Board approves auto‑restoration business permit with conditions for Jeff Richford
Summary
The board unanimously granted a special exception for an automobile restoration business at 2671 South 300 West, approving staff‑recommended conditions including enclosed operations, limited outside vehicles, and hours of operation.
The Board of Zoning Approvals approved 26WSE14, allowing Jeff Richford to operate an automobile restoration business at 2671 South 300 West with conditions intended to limit outside impacts.
Staff described the proposal as indoor restoration work inside an existing pole barn, with concrete pad work and minimal exterior change. Staff recommended conditions on hours (staff suggested 7 a.m.–5 p.m.), enclosed operations, management of batteries/fluids (proper storage and recycling), limits on outside customer vehicles (no more than one per week on average), and standard requirements for lighting, signage and dumpster screening. Petitioner Jeff Richford said the business will emphasize vintage and classic‑car restoration, that work will occur inside the barn largely obscured from the road, and that he expects only one or two customer vehicles at a time given space and the long duration of restoration work.
After a short public hearing with no opposition, the board voted to approve the special exception with the conditions as listed by staff.
