ROSEVILLE PLANNING COMMISSION page# 4 Wednesday, January 4, 1989 Jim Schwalbach from North Heights Hardware stated that a 10 percent limitation would be better and asked if there would be a limit on the area for landscape planting display. Johnson responded that she believed that the regulations would require that they be behind a fence and that the intent is to be fair and equitable to everyone and not have regulations for each individual use. Mike Rasnek from Super America stated that outside merchandising is a real service to their customers and is necessary to provide easy access to heavy materials such as salt and fire wood. Johnson closed the public hearing. DeBenedet stated that staff should review the ordinance and bring back amendments for commissioner consideration in February which would do the following: 1. Screening and fencing requirements should be included for landscape planting material display. 2. The 5 percent limitation should be increased to 10 percent. 3. The sidewalk sale provision should be clarified to stated that sidewalk sales would be allowed 8 days per year per building or site. 4. That an additional permit process for other situations should be included. 5. That hardware stores should be defined. 6. That rental businesses should be included in the regulations. Berry pointed out that the outside display area should not infringe on parking. Goedeke stated at concern that the regulations shouldn't allow the storage of inoperable vehicles. Johnson responded that that is already in the ordinance. Dahlgren indicated that staff will make sure that it is covered in the ordinances. Stokes questioned whether we should be using gross sales area or gross building area to determine the amount of outside display space pointing out that it is difficult to determine gross sales area. Stokes stated that gross building area above grade should be used. Dahlgren replied that most ordinances are based on gross sales area and that this would be better in his opinion.
