Public Hearings Commerce City Page 2 City Council Meeting Minutes August 20, 2018 CU-118-18 CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR THE REDUCTION IN THE FLOOR AREA RATIO IN CASE CU-118-18 Mayor Ford opened the public hearing. Planner Caitlin Hasenbalg-Long presented the case. The applicant, Winslow Crane Service, is seeking a conditional use permit for the purpose of reducing the floor area ratio in order to construct a 27,600 square foot building. Due to the large size of equipment, the site layout requires a large amount of space to safely maneuver and store cranes when not in use on a job site, which necessitates a reduced building size. This proposed facility will have space for offices and maintenance bays, including room for future growth of the business. There being no other public testimony, the public hearing was closed. A motion was made by Council Member Huseman, seconded by Council Member Teter, to accept the findings and recommendations of the planning commission. VOTE: Unanimous; all present affirmed A motion was made by Council Member Madera, seconded by Council Member Frank, that this conditional use permit be adopted. VOICE VOTE: Unanimous, all present affirmed. 8. Administrative Council Business Council continued to vote and discuss appointment of the Ward IV candidate.
