[OMS_MANAGERS] City Resolution to Stop Walmart???

[Dan Fleishman]

Angie,

 

Stayton's Land Use and Development Code contains the following language:


 

17.20.200             COMMERCIAL DESIGN STANDARDS

1.      PURPOSE. The purpose of the commercial standards to ensure that
the public health, safety and general welfare are protected and the
general interest of the public is served. The standards provide for
originality, flexibility, and innovation in site planning and
development including architecture, landscaping, parking design and
enhancement of the special characteristics that make Stayton a unique
place to live.  The standards of this section apply to all types of
non-residential development and to any building with a mix of
non-residential and residential uses, except in the Downtown zones,
where the standards of Section 17.20.220 apply. (Ord. 898, August 20,
2007) (Amended Ord. 902, May 7, 2008)

2.      SIZE RESTRICTIONS.

a.       All retail stores are limited to 45,000 square feet of gross
floor area. (Amended Ord. 949, April 17, 2013)

b.      Malls are limited to 100,000 square feet of gross floor area
with no retail store exceeding 30,000 square feet. (Amended Ord. 949,
April 17, 2013)

c.       A mall that is larger than 30,000 square feet gross floor area
shall not be located on a lot that is contiguous with or directly across
a street from an existing mall that is larger than 30,000 square feet
gross floor area.

 

Prior to the April 17 amendments, the individual store size was 30,000
sq ft and the malls were limited to 80,000 sq ft.

 

These restrictions were enacted about 10 years ago.

Angi,

 

Arcata, CA. has an ordinance (at least they did when I lived there) in
place that does not allow the establishment of "big box" stores such as
walmart.  Astoria may have a similar ordinance in place.  

 

Best of luck as you all try to ward off the beast!

 

Cheers,

Hello, 

  

At some point I recall hearing someone within our network mention I
believe it was a city ordinance that could be established to ward off
Walmart.  If any of you recall what that is or where we could find it
please let me know.  The citizens of Sherwood found out last week that
Walmart is planning on closing a deal here in Sherwood next month. 

  

We have many, many people working to fight this before it's too late and
would love whatever strategies any of you may know of to help us do so. 

  

Thank you,
