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, the property owners 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 � The moratorium has since been rescinded.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 remind the property owners that the previous _ approval was, by nature, temporary and that they needed to receive permanent (i.e., a _ coNDiT1oNAL usE) approval in order to bring the Soater's Outlet use into compliance _ with the zoning ordinance. _ 4.3 Although the Planning Commission unanimously supported the approval of the proposed _ coNDiT1oNAL usE, the City Council was not entirely comfortable with the permanent _ approval of the outdoor storage use in the Twin Lakes area. The coNDiT1oNAL usE � application has since been withdrawn, and this INTExiM usE request has been submitted in � its place to temporarily allow the storage of boats outside both for customers whose boats are awaiting repairs and the seasonal storage of boats over the winter. 5.O INTERIM USE APPLICATIONS � Section 1012.09 (Interim Uses) of the City Code establishes the regulations pertaining to 4 INTERIM USES. � 5.1 Section 1012.09A states: The City Council may authorize an interim use of property. � Interim uses may not be consistent with the land uses designated on the adopted Land � Use Plan. They may also fail to meet all of the zoning standards established for the � district within which it is located F 5.2 Section 1012.095 states: The City Council may attach conditions to Interim Use Permits F [sicJ. In reviewing [suchJ applications, the City will establish a specif c date or event F that will terminate the use on the property. The Council will also determine that the F approval of the interim use would not result in adverse effects on the public health, F safety, and general welfare, and that it will not impose additional costs on the public ifit F is necessary for the public to take the property in the future. F 5.3 An applicant seeking approval of an INTExiM usE is required to hold an open house F meeting to inform the surrounding property owners and other interested attendees of the F proposal, to answer questions, and to solicit feedback. The open house was held on F December 1, 2009; nobody attended the open house meeting. E 6.O STAFF COMMENTS E 6.1 Interim uses typically represent departures from what is allowed by the normal zoning � requirements; although the current General Industrial (I-2) District allows outdoor storage as a conditional use, the I-2 zoning appears to be in conflict with the Community PF09-025_RCA_122109 (2).doc Page 2 of 4
