" 7'-'fq..q~ REQUEST FOR COUNCIL DISCUSSION/DIRECTION City Manager Approval: DATE: 07/19/99 ITEM NO: Agenda Section: Allied Building Supply Outdoor Storage Report 1920 County Road "C" (PF3083) 1.0 Background The purpose of this discussion is to explore the possible solutions to Allied Building Supply's outdoor storage dilemma and the reasons why the Company cannot indefinitely adhere to the Council's emergency permit that ends at the end of 1999. Allied wishes to be a cooperative business and neighbor, but expresses concern about the December 1999 deadline and is looking for alternative solutions Allied (with over 30 employees) continues to have large demand for roofing materials which are stored outdoors, ready for delivery to the construction site. Allied's business in roof materials, alone, has unexpectantly increased threefold in the past two years due to roof repairs (and general construction growth). The Company likes the 40,000 s.f. Roseville building because of the central distribution location. Derek Schuck, the Allied Manager, estimates that to close down the roofing division of his company in December (at the end of the current emergency permit), will lay off up to 12 employees. He has worked with the State to find alternative sites, and with realtors to buy or lease a larger site with approved outdoor storage. In addition, the company has explored acquiring other roofing companies if they have outdoor storage with no success to date. Allied is located in an I -I zone. Outdoor storage is not a permitted use within the "1-1" Light Industrial Zone. New outdoor storage was only approved on the Allied site as an emergency measure from March, 1999, through December of 1999. Conditions included: 1. All exterior stored materials shall be placed behind the rear building line of the building and screened from view of front and side property lines with temporary wood fencing as approved by the Community Development Director. 2. All exterior stored materials shall be stored in such a manner to provide emergency access to all sides of the building, as approved by the Fire Marshal. 3. Exterior storage of materials after December 31, 1999 shall be considered a violation of the City Code. 4. The City Council may discontinue the emergency temporary storage as a violation of the City Code without further cause.
