PLANNING REPORT
TO: Eric Johnson
FROM: Scott Richards
DATE: November 4, 2015
RE: Oak Park Heights—MAACO Conditional Use—5956 Osgood
Avenue- Conditional Use Permit Review
TPC FILE: 236.02— 15.07
BACKGROUND
Richard Reeves has made application for a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to allow for
open and outside storage of vehicles for a MARCO retail sales office at the Stilhwatar
Crossing, located at 5956 Osgood Avenue North. The request will allow cars to be
stored in the parking lot of the Stillwater Crossings for short periods of time before they
are to be taken to the MAACO facility in Little Canada.
The site Is zoned B-2, General Business District in which open and outdoor storage as
an accessory use is a conditional use. The retail and office use will be contained In the
building but cars will be stored outdoors as part of the business. The request does not
require Site Plan and Design Guideline review in that nothing will be altered on the
outside of the building except for signage.
EXHIBITS
The review is based upon the following submittals:
Exhibit 1: Project Narrative
Exhibit 2: Suite Plan(AB-9040)
Exhibit 3: Retail/Showroom Plan(1.0)

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The proposed use is to occupy 944 square feet of the Stillwater Crossings building.
There will be three parking stalls designated for NAACO's use in the parking lot. There
will be no exterior modifications to the site or the building as a result of this request
The Applicant has provided a narrative explaining the nature of the business as follows:
NAACO of Little Canada would like to use the space at 5956 Osgood Avenue North as
a sales office liar the purpose of writing estimates, and the pickup and drop-off of
vehicles for repel There will be no tools onsite so there can be no repair of any kind at
this location. All vehicles dropped off at 5956 Osgood would then be shuttled to our
repair facility at 3245 Country Drive in Little Canada where the actual repair would be
performed.
Once a car is dropped off the car will be either towed by a tow buck or a two
dolly on that wheeledday. Iib may also use persons contracted by us to drive the vehicles to
and from our shop. These vehicles would require only minor body repairs. Any cars
which would require major repairs would be towed directly to the Lille Canada shop.
I can envision scenarios where a car may be parked overnight
1. The customer drops a vehicle after hours.
2. The customer Is not able to pick up the vehicle the day that the repairs are
complete.
In either case the car could be perked M one of three parking stalls designated for
Masco's use.
Initially the office will be staffed by one person. Another person would be there only
during a training period after which the staffing would again drop to one person.
ISSUES ANALYSIS
Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan designates this area as Commercial
on the Proposed Land Use Map. The use of the property for a retail sales office and
temporary storage of vehides in the parking lot is a consistent with the Comprehensive
Plan.
Zoning Ordinance. The property is zoned B-2. General Business District In which the
retail sales office is a permitted use. The open and outdoor storage as an accessory
use is a Conditional Use. The proposed business will be consistent with the B-2
District.
The criteria found In Section 401.03.A.7 and 401.30.E of the Zoning Ordinance must be
considered when reviewing a request for this type of business In this District.
2
Page 99 of 200
Conditional Use Permit. The Planning Commission should consider the following
issues and impacts of the proposed project in making its recommendation.
The conditional use permit criteria, found in Section 401.03.7 of the Zoning
Ordinance, are found as follows:
1. Relationshipspecific policies and provisions of the municipal
comprehensive plan.
2. The conformity with present and Mute land uses M the wee.
3. The environmental issues and geographic area involved.
4. Whether the use will tend to or actually depredate the area in which it is
proposed.
5. The impact on character of the surrounding area.
6. The demonstrated need lb such use.
7. Traffic generation by the use in relation to capabilities of streets serving
the prgpet1jr.
8. The impact upon existing public services and facilities including pis,
schools, streets, and ubWties, and the City's service capacity.
9. The proposed use's conformity with all performance standards cont fined
herein {ie., parking, loading, noise, etc).
Comment The short term outdoor storage of the cars should not create an issue for the
shopping center tenants or create any visual Issues at this busy intersection. There
should be no significant environmental issues with this request. Traffic generation will
be minor with one or two employees. The Building Management will need to determine
where the designated parking spots will be for MAACO and an appropriate loading
zone. City Staff sees no issues with the business as currently proposed.
Additionally, the criteria found in Section 401.30.E of the 8-3 District should be
considered:
a. The area is fenced and screened from view of neighboring residential
uses oris abutting a residential district In compliance with Section
407.15.E of this Ordinance.
Comment: The area is commercial with no nearby residential uses or a
residential district.
b. Storage is screened from view from a public right-of--way in compliance
with Section 401.15.E of this Ordinance.
Comment The storage will consist of automobiles that are located in a parking
row of other automobiles. There should be no need for screening.
c. Storage area is grassed or surfaced to control dust.
3
Page 100 of 200
Comment: The storage area is on a paved parking lot.
d. All lighting is hooded and so directed that the light source shall not be
visible from the public right-of way or from neighboring residences and
shall be in compliance with Section 401.15.B.7 of this Ordinance.
Comment The lighting for this shopping center has already been retrofitted to
comply with City standards.
e. The provisions of Section 401.03.A.7 of this Ordinance are considered
and satisfactorily met.
Comment The provisions have been reviewed above.
Parking. Section 401.15.F.9 of the Zoning Ordinance requires six spaces per each
1,000 square feet of gross floor area for a shopping center. The parking calculation for
this site is as follows:
Suite 9000 and 9010—2,548 sq ft x.9=2,293/ 187= 14
Suite 9020-2,579sgftx.9 =2,321 / 167 = 14
Suite 9040-944sgftx .9=849/167= 4
Suite 9050—4,078 sq ft x,9=3,670/167 = 22
Suite 9100-3,325sgftx.9=2,992/ 167= 18
Suite 9120-973sgftx.9=876/167 = 5
Total 77 Stalls
The building requires 77 parking stalls. Suite 9040 will be occupied by MAACO and will
require four parking spaces. The shopping center currently has 94 parking spaces four
of which are disability accessible. The Building Management shall designate three
parking spaces for their MAACO's use. Considering there is a surplus of parking
available,there should not be an issue with the designated spaces.
Car Storage and Loading area. The three designated spaces are to be determined
by the Building Management, but will likely be directly across from the MARCO space
in the row of parking adjacent to Osgood Avenue. City Staff discussed a loading area
for those vehicles that will be towed or transported on a two wheel dolly. The Building
Management shall determine the appropriate area for this to occur. Behind the building
may be best in that there is little traffic or cars that are parked in that area.
Trash Enclosure. Currently, the dumpsters for the building are placed on the west side
of the building and are not screened. The building manager has indicated that they
would be willing to screen the dumpsters. A plan for screening the dumpsters shall be
required for approval by City Staff.

Grading/Drainage/Utilities. There are no exterior changes that require revisions to
grading, drainage or utilities.
Lighting Plans. There are no changes to exterior lighting. The lighting has been
retrofitted in the past to meet City requirements
Landscaping. There are no changes proposed to the existing landscape.
Mechanical Screening. No changes are proposed to the exterior mechanical
equipment.
Signage. A plan has been provided for the exterior sign that will be placed above the
door to the business. The sign appears to comply with the sign standards. Any signage
proposed for the development shall require a sign permit and shall be compliant with the
Zoning Ordinance and Design Standards.
Bike Rack. ft appears as there is no bike rack for this shopping center. A bike rack
shall be installed in a convenient and visible location.
CONCLUSION/RECOMMENDATION
Upon review of the request for a Conditional Use Permit to allow for open and outside
storage of vehicles for a MARCO retail sales office at the Stlllwater Crossing, located at
5956 Osgood Avenue North. City Staff would recommend the project with the
conditions as follows:
1. There shall be no repair or maintenance of vehicles on site.
2. The Building Management shall designate the location of the three stalls
that will be reserved for MAACO's use and determine the loading area
where cars will be towed from.
3. Vehides shall be permitted to be stored for no more than 48 hours on site.
4. A plan and timeline for screening the dumpsters shall be required for
approval by City Staff.
5. All proposed signage shall require a sign permit and shall be in
compliance with Section 401.15.G of the Zoning Ordinance.
6. A bike rack shall be installed in a convenient and visible location.
