Background/Staff Comments

Based on two presentations to the Board of Mayor and Aldermen and Franklin Municipal Planning Commission Members, a draft Ordinance has been prepared regarding self-storage uses within commercially zoned districts.  The changes proposed would:

1.                     Allow self-storage as a use in General Commercial (GC) and Specific Development Variety (SD-X) zoned properties.

2.                     Clarify language regarding visibility of storage unit doors.

3.                     Establish a threshold for an internal mix of ground-floor commercial uses along major commercial and mixed-use corridors within the City.
