On August 19, 1996, the ordinance was amended deleting storage and warehousing from the I1, I2 and C3 zoning districts and added mini-storage as a conditional use to the I1 and I2 zones. The City Council decided that mini-storage was not the best use of highway frontage and that the ordinance amendment better differentiated the effected zoning districts and better reflect their intended purposes. Ordinance Amendment Staff has drafted the attached ordinance amendment such that it will allow mini-storage in only a relatively few locations in the C3 zoning district. By allowing mini-storage in only unplatted areas and unserviced areas, the intent is to protect the best employment and tax base opportunities of such properties. Recommendation Staff recommended that the Planning Commission recommend approval of an ordinance amendment 99- , allowing "mini-storage" as a conditional use in the C3 zoning district provided: • • That the use is on unplatted land and outside the urban service district • \\elkriver\sys\shrdoc\planning\stevewen\pcmmo\oa99-5.doc LOCATION w , tC�Y�"�. �rrio.� , EiorAlla 4IIMPAICI -v.i/:;?11111‘ilkINVI sn+ ii E"PFI 1— Tve - �O lerTM 11 i�1' _\� �, J, oRONo ..{ 44, _ _44 410.-: -,,,,. •• i,Om = A40 Et p ___......_ -1„.-_-_.„.„!_,.,-,,-,-,-.. -- _.
