74-932 Self-Service Storage Facility in Designated Areas Within Manufacturing Districts
JUMP TO FULL CODE CHAPTER
On zoning lots in designated areas within Manufacturing Districts in Subarea 2, as shown on the maps in Appendix J (Designated Areas Within Manufacturing Districts) of this Resolution, the City Planning Commission may permit the development, enlargement not permitted pursuant to the provisions of Section 42-121 (Use Group 16D self-service storage facilities), or change of use of a building for self-service storage facility use.
To grant such permit, the Commission shall find that the zoning lot is appropriate for such self-service storage facility use, based on the land use characteristics of the proposed zoning lot and the surrounding area. In making this determination, the Commission may consider the following:
(a) whether such use is consistent with the economic development objectives of the City for the designated area in which the self-service storage facility seeks to be located, and may, in making this determination, consult with the Department of Small Business Services;
(b) whether recent trends for and levels of investment by uses listed in Use Groups 16D (other than a self-service storage facility), 17 or 18 demonstrate that there is minimal demand for space for such uses in the surrounding area;
(c) whether the size and configuration of the zoning lot make it better suited for self-service storage facility use than for other uses listed in Use Groups 16D, 17 or 18;
(d) for changes of use to existing buildings, whether the design and layout of loading docks, interior column spacing, floor-to-ceiling height and other relevant physical characteristics of the existing building make the building better suited for self-service storage facility use than for other uses listed in Use Groups 16D, 17 or 18;
(e) whether the distance of the zoning lot from an arterial highway or a designated truck route, or lack of frontage on a wide street, makes the zoning lot better suited for self-service storage facility use than for other uses listed in Use Groups 16D, 17 or 18;
(f) whether the distance of the zoning lot from mass transit that serves employees makes the zoning lot better suited for self-service storage facility use than for other uses listed in Use Groups 16D, 17 or 18;
(g) whether the establishment of a self-service storage facility will cause environmental remediation work to be undertaken on the zoning lot; or
(h) whether there is a concentration of existing self-service storage facilities in the surrounding area.
The Commission may impose appropriate conditions and safeguards to minimize any adverse effects upon the existing uses in the surrounding area.
