Planning and Zoning - Before the Board took action on the request, the applicant requested that the application be changed from a B-3 rezoning to a B-2 rezoning. • 0 The site in question is currently zoned B-1 and is adjacent to land containing the supermarket and the motel. Land across Stickley Drive is zoned B-2. The motel is also zoned B-2. It is the opinion of the staff that B-1 (Neighborhood Business) land will typically be for small parcels located on collector roads adjacent to or in the vicinity of residential neighborhoods. Typically, such areas will not be located in the interchange areas. B-2 zoning is the appropriate zoning for interchange areas. STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: Approval.

We would currently interpret the ordinance to allow such uses in the B-3, M-1, or M-2 districts under the category of warehouses. We had also received a previous similar request from Cambridge Corporation which is attached. There is a national trend towards allowing such retail storage facilities in business areas. The Ordinance Committee has discussed this issue and agreed to consider it as a part of a broader review of business and industrial districts.

I am requesting that the B-2 zoning be amended to allow the use of a Mini Self -Storage business. As you know the current business zoning for self -storage is the B-3 zone. This zone Is intended for commercial activities that may operate in conjunction with production and marketing businesses. This zoning allows large warehouses, wholesale businesses, oper, air display, and tractor trailer traffic. The Self -Storage business is designed to service the storage needs o; residential and businesses. Storage unit sizes generally range from 25 sq. ft. up to 350 sq. ft. and can only be accessed by the tenant of that unit. The goods stored in these units are solely handled by the owner of the goods, anytime the complex is open. This is a clear distinction from general warehousing where the goods are handled by the operator's of the warehouse. The mini self -storage business is a relatively new type of business, so suitable zoning for this use are being considered and adjusted nation wide. An example of zoning in Virginia would be Prince Williams County which allows self -storage in their B-1 zone, their General Business, Retail use Zone, with a special use permit. It is my feeling that this type of business falls into the general intent of the B-2 zoning district in that it is a retail business designed to service the general public. Art added benefit is that this type of business requires a minimum amount of public services relative to the taxes it would pay Frederick County. I certainly appreciate your consideration in this matter. Sincerely, M. Willis White MWWI mac • 31 SOUTH BRADDOCK STREET WINCHESTER, VIRGINIA 22601 (703) 662-2300 Septemte2 1, 1988 M4.

Past and Current Zoning Practices When homeowners, renters, or business people are faced with inadequate storage space for household effects or business supplies, they often find the extra space they need in self-service storage facilities (SSSFs). These facil- ities are designed to meet the need for easily accessible, small-scale storage space. A typical SSSF covers two to three acres and consists of five to six buildings, each con- taining approximately 10,000 square feet of storage space. The size of the storage units can range from 25 square feet to 600 square feet. Internal driveways provide access and parking to individual storage units. The most common type of SSSF consists of a low, flat set of buildings and is usually found in lower -density sub- urban areas. Currently, innovative two- and three-story developments are also being built. These facilities have units on the first floor that are accessible by car and smaller walk-in units on the upper floors. Another form of these developments is found primarily in denser areas of older cities. Industrial buildings or conventional ware- houses are sometimes converted into multistory SSSFs. These buildings are three to four stories high with freight elevators for carrying goods to upper floors. SSSFs originated in the 1960s to provide storage space for apartment dwellers and itinerant oil workers in Texas. The concept spread throughout the Sun Belt in the 1970s and, by 1979, reached the northeastern United States; by 1983 there were over 4,500 of these facilities' Many fac- tors have influenced the rapid increase of SSSF develop- ment. People move more often and, therefore, require short-term storage space. Increasing construction costs have resulted in smaller housing units that do not have traditional garages, basements, or attics, particularly in the Sun Belt states. -Affordable new single-family houses, apartments, and mobile homes are unlikely to have much storage space. Some businesses have found that construct- ing and providing for on -site storage has become prohibi- tively expensive at the same time that the number of rec- ords, files, and equipment they keep has risen. Off -site storage space is an excellent idea and sometimes the only way to solve the problem. As the need for storage space grows, so will the number of • SSSFs. The size of this SSSF indicates a great demand for 1. Richard E. Cornwell with Buzz Victor, Self -Service Storage: The storage space in the area. Handbook for Investors and Managers (Chicago: National Association of Realtors, Institute of Real Estate Management, 1983), 1. �J �J In built-up urban areas, some multistory buildings are being converted into SSSFs. to consider how their community can accommodate the needs of SSSF users and regulate SSSFs fairly. This report will examine some of the issues communi- ties must consider when they regulate SSSFs and will pres- ent the views of a number of communities surveyed by APA as well as examples of local ordinances that are cur- rently in use. TRENDS IN THE REGULATION OF SSSFs Twenty years ago, when the SSSF industry was new on the scene, communities viewed SSSFs as small conven- tional warehouses, hence the common name "mini - warehouse:' This name has been problematic from the industry's point of view. The label has in some cases prevented zoning officials and the public from seeing that these developments differ considerably from warehouses. Warehouses have employees—SSSFs have customers; and warehouses are usually used by manufacturers, whereas families and small businesses use SSSFs. Because the differences between the two uses were not usually per- ceived, zoning ordinances did not distinguish between them, and many communities restricted SSSFs to the same districts as warehouses. With the growth of the SSSF industry, however, zon- ing regulations governing these facilities are changing. As the number of SSSFs increases and people become aware of differences between these facilities and conventional warehouses, many communities are adding regulations specifically referring to SSSFs in their zoning ordinances. a Many communities have also begun to allow SSSFs in commercial and even residential districts. A closer look at two of the major differences between SSSFs and warehouses —traffic generation and the types of users —indicates the need for regulations that take into account the characteristics of each use. The rapid growth of the SSSF industry in the last decade is expected to continue. In a survey APA conducted in TRAFFIC October 1985, approximately 80 percent of the 396 com- The frequency and type of traffic generated by a use munities that responded reported a growing number of are major factors to consider when deciding how it should SSSFs in their jurisdictions; none reported a decline.

Warehouses are usually limited to such districts to accommodate heavy use by large delivery trucks. Studies and history have shown, however, that SSSFs do not generate this kind of traffic. Traffic studies have shown that SSSFs generally receive only two -axle vehicles, not semi -trucks, and that they generate only a small amount of traffic spread over a long period of time? A traffic sample provided by the Lock -Up Self -Storage Centers of Northfield, Illinois, shows the weekly traffic volume generated by an SSSF. Tables 1 and 2 give the results of two data collection periods for a facility in Wheeling, Illinois. This facility has 55,000 square feet of rentable space. This is slightly larger than the average SSSF, which contains about 46,863 square feet of rent- able space, according to a 1982 survey conducted by the industry. Each period of traffic study was a week long — one in July 1985 and the other in October 1985. The most revealing statistics are average number of cars per day and average number of cars per hour. These numbers can be related to the square footage of the facility or the num- ber of storage units, resulting in traffic generation for- mulas that can be useful to planners when reviewing development proposals. These data and results from other traffic studies indi- cate that, for every 100 units in a facility, there is a rough average of one car per hour; 3 in other words, the num- ber of cars entering and leaving an SSSF during an hour is generated by fewer than one percent of the total units. For example, the Wheeling facility's overall traffic count average for July is four cars per hour (390/7=55.7 cars/ day; divide this number by the 14 operating hours per day; the result is approximately four cars per hour). It may be possible to estimate the traffic generated by a par- ticular facility by multiplying the number of units by one percent. The result for this facility is a liberal estimate of six cars/hour (579 x .01 = 5.79). Until better traffic 2. William Toner, Mini -Warehouses, Planning Advisory Service Report No. 324 (Chicago: American Planning Association, 1977), 3. 3. Ibid. SSSF users can usually drive right up to their storage unit. The size of a unit is limited to ensure that a two -axle truck is the largest vehicle needed to move stored items. studies are available, however, it will be very difficult to devise a formula that can give a more accurate estimate of the amount of traffic that a proposed SSSF will gener- ate. But case studies do show that traffic impacts of this use are obviously not as great as has been feared by many communities. Two studies that indicate a much higher rate of traffic generation by SSSFs are Trip Generation by the Institute of Transportation Engineers and the 15th Progress Report on Trip Ends Generation Research Counts by the Califor- nia Department of Transportation, District 4. These pub- lications do not make clear, however, whether there were TABLE 2.

Loading and unloading are done in the alley. other activities existing in conjunction with the self-service storage business, such as the rental of small equipment, that might account for the high traffic rates. USERS Just as SSSFs must be distinguished from conventional warehouses by the type and amount of traffic they gener- ate, they also must be distinguished by who uses them and what they are used for. An estimated 65 to 70 per- cent of SSSF space is rented by people who need more space for storing personal possessions. About half of these users are apartment, condominium, cooperative apart- ment, or mobile home dwellers a The other half is made up of single-family homeowners and other users such as students. The majority of users are without traditional garages, attics, or basements and find the facilities con- venient for storage of seasonal clothing, sports equipment, patio furniture, and the like. Students make use of the facilities for storage of personal items and books during school breaks. The number of commercial users of SSSFs has grown quickly since the facilities were first introduced. One source says that commercial users make up 30 to 35 per- cent of the total market, up from 10 percent initiallys Sales people with excess stock, businesses that find on -site stor- age too expensive, and firms with a large number of inac- tive records and files find the facilities an important part of their operations. As more communities realize that SSSFs are a service for residential and small commercial users, they have begun to create separate regulations for them. APRs 1985 survey reflects the trend toward preparation of specific regulations for SSSFs. In a short questionnaire, we asked about the zoning of SSSFs, the districts in which they were allowed, specific standards for the facilities, and the effec- tiveness of those standards. The survey was mailed to 1,061 city and county planning department directors whose jurisdictions are Planning Advisory Service sub- scribers. There were 396 usable responses, a 37 percent response rate. One hundred twenty-seven communities (32 percent of the respondents) reported that they have specific regulations for SSSFs in their zoning ordinance; 269 respondents (68 percent) grouped SSSFs and ware- houses together. These results point out a change in SSSF zoning since 1977. In APAs 1977 PAS Report (Mini - Warehouses, PAS Report No. 324), only eight percent of the ordinances examined in an informal survey had sep- arate standards for SSSFs. Since few of the communities that treat SSSFs as ware- houses would consider allowing a "warehouse" in a resi- dential district (and frequently even in a commercial dis- trict), the dispersion of these SSSFs for the greater convenience of their users thus will depend in large part on the presence of regulations specific to SSSFs. CONDITIONAL USE VS. PERMITTED USE Although some communities appear to be moving toward allowing SSSFs in some of their more restrictive districts, a number of surveyed communities indicated continued resistance to the developments. Often, the hesistancy to accept the facilities is due to a variety of fac- tors (such as appearance) that residents or officials think make the SSSFs inappropriate in a certain area. One method of dispelling these fears is the conditional use permit (CUP). The CUP allows a community to re- view the proposal on the basis of the entire range of devel- opment issues (e.g., size, appearance, parking). It also allows the local government the opportunity to determine whether a particular location is appropriate for the pub- lic convenience and welfare. In reviewing ordinances, we found an interesting pat- tern in the use of CUPs. Among communities that allowed SSSFs in industrial districts only, the facilities were fre- quently allowed only as conditional uses. Among com- munities that permitted SSSFs in commercial and indus- trial zones, the SSSFs were allowed by right in industrial zones (and sometimes less restrictive commercial zones), but, in more restrictive commercial zones, the facilities needed a CUP. Finally, in communities that allowed SSSFs 4. Cornwell, Self -Service Storage, 12-13. 5. Ibid., 12. �J U 0 i 0 in residential zones through the CUP process, they were often permitted as of right in commercial and industrial •districts, or at least in less restrictive commercial districts and industrial districts. This pattern indicates a certain evolution in SSSF regu- lations. As the facilities become more widely understood and accepted, they are allowed in more restrictive zones. As specific requirements for the facilities are developed, the necessity for the CUP process, in many cases, is elimi- nated. Conversely, in communities allowing SSSFs only in industrial areas, the developments might be relatively recent phenomena without direct ordinance language to regulate them; hence the CUP is necessary in order to review the new development. • INAPPROPRIATE REGULATIONS MEAN PROBLEMS Of the 269 communities that continue to zone SSSFs as if they were warehouses, 72 reported problems with their regulations. Most of these problems stem from the lack of specific standards for SSSFs. A few planners, like the community development coor- dinator for Plymouth, Minnesota, said that the city re- ceives an inordinate number of variance requests from SSSF developers due to requirements in the city's ordi- nance that just didn t make sense when applied to SSSFs. Many more comments were received about how badly suited warehouse regulations are for SSSF developments. Problems range from requirements for loading facilities applied to single -story SSSFs to a parking requirement of Above right, visibility from the road and a good sign are important parts of SSSF advertising. Effective landscaping and the decorative block wall add to the facility's appeal. Below, if regulated the same as warehouses, SSSFs can end up looking like industrial uses. It is highly unlikely that an SSSF that looks like this could be accepted in a commercial or residential district. • 0 one space per employee —a common requirement for warehouses —which for an SSSF would mean, in most cases, provision of only one space. In these cases SSSF owners and developers shoulder the burden of complying with regulations that are inappropri- ate for the use of their property. In addition, their busi- ness is labeled a "warehouse" with its connotation of "in- dustrial type use:' Whenever zoning regulations do not fit the use to which they are applied, such problems will occur. These comments reflect the need for specific SSSF standards that take into account their particular charac- teristics. Such regulations would also help make these developments more compatible with nonindustrial uses and facilitate their movement into light commercial and even residential districts where they would be closer to their users. Several respondents indicated that, in fact, their com- munities were beginning to realize the benefit of separate SSSF standards: We recognize the need for these uses near multiple -family districts. [Because of] this, plus the fact that they are low - traffic generators, relatively unobtrusive, etc, we have started the practice of permitting them in non-C-3 districts with PUDs, which regulate [them like a special use]."b Furthermore, if specific development or performance standards were applied, most of the additional problems that communities raise would be solved. "In rezoning hearings where miniwarehouses are the proposed use, there has been expressed concerns of traffic activity, light- ing, hours of operation, and aesthetics."' Some of the respondents to APAs survey, like the Lawrenceville, Georgia, Planning, Zoning, and Inspec- tions Director, said they would like to regulate SSSFs separately and more appropriately, but needed some guidelines. Toward that end, Part 2 of this report examines standards used by communities that regulate SSSFs as sep- arate developments from warehouses. It will focus on the most common problems communities must deal with — appearance, location, and parking. 6. Zoning Administrator, Springfield, Missouri. 7.

Entrance width to be a minimum of forty (40') feet. Recommend extending curb and gutter along Stickley Drive. Provisions must be incorporated into plans to prevent vehicles from development from parking on right-of-way. Sanitation Authority - No comment. Stephens City Fire Company - No objection. Fire Inspector - Additional hydrants will be required along Route 1012 and on the property to conform with Frederick County Chapter 10. This will be reviewed on the site plan and construction drawings. Inspections Department - This request shall comply to Use Group "S", Storage Uses, Section 310.0 of the BOCA National Building Code 1987. Planning and Zoning - The site in question is adjacent to land containing the supermarket and the motel. Land across Stickley Drive is zoned B-2. In general, some B-3 uses can be expected in interchange areas. Such uses should be expected to the rear of or beyond retail areas. B-3 zoning can potentially allow wholesale businesses and warehouses, laundries, motor vehicle sales or service, construction material supply businesses, and other businesses. Such uses would probably generate less traffic than the retail uses currently allowed. Some concerns should be expressed for the residential uses in the vicinity to the southeast. However, a limited area of B-3 zoning would appear to be appropriate at this location. Page 2 Rezoning #019-88 Willis White STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: Approval.
