The proposed change is for an expansion <br /> in size of the outdoor"garden sales area" on the west side of the building. Since the <br /> Council approved the special use permit in 2004, Mr. Beisswenger has a slight change in <br /> business plans and now wishes to include used power equipment/gasoline engines for <br /> sale in the garden sales area. The pond has changed shape and the number of"proof of <br /> parking" spaces has increased. However, the remaining components of the site plan are <br /> not proposed to be changed. <br /> Mr. Norm Wells, Architect, approached the commission to answer questions regarding <br /> recycling and the garden center. He also expressed his frustration with the problems with <br /> getting the pond approved by the county. It delayed the start of construction and due to <br /> increase building costs forced a change in the plans for the store. <br /> Motion by Baker, Second by Schiferl to CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. <br /> 4 Ayes, 0 Nays, MOTION CARRIED. <br /> Motion by O'Keefe, Second by Schiferl to WAIVE THE READING AND ADOPT <br /> THE ATTACHED RESOLUTION APPROVING SP05-11 and LP 05-07 subject to <br /> the following condition: <br /> I:\COMMISSIONS\PLANNING\Minutes\2005\5-17-05.doc 1 <br />
