APPEAL
OF A PLANNING COMMISSION DECISION (2006-07-CUP) ADDRESSED AS 1310 SIMPSON WAY An appeal of a Planning Commission decision to deny
a Conditional Use Permit for a concrete ready mix batch plant on a 2.02-acre
site in the M-2 (General Industrial) zone, addressed as 1310 Simpson Way. The
plant would consist of aggregate storage areas, two 65-foot high cement storage
silos, conveyor belts to transfer raw materials, a 12,000 gallon diesel fuel
tank, a 320 SF office, and a batch plant. Concrete would be produced by
combining cement, water and aggregates (rock and sand) into ready mix trucks.
It is anticipated that there would be approximately 150 mixing truck trips and
92 delivery truck trips on the site per day. The plant would be open five and
one-half days per week and produce a maximum of 750 cubic yards of concrete per
day
Staff
Recommendations: Approve the appeal and
the Conditional Use Permit with the addition of Condition #35, which limits the
maximum number of truck trips in addition to the amount of material produced (Community Dev./Planning: Jon Brindle)
