Elk REQUEST FOR ACTION <br /> River <br /> TO ITEM NUMBER <br /> Mayor and City Council 8.3 <br /> AGENDA SECTION MEETING DATE PREPARED BY <br /> General Business September 17, 2012 Jeremy Barnhart, Planning Manager <br /> ITEM DESCRIPTION REVIEWED By <br /> Request for Authorization to Consider Changes to the Business Cal Portner, City Administrator <br /> Park Zoning District Regulations REVIEWED BY <br /> ACTION REQUESTED <br /> Authorize staff to prepare an amendment to the Business Park Zoning District regulations that would <br /> allow outside storage. <br /> BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION <br /> The Business Park does not permit accessory outside storage. The I-1 and I-3 districts allow outside <br /> storage as a conditional use,provided it is accessory to a principally permitted use. <br /> Staff received a request from a property owner to designate an area of their property for outside storage <br /> (CU 12-17). The storage area is necessary to provide a secure area to store equipment on the property. <br /> This Conditional Use Permit (CUP) is unable to be granted due to its prohibition. <br /> The issues associated with outside storage are commonly aesthetic; outside storage can become disorderly <br /> and detract from the planned,integrated environment originally envisioned for the Business Park District. <br /> If the Council feels that these issues can be sufficiently mitigated via the CUP process, the Council could <br /> direct staff to prepare the appropriate amendments. If the Council has concerns with this type of <br /> accessory use,the Council should suggest no change. <br /> ATTACHMENTS <br /> ■ Business Park Zoning District regulations <br /> Action Motion by Second by Vote <br /> Follow Up <br /> N:APublic Bodies\City Council\Council RCA\Agenda Packet\09-17-2012\BP ord amend.docx 4A f U R E <br />
