Background
Public Storage currently operates a self-storage facility at 11421 Ulysses Street NE. This facility is older and utilizes drive-up, non-climate controlled units. There are 363 units in the existing facility. Public Storage has decided to purchase two lots that are adjacent to their current facility to construct two new climate controlled, single story buildings with units accessible from inside the building only. The two new buildings will have 1,120 units between them. A preliminary plat for this project was approved by the City Council in January 2020, and in January of 2021, an extension was granted on the approval of the preliminary plat and conditional use permit. At this time, Public Storage is moving through the site plan approval and building permit approval phase, and needs to final plat the property in order to start work.
The final plat, to be known as Public Storage Central First Addition, combines two parcels to be used as one lot. This combination and plat is required as one of the parcels is currently an outlot. Building permits cannot be issued for any building on an outlot.
Park dedication will be required for the one lot that is being created. Commercial park dedication is based on acreage and the rate for this commercial use is $8,704 per acre. The new site is 7.41 acres so a total park dedication payment of $64,497 is due prior to the release of the final plat mylars for recording purposes at Anoka County.
The driveway access to the existing building is currently owned by the City. It was purchased as a part of the Ulysses Street project to provide access to the site. The City will deed the parcel that the access is on to the applicant via ordinance.
The final plat is consistent with the approved preliminary plat, Resolution No. 20-04.
