First Reading of an Ordinance for ZTA #OS-O 1: Zoning Text Amendment to Allow Temporary
Outdoor Stora�e Containers in Commercial Districts
Background
Some commercial businesses over the years have reported a need for temporary storage of seasonal
merchandise. In these cases, it has not been financially prudent for the business owner to make an addition to
their building for space that they need for only a few months during the year. A solution these business owners
have proposed to City staff is to rent a portable storage container and place it on their property for the time
they need it. Current zoning code regulations do not permit such containers in a commercial district — even by
special use permit.
The majority of respondents to the last CounciUCommission survey indicated that they would be interested in
approving a code amendment that would permit temporary storage containers in commercial districts.
Therefore, staff has developed the attached code language for the G2, General Business, and G3, General
Shopping, sections ofthe Zoning Code. The G1, Local Business District, has purposely been omitted from
consideration for this amendment due to the district's minimum lot size. G 1 sites are generally too small to
accommodate and allow for screening of storage containers.
The proposed language would allow a system of applying for a temporary permit for a maximum duration of
90 days. The permit fee would be the same as what the City currently charges for a temporary outdoor sales
permit -$75 with a$300 refundable deposit. Several parameters would need to be met by the applicant to
protect public safety and provide adequate screening. In order for staff to determine if the business could meet
these requirements, the applicant would need to submit a drawing showing how they could meet all of the code
requirements with their completed permit application.
Commission Action
On September 7, the Planning Commission held a public hearing and reviewed the attached materials. No one
from the general public appeared to speak towards the amendment. The Commission unanimously passed a
motion recommending approval of the zoning text amendment as written. Since the Planning Commission
public hearing, staff has noticed that there is an additional section in the G2 and G3 code sections that should
be amended to eliminate any confusion about outdoor storage requirements, so the ordinance language
attached has additional text beyond the text reviewed by the Planning Commission. On September 26, 2005
Council held its public hearing on this matter. No public comment was received.
Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of first reading of ZTA #OS-O 1 as submitted.

Subject: First Reading of ZTA #OS-02: A Zoning Text Amendment Regarding Commercial Parking
Requirements
Background
The City has recently received two parking requirement variance applications in G3, General Shopping,
redevelopment cases. The variances were granted and have triggered an interest in revisiting Fridley's
commercial parking requirements.
Attached is an analysis of what other cities in the Twin Cities area require for commercial parking spaces. The
comparison is not perfect as different cities have different zoning category definitions, but staff did their best
to make a fair comparison.
Currently, Fridley's zoning code requires one parking stall for every 150 square feet of building floor area in
our G1, G2, and G3 commercial districts. The attached spreadsheet shows that the norm is closer to one stall
for every 250 square feet of building floor area. This equates to five stalls per 1,000 square feet. Target
representatives had indicated that their most recent parking studies have shown that they need about 3.8
parking stalls per 1,000 on their busiest day. Therefore, staff is proposing changing the language in Fridley's
Zoning Code to require one stall for every 250 square feet, which equals four stalls per 1,000 — still slightly
over what Target says they need on their busiest day.
Besides changing the standard parking ratio, the proposed amendment would eliminate the different ratios for
office use and speculative buildings. There is no need for these different ratios after the standard ratio is
reduced.
As noted in recent staff reports on parking variance requests, reducing the amount of unnecessary impervious
surface area in the City would not only be more visually appealing, but it would also help reduce surface water
runoff and the heat island effect of large paved areas.
Commission Action
On September 7, the Planning Commission held a public hearing regarding this proposed zoning text
amendment. No one from the public appeared to testify at the public hearing. Following discussion, the
Planning Commission unanimously passed a motion recommending ZTA #OS-02. Council held its public
hearing on this matter on September 26, 2005. No public comment was received at that time.

Staff recommends approval of the first reading of ZTA #OS-02 as submitted.
