Staff supports the proposed Conditional Use Permit and reuse of this downtown building. Staff <br /> believes the proposed use of a tattoo/piercing parlor on this particular site is compatible with the B- <br /> 4 zoning as well as the adjacent commercial and office uses. <br /> 2. Staff proposes to allow for future expansion and flexibility with operating hours allowed from 8:00 <br /> AM to 10:00 PM so that other artist(s) could be hired if the owner so desired or if they wished to <br /> adjust their current proposed schedule. <br /> 3. According to Section XXII.A.3. there are three standards which must be met in order to grant a <br /> conditional use permit. The first standard requires that the use be "necessary for the public <br /> convenience at the location." The proposed use is generally compatible with the area along North <br /> Water Street and the parlor will provide a service which can be utilized by residents. <br /> 4. The proposed use also meets the second standard. The facility is located and designed to be operated <br /> in a manner in which the public health, safety and welfare will be protected. The hours of operation <br /> allowed will be between 8:00 AM and 10:00 PM. <br /> 5. Last, the facility should not cause injury to the value of other properties in the area as stated by the <br /> third standard. This is an established studio to be located in a mixed use area. <br /> 6. The Conditional Use Permit has been reviewed by the City's Technical Review Committee. <br /> Planning, Engineering, and Fire have all approved the proposed business location. <br /> STAFF RECOMMENDATION <br /> 1.
