CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARING - Appl. #PL2016-184 - SPECIAL USE PERMIT renewal for outdoor storage of temporary storage containers - Walmart, 1000 NE Sam Walton Lane; Walmart Real Estate Business Trust, applicant.

Body
Issue/Request:
The applicant requests renewal of the special use permit to allow for the continued use of 25 temporary storage containers located on the west and southwest areas of the property, to the rear of the building. The applicant requests use of the containers on the property from October 1st to December 31st each year for a period of 10 years. The containers are used for storage of additional inventory during the holiday season.
The original special use permit was approved on October 8, 1996, for a period of 10 years. The original approval granted the use of 18 temporary storage containers from October 15th to December 10th each year. The special use permit was renewed in 2007 for an additional 10 years from the date of the original expiration. As part of the renewal, the number of containers allowed on the property was increased from 18 to 25, and the date range that the containers were allowed to be used on the property was expanded to span from October 1st to December 31st.
