STAFF REPORT
Staff recommends approval of the request.
Royce V. Long has been in operation at 5480 Washington with a Specific Use Permit
since March of 2011 and has now entered into a lease for the property located at 4832
Washington Boulevard. Mr. Long states that the property will be used for the
construction and repair of trailers and parts sales. Welding of steel and aluminum will be
done inside the building. All galvanizing of trailers and parts will be done by AZZ
Galvanizing at another location. No use of chemicals that have any odor will be used on
the property. The only dust will be from table and circular saws. All grinding of small
steel items, cutting of plywood or any other type of noisy operation will be inside the
building where plywood walls and insulation have been installed to prevent any
disturbance to neighbors.
Hours of operation are from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday and sometimes on
Saturday. The trailers will be parked inside a fenced area. Mr. Long states that his
company does not work on anything such as chemical tanks or any large vessel type
trailer other than repairing lights on such trailers.
Please note that final occupancy approval is subject to review and acceptance of
submitted plans and field inspections to verify compliance with applicable codes.
