The applicant, Solange Dao of Dao Consultants, requests a 2-yr renewal of an expired Temporary Use Permit to allow construction worker parking and construction materials laydown associated with the construction of the 520 Church project at 550 Mariposa St. The property would also allow for nighttime and valet parking for patrons of The Mezz and The Abbey. 

City Council approved a Temporary Use Permit in Sept. 2014 (case LDC2014-00218) for construction worker and nighttime valet parking. This 2-yr approval expired on Sept. 8, 2016. The property is currently serving workers of the CitiTower project as well as nighttime valet parking for patrons of nearby businesses. 

The surface of the subject property is primarily compacted dirt and limerock. There is a chain link fence with screening along the property line. 

Approve the requested temporary use permit for one year, with the option for two one-year administrative extensions, subject to the following conditions:

1. The subject property may be utilized only for construction worker and construction equipment laydown associated with the construction of the 520 E. Church project, and for nighttime and valet parking for patrons of The Mezz and The Abbey.

2. The screening installed on the perimeter fence is in disrepair and must be replaced with proper screening.

3.  The Streets and Stormwater Division observed several eroded areas on the west side of the lot and a few on the south side of the lot. The erosion has caused deposits of sand to form in the sidewalk at various locations and is most likely discharging into the stormdrain approximately 25 feet away. The owner must correct this problem promptly and continue to ensure these areas are stabilized in the future.

4. The owner/contractor must provide and maintain a gravel construction entrance/area to prevent dirt from being tracked out onto the street as trucks and heavy machinery egress off the lot.
