REGULAR MEETING
PASCO CITY COUNCIL NOVEMBER 17, 1997
Following calls from Mayor Kilbury for questions from the Council, the
hearing was declared closed
MOTION Mr Strode moved that the City Council deny the special
permit for the Martin RV Park based on the following findings
1) The proposal is inconsistent with Comprehensive Plan Policy LU-
4-B which encourages concentration of commercial activities which are
functionally and economically beneficial to each other,
2) Is inconsistent with portions of Volume II of the Comprehensive
Plan (pages 27-39) which encourages regional retail activities within
the 1-182 corridor,
3) Would greatly increase the percentages of large vehicles and
trailers utilizing an arterial designed and intended primarily for
automobile traffic,
4) Does not benefit from close proximity to recreational, food or
fueling facilities
Mr Lathim seconded the motion Motion carried unanimously
