Marion County Building Inspection commented that permits would be required. 6. The criteria for approving a conditional use in the ID zone are found in Chapter 17.150.160 of the Marion County Code (MCC): A. The use will not force a significant change in, or significantly increase the cost of, accepted farm or forest practices on surrounding lands devoted to farm or forest use; Surrounding land is zoned ID. Nothing from the site would impact farmland in the area. This criterion is met. B. The proposed use will not, by itself or in combination with existing uses in the community, result in public health hazards or adverse environmental impacts that violate state or federal water quality regulations; The proposed use would be consistent with other uses in the area serving the truck industry and would not, itself, create a public health hazard or adverse environmental impacts that violate water quality regulations. The use will increase traffic to the area by 22 trips a day, which is not a significant amount of traffic in the area that is already heavily trafficked by trucks. In addition, water use on the site will be minimal, according to the applicant’s statement. This criterion is met. C. The proposed use will not, by itself or in combination with existing uses in the community, exceed the carrying capacity of the soil or of existing water supply resources and sewer services; Water would be available to the site from a well and minimal water use is expected. Sewer service is provided by the Brooks Community Sewer District for the business and employees at the site. This criterion is met. D. The traffic generated by the proposed use is consistent with the identified function, capacity, and level of service of transportation facilities serving the community; and Public Works Land Development and Engineering comments indicate that the roadway will be able to support the additional trips if the applicant makes a proportional share contribution toward a future interstate ramp and local road intersection improvements. This can be made a condition of any approval. E. The proposed use will not create significant adverse effects on existing uses or permitted uses on adjacent land, considering such factors as noise, dust and odors. While the use may generate additional noise, it would be consistent with and similar to existing noise in the area from other uses serving the trucking industry. Additionally, other uses in the area generate significantly higher amounts of traffic. No activity on this property is expected to adversely impact surrounding properties and uses. Development will be required to meet the applicable standards of the ID zone (Chapter 17.150 MCC). This criterion is met. F. The proposed use is intended to directly serve the traveling public or trucking industry, or both. No passenger vehicles are proposed to be serviced by the facility. The proposal is to provide tire repair service only to large commercial trucks. This criterion is met. 7. Based on the above findings and conclusions and subject to conditions, the proposal meets the conditional use APPROVED criteria to a establish a truck tire repair shop in the ID zone and is, therefore, .
