<br />8. Outdoor storage areas must be kept in an orderly condition, permitting vehicular access to <br />all materials or equipment. Lanes at least twenty (20) feet in width shall be required to <br />meet this standard. No portion of the outdoor storage shall be more than fifty (50) feet from <br />any access lane or other drive aisle, nor shall it block access to hydrants, fire sprinklers, or <br />other fire-fighting equipment. Except for construction equipment which is stored or parked <br />in its most compact condition, outdoor storage may not exceed eight (8) feet in height as <br />measured from the ground on which it is located. <br /> <br />St. Paul Utilities has indicated this proposed area will be used for outdoor storage of fabric <br />rolls, pallets of materials, pipe, and other miscellaneous construction materials. Mr. <br />Leahy is aware of this condition for maximum height of eight (8) feet for outdoor storage <br />based on previous inspections. The proposed area as represented will comply with this <br />condition. <br /> <br />9. The storage area shall be fenced and fully screened from adjoining non-industrial property, <br />park and trail areas, and public right of way. Where properly fenced and screened, outdoor <br />storage may encroach into the required side or rear yard setback area. Gates may be <br />excluded from this screening requirement as provided for in Section 903.020.O.6. <br /> <br />The proposed storage area will be fenced and fully screened. The applicant is moving the <br />existing chain-link fence with slats from the rear building line to line up with the front <br />building line, plus add landscaping on the north side of fence. The Building Official has <br />approved the fence permit as submitted. <br /> <br />10. Screening of storage area shall comply with Section 903.020.G, Required Screening, and <br />Section 903.020.F (Fences) of this Ordinance. <br /> <br />The use of a chain-link fence with slats on the west side of the building as an acceptable <br />form of screening was allowed in 1999 (city code was amended in 2008, current language <br />below). This fence complies “as is”, but the requirements for screening under 903.020.G <br />no longer allow for a chain link fence with slats as the sole mechanism for screening. The <br />existing fence is considered to be legal non-conforming. Mr. Leahy’s application to <br />increase the outdoor storage area behind the fence is triggering why additional steps need <br />to be taken to comply with the City’s current screening requirements. <br /> <br />Mr. Leahy has submitted a landscape plan that will provide for plantings on the west side <br />in front of the chain link fence on both sides of the gate. Mr. Leahy is not sure if shrubs <br />and/or vines will be added for landscaping, but will comply with the provision below. With <br />the addition of landscaping, city staff approves the screening as proposed. <br /> <br /> 903.020.G.3 - The screening required herein in all zoning districts shall consist of a <br />solid fence or wall constructed from masonry, brick, wood and/or steel. A chain link <br />fence with slats does not constitute an acceptable screen or qualify as a solid fence <br />The City may permit a chain link security fence with landscape which is designed to <br />create a complete screen within two (2) growing seasons. . <br /> <br />11. Waste or recyclable material shall be contained in a refuse container. All such containers <br />shall be stored within a screened enclosure located behind the front line of the building or
