 The property at 3100 Country Drive is zoned PUD District D which says “PUD "D" District is to provide for industrial uses as outlined in Section 914 of the Zoning Ordinance at 3100 Country Drive, Parcel ID Number 06-29-22-11-0019. All Permitted, Accessory, Conditional, and Interim Uses shall be allowed as prescribed in said Section 914, subject to the processing requirements of the applicable zoning regulations in effect at the time.” The owners of 3100 Country Drive could apply for an IUP under our current code language, but it would be to a business zoned I-1 or I-P. The Hardware Hank property is zoned PUD. This amendment scenario would allow for 3100 Country to apply for an Interim Use Permit and have off-site outdoor storage from Hardware Hank since the language is expanded to include properties zoned PUD.  Add a provision to I-1 Interim Use Permit, Off-Site Outdoor Storage – The owner of the storage material owns and operates a home based business in Little Canada in a Residential zoning district. The business owner must also own the residential property which can be verified through Ramsey County Property Records.  This provision should also consider whether or not to allow an occupant of property, but not specifically the owner. In the Schwalbach’s scenario it is a son still living at home, but occupants may also include renters. Staff’s concern with this point would be the ability to verify if they are a permanent/full-time resident/occupant of property (i.e. utility bill was one example given for verification).  Add a provision to I-1 Interim Use Permit, Off Site Outdoor Storage – The owner of the storage material owns the Property for which the off-site outdoor storage is located and they also own a business in Little Canada in either a Business, Industrial, or PUD District.  This provision addresses the matter of common ownership and allows for off- site outdoor storage under this scenario. This amendment would apply to the example of Hardware Hank and 3100 Country Drive LLC property as there is common ownership. However, this provision would not be applicable to Hardware Hank in the future should the Schwalbach’s sell the business. (Note: The amendment above (bullet point #1) would be needed if the Schwalbach’s no longer owned the Hardware Hank business because that property is zoned PUD. Current ordinance language only allows off-site outdoor storage to a Little Canada business zoned I-1 or I-P.)  Amendment to I-1 Conditional Use Permit for Outdoor Storage 914.040.G.4 - The storage is utilized solely by those tenants of the principal building. The amount of outdoor storage area allocated to each tenant is an amount proportionate to each tenant’s occupancy of said principal building. In a multi-tenant building, if one tenant does not have a need for outdoor storage, then the Property Owner may allocate additional outdoor storage area to another tenant of the building only if that tenant occupies more than 30% of the building.  This amendment language would not apply to 914 Interim Use Permit for Off- site Outdoor Storage since that provision states “The storage area meets all of the conditions for outdoor storage listed in Section 914.040.G as if it were accessory to the principal use on the subject parcel, with the exception of 914.040.G.4 of this Ordinance.” The reason behind that is with the Interim Use Permit the applicant is submitting a site plan that shows the designated outdoor
