CITY OF ROSEVlLLE SUMMARY OF ORDINANCE No. 1305 AN ORDINANCE AMENDING TITLE 10, SECTIONS 1005.01 THROUGH 1005.09, PERTAINING TO BUSINESS ZONING DISTRICTS The following is the official summary of Ordinance No. 1305 approved by the City Council ofRoseville on February 9,2004: The purpose of this ordinance is to use contemporary terminology and "land uses" in this section of the code, reduce repetition, and include charts for easier reference. This ordinance clarifies and revises language. It adds land use charts and required dimensions charts. The new format consolidates the dimensional requirements on one page and reformats the land uses allowed in the business districts into one standard chart, similar to the work that was done earlier for the residential zoning text. This amendment, if passed, would eliminate approximately forty percent of the duplicated text in this section of the code. For example, the uses are regulated by distance to a state or federal highway. This is old language used when the city had undeveloped land near such roads. Today, the community is 99% developed and this separation issue does not apply. New definitions have been added for each zoning district section, providing a clearer understanding of the uses that may be allowed therein. Districts B-2 through B-4 and SC are primarily retail use areas and is now characterized as such in the land use charts. B-1 is a non- retail, limited office district and B-IB is a limited office and retail district, both are near residential uses. The B-6 zoning district is a mixed use business park district that requires approval of a site-specific PUD to be effective. The ordinance takes effect upon this publication. A printed copy of the ordinance is available for inspection by any person during regular office hours in the office of the City Manager at the Roseville City Hall, 2660 Civic Center Drive, Roseville, Minnesota 55113. A copy of the ordinance and summary is also posted at the Reference Desk of the Roseville Branch of the Ramsey County Library, 2160 Hamline Avenue, Roseville, Mn. 55113, and on the internet web page of the City ofRoseville (www.ci.roseville.mn.us).
