ITEM I: PUBLIC HEARING: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT REQUEST TO
ESTABLISH AN ADDITIONAL OUTDOOR STORAGE USE AT 3300
MEDALIST DRIVE
GENERAL INFORMATION
Applicant: Richard Fisher
Owner: Smet Investments LLC—Scott Smet
Action(s) Requested:
The applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit to establish an additional outdoor storage
use on a previously developed lot.
Applicable Ordinance Provisions:
Outdoor Storage land uses are permitted only through a conditional use permit in the Heavy
Industrial District (HI) as regulated in Section 30-62 (C) of the Zoning Ordinance. Criteria used
for Conditional Use Permits are located in Section 30-382 of the Zoning Ordinance.
Property Location and Background Information:
The 8.92 acre site is located at the southeast corner of Medalist Drive and W. 33rd Avenue,north
of 34t"Avenue and is accessed via entrances/exits from Medalist Drive and W. 33rd Avenue. The
site consists of a 134,130 square foot industrial building and associated parking area. Currently,
it is being leased by Oshkosh Defense for final inspection of vehicles and was previously used
by GE Power Systems for light manufacturing purposes. The property is located within the
Aviation Industrial Park and the surrounding area consists predominately of industrial uses.
The Plan Commission has reviewed and made recommendations on two other outdoor storage
areas on this property. At the July 3rd,2018 Plan Commission meeting, the Commission voted
to recommend approval of a Conditional Use Permit(CUP) to convert a portion of parking on
the northwest edge of the site to secured outdoor storage. The Common Council then voted to
approve the CUP at the July 10t",2018 Council meeting. The second outdoor storage area
straddles the property line between this Medalist property and the property immediately to the
east(under the same owner). The Plan Commission voted to recommend approval of this CUP
at the August 71h,2018 Plan Commission meeting and the Common Council voted to approve
the CUP at the August 15t',, 2018 Council meeting. The outdoor storage area proposed for this
request is the third outdoor storage area proposed for this site.

ANALYSIS
The petitioner is requesting approval of a CUP to convert part of the existing parking area to the
southeast of the building to a secured outdoor storage area for Oshkosh Defense products. The
owner intends to store government-owned vehicles produced by Oshkosh Defense in a secure
area. The storage as proposed will consist of approximately 11,135 sq. ft. (0.26 acres) of paved
storage area. Outdoor storage areas exceeding 500 sq. ft. in area require a CUP. The owner
plans to remove approximately 24 parking spaces as part of the conversion to storage. The
storage lot will not increase the amount of impervious surface area or paving footprint on the
site. However,the petitioner and tenant have changed the scope of work proposed under this
CUP request a number of times. Staff will require that the petitioner submit a revised site plan
showing all property lines with existing and proposed parking calculations to ensure that the
loss of parking does not render the site non-compliant with current ordinance standards.

Item I—CUP/Outdoor Storage—3300 Medalist Dr. 2
Paqe 2
The owner must completely enclose the outdoor storage area with an 8' tall solid fence per
ordinance. The fencing originally proposed as part of the initial application was 8' solid fencing
that complied with the standards. The current site plan shows fencing around the storage area,
but the storage area is not completely fenced off from the access area to the east of the main
building. Outdoor storage areas must be completely fenced off and separate from access and
parking areas. The intent is to avoid "spillover" and storage of materials in areas not originally
designated as outdoor storage. The petitioner will have to submit a revised site plan to
Department of Community Development staff as part of the Site Plan Review process.
Access/Traffic/Vehicle Circulation
The enclosed storage area should not affect vehicle circulation for the publically-accessed areas
of the site as the storage area does not obstruct access to the existing parking areas. The
petitioner intends to secure the area behind the building(to the building's east)with 8' tall solid
security fencing (in tandem with this CUP request for outdoor storage) to control access to the
drive and storage areas at the rear of the building. The existing parking area would lose
approximately 24 stalls with the conversion to outdoor storage. The applicant will have to
submit parking calculations for the site as part of the Site Plan Review process. Staff will have
to ensure that the site is code compliant and that the loss of parking will not render the site non-
code compliant.
Landscaping
Due to the location of the proposed storage lot to the southeast of the building, additional
landscaping is not required as part of this CUP request. Outdoor storage spaces are not subject
to the same landscaping requirements required of new and reconstructed parking areas. The
outdoor storage lot is away from the Medalist Drive and W. 3411'Avenue street frontages. There
is also no additional paved area proposed so there are no ordinance requirements for new
landscaping.
Lighting
The petitioner is not proposing any changes to the existing lighting on the site.
Signage
No sign plans were submitted and the applicant is not proposing any changes to the on-site
signage.
Building Facades
No changes are proposed to the existing building facades as part of this Conditional Use Permit.
Storm Water Management/Utilities
The petitioner has not submitted erosion and grading plans. The petitioner is converting part of
the existing parking area to outdoor storage and is not disturbing or altering the impervious or
pervious surface areas on the site. As long as the petitioner does not alter the impervious
surface area on the site,no storm water requirements are triggered. The Department of Public
Works (DPW)would still review the request to ensure there are no concerns from a DPW
perspective.

Conclusion
Staff is in support of the proposed outdoor storage area as the use should not be detrimental to
the surrounding area, provided that the work will not alter any access drives or traffic patterns
around the site and that the required solid (at least 90% opaque) 8' tall screening (fencing) is
installed around the storage area. If the applicant submits the materials required for Site Plan
Review and complies with the conditions listed below, staff does not have concerns with the
CUP request.
RECOMMENDATION/CONDITIONS
In its review and recommendation to the Common Council on an application for a Conditional
Use Permit, staff recommends the Plan Commission make the following findings based on the
criteria established by Chapter 30-382 (F)(3):
(1) Is in harmony with the Comprehensive Plan.
(2) Would not result in a substantial or undue adverse impact on nearby property, the
character of the neighborhood, environmental factors, traffic factors, parking, public
improvements, public property or rights-of-way, or other matters affecting the public
health, safety, or general welfare.
(3) Maintains the desired consistency of land uses, land use intensities, and land use
impacts as related to the environs of the subject property.
(4) The conditional use is located in an area that will be adequately served by, and will not
impose an undue burden on, any of the improvements, facilities, utilities or services
provided by public or private agencies serving the subject property.
(5) The potential public benefits outweigh any potential adverse impacts of the proposed
conditional use, after taking into consideration the applicant's proposal and any
requirements recommended by the applicant to ameliorate such impacts.
Staff recommends approval of the proposed Conditional Use Permit for an outdoor storage area
at 3300 Medalist Drive with the findings listed above and the following conditions:
1. The outdoor storage area must be completely enclosed by 8 foot tall solid (at least 90%
opaque) fencing. If fencing changes from the product originally proposed to staff and
reviewed, applicant shall submit revised fencing specifications/details to staff for
Department of Community Development review.
2. Petitioner shall submit a revised site plan for Department of Community Development
review.
3. Petitioner shall submit a revised narrative for Department of Community Development
review.
4. No changes shall be made to the existing access drives leading to the site from Medalist
Drive or W. 33rd Avenue.
