Bethel Island Road Contractor's Yard

Bethel Island Road Contractor's Yard

The applicant requests approval of Land Use Permit to allow the establishment of a contractor’s yard for a low voltage pipeline and traffic control contractor on a 1.22-acre lot. The contractor specializes in fiber optics, asphalt restoration and traffic control. The yard would be used for overnight parking of 11 to 13 light and medium duty field vehicles, equipment storage (drill machines, excavator, Bobcat, tools, trailers etc.) and general materials such as coaxial cable reels, vaults, conduit, etc. A westerly portion of the project site has been previously improved with a 260 square-foot office building within a +13,760 square foot paved area. If approved, project activities would include installing compacted gravel over unpaved easterly portions of the property, consisting of approximately 21,275 square feet of the 1.22-acre project site. The graveled area would include a 75’ x 8’ area designated for the storage of materials and a 54’ by 13’ area designated for the storage of equipment. Additionally, three cargo containers for hand tools are proposed immediately east of the existing office building. The site plan includes striped parking for 11 paved standard size employee parking stalls near the site’s Bethel Island Road frontage. Additionally, the plan includes 16 oversize parking spaces (6 paved, 10 graveled) along the site’s Stone Road frontage. Employees of the contractor would visit the site every morning, parking personal vehicles in one of the standard size parking stalls and leaving the site in a company truck for field work. The existing 260 square-foot office building would be available for employees to have morning meetings or to complete paperwork, however, no full-time employees would be present on site and storage would be the primary land use. No new buildings or structural development are proposed for the contractor’s yard.
