COMMUNJ1 Y P A- W -N /'4 -G' a .DESt.GN 'r ' "MAR K' T RESEARCH r.r......... TO: Kris Danielson FROM: Scott Richards DATE: January 2000 RE: Oak Park Heights Glenbrook Lumber and Supply Y FILE NO: 798.02 .- 00.01 1 have further reviewed the Zoning Ordinance within the l, Industrial District. As � e related to open and outdoor storage w�th, ou are aware the � Y he �on�ng ordnance allows building material sales and storage as permitted uses. g S' Open and outdoor storage is considered discuss City � red a conditional use. Upon ion with the City Attorney and City staff, we have e determined that the intent of the ordinance is to allow indoor storage of building . open � g rnater�als as permitted but any p n or outdoor storage of materials would require a conditional nditional use permit. This interpretation tation is further supported by the fact that ' the Zoning Ordinance defines open storage as "storage of material outside of a bui p building". Please find attached excerpts of the Zoning Ord` p he Oak Park Nei g g �nance. As a result of this interpretation we have Bete � determined that the exterior storage or building materials and wall panels by Glenbrook Lumber � is not compliant with the ordinance. The materials would need to be removed and placed within the building or the applicant could apply for a conditional � d with �onal use permit under the ' provts�ons of the Zoning Ordinance. As we discussed, if the applicant proceeds with ' ' a conditional use permit, the City will lilrcel require fencing around much of the storage Y Y ge area to screen views of the building materials. If you have any questions related to this issue please do not hesitate to call. 77:s e' A; A "A ��.1L ;i ; S'UITE 555 sr, LOuUs PARK, MINNESOTA. , P +'1Oi '7.� ".�.'r ..r •- ..., .. ..... r .. .:; ,' FAN: .�... r . .� r ... .. . �. -.. - r ...... •,... . -.. . .. - r -r -Y r�r•r.r .. .._ . ..a , Z .,... �6 : FAX X6 ..:2 5 g5., 9 $.3 E- NI A IL N A C W I N TE R N ET, c o,I 14 NAC 401.32. 1, INDUSTRIAL DISTRICT 512 595 9837 P . 03/ 5 40132.A.
