19 4.0 BACKGROUND 20 4. 1 The subject property is guided by the Comprehensive Plan for industrial land uses and is 21 under the new Industrial (1) zoning district, but the property was zoned General Industrial 22 (1-2) District at the time the application was submitted, thus the proposal must be 2'3 evaluated according to those standards. 24 4.2 The existing pile of rubble is the product of the demolition of the former industrial 25 building on the property. The goal of the applicant has been, and continues to be, selling 26 the rubble as base material in construction projects rather than trucking the rubble to a 2 7' landfill. 28 4.3 Outdoor storage of materials (including rubble) was listed among the uses allowed in the 29 1-2 District as a conditionally permitted use; the same is true about outdoor storage in the '30 newly-adopted I District. Although the property owner's intent is to maintain the rubble pile for only as long as it takes to sell the pile, City staff has advised Icritcx to seek ' 2 approval of the pile as an INTERIM USE,, which would both allow Meritex additional time '3'3 to sell the material as intended,, and allow Roseville to regulate the maintenance of the pile and ensure its removal by a specified date. '35 5.0 INTERIM USE APPLICATIONS mm While the current requirements pertaining to INTERIM USE applications are mostly similar 7' to the previous regulations, former Section 1013.09 (Interim. Uses) of the City Code ' 8 established the regulations pertaining to INTERIM USES.

In reviewing [such] applications, the ('11y will establish a specific date or event that 145 will terminate the use on the properly. The ("ouncil will also deters ine that the approval 146 of the interim use would not result in adverse effects on the public health, safety, and 4 7' general we are, and that it will not impose additional costs on the public if it is 148 necessary for the public to take the property in thefuture. 149 5.3 An applicant seeking approval an INTERIM USE was required to hold an open house 50 meeting to inform the surrounding property owners and other interested attendees of the 51 proposal, to answer questions, and to solicit feedback. The open house was held on 52 October 26 2010; the summary of the open house meeting provided by the applicant is 5'3 included with this staff report as Attachment C. 54 5.4 The site plan illustrating the location of the existing pile on the property is included with 55 this staff report as Attachment D. 56 5.5 During the review of the application, the Development Review Committee (DRC), was 5 7' largely unconcerned with the potential of the pile, as proposed, to have any adverse 58 impacts. The DRC was merely interested in ensuring that the silt fencing, installed to 59 prevent any erosion from migrating away from the pile, be properly maintained to 60 preserve its functionality, and ensuring that the pile be completely removed by a definite 61 date. The applicant originally requested permission to maintain the pile until the end of PF I 0-029—RCA-0 1 1011 Page 2 of 4
