Criteria#2: The proposed use will not create an excessive burden on parks, streets, and other public facilities. Criteria#2 Analysis: Storage and staging of semi-trailers is viewed by the City Council to be a similar use to that which was historically conducted on the premises. As such, the City Council believes that the proposed IU would not constitute an excessive burden on streets,parks, or other facilities, especially given the former use as a motor freight terminal. As it is currently operating, few trailers come and go on a daily basis—most sit unmoved for long periods of time. Criteria#3: The proposed use will not be injurious to the surrounding neighborhood or otherwise harm the public health, safety, and general welfare. Criteria#3 Analysis: The City Council believes that, in the short term,the proposed trailer storage would not be injurious to the surrounding neighborhood, especially since the proposed use would generate limited noise, does not deal with chemicals, and would have limited vehicle movements on Fairview Avenue. That said,the proposal continues to have two issues that could potentially harm public health: 1) If the trailers were to contain items that had the potential to leak hazardous materials that could become an environmental concern; 2)the Fire Chief's concerns in the past regarding trailer storage configuration that could become a fire hazard and would be very difficult for the fire department to extinguish if a fire were to occur in the interior. NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, by the Roseville City Council,to APPROVE the proposed INTERIM USE for temporary outdoor storage of semi-truck trailers in accordance with Section §1009.03 of the Roseville City Code, subject to the following conditions: 1.

Trailers parked/stored in the south lot area shall be parked either next to the building or south of the building and must be set back a minimum of 10 feet from the property line with a minimum of 30 feet between trailer and building for a clear drive lane to the rear and around the building. e. Trailers parked in the north parking lot can be parked back-to-back. f. All trailers must have a minimum 5-foot separation between each trailer. g. All trailers shall be on a paved surface and set back a minimum of 10 feet from the north, east, and south property line. h.
