MINOR ZONING AMENDMENTS
NOVEMBER 1995
WHEREAS, the Saint Paul Planning Commission has determined that considering and
recommending monthly zoning amendments to the Mayor and City Council is the most
desirable way to keep the zoning code as cunent as possible; and
WHEREAS, the Zoning Committee of the Saint Paul Planning Commission held a public
hearing on proposed minor zoning amendments concerning brew on premises stores in
community business zoning districts, recycling processing centers in heavy industrial zoning
districts, maintenance easements for accessory structures in rear yards, regulation of garage
heights, and update zoning code language to reflect new staffing responsibilities, at its
November 20, 1995 meeting; and
WHEREAS, the Saint Paul Planning Commission has deternuned:
1. That the number of real estate descriptions affected by the amendments renders the
obtaining of written consent impractical;
2. That a survey of an area in excess of 40 acres has been made;
3. That a determination has been made that the proposed amendments to the Zoning,
Code are related to the overall needs of the communiry, to the exis6ng land use, and
to plans for future land use; and
4. That pursuant to State Statutes proper notice of the hearing was given in the Saint
Paul Pioneer Press on October 27, November 3, and November 10, 1995.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Saint Paul Planning Commission
recommends approvai of the zoning code amendments in the "Minor Zoning Amendments
NOVEMBER 1995" study pertaining to brew on premises stores in community business
zoning districts, recycling processing centers in heavy industrial zoning districts, maintenance
easements for accessory structures in rear yards, regulation of garage heights, and update
zoning code language to reflect new staffing responsibiliries, and directs the Planning
Administrator to forward the study and this resolution to the Mayor and City Council for
