Planning board OKs time-limited permit for truck parking on vacant paved lot
The Planning & Zoning Board unanimously approved a temporary-use permit to allow semi-truck parking on a vacant, paved lot after the applicant removed a previously proposed window-tinting business from the request. The applicant's representative explained zoning and code staff require an address and occupational license to operate legally; the property owner said truck parking had previously occurred on the lot and requested a time-limited permit while longer-term plans are considered.

Staff recommended approval for an initial 6- to 12-month period with the option to request extensions as appropriate. Gerald Lee and Gregory Gay explained the permit is for temporary activation of the site and that permanent uses would require longer-term permitting and compliance.

Vote and next steps

The board approved the temporary use unanimously. The applicant must apply for the occupational license once an address is assigned and comply with permit conditions; staff recommended documentation and periodic inspections as part of the temporary permit.
