the project. He will meet with the owners of Wedgewood Villa to
work through the current issues
they have with the project. He stated that he feels the pending contingencies
are minor and should not hold
back the project. Nick Tatton stated that the details are not minor and are
important to
Wedgewood Villa issues are
resolved. Chairman Bruno read aloud the conditions that need to be met prior
to final approval although most
have been completed:
·
Completion and
submission of final site plan document indicating no use of easement at east
property boundary to project location, placement of a 6 sight obscuring fence
(white vinyl indicated by Mr. Morley and the fence should be specifically
approved as such) the length of the east property boundary with perpetually
maintained landscaping, all site improvements, utility connections, driveways,
parking spaces.
·
Specific
consideration and approval of the south parking lot driveway to be 25 from 200

Villa property owner or legal counsel indicating satisfaction of development
plans in regard to use of contested easement at project east property line.
