City Code Section 1012.09B 4.9 states: The City Council may attach conditions to Interim Use Permits. In reviewing Interim use Permit applications, the City will establish a specific date or event that will terminate the use on the property. The Council will also determine that the approval of the interim use would not result in adverse effects on the public health, safety, and general welfare, and that it will not impose additional costs on the public if it is necessary for the public to take the property in the future. The issuance of an Interim Use Permit is no guarantee that the trailer parking will be given permanent land use status, nor that the Interim Use Permit could even be extended. ëòð ÍÌßÚÚ ÝÑÓÓÛÒÌÍæ 5.1The vacant Meritex triangular parcel is under utilized. In the past, the parcel has been used as a ball field when the Unisys\Meritex office structure at 2555 Walnut was fully occupied. Some of the site has previously been used for trailer storage. 5.2Accepting this request would create a temporary industrial use within an appropriately zoned (I-2, General Industrial) area of Roseville with similar heavy industrial uses. Specifically, to the north is Willamette Industries (light manufacturing and assembly), Old Dutch Foods (snack food processing and distribution) and Triangle Warehouse (distribution/warehouse); to the northwest is Highcrest Unisys Center (office, research and development); to the south is Northstar Financial Forms (office & form printing) and Interstate 35W; to the east is the parking lot for Bonestroo, Rosene, Anderlik & Associates; and to west across Walnut Street is Highcrest Park (office, manufacturing, research, and development). 5.3The Comprehensive Plan consistently has recommended that trucks and trailers move from industrial areas east of the Interstate to the areas west of the freeway, which is designated for industrial uses and primarily zoned general industrial (I-2). Staff has concluded that utilizing the routes indicated will create minimal impact and disruption (vehicle conflicts) to the business along Walnut Street. 5.4Because the City does not desire to create a long term trailer storage facility on the premises and the fact that the adjacent parcel to the west is under a IUP for a similar use, this application/request should be limited to the same time frame as the adjacent site (summer 2007) and be restricted to the parking/storage of a maximum of 225 trailers. êòð ÍÌßÚÚ ÎÛÝÑÓÓÛÒÜßÌ×ÑÒæ APPROVALINTERIM USE 6.1The Community Development Staff recommends of the PERMIT for the reasons stated in Section 5 of the project report dated January 4, 2006, subject to the following conditions: a. The temporary use (truck trailer parking) must be limited to 1-1/2 years - a time period ending on August 31, 2007 (exact time frame as adjacent parcel’s IUP). b. Trailers must be common freight trailers, with a maximum of 225 stored on the site at any one time. Petro-chemical tankers are prohibited. PF3700_RPCA_010406.doc - Page 3 of 4
