The matter was <br /> reviewed by the Planning Commission in May, at which time they <br /> recommended some changes relative to screening requirements. The <br /> Council then revised Che matter at its May 25`h meeting and discussed <br /> tightening the outdoor storage standards. Given that the full Council was <br /> not present, the matter was tabled until tonight. Blesener further noted <br /> that at a joint workshop of the Planning Commission and the Council held <br /> on May 11`h, there was discussion about the elimination of outdoor storage <br /> in the I-P District entirely. Based on that discussion, the Planning <br /> Commission again reviewed the issue at their June 9`h meeting and <br /> recommended that outdoor storage be eliminated in the I-P District. <br />Blesener noted that if outdoor storage were eliminated from the I-P <br />District, existing CUP's for outdoor storage would be grandfathered in. <br />No new requests for outdoor storage would be allowed, and if a use <br />changed on the property, the existing CUP would become invalid. <br />Blesener noted that two of the four surrounding cities do noC allow outdoor <br />
