A request is also being made for a variation from the provisions of regarding parking in order to allow a gravel parking surface and a driveway that is approximately 12 feet wide instead of the minimum 24 foot requirement.

A farm is located on this property, and the petition is being made to allow for the sale of a wider variety of goods and for processing goods and food on site. The petitioner is also requesting variations to allow a gravel parking surface.

Zoning and Planning staff have recommended that the requested conditional use is consistent with the map designation of agricultural.
