6a. Old Business—Rog Hardy The following is a summary of the items in the file pertaining to the Rog Hardy, Von Ro CUP approval: 1. March 29, 2002, application for a CUP received from Robert Rickard, building for R.V. Business. 2. April 18, 2002, P& Z Minutes, The question was raised concerning a retail store in that location, because a retail store would be covered in the 371 Corridor Ordinance. Mr. Hardy stated that he would be selling parts, etc. for the motor homes. After discussion it was suggested possibly obtaining a building permit over the counter without the CUP, if the CUP would be postponed. A motion was made and seconded to postpone the application for a CUP until May 16, 2002, noting that postponing the hearing does not guarantee the granting of the CUP at a later date. 3. May 1, 2002, Application was made by Von Ro Corp. for a land use permit for retail sales of parts, expanding business. 4. May 6, 2002, Zoning Permit No. 202 was issued to Robert Rickard and Roger Hardy, dba Von Ro Corp. to construct a building on commercial zoned property. 5. May 16, 2002, Staff Comments: Request to sell Recreational Vehicles and service/repair RV units. Recommended condition#2 was changed at the meeting. (Dennis Slayton's hand-written notes indicate 30—50 units.) Condition# 15 & 16 added at the meeting. 6. May 16, 2002, P&Z Minutes, Mr. Hardy stated after being questioned about number of vehicles on site, there could possibly be 30 to 50 units on the 7 1/2 acres. 7. May 22, 2002, letter to Robert Rickard, carbon copy Rog Hardy, listing the conditions of CUP. (All 16.) 8. July 31, 2002, Slayton's notes, meeting with Bryon, Bryon will supply written description of servicing to be done. 9. August 14, 2002, Slayton's notes on a call with Hardy. 10. August 15, 2002, Letter from Slayton to Von Ro, itemizing conversation of 8/14/02. 11. October 17, 2002, P &Z Minutes indicate 8 to 10 units, to be reviewed in 90 days. Mr. Hardy's recent statements are that he believes he had permission to have up to 50 units on the site. There is certainly discussion of this in the file. Some members of the Planning Commission have indicated that there was to be no sales(service only) or limited sales of serviced units. This is also indicated in parts of the record, including the minutes. If the City wants to pursue reducing the number of units, it does not seem as if Hardy is going to do so voluntarily, at least not to the 8 to 10 range. There is a case the City can make—perhaps even a strong case—that only ten for-sale units would be allowed as per January 2004 Staff Report Page 12
