BACKGROUND

SIGNAGE
Due to the long driveway, Mr. Pitcher has requested that a 1'x 1.5' sign be
allowed at the end of the driveway near Twin Lakes Road. Staff would not
have a problem with a sign this size in the area as long as it is located
outside County right of way and under 5' in height. If this proposal is
approved, a sign permit must be obtained before the sign is erected.
NOISE
Mr. Pitcher has indicated that very little nOIse will be made from his
sharpening business. In past C.U.P. home occupations where noise may
become a potential problem, a condition is often added that if valid
complaints are received regarding noise an immediate review of the home
occupation may be conducted. Staff recommends that this be a condition of
the request.
HOURS OF OPERATION
Mr. Pitcher plans on being open weekday evenings from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. and
7 a.m. to 8 p.m. on weekends. Permitted home occupations are allowed to be
open from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m., therefore, staff does not have a problem with the
hours proposed.
e
TRAFFIC/PARKING
The proposed sharpening business will have only one employee, Mr. Pitcher.
The business will be located in one stall of the detached three car garage.
The will be ample room for Mr. Pitcher's vehicles to be kept in the garage as
well. It is anticipated that no more than three customer vehicles will be at
this site at anyone time. Since the site does have a three car garage,
customer vehicles can park in front of each stall. The site does have a long
driveway which will allow for the stacking of vehicles during busy periods.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff is recommending approval of the conditional use permit request to
operate a sharpening business out of Mr. Pitcher's garage, with the following
conditions:
