Hey Guys, I have several comments/questions on this temporary use document. I will list them then come in to discuss on Tuesday or Wednesday at your convenience. This seems very restrictive, cumbersome, and expensive for a food cart to pull into a space for a day or two.

B.1. Restricting use to C-1 will greatly limit the use. For example, if a food cart wanted to set up in the Tru-Value parking lot, they would not be allowed. I think they should be allowed in any zone other than residential.

B.2. Is there a special rate for a one day permit? We did not require this for the Celebrate Molalla event. Is there a difference between being at an event? If a business brings in food carts for a weekend that becomes an event of sorts.

B.5. Covered in B.11

B.6. Are there federal, state, or county standards?

B.8. How can a food cart place temporary untilities underground? What does screened mean? Does covered mean they can cover them with tape, to hold the cord down? Why do have to be hidden ffrom view ffrom the right-of-way? Can they use a generator?

B.12 Why do they have to comply with MMC 17-4.3?

B.13 Can regular maintenance and cleaning of the exterior be in a seperate section that addresses the condition of the unit?

C.1. Eight hours is a very short time. Would like to see that changed to 16. If an event runs from 8am-10pm (in summer especially) that is a

16 hour window. Does this preclude the semi-permanent placement of a food cart?

C.b.ii. Why?

C.b.iv. Why will they be required to connect to a potable water tank. Quite often there is no water available. Again, I refer to CM and such events. If they set up in Clark Park or on the side of the street, there is no water available.

D.1. Site plan and design review? Doesn't that cost $500?

Thanks, I look forward to meeting with you.
