Recreation Vehicle Sales and Repair Facility (84- SP -15) Gustuson.

and recommendation in its entirety.
Mr. Larry Gustuson, President of Stage Stop, addressed the Commission
and informed them that they are just moving next door, essentially the
use will be what they are using: now. Driveways will be a problem be-
cause they have tentative plans to lease out part of the land to other
businesses and would like to keep all of the driveways. Not sure as
to what part will besplit or leased, it depends on who comes in and
what their needs will be. The fence will be in line on the property
as it now is.

Xenia and Sixth Street are too close together as well as too close to
the intersection and must be closed. A driveway on Sixth Street and
one on Xenia would be acceptable to the City Engineer.
