application for a Dwelling in Transit, based on the following Finding of <br /> Fact: <br /> i. The applicant has submitted a building inspection report done by Home Team <br /> Inspection Service that satisfies the requirements of the Code. <br /> All members voted"aye". Motion carried. <br /> b. International Dark Sky Association <br /> Mr. Burslie explained Staff included this information at the request of Planning <br /> Commission Members Wilson and Birch for information regarding the Night Sky <br /> Initiative at the July Planning Commission Meeting. <br /> Planning Commission Member Birch stated some of the steps outlined in the <br /> information will also align with the Green Step Cities the City Administrator has looked <br /> into. <br /> Planning Commission Member Norton noted the International Dark Sky Association <br /> places lights at the top of flag poles, directing light down. <br /> OLD BUSINESS: <br /> a. Ordinance Amendment — Interim Uses, Discussion <br /> Mr. Burslie explained we have discussed this in the past and we will remove this item <br /> unless there are some changes requested. Temporary commercial structures could be <br /> allowed as an Interim Use. <br /> Planning Commission Member Birch stated that an Interim Use is another tool we can <br /> use. Mr. Burslie explained there are different tiers, such as for Grading; there is <br /> Allowed, Permitted, Excluded or Conditional Use. Less than io cubic yards is <br /> permitted, more than io cubic yards requires a CUP, and outside the lake setback <br /> grading is allowed. As Staff we can't pick and choose when to use a CUP or an IUP; the <br /> use dictates which it should be. Conditional Use cannot mean either CUP or IUP. Mr. <br /> Burslie stated the City needs black and white ordinances that state what sort of permit <br /> that is used for each of the types of uses; it must be clearly defined in the ordinance. <br /> Planning Commission Member Birch asked if Staff could look at other city's matrix's to <br /> see how they use Interim Use Permits. Mr. Burslie stated some issue IUP's for Bed and <br /> Breakfasts and Temporary Commercial Structures. Staff was directed to include <br /> Temporary Signs and Temporary Commercial Structures as Interim Uses on the Matr�; <br /> each will need to be defined. <br /> MINUTES 2 <br /> Pequot Lakes Planning Commission <br /> August i5, 2oig <br />
