5.0 STAFF COMMENT: <br />5_ I The City Planner has identified an additional problem with those restaurants located <br />primarily in the B-1-B District along Perimeter Road and East Snelling Avenue Service <br />Drive. Specifically, these restaurants are not permitted due to their size being smaller <br />than 5,000 square feet. Over the past three years a number of these properties have <br />requested zoning compliance letters for banlcs, financial institutions, or insurance <br />companies. Because of poor language, lacic of uniformity and clarity in the Code, Staff <br />was required to state that these restaurants were non-cor�forming uses. <br />5.� Confusing and/or out-of-date restaurant definitions and conflicting az�d/ar absent <br />language in Section 1005 of the Roseville City Code, have lead the City Planner to review <br />and analyze definitions and pezmitted/conditz4nal uses from. nine metropolitan <br />communities. <br />�..� Most municipalities categorize their restaurants by "class", creating cleaner permitted use <br />and conditional use identification. The City of F'axz�a.i�gio�. and Plymouth were selected <br />as having the most current and adaptable definitions for Roseville. <br />�,� PLANNING COMMISSIONACTION: <br />�i.
