The Planning Division has reviewed the zoning code <br />and has made the determination that the parking of vending <br />vehicles is a use similar in nature to a freight, bus and truck <br />terminal, which allows the storage and dispatch of larger scale <br />vehicles in the Light Industrial (M-1) zoning district with a <br />conditional use permit. The subject site is located in the M-1 <br />zoning district and is surrounded by industrial uses. The use <br />is compatible with the industrial character of the area and <br />therefore would not be detrimental to the general welfare of <br />persons residing or working in the vicinity. <br /> <br />C. <br /> <br />Will the proposed use adversely affect the present economic <br />stability or future economic development of properties surrounding <br />the area? <br /> <br />The parking of vending trucks at the facility will not <br />adversely affect the economic stability or economic <br />development of properties in the surrounding area. The use is <br />appropriate in an industrial zone and the proj ect has been <br />conditioned to only allow trucks that vend packaged food items <br /> <br />3~~~13 <br />
