6.A LU-2020-0033 For Possible Action: Discussion and possible action regarding a request from Wood Rodgers, Inc (“Applicant”) for a time extension for an approved special use permit (“SUP”) to allow for the construction and operation of a concrete batch plant and rock crushing operation with silos exceeding 45-feet in height, on property zoned General Industrial Airport (“GIA”), located at 4500 Ryan Way, Assessor’s Parcel Number (“APN”) 005-072-06. (Heather Ferris, hferris@4dian8.com)

Staff Summary: The Planning Commission approved this SUP on October 28, 2020, subject to 19 conditions of approval.  On October 21, 2021, a one-year time extension was approved by staff.  The Planning Commission granted an additional one-year time extension at its October 26, 2022 meeting. The applicant had requested a full 18-month extension, but because of staff’s error in agenizing the matter, the Planning Commission could only consider the one-year extension.  Therefore, this item is included in this agenda for the Planning Commission to consider the additional six-month extension as requested.  Carson City Municipal Code (“CCMC”) 18.02.080(8)(c) authorizes the Planning Commission to approve additional extensions of time if circumstances beyond the control of the Applicant result in failure to complete applicable SUP conditions and commence the use.

Staff Summary:  The Applicant proposes to replace an existing auto body paint booth at the existing business.  Although the auto body repair business has been at this location since the 1980’s and there is evidence of building permits, no SUP exists.  The new auto body paint booth will be housed in a newly constructed 1360 square foot metal building.  Carson City Municipal Code (“CCMC”) 18.04.145 allows auto body repair and painting in the LI use district, subject to first obtaining an SUP.  The Planning Commission has the authority to approve the SUP.
