A COMMUNITYGROWTH CEt <br /> I N S T I T U T E NO= <br /> Kipertc in Small Torn Plamfitr,, <br /> STAFF REPORT <br /> Application: Ordinance Amendment for Industrial Zone <br /> Applicant: City of Pequot Lakes <br /> Agenda Item:4(c) <br /> Background Information: The Pequot Lakes EDC has been considering both <br /> expansion of the existing industrial park and ways to make better use of the existing <br /> park. One of the ideas that has been discussed is the notion of providing for more <br /> intense use of the existing infrastructure. <br /> The EDC reviewed this on June 17 and recommend these changes, as well as the prior <br /> language for screening and landscaping. The Business Survey indicated that the Park <br /> looked better with the landscaping standard. <br /> Amended Ordinance: <br /> Section 17-5.13 LIGHT INDUSTRIAL(LI) <br /> 1. Purpose and Intent: To provide a zoning classification for light industrial <br /> and heavy commercial uses. Development in this zone requires high automobile <br /> accessibility, municipal water, sanitary sewer service, and municipal stormwater <br /> treatment facilities. Light Industrial zones should be clustered to control <br /> negative impacts of light industrial activities and to efficiently facilitate maximum <br /> interaction between light industrial and heavy commercial enterprises. <br /> 2. Compatibility: The Light-Industrial zone is most compatible with and <br /> should be established adjacent to the Commercial zone, but in some <br /> circumstances may be compatible with the Downtown Mixed-Use, Urban <br /> Residential and Transition Residential zones. The zone may not be established in <br /> an area where it is completely surrounded by residential zones. <br /> 3.
