Planning Commission Staff Report <br />5/7/2025 – Parking Regulations – Possible Zoning Code Amendments <br />Page 6 <br />The Mounds View Vision <br />A Thriving Desirable Community <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />This has been simplified in the table as: <br />8 or 10/k sales + 2/k storage; or 1/empl <br /> <br />13) Retail store and service establishment <br /> <br />Mounds View’s current standard – 10/1,1000 sq ft – is double what most cities require: <br />separates out this use for businesses that have significant storage area, which is <br />somewhat unique but I recommend keeping it as is: <br /> <br />At least one off-street parking space for each 100 square feet of retail floor area, plus one per <br />employee <br /> <br />I recommend replacing it with the more common standard: <br />Five spaces for each 1,000 square feet of gross floor areal <br /> <br />This has been simplified in the table as: <br />5/1000 <br /> <br />These recommendations are for discussion. If there is consensus among the Planning <br />Commission members we can prepare ordinance amendments and bring those to a future <br />meeting, then take them to the City Council for a public hearing and adoption. <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Phil Carlson, AICP <br />City Planner <br /> <br />Attachment: Comparative Parking Requirements table
