4.O BACKGROUND � 4.1 In 2004, Roseville's City Council enacted a moratorium on new outdoor storage uses in � the Twin Lakes redevelopment area, which included the subject property. Although the � moratorium did not specifically target such uses on this property, 1705 County Road C � fell within the redevelopment area; consequently, Glenn Kloskin of Soater's Outlet could � not apply for the permanent conditional use approval. Instead, the only option for � allowing the outdoor storage of boats in this location was to approve it temporarily with � an Interim Use Permit. The moratorium has since been rescinded. � 4.2 While the approved Interim Use Permit expired in 2007, Soater's Outlet has continued to � operate without incident until today. Planning Division staff has been aware of the fact � that the outdoor storage of boats has been a nonconforming use since 2007, but has not _ had the opportunity until recently to inform Mr. Kloskin that his previous approval was, _ by nature, temporary and that he needs to receive permanent approval of the _ coNDiT1oNAL usE in order to bring the Soater's Outlet use into compliance with the _ zoning ordinance. _ 4.3 This coNDiT1oNAL usE request has been prompted by the applicant's desire to continue _ storing boats outside both for customers whose boats are awaiting repairs and the _ seasonal storage of boats over the winter. _ 5.O STAFF COMMENTS _ 5.1 Section 1007.015 (Industrial Uses) of the City Code permits outdoor storage as a _ coNDiT1oNAL usE in the applicable General Industrial (I-2) District. � 5.2 Section 1013.01 (Conditional Uses) of the City Code requires the Planning Commission � and City Council to consider the following criteria when reviewing a coNDiT1oNAL usE � application: � a. � b. Impact on traffic; Impact on parks, streets, and other public facilities; � c. Compatibility of the site plan, internal traffic circulation, landscaping, and � structures with contiguous properties; � d. � e. � f. Impact of the use on the market value of contiguous properties; Impact on the general public health, safety, and welfare; and Compatibility with the City's Comprehensive Plan. F Secause consideration of these criteria is not a requirement of approving the previous F Interim Use Permit they have not been formally evaluated as they are in coNDiT1oNAL F usE requests. Instead of prospectively assessing the potential impact of a proposed use on F each of the above criteria, Planning Division staff has reviewed its records pertaining to F the Soater's Outlet use at this property during the past several years and determined that F it has had (and is expected in the future to have) no negative impacts on the external F criteria.
