City of Albertville
Planning commision
Per your request I have reviewed the site plan submitted by Miller
Construction for the proposed storage building. The following are the
findings of my review.
1.) The current zoning of the property is B-3, a storage or warehouse
use is not a permitted use or a conditioal use in this zoning
district. (please refer to the definition of warehouse on page 24 of
the Zoning Ordinance)
2.) Drainage plans must be review and approved by the City Engineer
as required by section 1000.9 of the Zoning Ordinance.
3.) Off street parking or loading areas are required to be hard
surfaced. (If the area around the building is considered parking
refer to section 1200.4(h)(13).) (If the area around the building is
considered loading area refer to section 1300.6)
4.) The site plan indcates that trees will be planted along the east
side of the property, but it does not address the landscaping
requirements for the remainder of the perimeter or the size or type
of landscaping proposed, as required by section 1000.7 (c) (1thru4).
Because of the major differences between the proposed development and
the Zoning Ordinance it is my recommendation that the Planning
commision review this matter further as to correct zoning, surfacing
of parking\loading area and landscaping issues.
If you have any questions please feel free to call me at 497-1936.

Albertville - Barthel Mini -Storage

FAX (612) 595-9837
At the Planning Commission meeting last evening, one of the topics of discussion was
the Barthel Mini -Storage. An initial matter upon which I was pressed is why the Zoning
Ordinance, which we drafted, did not make provision for mini -storage, which is a common
activity in many cities. I noted to the City Planning Commission that in fact such uses
were very clearly addressed as they are warehousing and are allowed within industrial
districts. The Commission indicated that there was confusion on this matter and as a
consequence, the Ordinance was amended to specifically allow mini -storage developments
in the B-3 District. While I questioned the rationale for this approach, rather than
possibly rezoning, apparently this issue is resolved for now. You should, however, be
aware of the provision for warehousing and its coverage of mini -storage facilities should
any future situation arise.
Another matter which was discussed with the Planning Commission is the fact that the
Barthel Mini -Storage development, on its first phase, will not exceed one building. As
part of the discussion, I pointed out, however, that if additional buildings are placed
on this given piece of property, it will require a planned unit development conditional
use permit. As cited in the Ordinance, any property which has two principal buildings
requires a PUD. You may want to make note of this fact in the development agreement which
I understand is being drafted at present.
A final matter discussed relative to Barthel was the street frontage which initially is
going to be constructed as a driveway. A matter of some concern was that this street was
not being constructed to full specifications of the City and also a question was raised
as to whether a variance was needed in such a situation. I am suggesting that you check the
Subdivision Ordinance to determine whether an improved street is needed and if this is
in fact the case, you may want to have a variance processed to insure that the matter is
legally approached.
If we can be of help on any other aspect pertaining to this or other cases in the City,
do not hesitate to call.
