SUMMARY
The following are QUESTIONS, CONCERNS, and RESPONSES expressed at
a Neighborhood Meeting for Marine Sports West/ Keulen PUD. The
applicant is proposing a machine shop and boat engine repair shop
in an existing 2000 square foot single story wood frame building on
a .5 acre site. The existing residence on the property will
remain. There was a previous Planned Unit Development on the site
for a retail/wholesale business, which did not include engine
repair or machine shop uses. The business has operated for several
months and is in violation of the RP, Planned Residential, Zoning
District. The applicants were notified by the Zoning Department
that they needed to take measures to correct the violation.
There are two employees on site. The hours of operation would be
Monday through Saturday from approximately Sam to 6pm. Much of the
work is done by appointment as the site can handle a maximum of 5
to 6 boats at one time. Most of the machine shop business is
shipped in and out by UPS. The project would be reviewed as a
Planned Unit Development and must meet the criteria of the Land
Development Guidance System. The property is located at 921 E.
Prospect Road, west of Lemay Avenue and east of Stover Street.
The applicants have revised the PUD, since it was last heard by the
Planning and Zoning Board in November of 1992 to restrict testing
of engines and all repair work to an enclosed area. A note has
been added to the plans to restrict outdoor repair work and engine
testing. In addition, the large engines (as opposed to small
fishing motors) will not be tested on the site.
MEETING PLACE: Barton Elementary School
MEETING DATE: January 20, 1993
MEETING TIME: 7:00 p.m.
CITY PLANNER: Kirsten Whetstone
COMMENTS, QUESTIONS, CONCERNS
1. Can the A -frame structure at the southeast corner of the
property be moved or removed?
APPLICANT: The A -frame will be removed from the site as we
don't need it anymore.
2. Based on what I've heard tonight, I don't have objections to
what you're doing.
3. What about fumes from.the water test tank, will they be safe
inside the building?
APPLICANT: The small engines don't produce enough fumes to be
dangerous, and they are submerged in the water with a lid on
the tank. We tested 16 small engines last year from April to
October, so we don't do that many engines and a test lasts
about 3 to 5 minutes.
4. So, nothing will be repaired or tested outside?
APPLICANT: That is right.
5. What about the "sunset claus", will that remain with the PUD?
APPLICANT: We don't have a problem with that.
6. When will the A -Frame go away?
APPLICANT: We will take it down this weekend and haul it to
my house to use as a swing set as soon as we can.
7. My previous concerns were visible smoke, noise, and odors. If
these go away then I don't have a problem with the business.
8. Will the working hours remain the same as before?
APPLICANT: Yes, we have not changed the hours.
9. What about work on Sunday?
APPLICANT: We will not be open on Sunday, although we may
work on our own boats that day, but since we will be doing
everything inside the building, you shouldn't even know we are
there.
10. Will the motor racks that are outside now be removed.
APPLICANT: Yes, they will be put inside.
11. We realize that you have made a lot of concessions, and we
appreciate that, as neighbors. If these changes are really
made, we don't have a problem with your business there, as
long as it is quiet and there are no fumes, odors, or smoke.
APPLICANT: We have every intention of operating a clean,
quiet business and getting along with the neighborhood and
hope that if there is a problem in the future, that you would
let us know so we can correct it.
