12. Background Goodwin Lumber has been in existence since 1976 and is presently operating under a special use permit for the site dating to 1985. The applicant wishes to expand the operation at the site to include fabrication of pre- engineered flooring product using reclaimed wood.

13. Background The BoCC recently amended the Comprehensive Plan to permit limited wood based industrial uses in the Rural/Agriculture land use designation via the special exception process. The Unified Land Development Code (ULDC) has also been amended to incorporate such uses as permitted uses in the Agricultural zoning district via the special exception process.

14. Applicant Request The applicant is requesting a special exception to continue the exiting mill operation on the site and to permit assembly of pre-engineered flooring product per the Agricultural policies now found in the Future Land Use Element of the Plan. An expansion of the facilities from the present 48,000 square feet to a maximum of 55,000 s.f. is also included in this request.

15. Staff Recommendation Staff recommends that the Commission hear the item and approve the special exception with the conditions and bases as noted in the staff report. Staff finds the request consistent with the Plan and ULDC as noted in the bases in the staff report.
