Gau, ' Senior Civil Engineer Development Services/Engineering Division SUBJECT: OTHER BUSINESS FOR 12-17-92 PLANNING COMMISSION HEARING: USE TYPE DEFINITION: EQUIPMENT SALES AND REPAIR (CATEGORY: FARM MACHINERY, REPAIR) . ------------------------------------------------------------------ On October 12 , 1992, Site Approval Application No. SA-92-58 was submitted to permit farm equipment repair, specifically of almond and walnut hulling equipment. The site is a 5. 25-acre parcel that is currently zoned AG-40 (General Agriculture; 40-acre minimum parcel size) and contains a 13 , 222 square-foot building to be removed, a 13 , 268 storage building, and a 1, 484 house to be converted to an office.

On December 8, 1992 , during a phone conversation with F the business owner, he gave the following description of the work that his business does. Most of their work is to reconstruct existing huller machines. The hullers are disassembled and brought to the company. The owner of the business redesigns the parts of the huller so that it can be used as a huller and sheller. In that process there may be repair to bearings, conveyer belts, troughs, elevators, shaker decks, or the shelling machine. There may be additional fabricating to the conveyer, elevators, structural tubing or the shelling machines. The types of steel fabrication
