PUBLIC HEARING - Appl. #PL2017-205 - SPECIAL USE PERMIT for indoor storage facility - Oakview Storage, 1410 NE Douglas St.; Oakview Capital Partners, LLC, applicant
Body
Issue/Request:
This application is for a new 4-story, climate controlled, 114,448 square foot indoor storage facility located at 1410 NE Douglas Street.

The storage facility is planned to be located further back (west) on the lot, closer to the shared lot line with Polytainers. Placing the building away from NE Douglas Street reserves the street frontage for future commercial development opportunities that require greater visibility.
The proposed indoor storage facility requires a special use permit to allow said use on the subject property. There is no accompanying preliminary development plan application. A preliminary development plan application is not required on PI-zoned property unless a modification were being sought to one of the development standards contained within the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO). The proposed development does not require any modifications. The applicant is requesting removal of one standard condition associated with indoor storage facilities; this does not require a preliminary development plan. If the SUP is approved, a final development plan is required to be submitted for administrative review and approval by staff.

The applicant requests a 25 year time period on the special use permit. Staff supports the requested time period.
