The site plan as proposed establishes that approximately 40% of the storage will be installed towards the rear of the site at this time. The remaining 10% is proposed to be added towards the rear of the site at a later date. 6. The Zoning Ordinance requires outdoor storage areas to be appropriately landscaped and buffered. 7. The staff report with its recommendation of conditional approval is incor- porated herein by reference as though set forth in full. CONCLUSIONS OF LAW 1. The Zoning Ordinance at Section 18.64.040 sets forth a series of criteria which must be established by the evidence prior to the time that a Conditional Use Permit can be granted. 2. The first of these criteria is that the use as proposed will have no more of an adverse effect on the health, safety, or comfort of persons living or working in the area than will a use generally permitted in the district. The evidence establishes that the type of use proposed by the applicant, to -wit the outdoor storage of pipe, is harmonious with the uses generally anticipated in an M-1 zoning district. 3. The applicant must also establish that the proposal complies with the goals, policies and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan. This criteria is established by the evidence since the site will be adequately buffered and to screen any adverse visual effects. 4. The other requirements .for a conditional use permit have been established by the evidence. For each of the above referenced reasons, the recommendation of the Hearing Examiner to the Auburn City Council on this application for a Conditional Use Permit is approved and affirmed. NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AUBURN, WASHINGTON, DO ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS: Section 1.
