Vehicle storage facility means a state licensed garage, parking lot, or any type of facility <br />owned by a person other than a governmental entityfor storing or parking vehicles as <br />defined by state law, where no vehicle repairs or dismantling ofparts is permitted. <br />When deciding the appropriate zoning districts for vehicle storage facilities, it is <br />important to consider the type of operations at these facilities and how that may impact <br />surrounding land uses. It is extremely important that this type of business have access to <br />an arterial street so that towing of vehicles to the storage facility can be achieved along <br />major roadways without entering quiet neighborhoods. Also of importance is the <br />visibility of stored vehicles from the public way, and what sort of aesthetic impact the <br />storage lot may have on the surrounding area. Staff recommends an amendment to <br />Sections 8-105, 12-100, and 22-100 of the Zoning Ordinance, adding Towing and <br />Vehicle Storage Facility as a land use, and listing the use as permitted outright in the <br />Light Industrial and Heavy Industrial districts, and also allowed in the Commercial <br />District with a Specific Use Permit. <br />A motion to approve this item was made by Francine Neeley, seconded by Michael <br />Mosher. Motion carried 7-0. <br />12. Adjournment. <br />There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 6:45 p.m. <br />APPROVED THIS 5" DAY OF NOVEMBER 02, 2020 <br />Chairman <br />
