Summary

The Lancaster City Planning Commission voted to recommend a zoning and zoning-map amendment to allow larger, multi-story interior-access self-storage in parts of the Centimeters (C-3) district, subject to tightened eligibility: a 3to5-acre parcel band and limits tied to direct street access.

The Lancaster City Planning Commission voted to recommend to City Council a zoning map and text amendment to allow larger, multi-story, primarily interior-access self-storage facilities in portions of the cityindustrial/commercial (Centimeters) zoning district, with new conditions intended to limit where the use can be implemented.

The amendment was brought by a development team for a planned three-story, roughly 120,000-square-foot, climate-controlled self-storage facility on a parcel with constrained street access at Dillardville Road (unit B of a planned community). The applicant and design/build partner presented prototype facades and said modern demand favors taller, interior-access buildings rather than single-story, drive-up units.
