SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
Item No. 9.A,
For Meeting of: July 7, 2026
Resolution authorizing Right of Way Use Permit Application
RL260006 for Minado Buffet Inc at 501 N Front St
Suncan Yan of Minado Buffet Inc is requesting approval of a Right of Way Long Term use Permit
application number RL260006 for a used cooking oil container in the city right of way at 501 N Front
Street. The property is located in the GC zoning district.
He previously had submitted a permit application to leave two storage containers in city right of way with
the cooking oil container, but that request was denied by council at the recommendation of the
community development division managers. The division managers then worked with him to find an
agreeable solution, which will be that the storage containers will be relocated onto his private property
and the cooking oil container will be allowed to stay in the right of way with conditions. One condition is
that they will provide a spill pan underneath the container,.
Right of Way Use permits are processed under the provisions of Chapter 8,20, which requires review by
the code administration manager and final approval by the City Council. The permit also requires lability
insurance as prescribed in Section 8.20.060, which will be provided to the Office of Code Administration
prior to issuance of any permit. Approved permits are valid for a period of one year, renewable annually.
This allows the City an opportunity to review any public health/safety/welfare issues that may need to be
addressed in subsequent years.
