Overview
.
The applicant is requesting an amendment to their conditional use permit to allow
a 60 foot wide driveway. The driveway provides access to their site from 171st
Avenue and is currently 36 feet wide. There is a second access to the site from
Ulysses Street. In 1996 LeFebvre Company was granted a conditional use permit
for a 16,000 square foot trucking facility. As part of the site plan for that
conditional use permit, two 36 foot wide driveways, one from Ulysses Street and
one from 171st Avenue were approved. In 1998 LeFebvre Company replatted
their property and amended the conditional use permit to expand the tractor and
trailer storage area. The amended site plan did not include widening the
driveways.

.
The applicant has indicated that the need for a 60 foot wide driveway is driven by
their use of 110 foot tractor/trailer rigs. At the time of the 1996 approval and the
1998 amendment, they did not use these larger rigs. A 36 foot wide driveway is
not wide enough for the larger tractor/trailers to make a right or left turn from
171st into the site.
The site plan includes an extended concrete apron outside of the driveway curb
on 171st Avenue. With this extended concrete apron on both sides of the
driveway, the driveway width at the curb line is 130 feet. The proposed driveway
width at the property line is 60 feet.
The City Engineer will be in attendance at Tuesday's meeting to answer any
questions.
Planning Commission Meeting
At the Planning Commission meeting held on September 26th no one spoke at
the public hearing. The applicant showed a video that highlighted the difficulties
that both oversized and typical tractor/trailers have entering and leaving the site
from 171st Avenue.
Recommendation
.
The Planning Commission and staff recommend the City Council approve
LeFebvre Company's request to amend their conditional use permit to allow a 60
foot wide driveway from 171st Avenue with the following conditions:
1. No oversized trucks shall be allowed to make right turns into the site from
171 st street.
2. All conditions of the previously approved conditional use permits, CU 96-
18 and CU 98-29, shall be complied with.
3. The entrance shall be striped.
4. The landscaping plan which was approved as part of the conditional use
permit shall be completed by May 31,2001
