was just added, was read to the Commission, I don’t know exactly well how the land use is going
<br />to come out, but we would agree in principle to that condition. So, we have an unpermitted use,
<br />and there is a complaint. We would honor what the, pending the investigation and everything else,
<br />we would honor the Planning Commission being able to review this permit. So, we’re not, we’re
<br />not arguing about reinstating, I guess, from back in 2004, a condition that was already there.
<br />
<br />UNGER: Okay so, so, essentially, you have read, reviewed, approved the recommendations from
<br />the Planning Department subject to discussion on item 4.
<br />
<br />TRIANTOS: Correct, and, not only read and approved but heard the one that was—
<br />
<br />UNGER: And the addition of proposed—
<br />
<br />TRIANTOS: —placed on today, right.
<br />
<br />UNGER: —condition.
<br />
<br />TRIANTOS: Proposed, proposed condition.
<br />
<br />UNGER: Thank you.
<br />
<br />TRIANTOS: Right. Now as to – and I’ll let my client address these – but as to, I think the
<br />Commission just heard that the Planning Department was willing at, from the inspector, was
<br />willing to allow the safety inspections to continue pending whether or not the Special Permit was
<br />denied or not. It hasn’t been denied yet. We’re asking, so we’re asking for it to be allowed to be
<br />continued. There is no new area, new use, and as you know, when you do a safety inspection on a
<br />motorcycle, it’s not an intensive use of the property. The inspector came out and figured that there
<br />is about 13 vehicles and/or motorcycles per month that come in. So, it’s not a high intensive use.
<br />If you noticed, the time periods for safety inspections are regulated, only eight to ten and only by
<br />appointment, so we don’t think this is a major use of the property. We would ask the Commission
<br />to look at our proposal, and it says that it would be subject only to the permission of the
<br />Department of Transportation. But, I will let my client address that, and then if the
<br />Commissioners have any questions, we’d be happy to address those.
<br />
<br />UNGER: Thank you. Go ahead.
<br />
<br />MCCOLLOUGH: So, just to clarify, my safety inspection license is not suspended; it was
<br />suspended for about 30 days when the complaint came in, and then they reinstated it and allowed
<br />me to do safety inspections again until today’s date to, for a final determination. I had been doing
<br />safety checks for 15 years, and yearly, I get inspected by the County to make sure that I’m up to
<br />par with everything they need, so I just assumed everything I was doing was correct. My bad for
<br />not including it in my special use permit. I realized that after I got my permit that I forgot to
<br />include that. And, I had a choice. Do I just don’t say anything? Do I say something? I actually
<br />did call and said I forgot to do this and they were just, without going into detail, I just left it alone
<br />as advised, and then the complaint came in. So, I had a choice. Give up my license or go through
<br />the whole process again to amend my permit, which was a big process, and having that safety
