2. Hold a Public Hearing and consider a recommendation to the City
Council regarding an amendment to Article 5, Section 5.1 (I)
Wholesale, Distribution & Storage establishing regulations
specifying the location of Mini-warehouse (Self-Storage) uses
throughout the City.
Ms. 011ie stated that at the November 7, 2006 meeting the Commission directed
staff to pursue amending the regulation of Mini-warehouse uses through out the
City. The current Zoning Ordinance allows the use by right within the
Commercial Corridor (CC), the Light Industrial (LI) District and with a Special Use
Permit (SUP) within the Community Retail (CR) District. The proposed
amendment would allow the use by right within the LI and Heavy Industrial
District, with an SUP in the CC District, and would be prohibited within the CR
District.
The CC District as stated in the Philosophy of the Comprehensive Plan is a
commercial land use that provides retail goods and personal services as well as
employment opportunities. The uses support the local residential population by
generating traffic and are located along thoroughfares and major intersections.
The CR District is intended to serve residential neighborhoods with comparison
shopper's goods as well as convenience goods and personal services and
located at major intersections.
Mini-warehouse uses are categorized as Wholesale, Distribution and Storage
Uses within the Zoning Ordinance and are not considered a major traffic
generator.
Therefore Staff is recommending that Section 1.6 Mini-warehouse (Self-Storage)
be amended to reflect as a prohibited use within the CR District, allowed with a
SUP within the CC District, and allowed by right within the LI and HI Districts.
Chairman Larson opened the Public Hearing. With no one approaching the
Commission, Chairman Larson closed the Public Hearing.
A motion was made by Commissioner Onufreiczuk, and seconded by
Commissioner Ames, to recommend approval to the City Council to amend
Article 5, Section 5.1(I) of the Zoning Ordinance. Motion carried 6 — 0.
