5. Preliminary Consideration

a. Tax Key 733.989.001, 4439 Vettelson Rd. Owner/Applicant, Michael D. Gatzow.  Applicant seeks preliminary consideration of Conditional Use permit for this B1A-zoned property, to allow for razing an outbuilding currently on his property, and constructing a new outbuilding for housing supplies for his siding business, and shop office.

Mr. Gatzow was present.  R. Dupler reviewed.  It was Atty. Chapman’s recommendation that Mr. Gatzow pursue a conditional use.  Mr. Gatzow explained his operation in detail and possible future uses for this building.  E. McAleer recommended that Mr. Gatzow proceed with a conditional use hearing.  M. Carlson stated that the advice given is to go through conditional use process.  The process was reviewed.  Although Mr. Gatzow is looking for some flexibility in terms of future lease ability of a portion of the building, the feedback from the Planning Commission is that the user should be known before they grant the development rights of that specific tenant space.  The best approach would be to pursue the conditional use amendment in order to get the building built and if Mr. Gatzow would want to lease out a portion of the building to come back at a later date.  T. Maney stated that Mr. Gatzow runs a good operation and no complaints have ever been received.  T. Maney stated that the B1A zoning is very restrictive.  The conditional use hearing could be held in October.
