MEMO TO:

Planning and Zoning Commission

FROM:

Cheryl Lindquist, Permit Technician/Deputy City Clerk

SUBJECT:

Resolution No. 7, Series 2023

BACKGROUND

Independent Log Company operates as a Fire Mitigation and Response Company with several components (see narrative). They operate and maintain equipment which is used for wildfire response including trucks, trailers, water trucks, earth moving equipment, and chain saws. For the most part, this equipment is off site at wildfire events during the wildfire season and returns for storage during the winter months. The season and amount of events can vary wildly, but has recently been longer and fires are more frequent than in past years. In addition to wildfire response, the company conducts wildfire mitigation services which primarily include tree cutting and thinning services. The cut trees are then brought to their properties, prepared and used in several ways, depending on the quality and size of the product, including log home construction, wood furniture construction, fence materials and firewood. These uses would most likely be considered "manufacturing" in that there are no retail sales of products from the site.
