Document Description
This is a request to authorize a development plan for The Fruit Yard to facilitate the development of a 9,000 square foot banquet facility, relocation of the existing gas station and convenience market, relocation of the existing "card lock" fueling facility, and construction of a 3,000 square foot retail shell building which includes a drive through establishment of unknown type. The applicant/property owner has also requested authorization for a 322 space vehicle/RV storage (both covered and uncovered spaces) and a 66 space travel trailer park for short term (overnight) stays and a 2.0 acre site for retail tractor (large agricultural equipment) sales. Finally, the request includes a new facility for fruit packing and warehousing, although these uses are consistent with the current zoning of the property. All substantially modified or new uses will include on-site vehicle parking, landscaping, and other accessory uses. As part of the applicant's statement, occasional outdoor special events are held on site, near the 9 acre park area, including fund raising activities to private parties. Thirty-nine acres of the 45 acre site are planted in a variety of stone fruit (cherries, peaches, apricots, and nectarines).
