Regular City Council Meeting Monday,March 25,2013 Page 11 heart of that issue by creating a specific permitted use and then clarifying it within that district, allowing for those protections. Further discussion ensued regarding the specific and higher standards beyond in- dustrial standards that address adjacent residential areas; need to separate the Tar- get retail area from this proposed use; and the likelihood that Target would ever develop as a limited production use negating any need to protect that area. At Councilmember Willmus' concerns regarding the Wilbert Vault property as an example of a limited production/processing use adjacent to a residential area and ensuing problems, Mayor Roe responded that that particular use would likely be grandfathered in, since it was now zoned Office Park, would be a legal, non- conforming use, but unable to expand further under that designation and offering protection to adjacent residential properties. Based on the current requirements for parking, drainage, and other standards with the rezoning now in place, Mayor Roe noted that impacts to neighboring properties had been sufficiently addressed for any redevelopment. Willmus moved, Laliberte seconded, TABLING this item for staff to return with further recommendations and/or options. Roll Call Ayes: Willmus; Etten; McGehee; and Laliberte. Nays: Roe. Motion carried. Mayor Roe noted that it was conceivable that staff may return with their same recommendation. Mr. Paschke sought clarification from the Council on what impact was being reg- ulated beyond concerns about this type of use adjacent to residential properties. b. Adopt a Zoning Text Amendment Creating a Definition for Limited Ware- housing and Distribution and Permitting as Permitted and Conditional Uses within the Regional Business and Office/Business Park Districts Mr. Paschke briefly reviewed this proposed companion text amendment, as de- tailed in the RCA dated March 25, 2013. Mr. Paschke clarified the difference in what was done inside the building versus trucks outside the building. During his research while drafting the proposed definition for limited warehousing and dis- tribution, Mr. Paschke advised that he reviewed that same area and its predomi- nant uses with a variety of trucks. Therefore, Mr. Paschke advised that he had formulated the limit of eight (8) vehicles permitted, and any additional vehicles requiring a Conditional Use. Mr. Paschke further clarified that there was current- ly no such definition in code.
