National Guard Armory Facility, Located at 1420 East Main St., to Be
Used for a Variety of Events Including Trade Shows, Flea Markets,
Community Events, and Private Parties, Planning Action #2003-105.
Applicant: Oregon Military Department

The city council will reconsider its decision in the above-entitled planning action on May 4, 2004, at 7:00 p.m. at the Ashland Civic Center, 1175 East Main Street, Ashland, Oregon.

The decision being reconsidered was made by the council after a public hearing on November 18, 2003. The decision approved a conditional use permit for the Oregon Military Department with certain conditions. Written findings supporting the decision were adopted by the council on December 2, 2003.

The Applicant (Oregon Military Department) then appealed the decision to the Land Use Board of Appeals (LUBA) on December 23, 2003. Two parties intervened in the LUBA appeal in support of the City, Sidney C. Abrahams and Susan P. Rust. The Applicant, the Intervenors and city staff have agreed to submit to the council a revision of the findings and conditions attached to the conditional use permit. Attached to this notice are the revisions to be considered by the city council.

The city council will consider the revised findings and conditions at the time and place set forth above. No public testimony will be taken at this time as only the parties to the LUBA case, including the Intervenors, will have an opportunity to be heard.

If you have questions or comments concerning this matter, please feel free to contact Susan Yates at the Ashland Planning Department, 541-552-2041, or Paul Nolte, City Attorney, City Hall, 541-488-5350.
