. . Minutes - Plan Commission Page 5 September 16, 1987 children, were considerations that the Plan Commission, as an advisory body to the City Council, must explore. Ms. Schuman agreed that a valid concern of communities was that of pedestrian safety and felt that, with regard to issues of public convenience, the Plan Commission could respond to market decisions which abandon a portion of community needs. Ms. Schuman and Mr. Marsh agreed that a small kiosk selling only snack-type foods presented more vehicle/pedestrian conflict than a larger convenience store catering to an adult grocery market. Mr. Kendall stated that his concerns included the potential traffic flow problems created by the car wash. After an extended discussion, Mr. Marsh moved that the Plan Commission recommend approval of Shell's application for a Conditional Use Permit subject to the fOllowing conditions: 1. A detailed landscaping plan including retaining wall and screen walls shall be submitted to the Director of Planning for review and all landscaping shall be installed and maintained in accordance with the approved plan. 2. Signs shall be in strict compliance with Article 7 of the Zoning Code. 3. Hours of operation for the car wash shall be established with an opening time no earlier than 6 a.m. and a closing time no later than 10 p.m. 4. Doors for public access to the food mart shall be locked no later than 10 p.m. each evening and shall remain locked until at least 6 a.m. the next morning. 5. The operator shall regularly police the property and the adjacent property to the east to remove litter and debris. 6. A sign indicating "No Left Turn" shall be installed near the eastermost exit on to Olive Boulevard. Ms. Kreishman seconded the motion. After further discussion, the motion was passed by a vote of 6-1. Chairman McCauley stated to the applicants that the application and Plan Commission recommendation would be forwarded to the City Council for its consideration on October 5, 1987. AMENDMENTS TO TRUCK PARKING REGULATIONS IN THE MUNICIPAL CODE AND ZONING CODE. Mr. Adams conducted a review of the proposed changes to Chapter 21 of the Municipal Code and to Section 34-52 of the Zoning Code with regard to truck parking and parking and storage of major recreational equipment on private property. The Plan Commission had been charged with the duty of reviewing the proposed changes to Section 34-52 of the Zoning Code and reporting back to the the City Council Sub-Committee on Truck Parking Regulations by the end of the year. Mr. Goldman stated that Plan Commission members had been sent an outline of the suggested changes to the Zoning Code as well as a memorandum by the Zoning Administrator detailing various cities' regulations regarding parking on private property in residential and commercial districts. After several questions and grammatical corrections, Chairman McCauley suggested that the Plan Commission review the proposal after Planning Staff made the suggested changes. Further discussion was postponed until the regular October Plan Commission meeting.
